ADMINISTRATIVE LAW PAPER CODE- 801 TOPIC- WRITS Constitutional Philosophy of Writs
CLASS- B.A.LL.B VIIIth SEMESTER SUBJECT- ADMINISTRATIVE LAW PAPER CODE- 801 TOPIC- WRITS Constitutional philosophy of Writs: A person whose right is infringed by an arbitrary administrative action may approach the Court for appropriate remedy. The Constitution of India, under Articles 32 and 226 confers writ jurisdiction on Supreme Court and High Courts, respectively for enforcement/protection of fundamental rights of an Individual. Writ is an instrument or order of the Court by which the Court (Supreme Court or High Courts) directs an Individual or official or an authority to do an act or abstain from doing an act. Understanding of Article 32 Article 32 is the right to constitutional remedies enshrined under Part III of the constitution. Right to constitutional remedies was considered as a heart and soul of the constitution by Dr. Bhim Rao Ambedkar. Article 32 makes the Supreme court as a protector and guarantor of the Fundamental rights. Article 32(1) states that if any fundamental rights guaranteed under Part III of the Constitution is violated by the government then the person has right to move the Supreme Court for the enforcement of his fundamental rights. Article 32(2) gives power to the Supreme court to issue writs, orders or direction. It states that the Supreme court can issue 5 types of writs habeas corpus, mandamus, prohibition, quo warranto, and certiorari, for the enforcement of any fundamental rights given under Part III of the constitution. The Power to issue writs is the original jurisdiction of the court. Article 32(3) states that parliament by law can empower any of courts within the local jurisdiction of India to issue writs, order or directions guaranteed under Article 32(2). -

Judicial review of administrative action is about setting the boundaries of government power.1 It is about ensuring government officials obey the law and act within their prescribed powers.2 15.2 This chapter discusses access to the courts to challenge administrative action or decision making.3 It is about judicial review, rather than merits review by administrators or tribunals. It does not focus on judicial review of primary legislation 1 ‘The position and constitution of the judicature could not be considered accidental to the institution of federalism: for upon the judicature rested the ultimate responsibility for the maintenance and enforcement of the boundaries within which government power might be exercised and upon that the whole system was constructed’: R v Kirby; Ex parte Boilermakers’ Society of Australia (1956) 94 CLR 254, 276 (Dixon CJ, McTiernan, Fullagar and Kitto JJ). 2 ‘The reservation to this Court by the Constitution of the jurisdiction in all matters in which the named constitutional writs or an injunction are sought against an officer of the Commonwealth is a means of assuring to all people affected that officers of the Commonwealth obey the law and neither exceed nor neglect any jurisdiction which the law confers on them’: Plaintiff S157/2002 v Commonwealth (2003) 211 CLR 476, [104] (Gaudron, McHugh, Gummow, Kirby and Hayne JJ). -

Prior to the Kline decision, a husband was afforded a remedy against his wife's paramour for being the partner in her adulterous acts.2 The court has now reversed its position due to the anachronistic policy underlying this tort,3 its incompatibility with today's sense of per sonal and sexual freedom of women,4 and its inherent violation of Maryland's Equal Rights Amendment. -

