This article discusses the relationship between political configuration and the characteristics of judicial power exercised by the Supreme Court and Constitutional Court in Indonesia. In writing this article, a normative approach is used in the form of legal history and comparative law. There is a very close relationship between political configuration and the characteristics of judicial power in Indonesia so that it can influence judicial power in Indonesia. The form of political configuration intervention in judicial power is not implementing the decisions of the judiciary and replacing judges in the Supreme Court and Constitutional Court in Indonesia. This causes the level of public (society) trust in judicial power and law in Indonesia to decline drastically and of course, cannot realize social justice in Indonesia.

This study aimed to determine the police trust in relation to police community relation and performance in District 1 of Davao del Norte, 384 residents from the district 1 of Davao del Norte participated the survey. The study used descriptive-predictive design with the utilization of mean, standard deviation, pearson-r and multiple linear regression. The findings revealed that police-community relation positively and significantly correlated with police trust (r=0.500, p<0.05), similarly, police performance positively and significantly correlated with police trust (r=0.862, p<0.05). However, the significant influence of police community relation and police performance to predict public trust, overall results indicate that indicators of police performance, such as attentiveness, reliability, fairness, manners, and responsiveness, have a stronger predictive relationship with police trust compared to indicators of police-community relations. The public relation program also shows a positive relationship with trust in both models. However, the civic action program, public information program, mass communication program, and competence do not significantly contribute to the prediction of police trust.

The protection of personal data is a top priority for both individuals and organizations in the modern digital world. In the Ghanaian context, strict data privacy laws are essential to protecting citizens' rights and privacy. The legal foundation for these restrictions is the 1992 constitution of Ghana and Data Protection Act, specifically the Data Protection Act, 2012 (Act 843), which establishes the guidelines for legitimate data processing, the responsibilities of data controllers and processors, and the rights of data subjects. Compliance with local laws, however, may not be sufficient for enterprises operating on a worldwide scale or in international marketplaces as a result of the fact that globalization and digitalization cut across national boundaries. This article delves into Ghana's complex data privacy landscape, illuminating key points and providing suggestions for how businesses can improve their data protection practices by adhering to internationally recognized data protection standards like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) of the European Union. Understanding the fundamental principles of Ghana's Data Protection Act, the scope and applicability of GDPR in Ghana, the importance of data mapping and inventory, the function of Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs), consent and the rights of data subjects, data security and breach notification, and the potential sanctions for non-compliance are some of the key areas of focus. Readers can obtain a profound awareness of Ghana's data privacy landscape and the procedures necessary to successfully align with national and international data protection regulations by navigating this in-depth exploration. Businesses that prioritize compliance with data protection regulations in Ghana are better positioned not only to meet legal requirements but also to foster trust, drive innovation, and contribute to the nation's digital advancement on the global stage. In an ever-evolving digital world where data privacy is paramount.

When a marital status is dissolved between a man and woman it is known as Divorce. After petition is filed by the women or man, the separation is granted by the court of law. It had been observed that about 7 out of the 10 calls received by an advocate in a day are about divorce. To be specific, it is noted that there is 20% growth in divorce cases after the court resumes after lockdown. Bill passed in the parliament in the mid-1950s provided for women property rights, outlawed polygamy and allowed partners to file for divorce. The laws were further twisted in 1976 to allow divorce by mutual consent. Divorce is one of the most horrible and painful encounters in an individual's life. Divorce is the end of a marriage, dropping the legal obligations and duties of marriage and dissolving the obligations of marital status among a couple. Divorce is perhaps the hardest situation a family can go through. Not so far in the past the word 'Divorce' was unimaginable. Individuals even delayed their enduring marriages to maintain a strategic distance from divorce but this situation isn’t the same any longer. Everywhere throughout the world, the rate of divorce among couples is growing at a disturbing rate.

The main purpose of the study was to determine the significant relationship between student engagement of criminology student and classroom management of college instructs and to come up with a regression model for student engagement of criminology students. Based on the findings of the study, there was a significant relationship between classroom management and student engagement, however, there was no significant relationship between sex and student engagement. It was also revealed that the combined influence of sex and classroom management on student engagement is significant. Three models of students’ student engagement are crafted from the results of the study: general model, model for male students and model for female students. The models comparatively show that may it be male or female students, they have the same degree of student engagement.

Professionalism should also be embraced to sustain movement towards stable national security.

“Children are not things to be molded, but are people to be unfolded.” Jess Lair When children regularly engage in sexual behaviour for money or the advantage of others, this is referred to as child prostitution. These institutionalised arrangements continued, regular societal structures involve the sexual exploitation of children. Child prostitution is a particularly severe form of exploitative child labour as well as a severe form of sexual abuse of children. Due to the widespread lack of awareness towards the issue, child prostitution has not received enough attention in India despite being a major global concern. Children are stripped of their childhood, human rights, and dignity as a result of this long-standing issue. Child trafficking is one of the various ways that children are used as prostitutes. Studies on trafficking have focused on the forced migration of children for sex.
