Que Warranto’s
What is Quo Warranto?
Quo Warranto is a special legal action used to challenge whether a person or organization has the lawful right to hold a public office or exercise a specific authority. The term comes from Latin, meaning “By what authority?”
In practice, a Quo Warranto proceeding asks: By what authority are you acting? If the court finds that someone is occupying a position or exercising power without legal basis, they can be removed.
Quo Warranto is often used in cases involving government officials, corporate offices, or entities exercising powers they may not rightfully have. It is a tool designed to uphold accountability, transparency, and lawful governance.
SEC
What is the SEC?
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is a U.S. government agency responsible for overseeing the securities industry and protecting investors. Created in 1934 after the stock market crash of 1929, the SEC’s mission is to maintain fair, orderly, and efficient markets.
The SEC enforces laws that require public companies to provide truthful and transparent financial information, regulates stock exchanges and brokers, and takes action against fraud, insider trading, and other violations.
Through its work, the SEC helps build trust in the financial system and ensures that investors have access to reliable information before making investment decisions.
Copyrights
What are Copyrights?
Copyrights are a form of legal protection granted to creators of original works, such as books, music, art, films, software, and more. When someone creates an original work, copyright law gives them the exclusive right to reproduce, distribute, display, perform, or adapt that work for a certain period of time.
In most countries, copyright is automatically applied as soon as the work is created and fixed in a tangible form (like written down, recorded, or saved digitally). Others cannot legally copy or use the work without the creator’s permission, unless it falls under “fair use” or similar exceptions.
Copyrights exist to encourage creativity by ensuring that creators are recognized and rewarded for their work, while also balancing public access to knowledge and culture.
Private Prosecutions
What are Private Prosecutions?
A private prosecution is a legal action started by an individual or organization, rather than by the state, to bring someone accused of a crime before the court. In many legal systems, the government usually has the exclusive authority to prosecute criminal cases. However, private prosecutions give citizens a way to seek justice if they believe the authorities have failed to act.
Private prosecutions can serve as a check on government inaction, but they are subject to strict rules. Courts and public prosecutors often review such cases, and in many jurisdictions the state can take over, continue, or stop a private prosecution.
This process exists to ensure accountability, while still protecting against misuse of the justice system.
