A Socio- legal Analysis of Sentencing Inequality

Author(s) Ms. Balreen Kaur Brar
Country India
Abstract The core principle of the legal system is “equality before law”. It mandates that individuals who commit the same offence would undergo the same punishment. However, in reality this principle is not followed, there is often a judicial disparity; it produces different outcomes for the same crime. Through this research paper, the researcher explores the disparity in criminal sentencing- the sentencing gap between the legal rule book and actual punishments pronounced by the court.
