Ucadian Judicial Code
 
     
  The Ucadian Judicial Code is the clearest, most comprehensive and consistent guidelines for the conduct of judicial responsibility and the operation of courts of law ever devised in human history.  
  The Ucadian Judicial Code is based on an exhaustive analysis of cirrent Judicial codes of practice including examples where recent reforms of law have actually weakened, rather than strengthened the operation of the courts.  
  Specifically, the Ucadian Judicial Code addresses elements of Judicial and court procedure that have become areas of dispute and controversy, in particular the function of the jury system, the selection of jury members, the function of a judge to a jury, the order of court proceedings and the degree of latitude afforded both defense and prosecution representatives.  
  The Ucadian Judicial Code incorporates all the generally accepted and recognized principles of international and natural law and ensures that the fair operation of the courts is made possible today and well into the 21st century, no matter what social changes occur.  
22.34.1 Structure of the Judicial Code
 
  The Judicial Code is structured into chapters, which in turn are divided into articles and then one or more clauses within each article.
 
  The major chapters of the Judicial Code are:
 
  1. Introductory provisions
2. Code of conduct
3. Judicial standards and social objectives
4. Justice and operation of courts
5. General principles of the court
6. General principles of discovery and investigation
7. General principles of evidence
8. General principles of the Jury
9. General principles of warrants
10. General principles of securing an accussed person
11. General principles of criminal defense
12. General principles of criminal prosecution
13. General principles of criminal arraignment
14. General principles of a criminal plea
15. General principles of a criminal trial
16. General principles of criminal hearing
17. General principles of criminal verdicts and judgments
18. General principles of criminal appeal and hearing
19. General principles of civil action
20. General principles of civil defense
21. General principles of civil trial
22. General principles of civil hearing
23. General principles of civil verdicts and judgments
24. General principles of civil appeal and hearing
 
  While an article may belong to a particular chapter, the numbering of all articles is consecutive so that the entire body of articles of the Judicial Code may be read as one, with or without the chapter headings.  
22.34.2 The primary objectives of the Judicial code  
  The primary objectives of the Judicial Code are as follows:  
  1. To provide a single supreme document codifying all judicial rules and procedures relating to all civil and criminal law;  
  2. To present a clear set of judicial standards and code of conduct for all magistrates, justices and temporary positions of judgment;  
  3. To define the complete operation of the courts, including function, bodies, procedures and systems;  
  4. To outline the limits of key instruments of law including discovery and investigation, evidence, the jury, warrants and the securing/granting of conditional release of accussed persons;  
  5. To clearly place in context the position of criminal law versus civil law and other unifying codes;  
  6. To protect the rights and privileges of citizens by ensuring the fair operation of the judicial system and all those that perform a function within the scope of the articles defined within the Judicial code.
