Legal System Basics: Crash Course Government and Politics #18
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 тра 2015
- This week Craig Benzine takes a first look at the judicial branch. It's pretty easy to forget that the courts, and the laws that come out of them, affect our lives on a daily basis. But how exactly these decisions are made and where each law's jurisdiction starts and ends can get pretty complicated. So complicated in fact that you may want to smash something. But don't worry, Craig will clear the way.

Hi there! I noticed a mistake at 6:17. The judge says "guilty", however parties are not proven "guilty" or "not guilty" in civil cases, only in criminal. In civil cases, the defendant can only be "liable" or "not liable".
Thanks Craig! I've learned more about government and politics in a couple months of your show than 4 years of high school, 4 years of college and 4 years of military pol/mil training
This dude talk hella fast.. can't even take no notes😂
Lashay Little Listening it at .75x can help you take notes better
At first, I wasn't sure I liked Craig Benzine as host of this series of Crash Course, but now I am sure that he is perfect. Keep that eagle in its place Craig!!!
Craig, I'll be honest. I didn't think anyone could fill the CC void of John Green.
As a nerdfighter and an addict of these kinds of videos, I decided to give your series a shot and Sir, GOOD WORK :)
It's great to see you get comfortable in front of the camera and the eagle punches crack me up. Often.
Cheers :)
This guy helped me pass my American government class! Thanks a million. Because I hardly understand the book😭
Eagle punches 3:25 and 7:35; one of these times that Eagle is going to punch back
We have a kind of common law in The Netherlands, too. It's called "jurisprudentie" here. It's basically the same thing. All decisions made by courts in the past which can be used to determine future decisions.
fact: craig doesnt need to have a reason to punch the eagle.
Ikr it is a free country🤓
I call animal cruelty
So did this guy tease John Green's Turtles All The Way Down in 2015, two years before it was released?
2:24 Craig predicted John’s book more than 2 years ago. Nice one
amazing video explained everything I needed! This was my first day in bus law and this guy...!! If you don't understand from him do more research cuz this guy here summarized EVERYTHING!
At [4:52]: You don't just get to argue there was an error below. You also have to show that had the lower court not erred, there's a substantial likelihood the outcome of the case could change to your benefit. If fixing the error won't change the outcome, then it's harmless error and allowed to stand.
Is that a mention of turtles all the way down in 2015? Nice prediction Craig!
This is easily my favorite CC--and the other ones are pretty good, too!
This is very informative. The use of the animations made it all the better. Thank you. 🤝
There really just needs to be a crash course law show
We have common law in france too, we call it "Jurisprudence" ! (I am aware it's an english term too, but it doesn't seem to mean the same in both languages). It doesn't act as actual laws, but they do play a very important role in trials !
Thank you for this video on the court system and how it plays a very important role in our lives the mainly civil court its role if i ever need to file a claim and the others what my next step would be if i loss my case in court appeal. Law writing is interpreted so when we go to read it we are able to understand it .
This was very interesting but god does he speak fast (plus he doesn't articulate so much). I'll have to watch this video a few time to really get it
Tancri Von Bouzin actually, he speaks fairly normally.
Mr.chang cooler I'm having a worse time than when John Greens speaks for instance
Try watching it at 0.5 or 0.75 if you must.
+Tancri Von Bouzin Lots of info. Go back and re-listen.

"turtles all the way down"
Hayoung Park, 🤭 The ’TURTLES’ on Turtle Island ..??🤔
Was he referring to the states/(e)states /the people !?!?
Becca Wells These courts are operating as brokerage house and collecting ROYALTIES from everything copyrighted & Patented-including but limited to our DNA!! That’s my educated guess.
The only BETRAYAL worse than this is that of the father of my children -who sacrificed our family unit to continue operating as a TOOL for these THIEVES!!!!😳😱🤯😭 🤮☠️
@@dorothyhome577 it was just a reference to a book by one of the hosts, calm down
then he says sorry lower courts haha
Moscow Mitch is a turtle. I hate that turtle.
i’m literally never going to forget that elastic pants analogy thankyou
At 6:10 You wouldn't use the term guilty in civil cases. The defendant can only be held liable for damages. Other than that, great video!
i like the bit when he punches the eagle... every time :D
"Turtles all the way down" cracked me up
i think this guy has the most entertaining crash courses
Craig Benzine together with Hank Green is my favorite.
