Pros of lay judges in the US include increased community representation and diversity in the judicial system, which can enhance public trust and understanding of legal processes. They may bring fresh perspectives that challenge traditional legal norms. However, cons include potential inconsistencies in legal interpretation and decision-making, as lay judges may lack formal legal training, leading to concerns about the quality of justice. Additionally, their involvement might complicate legal proceedings and introduce biases based on personal experiences.
Lay down the pros and cons of both, then follow your heart.
Bulgaria does not have a system of jury duty like that found in some other countries, such as the United States. Instead, the Bulgarian legal system primarily relies on professional judges and lay judges in certain cases, particularly in serious criminal matters. Lay judges are not randomly selected citizens but are appointed members with specific qualifications. The absence of a jury system reflects Bulgaria's civil law tradition, which emphasizes judges' roles in adjudicating cases.
It may be in reference to a judge who doesn't happen to be an attorney.
I assume you mean D-con as an abbreviation for de-contaminant or De-contamination. This falls under the heading of damage control, and is a heavy type of subject. There are what are called De-con guns that somewhat resemble some form of fire extin guishers. They are not fire-control apparatus but are sometimes used in the clean-up of chemical blazes involving toxic chemicals. they have odd-shaped nozzles and are held at about a 30 degree down angle by the operators. I have seen this type used in asbestos clean-ups at a local library. Then there are Decontamination trucks- which have odd pan-c ake shaped bodies on the back of a regular truck chassis- vaguely resembling a UFO. In use these lay down a white smoke screen from some sort of Hydroxide powder and this is intended to clean up the ground following chemical accidents. There are smaller models on two-wheel carts that are hand-pushed and resemble farm and garden implements! so there you have it. Deacon, pronounced somewhat similar, is an ecclesiastical rank. there is no other connection. D-con was a trade name for a pesticide-and featured the Boxer Muhammad Ali in ads. My Mother thought it was a pun on (deacon_ and wondered why this name would be attached to a pesticide! small wonder- this was long before the child abuse scandals rocking the church.
