It is often considered a variety of larger Occitan macrolanguage, although some authors consider it a separate language due to hindered mutual intelligibility criteria.Cf. Rohlfs, Gerhard. 1970. ''Le Gascon. Études de philologie pyrénéenne'', 2e éd. Tubingen, Max Niemeyer, & Pau, Marrimpouey jeune. Gascon is mostly spoken in Gascony and Béarn ( Béarnese dialect) in southwestern France (in parts of the following French ''départements'': Pyrénées-Atlantiques, Hautes-Pyrénées, Landes, Gers, Gironde, Lot-et-Garonne, Haute-Garonne, and Ariège) and in the Val d'Aran of Catalonia. Aranese, a southern Gascon variety, is spoken in Catalonia alongside Catalan and Spanish.

The dispute is resolved by a judgment only if conciliation cannot be achieved by the court. Judges are not professionals; currently appointed, they were traditionally French Labour Court elections, elected by their peers, with an even number of judges. Half the members represent employers, and half represent employees.

Juvenile Court
Juvenile court, also known as young offender's court or children's court, is a tribunal having special authority to pass judgements for crimes committed by children who have not attained the age of majority. In most modern legal systems, children who commit a crime are treated differently from legal adults who have committed the same offense. Juveniles have a lack of capacity for understanding their criminal acts, meaning they also have diminished criminal responsibility compared to their adult counterparts. In some states like California and Georgia, the Juvenile Court may also have jurisdiction over juvenile dependency cases which involve determining whether a child has been abused, abandoned, or neglected by their parent or legal guardian. Industrialized countries differ in whether juveniles should be charged as adults for serious crimes or considered separately. Since the 1970s, minors have been increasingly tried as adults in response to "increases in violent juvenile c ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Court Of Appeal (France)
In France, a ''cour d'appel'' (; court of appeal) of the ''ordre judiciaire'' (judiciary) is a ''juridiction de droit commun du second degré'', an appellate court of general jurisdiction. It reviews the judgments of a ''tribunal judiciaire''. When one of the parties is not satisfied with the trial court's judgment, the party can file an appeal. While decisions of a court of first instance are termed "jugements" in French, a court of appeal hands down an ''arrêt'' (decision on appeal), which may either affirm or reverse the judgment of the court below. An ''arrêt'' (judgment) of the court of appeal may be further appealed ''en cassation''. If the appeal is admissible at the ''cour de cassation'', that court does not re-judge the facts of the matter a third time, but may investigate and verify whether the rules of law were properly applied by the lower courts. French territories currently contain 36 courts of appeal, six of which are overseas, and a ''tribunal supérieur d'appel'' ...

Since it had original jurisdiction, the Court's rulings could be appealed to a French appellate court or Supreme Court. Prior to 1958, the court was known as a Justice of the Peace Court (''justice de paix'') until the judicial restructuring of 1958. In the Court, proceedings were conducted based on oral testimony and arguments, and, unlike in higher courts, legal counsel is not mandatory. Other judicial courts of original jurisdiction were: *Magistrate courts (''juge de proximité'') - for small claims and petty misdemeanors (since 1 July 2017 these claims now fall under the jurisdiction of the tribunal d'instance) *High courts (''tribunal de grande instance'') - ...
