1.

Коли 13 американських колоній відокремились від Великої Британії після Американської Війни за Незалежність, колоністи прийняли принципи Великої Хартії Вольностей і загального права. Ці принципи стали основою правової системи федерального уряду та всіх штатів США

Англійські колоністи в Америці признавали англійське загальне право як основне до 4 липня 1776 року. Після цієї дати, існуючі правила були збережені, але подальші зміни були внесені в законодавство щойно сформованої американської країни. Загальне право, з його акцентом на правила прийняття закону суддями, продовжує служити і до сих пір.

4. 1) Constituency is an area of the UK for which a representative is elected to the House of Commons.

The UK is divided into areas known as constituencies. They are mostly geographical districts. You live in a constituency and you vote there. You have one vote and you cast it for the person you wish to represent you in Parliament.

Example There are 659 constituencies in the United Kingdom. I know that there were 650 constituencies for the 2010 general elections in the UK.

 

2) Court is a place where law cases are held.

People come to court to solve their disagreements. And courts decide what should be done about them. They decide if a person committed a crime and what punishment should be. They also decide civil cases. There are two courts of trial and two courts of appeal in Great Britain. The courts of trial are the Magistrates’ Court and the Crown court. Two courts of appeal are the Court of Appeal and the House of Lords. The Magistrates’ court is the lower court of trial and it deals with the summary offences. More serious criminal offences go to the Crown Court.

Example I know that civil cases are dealt with in County Court in Great Britain.

Співбесіда іноземною мовою за темою.

The political and state system of Great Britain. Державний та політичний устрій Великої Британії.

Great Britain is a unitary state and a constitutional monarchy. State organs of the UK include the monarchy, the legislative, executive and judicial organs of Government.

The monarchy is the most ancient institution in the UK. It is hereditary. The monarch, Queen Elizabeth II, signs international agreements, gives the royal assent to a bill, appoints all the ministers and Prime Minister. But, by tradition, the monarch acts only on advice of her ministers.

Parliament is a legislative organ of the United Kingdom, which makes law. It has two chambers (houses): the House of Lords and the House of Commons. The House of Lords consists of the Lords Temporal and the Lords Spiritual. It is presided over by the Lord Chancellor who is the chairman of the House. The House of Commons is an elected and representative body. Members of Parliament are elected at a general election that are held every 5 years. The main functions of Parliament are: examining the work of Government, controlling finance, protecting the individual and hearing appeals.

The executive power belongs to the Government. The Government consists of the ministers appointed by the Crown on the recommendation of the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister is the leader of the political party which has the majority of seats in the House of Commons. The Prime Minister appoints ministers to head the Governmental departments and forms the Cabinet of Ministers.

The United Kingdom has no Ministry of Justice. The courts themselves, the Lord Chancellor and the Home Secretary are responsible for the administration of the judicial system.
