Law and Constitution For Every Jamaican

Well known amongst colleagues as a zealous advocate for the constitutional right to

freedoms of thought and expression, David Batts extends his reach with this

simplification of the Jamaican Constitution, law, and legal system for all Jamaicans

to better understand it. The Law and Constitution for Every Jamaican provides

information on how the law works. The book commences with a definition of law

and the legal systems of the world. It explains the Jamaican legal system its

genesis, how it operates - and how the judicial system functions. Ideal for the Civics

student at any level, this work covers other institutions of governance. From the

Jamaica Constabulary Force to the operations of the National Land Agency, the

Transport Authority and the Island Traffic Authority; the Rent Board and Firearm

Licensing Authority (to name a few), readers will benefit from details and

explanations as well as examples showing the law in action.
