Dear Sherab Bro,
Let me set you the context and it should be easy for you to understand since you’re the
mastermind here. Basically, my research paper is about comparing the topics below between
Bhutan and the USA. I need you to give me everything you got on the topics below (only
Bhutan, not the USA, I’ll handle USA but if you do have additional information about USA,
please feel free to include) in the context of GNH:
• How does the courts in Bhutan (supreme court and other courts) arrive at a
judgement on a specific area of law like criminal law, public law and the others?
• What Legal system or legal tradition does Bhutan fall under or belong to? Is it a
common law? Civil law? Mixed system? Customary law?
• What is Bhutan’s system of government? (parliament? Presidential? Etc?)
• Did Bhutan have a Legal transplant (adopting laws of other countries because it
is compatible) from other legal systems in the past?
• What is considered Bhutan’s highest court? What are its primary functions?
• How are the members of the high court selected? Where did most of them study?
• Is the high court in Bhutan independent or accountable to the public, legislators,
the executive?
•How do trials take place in Bhutan? Is it a written proceeding or oral testimony?
• How does the appeal process work in Bhutan? To how many courts can it be
appealed?
• Does the high court in Bhutan have Judicial review over the legislation or the
executives? Where does the power come from?
