  1. Legal doctrine

    dablink Principle of law redirects here. For other uses, see law principle . A legal doctrine is a framework, set of rules, procedural steps, or test, often established through precedent in the common law , through which judgments can be determined in a given legal case. A doctrine comes about when a judge makes a ruling where a process is outlined and applied, and allows for it to be equally applied to like cases. When enough judges make use of the process soon enough it becomes established as the de facto method of deciding like situations.

  1. Doctrine of indivisibility

    Multiple issues context October 2009 orphan March 2007 unreferenced March 2007 The doctrine of indivisibility or indivisibility doctrine was a legal doctrine in United States copyright law , which held that a copyright was a single, indivisible right that its owner could only Assignment law assign as a whole. The doctrine was founded upon the policy concern that a defendant alleged to have infringed a single work might find himself facing claims from multiple plaintiff s, all claiming copyright in that same work. Despite the indivisibility doctrine, a copyright holder could still effectively assign certain rights. The assignees of those rights were held to be mere licensees. The result of the doctrine could yield a harsh result for an exclusive licensee in a work. If a third party Copyright infringement infringed the work, the copyright holder had no motivation to file suit the work was no longer marketable. So courts allowed exclusive licensees to compulsively join the copyright holder as a plaintiff in such suits. Non exclusive licensees could not forcefully join copyright holders, on the theory that in those cases, the work was still marketable and the copyright holder therefore had an interest in protecting his rights. In the case Dark Passage Goodis v. United Artists Television, Inc. , 425 Federal Reporter F.2d 397, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit held that the doctrine of indivisibility could not operate to wholly deprive an author of his copyright when a mere licensee secured a copyright in a collective work but the author never secured a separate copyright on his own. The doctrine of indivisibility was expressly eliminated in the Copyright Act of 1976 . Assignees of rights in a copyrighted work now have standing to directly file suit against infringers.

  1. Calvo Doctrine

    The Calvo Doctrine is a foreign policy doctrine which holds that jurisdiction in international investment disputes lies with the country in which the investment is located. The Calvo Doctrine thus proposed to prohibit diplomatic protection or armed intervention before local resources were exhausted. An investor, under this doctrine, has no recourse but to use the local court s, rather than those of their home country. As a policy prescription, Calvo Doctrine is an expression a legal nationalism. The principle, named after Carlos Calvo historian Carlos Calvo , an Argentina Argentine jurist , has been applied throughout Latin America and other areas of the world. The doctrine arose from Calvos s ideas, expressed in his Derecho internacional te rico y pr ctico de Europa y Am rica Paris , 1868 greatly expanded in subsequent editions, which were published in French language French . Calvo justified his doctrine as necessary to prevent the abuse of the jurisdiction of weak nations by more powerful nations. It has since been incorporated as a part of several Latin American constitution s, as well as many other treaty treaties , statute s, and contract s. The doctrine is used chiefly in concession contract concession contracts , the clause attempting to give local courts final jurisdiction and to obviate any appeal to diplomatic intervention. The Drago Doctrine is a narrower application of Calvo s wider principle.

  1. Doctrine of chances

    dablink For the 18th century book on probability theory, see The Doctrine of Chances . Evidence law In law , the doctrine of chances is a rules of evidence rule of evidence law evidence that allows evidence to show that it is unlikely a defendant would be repeatedly, innocently involved in similar, suspicious circumstances. Normally, under Federal Rules of Evidence Federal Rule of Evidence 404, evidence of other crimes, wrongs, or acts is not admissible to prove the character of a person in order to show action in conformity therewith. Using the doctrine of chances allows a prosecutor to admit evidence of prior accidents that can persuade a jury that prior incidents are so similar that it is very improbable that the case at bar is actually accidental. The doctrine of chances was first developed by English courts in the case George Joseph Smith Rex v. Smith , 11 Cr. App. R. 229, 84 L.J.K.B. 2153 1915 , better known as the brides in the bath murder . In this case the defendant was accused of murdering his wife by drowning her in a bath. The defendant claimed that his wife had fainted in the bath. The prosecutor sought to include evidence in the trial that the defendant s two previous wives had both died in the same way. The evidence was allowed. References United States v.

  1. Overbreadth doctrine

    In American jurisprudence , the overbreadth doctrine is primarily concerned with facial challenge s to laws under the First Amendment to the United States Constitution First Amendment . American courts have recognized several exceptions to the speech protected by the First Amendment for example, obscenity , fighting words , and libel or defamation , and states therefore have some latitude to regulate unprotected speech. A statute doing so is overly broad hence, overbreadth if, in proscribing unprotected speech, it also proscribes protected speech. Because an overly broad law may deter constitutionally protected speech, the overbreadth doctrine allows a party to whom the law may constitutionally be applied to challenge the statute on the ground that it violates the First Amendment rights of others. See, e.g., Board of Trustees of State Univ. of Board of Trustees, State Univ. of N. Y. v. Fox N.Y. v. Fox, 492 U.S. 469, 483 1989 , and R. A. V. v. City of St. Paul R. A. V. v. City of St. Paul, 505 U.S. 377 1992 . Overbreadth is closely related to Void for vagueness vagueness if a prohibition is expressed in a way that is too unclear for a person to reasonably know whether or not their conduct falls within the law, then to avoid the risk of legal consequences they often stay far away from anything that could possibly fit the uncertain wording of the law.

  1. Rescue doctrine

    Tort law In the USA, the rescue doctrine of the law of torts holds that if a tortfeasor creates a circumstance that places the tort victim in danger, the tortfeasor is liable not only for the harm caused to the victim, but also the harm caused to any person injured in an effort to rescue that victim. This doctrine was originally created in case law by Wagner v. International Railway ref http www.invispress.com law torts wagner.html Wagner v. International Railway ref , Case citation 232 N.Y. 176 1926 , in which Justice Benjamin Cardozo Cardozo stated Danger invites rescue. The cry of distress is the summons to relief ... The emergency begets the man. The wrongdoer may not have foreseen the coming of a deliverer. He is accountable as if he had. Essentially it means that the rescuer can recover damages from a defendant when the rescuer is injured rescuing someone. The defendant is usually negligent in causing the accident to occur. Other cases have occurred where the plaintiff is injured rescuing the defendant and is able to collect damages. In Wagner v. International Railway , riders on the defendant s trains were allowed to walk between cars while the train was moving. In one incident, a rider fell through the cars. The plaintiff, trying to help the fallen rider, was injured himself. The court found the defendant liable because of negligence to allow riders to walk between cars while the train was moving. Essentially, in its pure form the Rescue Doctrine boils down to 4 main elements all of which must be met in order to bring it to bear for the person asserting its privilege. There must be peril or the appearance of peril to a third party, caused by the defendant. That peril or appearance of peril must be imminent A reasonable person would recognize the peril or appearance of peril and the plaintiff must also have actually recognized it. The plaintiff must have exercised reasonable care in effecting the rescue. References reflist Category Tort law Category Legal doctrines ...   more details

It does not apply to cable TV , cable radio , satellite TV , satellite radio , or other forms of electronic media, because although they also use publicly owned airwaves, these are subscription services which the listener or viewer must explicitly request, and are subject to conditional access , analog scrambler scrambling , or digital encryption .

The Regulations specified that the Commissioner s powers were exercisable by, inter alia the Minister of Works and Planning.
