EFA Submission to A-G Dept: Proposed telecommunications criminal offences As this offence requires the prosecution to prove intention to induce a false belief that an explosive, or a dangerous or harmful substance or thing, has been or will be left in any place, it appears to be sufficiently narrowly tailored to serve a legitimate end without resulting in broad restrictions on speech. These proposed new offences prohibit using a carriage service, to make to another person, a threat to kill a person or a threat to cause serious harm to a person with the intention to intimidate or instil fear in the person to whom the threat is made that it will be carried out. We note that it is not proposed to change the physical elements of this offence, nor the fault elements of intention and recklessness that are required to be proved, which are the same as those applicable to menacing and harassing use. www.efa.org.au /Publish/efasubm-agd-teleco.html

Criminal Law -Common Offences Its actus reus is itself as the consequence by the 'but for' test, the objective test; it requires this to be coupled with the mens rea in the form of intention or subjective recklessness: Roberts (where intentionally or subjectively recklessly there was unlawful force, which objectively occasioned the bodily harm). In both of these offences the mens rea is intention: R -v- Spratt 1990, or by subjective recklessness: R -v- Savage 1991 was deliberate unreasonable risk taking, and R-v- Parmenter 1991 : not if the risk is obvious but if malice was involved. Mens rea is the fault-level of the accused in the act or mission; it is often included in the definition of serious crimes e.g., 'with malice aforethought'; it is 'the guilty mind' by intention, recklessness, or gross-negligence. www.geocities.com /crmlw

The North Carolina State Bar Thus, a lawyer who threatens criminal prosecution for the sole purpose of harassing the other party or who threatens criminal prosecution with no intention of bringing charges is engaging in unethical conduct. A lawyer shall not present, participate in presenting, or threaten to present criminal charges to obtain an advantage in a civil matter unless the criminal charges are related to the civil matter and the lawyer reasonably believes the charges to be well grounded in fact and warranted by law [revision in italics]. A relationship between the civil claim and the threatened criminal charges may also insulate the lawyer and the client from the criminal charge of compounding a crime according to the ABA opinion. www.ncbar.com /eth_op/eth_articles_threaten.asp

Bouvier's Law Dictionary, 1856 Edition - Letter T In criminal pleadings, it is requisite, generally, to show both the day and the year on which the offence was committed; but the indictment will be good, if the day and year can be collected from the whole statement, though they be not expressly averred. The court of criminal sessions for the city and county of Philadelphia have decided that in the case of a man who found a quantity of lumber, commonly called a raft, floating on the river Delaware and fastened to the shore, and sold it, to another person, at so low a price. A constructive felonious taking occurs when, under pretence of a contract, the thief obtains the felonious possession of goods; as, when under the pretence of hiring, he had a felonious intention at the time of the pretended contract, to convert the property to his own use. www.constitution.org /bouv/bouvier_t.htm   (15902 words)

Criminal Intent The type of required intent varies with the crime; however, some form of intent or criminal negligence must be proven in every crime. General intent requires that the accused merely intended to commit the prohibited act or omission even if they had no intention or knowledge of violating the law. Though only the intent to commit the prohibited act is needed in general intent crimes, a designated state of mind is required for specific intent crimes. www.rusd.k12.ca.us /historyday/earhart/Drew/criminal_intent.htm   (398 words)

State v. Cook, A-02-325 (not designated for permanent publication) 52, 642 N.W.2d 517 (2002) (when sufficiency of evidence as to criminal intent is questioned, direct expression of intention by actor is not required; intent with which act is committed involves mental process and may be inferred from words and acts of defendant and from circumstances surrounding incident). When reviewing a criminal conviction for sufficiency of the evidence to sustain the conviction, the relevant question for an appellate court is whether, after viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution, any rational trier of fact could have found the essential elements of the crime beyond a reasonable doubt. In imposing a sentence, a sentencing judge should consider the defendant's age, mentality, education, experience, and social and cultural background, as well as his or her past criminal record or law-abiding conduct, motivation for the offense, nature of the offense, and the amount of violence involved in the commission of the crime. www.nol.org /home/ncpa/ctopinio/A02-325.htm   (2153 words)

portland imc - 2002.12.01 - 9-11 Criminal Negligence -- Part 2 of 2 Although there may be the possibilities of additional wrong-doing or criminal intention, this criminal negligence and the deception of the American people involved in their cover-up of that negligence are already clear from the public record. This essay presents some of the evidence that supports the conclusion that the Bush administration is guilty of criminal negligence in their failure to protect us from the attacks of 9-11. These conclusions and the evidence that supports them provide a sufficient basis for accusing the Bush administration of criminal negligence in their failure to protect us from the attacks of 9-11. portland.indymedia.org /en/2002/12/36392.shtml   (1553 words)

Shofar FTP Archives: imt/nca/nca-02/nca-02-15-criminality-01-03 Even if they had the intention of not participating in criminal efforts, or hindering them, this can not eliminate their responsibility." (R.G. 58, 401 of the 24.10.24.) Organizations with criminal ends are everywhere regarded as in the nature of criminal conspiracies, and their criminality is judged by the application of conspiracy principles. The German courts in dealing with criminal organizations proceeded on the theory that all members were held together by a common plan in which each one participated even though at various levels. Section 128 of the Criminal Code of 1871 is especially pertinent. www.vex.net /~nizkor/ftp.cgi/imt/nca/ftp.py?imt/nca/nca-02/nca-02-15-criminality-01-03   (1553 words)

eircom net Ireland-International / Irish news headlines from leading Irish newspapers THE Supreme Court yesterday rejected an application to have time limits imposed on the retrospective period for which the Criminal Assets Bureau can make court applications for 'freezing orders' in respect of assets which it believes are the proceeds of crime. Giving his judgment, with which the other four judges agreed, Mr Justice Hugh Geoghegan said he was in complete agreement with submissions on behalf of CAB to the effect that the Act would be useless and unworkable if those situations were so and it could not have been the intention of the Oireachtas. If the Statute of Limitations challenge had been successful, it could have severely limited the Criminal Asset Bureau's ability to look for freezing orders for assets allegedly involved in crime going back over the years. home.eircom.net /content/unison/national/5058178?view=Eircomnet   (540 words)

wave theory of cause of crime Crime waves, produced by any feeling, emotion, desire, intention, deed, act or omission of criminal inclination, are of different potentialities, intensities, frequencies and wavelengths depending upon the nature, quantum, extent and quality of criminality in the criminal feeling etc. As the evil feeling etc. is, so the kind of the released energy would be. Crime waves are both released and caught by criminals at all the levels of human consciousness and even that of unconsciousness-sometimes without interference of any cosmic factor other than the crime waves themselves, and tread on the sky as cosmic-cause three of crime causation. As input and output are correlative, counter-directional crime waves in the form of criminal desire are emitted by the soul; message from the criminal soul is rebound to the criminal mind which prepares the plans and manner in which the crime is to be committed. www.geocities.com /helocosmos/My_page.html   (604 words)