My teacher showed us the crash course series and now everyone in my class is hooked.
Dang your videos are great, CC!
Thank you! This helps me study for my business law exam.
loved this
That "turtles all the way down" joke caught me completely by surprise.
Showed this video to my Law class. The video was very informative. However, the presenter spoke way too fast.
Hey these are actually interesting and useful videos!
A very informative and entertaining video.
WE WANT MORE CRASH COURSE HISTORY!
You guys are awesome. Thank You.
you really save my life a lot of times
Very helpful, very funny. Thanks folks!
Yay advertising - When Craig says he's going to "bring the heat", there was in fact a crematorium service ad being displayed over him. :^P
kellyloganme That said, Craig was really on this episode. Literally LOL at "Turtles all the way down..." :^D
Awesome, thanks.
I had to use a piece of legislation in an essay and I literally got headaches from trying to interpret it properly
phoenixthecookiemonster and probably you did it wrong :D
It requires lots and lots of practice. Also some laws are harder to read than others (I'm looking at you, tax law).
Mortimer Zabi Technically, tax "laws" arent laws... they are regulations. This is because they are written by an administrative agency in the EXECUTIVE branch. Only the legislative branch (for federal, Congress) can pass laws but when Congress in a law gives that power to the executive, they write "rules and regulations"
Although to be fair there are tax laws written by congress but they are very broad. However the vast majority of the tax system is composed of the regulations written by the IRS. They do have the "power of law" though, presuming they dont contradict with anything Congress has specifically written so its not uncommon to colloquially refer to them as "laws"
Actually my point was that the Internal Revenue Code by itself is hard to interpret PRECISELY because it is broad and thus you NEED to go into jurisprudence and administrative regulations, especially when it comes to ticklish topics like the proper situs of taxation for interstate transactions, how to substantiate taxable deductions, etc.
I did not mean to go into a discussion of administrative tax regulations since they can be very, very complicated and are better understood by accountants, not lawyers. Anyhow, not once did I contradict the video in any way. The video never discussed the concept of quasi-legislative and quasi-judicial powers in-depth and thus I never intended to venture into those topics since they're best discussed in a constitutional law course and not a general politics and governance course.
I see your administrative tax regulations and raise you with the complexity of EU law :D
Mortimer Zabi Ddub1083 P.S. Tax law could be categorized as "law" and not only as regulations, as you suggested. :)
It really depends on the jurisdiction, for example in the continental civil traditions you have taxation legislation, perscribed not only by agencies (with delegated regulatory/legislative powers) but also through the legislator itself. You also have tax laws stemming from EU law (e.g. Parents-Subsidiary Directive; Interests and Royalties directive; CCCTB), which are later being transposed within the national legal orders of the Member States again through the legislator. Moreover you could have national taxation laws stemming from the incorporation of bilateral double taxation treaties.
Finally some more abstract stuff.
This guy is awesome!
Brilliant video.
So I just subscribed to crash course..... Then UA-cam crashed.
“I love money” LoL
Love the reference
Love the subtle references to my all time favorite novel "1984" by my favorite author "George Orwell" and my all time favorite TV show " Game of Thrones". I guess being a poli sci. major isn't as big a coincidence as I thought 😁
This is very good information.
Craig makes even boring topics at least smirk-worthy.
The photo of Lepke made my day!
Omg that Turtles All the Way Down hint!
Very interesting. Thanks :-)
Thank you
"Turtles all the way down" did Craig Benzine every go to Beloit College is Wisconsin, because thats our mascot and slang slogan
First of all, CRASH COURSE CIVICS??? I'm confused. However, I use Crash Course to study for my classes, very helpful stuff. Thanks Craig!
I was wondering why Marbury v. Madison did not get a passing mention, then realized that it was already discussed in Crash Course US History.
2:24, was that a possible hint at john green's book 2 years before its release???
