The Prosecutor's Office in the tsarist Russia was established in 1722. The Russian Prosecutor's Office was founded in 1922. It exercises general supervision over observance of laws. Its main function is to see that all laws are correctly and uniformly applied throughout the country.

Any citizen of the Russian Federation can complain to the Prosecutor's Office against violation of his/her rights. A prosecutor also has the right to appeal against all unlawful decisions and actions of state organs and officials.

The Prosecutor's Office institutes criminal proceedings and investigates criminal cases. Investigators ascertain the circumstances under which crimes were committed, collect evidence against the perpetrators of crimes and their accomplices. Then courts try the cases submitting to them by the Prosecutor's Office, and the prosecutor brings a charge before the court in the name of the state. After the trial the prosecutor checks the sentences and judgments handed down by the court as to their legality. He has the right to enter any appeal if in his opinion the sentence or judgment is erroneous.

Lawyer: My working experience (опыт) in the legal field is over ten years, sir. I'll try to help you.

Client: Well, I found out (обнаружить) that one of my competitors (конкуренты) is infringing (посягать) my trademark and I would like to stop the potential damage to my business.

Lawyer: I see. Is there any evidence (доказательства)?

Client: Of course. It's obvious. They have created the logotype, which is almost like ours and they are using some of our trade (торговля) techniques.

Lawyer: Sounds like there is someone working at your company who sells information.

Client: I've never thought about it. Perhaps, you are right. I should investigate (расследовать) the case.

Lawyer: If that's true, you better fire (уволить) this person and never accept his or her services again.

Client: What else can (возможно) be done in this situation?

Lawyer: You can try to write a threatening (предупреждающее) letter to the firm that uses your logo.

Client: I've tried to do so, but they didn't produce any reaction.

Lawyer: In that case we can file an action (подать иск) in the district (окружной) court.

Client: That would be a good decision. However, I'm sure the competitor won't confess (признать вину). Any other solutions?

Lawyer: We can also present the proof (доказательство) of damage and all compensable losses (потери подлежащие компенсации) your company have had. That's the best thing to do in such situation.

Client: Of course, there are some damages, but will the court take them into consideration (принять во внимание)?

Lawyer: I'm sure they will. They should (следует) also accept that you are the rightful owner (владелец) of the trademark.

Client: That would be great.

Lawyer: I'll start working on this case as soon as possible. I'll ask one of my associates (коллеги) to meet with your people and start gathering evidence (собирать доказательства).

Client: Thanks so much. That would be very helpful.

Lawyer: Not at all. That's my job.

History of the police in Great Britain and the USA

Police is a judicial and executive system, and an organized civil force for maintaining law and order and enforcing the laws.

There are traces to be found in every organized society of some system of rules for the maintenance at peace and order. At the same time, a system at police in the special modern sense of the term did not exist in ancient times.

In England, from the time of the Saxon kings, there had existed an organization of a partially voluntary character for the repression of crime and arrest of criminals, and the maintenance of good order. In 1828 Robert Peel (hence the term “Bobbie” or “Peeler” applied to the British, police) secured the passage of a stature creating the Metropolitan Police Force, and leading the way to the adoption of a uniform system for the whole country. The Metropolitan Police Force dates from 1829. Its office is New Scotland Yard; near the Houses of Parliament.

London is divided into four districts in charge of chief constables. Under the latter are the superintendents, most of them in charge of divisions embracing from 500 to 1.000 men. In rank follow the inspectors, the sergeants, and the constables.

In the USA, the English system was followed. In 1857 the State Legislature of Hew York copied the London plan, but in 1870 abandoned it in favor of local control. In New York City, the Police Department is under the supervision of a commissioner appointed for a term of five years; he may be removed by the mayor or by the Governor of the State. He has five deputies, also appointed by the mayor. The city is divided into 17 inspection districts, each in charge of an inspector, and the districts are divided into precincts, each in charge of a captain.

Task 2. Give the Russian for:

judicial and executive system, civil force, maintaining law and order, system of rules, maintenance of peace and order, system of police, repression of crime, arrest of criminals, maintenance of good order.

