| | Right - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In most views of law, it is not generally considered necessary that a right should be understood by a holder of that right, thus rights may be agreed on behalf of another, such as children's rights or the rights of people declared mentally incompetent to understand their rights. | | | Civil rights are the protections and privileges of personal liberty given to all citizens by law. | | | In many cases, especially regarding ideological and similar rights, the obligation depends on the legal system in its entirety, or on the state, or on the generical universality of other subjects submitted to the law. |

| | Legal Definition of Right |
| | The former are those where the party has the legal title to a thing, and in that case, his remedy for an infringement of it, is by an action in a court of law. | | | Rights might with propriety be also divided into natural and civil rights but as all the rights which man has received from nature have been modified and acquired anew from the civil law, it is more proper, when considering their object, to divide them into political and civil rights. | | | The latter, or equitable rights, are those which may be enforced in a court of equity by the cestui que trust. |

| | Law vs. Legal |
| | What is legal is cognizable in courts of law; as distinguished from courts of equity which are not governed by rules of law. | | | Legal systems may conform to law, they may be permitted by law, they may even be created by law but they are not law in themselves. | | | By definition, a legal title is the opposite or at least the antithesis of an "equitable title." An equitable title as opposed to a legal title "is a right in the party" rather than only appearing to be a right. |

| | Legal Rights |
| | We talk of legislatures having the legal right to pass laws, of judges to decide cases, of private individuals to make wills and contracts; as well as of constitutions providing legal rights to the citizens against fellow citizens and against the state itself. | | | Legal rights are, clearly, rights which exist under the rules of legal systems. | | | The issue is often complicated, legally, by the absence of clear indication from the legislature as whether it intended, by a particular statute, to create only a crime or also to confer civil law rights on citizens. |

| | NCLR - Legal Recognition of LGBT Families |
| | The agreement should specify that although only one of the parents is the legal parent, both parents consider themselves to be the parents of their child, with all of the legal rights and responsibilities that come with that position. | | | A legal parent is a person who has the legal right to be with a child and make decisions about the child's health, education, and well-being. | | | The most common means by which lesbian or gay co-parents establish a legal relationship with their child is through what is generally referred to as a "second parent adoption." A second parent adoption is the legal procedure by which a same-sex co-parent adopts his or her parent's child without terminating the other parent's parental rights. |

| | Prisoners' Dilemma - How the administration is obstructing the Supreme Court's terror decisions. By Phillip Carter |
| | In its Rasul decision, the Supreme Court recognized the Gitmo detainees' right to file a writ of habeas corpus in federal court. | | | The essence of the legal strategy is to litigate every single procedural and technical issue to the full extent of the law, using the vast resources of the Justice Department to delay judicial action as long as possible. | | | Although these events concern different legal issue and different sets of detainees, they share a common denominator: a legal strategy to keep the rule of law out of the war on terrorism by whatever procedural, legal, or administrative means are available. |

Whisnant v. | | | An inmate’s right of access to the courts also mandates that prisons provide inmates with adequate law libraries or adequate assistance from persons trained in the law, such as paralegals or law students. Until recently, the leading case concerning the adequacy of prison law libraries or legal assistance was Bounds v. | | | Byrd held that inmates had a constitutional right to institute and pursue civil litigation unrelated to the reason for their incarceration, and provided that a civil action brought by an inmate should be stayed until the inmate was released from prison and could appear in court, Sanjines v. |

| | The justices had no business discussing their view of any perceived violation of §4511.55(A) (the "far right rule") because Steve Selz was not charged with such a violation, the case was not tried on this issue and the judge did not use the "far right as practicable" language in convicting him. | | | When Allen politely refused to leave the road, and indicated he was within his legal rights, he was issued citations for riding a bicycle in an area not set aside for such use, and for disobeying the order of an officer. | | | However, the MDC and state police claim that their regulation is equivalent to state law, and thus creates a legal 'gray area'. |
