I don't think English law is messed up, it's just become needlessly complicated.\nyou want weird you should hear these.\nIn California it is illegal to drive more than two thousand sheep down Hollywood boulevard at once.\nIn Washington, it is illegal to have sex with a virgin under any circumstances, including wedding night.

Our legal system is flawed from square one. An oath is given to uphold THE LAW. \n\nTRUTH and JUSTICE DON'T MATTER - ONLY GAMESMANSHIP, PROCEDURES and THE LAW.\n\nIs it any wonder that our system SUCKS so badly?

No law is easy to understand.  What you have to take into consideration with International Law is that you have so many countries giving input that it has so many cultural biases that it is even more confusing.

Yes, but it depends on what you are talking about. If you don't get satisfaction then approach your local member of parliament either for the state or federal government and explain the problem. You can make official complaints but I would go to a seperate police station to the one you were having trouble with. Remember thought that the police are neutral and may not see things your way, they have to enforce the law not your perception of it.

Outdated laws and political correctness have entirely and absolutely nothing to do with each other!\n\nOutdated laws exist because they are rarely if ever utilised and the body of law is so vast that they are probably long forgotten... \n\nWhen a situation arises that they may come into play and are now seen to be unjust then the government will usually legislate to amend and/or overrule the prior law in that area...\n\nLaw is an evolving process that is in a state of continual change... it just takes time to get to all the changes that need to occur and in law that time is often measures in hundreds of years not one or two...

Can you be more specific in what you are looking for?\n\nFor example are you looking for laws that are pertinent only to England?

Yes! Give his deatails to your local police station. In the United Kingdom this is road rage which is an idictable offence, and although the Scottich law was renowned throughout the world and being just, these day we seem to follow what the U.S.does, so if it is acrime here it must surely be a crime in America, and judging from the way your question was written, you are in America

This has been a good question for a long time. A verbal contract is binding (If both sides agree what was said) so I cannot see why this is not true in house buying. \nIt is in Scotland so it should be the same in England too.\n\nWhat it needs is for someone who suffers financial loss (through someone offering and then pulling out, or someone not selling after accepting an offer) to take it as a test case to the courts. Or the European courts. \n\nIt is totally wrong that they English system allows it to happen. The system should allow us to sue the pants off the person responsible for making the deal fall through. \n\nI think the solicitors and legal teams are a bunch of leeches too, by the way. The British conveyancing system sucks. Big time.\n\nHope that helps and good luck!

What kind of jibberish is this? and in what state is it a law? I think that it is sick, really.

Not in the slightest...\n\nFor example, the government has failed to pass legislation they were working on last year to remove the 'proof of rape' requirements. If you are unaware of what I am referring to: the current law is that a woman must produce 3 MALE witnesses in order to prove she was raped.\n\nInsane and absolutely ludicrous.

Firstly I just wanted to say that clarity within the law is a pre requisite of a succesful legal system, as for detail - I personally think that laws should not be made so detailed as to exclude potential offenders on technicalities as has been seen in the past. I know it seems like there are a lot of new laws coming out but you will find that the majority of this is just consolidating many old ones in line with the reccomendations of the law commission.\n\nI think we need to remember that the law needs to change in line with the changes we see in our society and as such only those who are out of touch with society should be confused by the law, most people instinctively know what is wrong and what is right and just go about their daily business.

Similar systems are used on other countries as well.\n\nWhere there a multiple possible interpretations, the court should choose the one that makes sense given other laws. This could be to avoid absurdity, or to avoid conflict with other higher laws.

I find it completely the opposite way around. What country are you in, I'm in England, and maybe it varies from country to country

You've quoted only secondary sources.   It seems the law changed on 13 Oct. 2003.  You should consult the primary source; the statute that changed the law.
