Harmless Constitutional Error And The Institutional Significance Of The Jury, Roger A. Fairfax, Jr.
Fordham Law Review
Appellate harmless error review, an early twentieth-century innovation prompted by concerns of efficiency and finality, had been confined to nonconstitutional trial errors until forty years ago, when the U.S. Supreme Court extended the harmless error rule to trial errors of constitutional proportion.