Turtles all the way down is a fairly common phrase meaning infinite regression. Though it's no coincidence for John to use the expression.
omfg i just laughed my ass off at the turtles thing
We don't need no stinkin' reasons to punch eagles!
Love thee videos!!
I love this guy.
Thanks to crash course, I won't be failing my test today 😂🙌🏽
Here in Manitoba (province in Canada) if you sue someone and lose, you pay the defendants fees.
I'M THE LAW... well, I'm not, but for a thing so complicated who wants to be a law?
davidkimlive I am a bill. Yes, I'm only a bill. And I'm sitting here on Capitol Hill.
Jeronimo Torres With that rhyme, I believe you are a poet yet did not know it.
Hollth ummm its from a song... So Im pretty certain the rhyme was intended...
... Bob Dylan. The name of the song escapes me.
Two eagle punches make this episode doubly good.
I have a final in 15 minutes and this is all the studying I have done
A smart man says "if you want to break the law first study the law learn how it operates and how it applies to you." quote by Rex Ferel from a book called "hitman technical manual"
why would own a book on how to be a hitman???
LAW SMASH!
I dont care what people say, I love Craig's jokes!
Put something in that cup. Why are you holding it?
McKenzie855 Now I can't help but notice it
EXACTLY what I was thinking -.-
Advertising ;)
McKenzie855 There certainly is something in that cup... an estimated 400,000,000,000,000,000,000 (400 quintillion) molecules of air (oxygen, nitrogen, Co2 etc)
What? He doesn't need a reason to hold the cup
6:17 🔨guilty!
Cant stop laughing
iris martinez I like the way he sounded
can yall make a video just defining legislators, senators, statutes, and all these terms?
0:27 Is that "Colonel Doctor" from "Scrubs"?
Someone please explain the difference between common law and statutory law (Australia)?
is this summary of the US legal systems comparable to the legal systems in the UK and Australia? I get that there will be many minor differences, but, like, I'm from 'straya, sooooo it's basically the same, yeah?
This might be the first educational video I actually have to slow down the speed.
Any chance we as viewers, could be provided with further reading tailored to the specific video. I feel this would help any viewer who is not currently studying the particular topic in college or university, thereby allowing us to gain a deeper understanding.
I don't find the first episode of the series, help me out, please
Awesome! Thanks :) funny
Okay, that eagle punch was actually funny. Credit where it's due.
this makes true crime so much more understandable
Is there any chance the next video on the Legal System will talk about Magna Carta and be released on June 15, 2015? Anyone know the significance of that? *punches eagle*
Do they post transcripts somewhere?
2:24 lol this is now a john green reference
This is helping me more than any book
Captain Possible I suggest you read a book.
Crass Frazier Are you half and stupid?
I think, maybe, I learned something from this video. It's hard to say, it went by so fast!
I like this guy
Every time that eagle gets punched... I admit it. I chuckle...
This will have you on point. Watching all of these.
The thought bubble has the judge saying guilty when discussing a civil case. Bad thought bubble! Bad! Generally, we don't speak of civil cases in terms of guilt or innocence, but in terms of liability. It may seem a pedantic point, but lawyers get worked up about these kinds of things.
So, is it false that once litigation begins, it must be carried out to a resolution by a judge or jury????
I thought you couldn’t appeal if it was legally binding
YA BOI
Interesting.
I'm an attorney and I'm a big fan of this video. Its general explanation of fed courts in America is excellent. However, when the speaker states "who decides what in a case doesn't matter," that is a woefully misguided opinion.
It would take me an hour, several law review articles (i.e., legal scholarship in the form of academic publications), and a couple of books to explain why bench vs. jury trials--or even binding arbitrations (since fed courts are setting a precedent of favoring resolving private disputes via contractually binding arbitration)--while still frightening in practice due to unpredictability, are nevertheless starkly different, the differences of which are highly consequential in any given case.
0:10 crash course physics confirmed?
Big brother is watching? 1984 reference?
Michael M probably
Yea it is
Michael M Are you double thinking?
Teen Hankgst
no... [SHIT the thought police are onto me, guess I just got to join the brotherhood]
I seen, legal system Basics: Crash Course Government and politics # 18.
I wish they did timestamps for all the government videos
Love craig
