Scope and content : May 21- 23, 1969. Moerman collected information about the conduct of delinquent cases. Issues of interest were noted such as 1) Under the Constitution, Section 25, if delinquent suspects were unfairly held in custody, the persons could file a lawsuit to the court. 2) The delinquent-conduct accused filed a lawsuit to the provincial governor on the pretext of illegal retardation. 3) In the opinion of Patr, Thai law provided no clear definition on delinquent behavior. 4) Patr and Moerman held different opinions on the unfairness of the order to imprison the accused in the case of delinquent behavior. The accused had no opportunity for litigation. 5) In the trial that the accused was charged with a delinquent behavior, there was a tendency for the court to hear the evidence from only one side. And often the evidence mostly imputed the penalty against the accused. 6) Considering cases of delinquent behavior, Moerman believed that in Thailand Executive Power prevailed over Judical Power.
