Orphan date February 2009 Refimprove date February 2008 Legal impossibility is a traditional common law defense legal defense to a charge of an attempted crime. Legal impossibility arises when a person believes she is committing a crime , but the act is, in fact, lawful. For example, a person may believe she is receiving stolen goods, but the goods are in fact not stolen. A different form of legal impossibility Known as hybrid legal impossibility comes into play when an actor s goal is illegal, but commission of the crime is impossible due to a factual mistake regarding the legal status of one of the attendant circumstances of one of the elements of the crime. For example, a man attempting to bribe someone whom he mistakenly believes is a juror is not liable for attempted bribery of a juror. On the other hand, some jurisdictions may find the actor guilty of attempt. For example, under the Model Penal Code, the defendant can be guilty of the attempted crime if the facts being the way she thought they were would indeed make it a crime however, she would not be guilty of the completed crime, because the crime was never completed.

Globalize date December 2010 A legal district or judicial district denotes the territorial area for which a legal court law has jurisdiction . Courts in Germany In Germany, ordinary Gerichtsbarkeit courts are the smallest districts of those courts. ref See interwiki article in the German Wikipedia . ref There are superior court districts, which usually have several legal districts forming a regional district. Accordingly, the relationship between regional districts and the Oberlandesgericht is designed. To speak of a legal district of the Federal Court is superfluous, because that district would include the entire federal territory. The rule that courts are only responsible in matters within their legal districts, however, must not be over represented. The legal process takes a number of schemes under which also matters from a different legal district may be justified, or jurisdiction in those cases in which a domestic court normally is not present. Courts in Austria In Austria, a legal district Gerichtsbezirk is the smallest area of a District court. A political district a Verwaltungsbezirk may include several judicial districts, a district court, however, never extends over more than a political district.

A legal doctrine is a framework, set of rules, procedural steps, or test, often established through precedent in the common law , through which judgments can be determined in a given legal case. A doctrine comes about when a judge makes a ruling where a process is outlined and applied, and allows for it to be equally applied to like cases.
