The psychological approach to the Law and legal system consists of characteristics that affect the way the law and legal personnel think and sway their judgment to be for a specific situation or against it. Some of the factors that can determine what the person or individual characteristics are that may help or disgruntle a victim of the law mostly have to deal with personal life and living styles of the Jury, Judge and other participants in the legal system. If an American Indian is in a jury that is convicting another American Indian then he may be more sympathetic to the one who is being tried. An individual’s perspective of life and the way they live their own life affects the Law system by contributing to the overall Law and Legal decision-making. The psychological approach indulges into the values, behavior, living standards, race and sex to prove that people judge others by their own standards and life style.
