Do you think that democracy is compromised when it's too expensive or burdensome to take a case to court?

Question

Do you think that the legal system should be a place where people are able to settle their disputes and get justice at a reasonable cost and without arbitrary barriers to being heard?
When this doesn't happen, do you think the people who are denied justice become disillusioned? When the confidence in our legal system erodes, what effect does that have on public confidence in the fairness of our system of government?

Answer 1

GREETINGS, YES, it is compromised when you can't have the freedom to take it to court without having to be rich to afford it. Of course they become disillusioned. I know of a woman in my support group that was hurt in a car accident and acquired lymphedema, she is on disability, she cannot afford a good lawyer which is what is needed in the case of a rare disease injury, she got one that took the case pro bono and she didn't get a penny so she is left with a serious lifelong injury and no recourse. People become angry and bitter when there is no justice or they can't afford what they need to just survive, and people begin to become disillusioned with every form of the legal system and govt. There are not very many that think either is fair unless you are the priviledged rich person with alot of clout to influence the decisions so they are fair in your eyes.

Answer 2

I believe you are right. "Justice delayed is justice denied," they say in law circles...

Why do people not vote? Almost everyone I have asked this question has mentioned that "it doesn't change anything." New names, new faces, same old lies and same old policies. People, especially children, become disillusioned even when they see others being denied justice in some way. One thing that being a parent has taught me is that even very young children have a keen sense of justice, and although they feel it most when they are wronged, they also respond to in a negative way when they see injustices dealt to others. Adults are often so jaded by the legal system that many have lost confidence in their abilities to receive any justice, anywhere. The social and economic costs of this failure of the common man and woman to receive justice is reflected in our increasing prison population. America has the largest percentage of its population in prison than ANY OTHER country on Earth.

You do the math...

Answer 3

baby-kisser take the area which fits them. although if M/s Jayalalita might have asked his social gathering guy to renounce if the case could have been purely opposite. the reality of rely is Election cost has declared Mr Chidambaram elected. Now Jayalilta can no longer do something different than to anticipate ideally suited court docket selection and request the court docket to for early listening to.Such political assertion do no longer come below purview of contempt of court docket.
