TASK 21. Прочитайте и устно переведите текст “The English system of Law” There are three separate systems of law in the United Kingdom: the legal systems
and law courts of 1) England and Wales; 2) Scotland; 3) Northern Ireland. However, there are some common features to all systems in the United Kingdom: the sources of law, the distinction between civil law and criminal law. The sources of law include: 1) written law (statutes); 2) unwritten law based on judicial precedent. We also call the common law as “judgemade law”. It means that when one judge had decided a point of law, any judge who has the similar set of facts must decide case in the same way as in the earlier judgement. In other words, the judge uses the process of analogy. And it is in this way that the generations of judges have built up the Common law.
