Customary Law exists when a certian legal practice is observed or when the relevant actors consider it to be law, customary law is established when the pattern of behavior can be verified with a particular setting. Codified law is the process of collecting and restating the law of a jurisdiction forming a legal code. Restorative justice is when you learn what you did wrong and you have to apologize for what ever you did wrong, if you stole something you have to give it back or pay the person the money back. You might get sent to do community service for what you did. Retributive justice is basically when the offender gets put into jail for the crime or offence he or she has done. Its suppose to teach tehm that if they do something bad that they will get put in jail and its not a fun place to be. Both ways cam be good but they all have there pros and cons. If you do something wrong and steal something and all you have to do is give it back they arent afraid of doing it again because only if they get caught they have to give it back. For Retributive justice you can get institutionalized and that can mess up alot of families and people. Restorative justice systems makes them realize what they did wrong and maes them a better person. In this case if restorative justice is practised Sam would ahve to return all the money he stole form Mrs. McGuire and he would have to write her a apology, he might have some community service for committing hi crime, but if they werent using restorative justice Sam could have ended up in jail for breaking and entering. The benefits for sam was that he didnt end up in jail, but because of his actions he now has community service hours so Sam might have to miss out on some stuff to finish his community service. Mrs. McGuire benefits is she did get back what she got stolen but she now has to put a alarm system in and have to look out more, but the alarm system would make her spend money because she feels insecure, but in the future it could save her alot of money. Sams parents are probably really upset about what their son has done, but they are hapy that he isnt in juevy. But now his mom and dad are probably embarressed because that was there kid that caused a proble in the community. The school would rather not seee a student of theirs in juevy but learning from his or her mistakes and becoming a better person, but the schools concerns could be that they are scared that if he doesnt show up for class they would assumke that he is doing something wrong, so now they dont have as much trust in him. The judge could benefit out of this because he/she could use Sam as a example in the community but concerned that they weren't harsh enough on Sam and he wont be afraid to do that again or something worse if all he has to do is a little bit of community service.

yOU DO A GOOD JOB OF EXPLAINING WHAT RESTORATIVE AND RETRIBUTIVE JUSTICE ARE AND OFFER A GOOD ANALYSIS OF THE ISSUE. I HAD ASKED YOU TO FIND AN EXAMPLE OF RESTORATIVE JUSTICE, WHICH WOULD HAVE IMPROVED YOUR GRADE. INTERESTING PERSPECTIVE IN HERE ESPECIALLY ABOUT THE CASE STUDY WELL DONE. BREAKING YOUR IDEAS APART WITH PARAGRAPHS WOULD HELP WITH THE FLOW OF YOUR WRITING AND MAKE IT EASIER FOR A READER TO COMPREHEND.
