Question

1.) what are the condition for declaration of martial law?

2.) what are the causes or reason for declaration of martial law?

3.) duration of martial law?

Answer 1

1. Martial law is the system of rules that takes effect when the military takes control of the normal administration of justice.

2. Usually martial law reduces some of the personal rights ordinarily granted to the citizen, limits the length of the trial processes, and prescribes more severe penalties than ordinary law. In many states martial law prescribes the death penalty for certain crimes, even if ordinary law does not contain that crime or punishment in its system.

Originally martial law was imposed during wars or occupations to let the government control population more effectively in spite of heightened unrest. Nowadays it is most commonly used by authoritarian governments to enforce their rule, for example after coup d'état (Thailand 2006), when threatened by popular protests (PRC 1989), or to crack down on the opposition (Poland 1981). Martial law can also be declared in cases of major natural disasters, however most countries use a different legal construct like "state of emergency".

In many countries martial law imposes particular rules, one of which is curfew. Often, under this system, the administration of justice is left to a military tribunal, called a court-martial. The suspension of the writ of habeas corpus is likely to occur.

3. Duration of Martial Law lasts until the government operations comes to normal.

Answer 2

In a well and honarably governed country, the declaration of martial law would be a last resort and only should be implemented when the breakdown of law and order has become so pervasive that its the only solution. That having been said, in our current situation, with our increasingly corrupt goverment, any excuse is likely to be used to implement martial law. As for the duration, under a good and honest administration, martial law would last for no longer than neccessary to restore law and order. In a corrupt situation, its just another name for a dictatorship.

Answer 3

Most generally it would be when there is an emergency, which could be civil, natural or international in nature.

Causes generally have included floods, tornados, rioting, strikes and other similar situations.

Usually martial law is declared by an official such as a governor or the president and will be for the duration of the emergency.
