20. TRANSPARENT WORDS

• Ex: The jury rendered the verdict this morning.

21. false friends – MAGISTRATE
• Noun 1. a civil officer charged with the administration of
the law.
• 2. a minor judicial officer, as a justice of the peace or the
judge of a police court, having jurisdiction to try minor
criminal cases and to conduct preliminary examinations
of persons charged with serious crimes.

22. false friends – EXPERT WITNESS
• n. a person who is a specialist in a subject, often
technical, who may present his/her expert opinion
without having been a witness to any occurrence relating
to the lawsuit or criminal case

23. false friends – LAW / ACT
• 1. Act is a legal document (in written form) passed by a
legislator to regulate certain area of social behaviour. It is
one of the sources of law.
The word statute is often use to refer to act as well.
2. Law is generally a system of rules of behaviour
covering all sources of law (including acts).

24. false friends – CONSIDERATION
• Something of value given by both parties to a contract
that induces them to enter into the agreement to
exchange mutual performances.
• Consideration is an essential element for the formation
of a contract. It may consist of a promise to perform a
desired act or a promise to refrain from doing an act that
one is legally entitled to do.

25. false friends – ASSIGNMENT
• An assignment (Latin cessio) is a term used with similar
meanings in the law of contracts and in the law of real
estate. In both instances, it encompasses the transfer of
rights held by one party—the assignor—to another
party—the assignee.[1] The details of the assignment
determines some additional rights and liabilities (or
duties).

26. IDIOMS AND PROVERBS
•There are a number of fixed
expressions, idioms and proverbs
revolving the world of the legal
English. Here there are some
examples…

27. NECESSITY KNOWS NO LAW
• The proverb could be used to justify the behaviour of a
man who steals food to keep his wife and family from
starving. As Cervantes wrote in Don Quixote: ‘Necessity
urges desperate measures”

28. POSSESION IS NINE POINTS OF THE
LAW
• We use this to mean that even though full legal right to a
thing has not been established, he who is in possession
of it has a far greater right to it than has everybody else.

29. SOME OTHER EXPRESSIONS
• Law makers should not be law breakers
• Law catches flies and lets hornets go free.
• Laws were made to be broken
• Every law has ita loophole
