Marshal law assumes a major job is the passing of Billy Budd. Billy Budd is taken a gander at as unexpectedly slaughtering Claggart he is as yet executed for his wrongdoing. The Navy’s Marshal law was implement and expressed that murder will be murder paying little mind to goal. On the off chance that Marshal law was not implemented Billy Budd would have no doubt have been gone after for executing Claggart and would have been seen as liable yet his condemning would have been different.Billy Budd would have in all likelihood been sent to prison for various years in light of his activities however he would not have been condemned to death.

In the event that the respondent shows that it was not his deficiency they could even and they didn't mean their activities then they could be cleared of murder as well.But in Marshal law they could be trialed and executed for basically slaughtering the other. On account of Billy Budd, Marshal law had an immediate record for his executio n. In the event that there was no marshal law on the British warship he would have been saved his life. All in all Billy Budd’s passing needed to do exclusively with the sort of law imparted in the British Naval positions. On the off chance that Billy Budd would have been charged in normal court he would have been seen as blameworthy and sent to prison for two or three years. Rather Billy Budd was killed by hanging.