Questions and Answers Regarding the Canonical Process for the Resolution of Allegations of Sexual Abuse of Minors by Priests and Deacons
Questions and Answers Regarding the Canonical Process for the Resolution of Allegations of Sexual Abuse of Minors by Priests and Deacons Q: Does the Church have its own laws against the sexual abuse of minors by members of the clergy? A: Yes, the Church has long had laws on the books that address this crime. Even before the majority of the Church laws were collected into a single code of laws (in 1917 and in 1983), sins against the Sixth Commandment with a minor were also considered criminal acts. From 1917 onwards, the Church promulgated concise legal norms that stated this and that imposed penalties on clergy that offended in this terrible way. Q: Which Church authority is responsible for addressing these offenses? A: In April 2001, Pope John Paul II issued a law stating that, from then on, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF) in Rome, headed at the time by Cardinal Ratzinger, the future Pope Benedict XVI, would have sole Church authority over this crime. The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith is one of the offices that assist the Pope in fulfilling his mission as Supreme Pastor of the Catholic Church. Prior to 2001, the crime was generally to be dealt with on the local level by the diocesan bishop. The CDF would have been involved if the offense had occurred on the occasion of the celebration of the Sacrament of Penance (confession). Otherwise, the case would have gone for a second hearing (appeal from the diocese) to the Congregation for Clergy or the Tribunal of the Roman Rota, offices that assist the Pope, depending on how the allegation had been resolved on the local level. -
Functus Officio and the Piwrogative Writ of Prohibition
FUNCTUS OFFICIO AND THE PIWROGATIVE WRIT OF PROHIBITION By Ross A. SUNDBERG* An imaginary system cunningly planned for the evil purpose of thwarting justice and maximizing fruitless litigation would copy the major features of the extraordinary remedies. For the purpose of creating treacherous procedural snares and preventing or delaying the decision of cases on their merits, such a scheme would insist upon a plurality of remedies . .l There would appear to have been a deal of unnecessary litigation occasioned by the very fine line separating the stages at which the writs of certiorari and prohibition are properly sought. The objection in point of plurality of remedies is supported by the law of functus oficio-that despite the many points of law common to certiorari and prohibition each is available at a different stage in proceedings. The scene for the discussion that follows can be set very simply: Once proceedings have begun in the tribunal, but not until they have begun, prohibition may be obtained at any time until they are finished. if the proceedings have ended, the lower tribunal is said to be functus officio and prohibition ceases to be available.2 Is this a rehement that should be retained? Is it likely to result in many cases failing to reach the merits? Have the courts done anything to minimize the procedural difficulties that could arise from the distinction? These are some of the questions to which attention should be directed. The writs have the following points in common: historically they were used to control inferior courts; they are available in respect of a body with power to determine questions affecting the rights of subjects and having an obligation to act judicially; neither goes to an administrative tribunal, or so it is said;3 they are available only when the power to determine is de- rived from statute or subordinate legislation; the rules as to standing are the same; neither writ lies against the Crown. -
Policy Manual Archdiocese Archdiocese of Grouard-Mclennan
Policy Manual Archdiocese of Grouard---McLennan-McLennan POLICIES AND PROCEDURES ARCHDIOCESE OF GROUARD-MCLENNAN Preamble What you are holding is the Policies and Procedures Manual of the Archdiocese of Grouard- McLennan. This manual has been put together with a couple of goals in mind: 1. To provide information on the history and development of the Archdiocese, that is not easily found elsewhere; 2. To provide the policies and procedures that pastors, lay pastoral animators, councils and committees may need to follow in their administration and ministry in the Archdiocese. As much as possible, this same information will be available on the Archdiocesan web-site (www.archgm.ca ), but it is found here in a printed format for the benefit of those who do not easily use a computer or have access to one. In selecting policies and procedures, the College of Consultors / Council of Priests has made every effort to include here only those matters which are not adequately found elsewhere in the Code of Canon Law (CGC), or the Canonical and Pastoral Guide for Parishes (CPGP) Canadian Edition 2006, published by Wilson & Lafleur (Montreal). Every parish must have a copy of these two works as well. As further policies and procedures are enacted, or as those found in this manual are amended, the current policies and procedures will be sent to every parish, as well as posted on the Archdiocesan website.

OVERVIEW OF THE PROBLEM In 1984, the Roman Catholic Church began to experience the complex and highly embarrassing problem of clergy sexual miscon- duct in the United States. Within months of the first public case emerging in Lafayette, Louisiana, it was clear that this problem was not geographically isolated, nor a minuscule exception.' In- stances of clergy sexual misconduct surfaced with increasing noto- riety. Bishops, the leaders of the United States Catholic dioceses, were caught off guard. They were unsure of how to deal with spe- cific cases, and appeared defensive when trying to control an ex- panding and uncontrollable problem. -

Norms of the Diocese of Nashville
NORMS OF THE DIOCESE OF NASHVILLE January 1, 2000 DECREE OF PROMULGATION The Diocese of Nashville was established on July 28, 1837. For these past one hundred and sixty two years we have lived and proclaimed the Good News of Jesus Christ by worshiping God in prayer and sacraments, by teaching and preaching the Word of God, and by loving and serving our neighbors. Today we are a fast-growing, ethnically-diverse Catholic community within the thirty-eight counties of Middle Tennessee. We, the people of God of the Diocese of Nashville, stand at the threshold of the Jubilee of the Third Millennium with docility to the Holy Spirit, and we enthusiastically recommit ourselves to the teachings, the values, and the ministry of Jesus Christ. For many years we have effectively identified and successfully addressed our most urgent needs according to the goals, the objectives, and action steps of our Diocesan Strategic Plan. That Plan, now newly-revised, provides us with definition and direction as we enter the new millennium. Likewise, our endeavors are structured and governed by universal Catholic Church law as well as diocesan legislation. Most recently diocesan law was contained in governance documents entitled Order and Values, issued in 1983 and revised in 1992. That version of diocesan legislation has now been revised following extensive review by the Fourth Presbyteral Council. This revision, called Norms of the Diocese of Nashville, presents the current diocesan legislation in a simple format under seven headings: General Norms, The People of God, The Teaching Office of the Church, The Office of Sanctifying in the Church, The Temporal Goods of the Church, Sanctions in the Church, and Processes.
