Law Created by each Branch of Government Statutory law is enacted by the legislative branch; these statutes set forth the public policy that the elected legislators want to pursue. Often statutes provide general direction on how the executive branch should implement the statutory laws (public policy).

Separation of powers, therefore, refers to the division of government responsibilities into distinct branches to limit any one branch from exercising the core functions of another.

How is power distributed between the executive branch and legslative? Legislature creates the laws. Executive carries out the laws. That Means congress decides what laws should be passed, such as international trade laws.

There are three branches of the U.S. criminal justice system: the police, the courts, and the corrections system.

Table 2.1 The Most Prominent Checks and Balances between the Branches

I – THE COMMUNITY; II – THE LAW ENFORCEMENT; III – THE PROSECUTION; IV – THE COURTS; and V – CORRECTIONS. As we shall see, OUR CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM IS COMPOSED OF FIVE PILLARS THAT FUNCTION LIKE A CHAIN OF LINKS.

The third pillar of the CJS is the courts pillar. It is the forum where the prosecution is given the opportunity to prove that there is a strong evidence of guilt against the accused. It is also in the courts that the accused is given his “day” to disprove the accusation against him.

Cesare Lombroso

It is considered as the weakest pillar in the Philippine Criminal Justice System because they fail to reform offenders and prevent them from returning to criminal life.

Correction

Why is correction considered the weakest link in our justice system? Because the correction system doesn’t rehabilitate anyone. It doesn’t correct the root cause of crime, but exacerbates it.

Do you agree that correction is the weakest link in Criminal Justice System? No, the weakest link is the criminal record itself that prohibits rehabilitating offenders from finding work that pays enough to leave the old life behind and housing in an environment conducive to change.

Criminal Justice System – is the machinery which the society uses in prevention and control crime. Law Enforcement –First component and pillar of the CJS. They are called the police, conducts arrest, search seizures, etc. The prime mover or front liner of the CJS.

Because taxpayers refuse to fund the courts or the correction system. So, the weakest link in the whole system is the voters. Voters who are apathetic and don’t pay attention. Voters who vote for incompetent or corrupt leadership.

Law enforcement is the first and most visible pillar of the US criminal justice system.

– The centerpiece of the criminal justice system. – Conducts arraignment and trial; acquits the innocent and adjudicate penalty for the accused if found guilty.

1a : an initial source of motive power (such as a windmill, waterwheel, turbine, or internal combustion engine) designed to receive and modify force and motion as supplied by some natural source and apply them to drive machinery. b : a powerful tractor or truck usually with all-wheel drive.

Prime movers are mechanical machines that convert primary energy of a fuel or fluid into mechanical energy. They are also called “turbines or engines.” The fossil fuels commonly used in prime movers are coal, gas, oil, and nuclear fuel.

The Prime Mover of Lambda need not and probably cannot be omniscient. But it does not follow that the cosmos is something not meant by the Mover – whether because he is lost in pure contemplation or because he is only a rudimentary impulse, corporeal or psychic, that issues in circular motion.

mechanical energy are known as prime movers. Windmills, waterwheels, turbines, steam engines, and internal-combustion engines are prime movers.

Aristotle made God passively responsible for change in the world in the sense that all things seek divine perfection. God imbues all things with order and purpose, both of which can be discovered and point to his (or its) divine existence.

This unmoved mover keeps the universe and heaven in motion. According to Aristotle, the unmoved mover either thinks about itself or thinks about something other than itself. Since God is by definition unmoved or unchanged by anything else, it cannot, therefore, think of anything other than itself.

‘that which moves without being moved’) or prime mover (Latin: primum movens) is a concept advanced by Aristotle as a primary cause (or first uncaused cause) or “mover” of all the motion in the universe. As is implicit in the name, the unmoved mover moves other things, but is not itself moved by any prior action.

Thomas Aquinas

Aristotle sometimes called this prime mover “God.” Aquinas understood it as the God of Christianity. primary unmoved mover, but the primary mover at which Aquinas arrived is very different from that of Aristotle; it is in fact the God of Judaism and Christianity.

[4] The Catholic Church notwithstanding, we will now proceed to examine for ourselves the validity of Aquinas’ arguments. In the first way, God is defined as the Prime Mover. We will let Aquinas speak for himself in explaining his first argument for the existence of God.

Thomas Aquinas St.

Gillian Anderson on Thomas Aquinas and the First Mover Argument. Thomas Aquinas argued that there couldn’t be an infinite regression of cause and effect without any fixed starting point. He posited that God was the First Mover, who was able to set the universe in motion without any prior cause.
