protected legal assets Explanation: "Protected legal assets" basically encompasses anything and everything that is understood to be in the public interest and for the good of society. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 horas (2007-09-05 01:47:58 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- As an example, Mike, in Mexican law they often speak of "bienes jurídicos tutelados por la ley". One of these would be "la salud pública" in drug cases (known as "delitos contra la salud"). Since there is no direct victim (in the US we call them "victimless crimes"), then society is the victim, as expressed by one of these "legal assets" that has been damaged by a crime. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 horas (2007-09-05 01:51:47 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- And of course "protected legal asset(s)" is the translation I use for it. I am not aware that there may be any direct equivalent of this idea used in US law, although indirectly the generic concept of "public interest" would express it. |
