That's the buzz phrase, "go dark. "This means that, if you are an investigator, all of a sudden all of your access to information evaporates, because not only the material but the systems that carry the material are so heavily encrypted you are not able to even detect the trail that you might like to follow. That is a huge issue that is technological on one side, and legal and constitutional on the other side. 1, record 2, English, - go%20dark

C'est ce que signifient les expressions à la mode «devenir invisible» ou «devenir aveugle», selon le point de vue. Si vous êtes un enquêteur, vous perdez alors tout d'un coup l'accès à l'information qui vous intéresse parce que, non seulement l'information mais le système dans lequel elle se trouve est si puissamment crypté qu'il vous devient impossible de suivre la trace de cette information. C'est un problème majeur alors que la technologie et les corps policiers ou les organismes de renseignement se trouvent des côtés opposés de la problématique. 1, record 2, French, - devenir%20invisible

In determining the issue as to the priority of the mortgages, the doctrine of "feeding the estoppel" was considered. This doctrine is invoked when a person has no legal interest in the land at the time of the conveyance. As soon as he acquires title, it "feeds the estoppel" so as to pass his title to the grantee, according to the covenants in the deed, but subject to any limitations or defects in his newly acquired title.(5 R.

Dollarization can occur unofficially, without formal legal approval, or it can be official, as when a country ceases to issue a domestic currency and uses only foreign currency.

Crimes abound, and so do victims. This slide-sound transfer to film points out the past indifference of the legal system to the victims of crime, and the need for a national network of organizations specialising in helping these victims. While some organizations do exist, they are concentrated mainly in the urban centers and are not equally accessible to all citizens. The film identifies some of these organisations. Vignettes are used to illustrate three types of crime that, while dissimilar in nature, affect victims in much the same way. A public information film that raises an issue important to all citizens. 2, record 17, English, - Victims%3A%20A%20View%20from%20the%20Shadows
