Abstract This paper challenges the traditional conception of the Jespersen Cycle by arguing that no ‘pure’ first phase of the cycle exists where a single negator operates without reinforcement.

Why Bulk Discount for Multiple Offenders? A Lexical Local Justification

The Modern Law Review, EarlyView.
This paper offers an original non‐consequentialist justification for the ‘bulk discount’ given to offenders who are sentenced for multiple counts in a single proceeding, a discount that is available in most jurisdictions.