Task 3. Give the English for:

Task 4. Маkе up word combinations. Use them in sentences of your own.

a) judicial society

executive system

organised

b) system local control police

sense criminals rules

organization the term

arrest of chief constables

maintenance divisions

in charge good order

in favor an inspector

a captain

partially voluntary character

c) to divide into districts

precincts

d) to appoint by the mayor the governor

Task 5. Translate into English:

1) В Англии с 1829 существовала Центральная полицейская служба. Это была организация частично добровольного характера для подавления преступления и ареста преступников. Её офис был в Нью-Скотленд-Ярде, а возглавлял его Начальник констеблей.

2) В США последовали английской системе. С 1870 существовало Полицейское управление под руководством специального уполномоченного, который имел пять заместителей.

Task 1. Read the text.

Solicitors and Barristers

England is unique in having two different kinds of lawyers. They are solicitors and barristers.

If a person has a legal problem, he goes to see a solicitor. Almost every town has at least one. In fact, there are about 60,000 solicitors in Britain.

Many problems are dealt with exclusively by a solicitor. For instance, the solicitor deals with petty crimes and some matrimonial matters in magistrates’ courts. He prepares the case and the evidence. He may represent his client in the lower courts. In a civil action, he can speak in the county court, when the case is one of divorce or recovering some debts. Besides, a solicitor deals with other matters. He does the legal work involved in buying a house, he writes legal letters for you, he helps you to make a will, etc.

Barristers are different from solicitors. Barristers are experts in the interpretation of the law. They advise on really difficult points, and conduct legal proceedings in the higher courts. Barristers are rather remote figures. A barrister’s client can come to him only via a solicitor. Barristers do not have public offices in any street. They work in chambers, often in London. There are about 6,000 barristers in England. Usually only barristers can become judges in English courts.

Task 2. What is the difference between a solicitor and a barrister? Are there such professions in Russia?

Task 3. The legal training for solicitors (who provide general legal advice to clients) and barristers (who present cases in the upper courts) is different. The following short texts describe the stages of legal training, but they are mixed up. Put the steps into the correct order.

1. PRACTICE AND CONTINUING EDUCATION.

The next stage is to obtain a “tenancy”: becoming an assistant to a practicing barrister.

2. GETTING THE QUALIFICATIONS.

The next step is to acquire some legal training specific to the work of a barrister.

3. DEVELOPING PRACTICAL SKILLS

Next the intending solicitor has to enter a two-year training contract with a firm of solicitors to gain practical experience in a variety of areas of law.

4. GETTING THE TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE: PUPILAGE.

This is the “apprenticeship” served by trainee barristers, who are known as pupils. It usually takes a year and consists of a mixture of assisting and observing experienced barristers, as well as more practical experience.

5. GETTING THE ACADEMIC QUALIFICATIONS.

The quickest and most common route to qualification is by means of a qualifying law degree.

6. GETTING THE VOCATIONAL QUALIFICATIONS.

You will have to undertake the Legal Practice Course, which is the professional training for solicitors. The course teaches the practical application of the law to the needs of clients.

7. GETTING THE ACADEMIC QUALIFICATIONS.

The first part of training to become a barrister is known as the academic stage, which provides a general theoretical introduction to the law.

Task 4. A) Read the following words and words combinations. Listen to the video about the qualities of a good lawyer attentively.

What is Interpol?

The International Criminal Police Organisation, or Interpol, was created to hinder the activities of criminals who were exploiting the relative freedom of borders between countries in the early part of the 20th century. For years, smugglers and thieves could commit crimes in one European country and escape across the border to gain immunity within a neighboring state, before any authorities could catch up with them.

The barriers of language, culture and distance can cause difficulty for police officers investigating criminal activity that spans one or more country, but Interpol can provide unbiased assistance that benefits most law enforcement agencies. Interpol deals only with international crime, so much of their work is focused on terrorism and organised crime, within areas such as drug trafficking, arms dealing, money laundering, human trafficking and high tech crime; all of which are carried out within criminal networks that span the globe. The information that the organisation gather from across the globe is available to law enforcement agencies within numerous databases, and it is the upkeep and collation of that intelligence that makes Interpol a vital part of the criminal investigation process in many countries.

Each member country has its own Interpol office, or National Central Bureau, which is staffed by the national police force – in the UK the bureau is part of the International Division of the NCIS. These bureaus form a point of contact for any foreign agency or government who wish to exchange or gather information on particular criminal activities. Contrary to belief, most Interpol officers are based within their country’s bureau and not traveling the world combating crime, but

nevertheless, the co-operation of each officer is vital to many international criminal investigations.
