In Britain, the vast majority of judges are unpaid. They are called lay magistrates, or lay justices, or Justices of the Peace. They are ordinary citizens who are elected not because they have any legal training but because they have "sound common sense" and understand their fellow human beings. They give up time voluntarily. Lay magistrates are selected by special committees in every town and district and appointed by the Lord Chancellor on behalf of the Queen.

The English court system reflects the division between civil and criminal law. Some courts have more authority than others. Judges in the lower courts are bound to follow the decisions of judges in the higher courts. A criminal case usually begins in a Magistrates’ Court. The magistrate may decide that it is not necessary to hold the suspect in custody and may agree to unconditional bail, or the magistrate may grant conditional bail – that is, release the suspect provided that he puts up some money as security or agrees in surrender his passport or some similar condition.

Most federal courts hear and decide a lot of cases. They primarily hear cases involving questions of constitutional law, federal crimes, bankruptcy, tax, postal, copyright, patent, or trademark laws, and maritime cases. They also hear cases involving parties from different states, or an American citizen and a citizen of another country when the amount in dispute is more than $10,000.

In the English legal system the right to liberty has been important for centuries and was set out in the Magna Carta, an important document in British history. Later the document was seen as a statement of basic civil rights. There are limitations on these rights; but a person can only be detained on specific grounds set out in the law. The most widely used reasons for detaining people are as follows: a lawful arrest on the order of a court while awaiting trial, a sentence of imprisonment after being found guilty of a crime under the Mental Health Acts. If a person has been unlawfully detained he may sue in the civil courts and claim damages for false imprisonment.
