Constitutional Law--Double Jeopardy--Prosecutions By Both A City And A State For An Identical Offense As A Violation Of The Prohibition Against Double Jeopardy--Waller V. State, Michigan Law Review Dec 1969

Constitutional Law--Double Jeopardy--Prosecutions By Both A City And A State For An Identical Offense As A Violation Of The Prohibition Against Double Jeopardy--Waller V. State, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

In Benton v. Maryland, decided in June of this year, the Supreme Court explicitly extended fifth amendment protection against double jeopardy to the states through the fourteenth amendment. Palko was specifically overruled to the extent that it was inconsistent with the Benton decision. Thus, the theories traditionally used to defend prosecutions by both a city and a state for the same offense must be examined to determine whether they are still valid when the fifth amendment's prohibition against double jeopardy is applied to state proceedings. This Recent Development examines the implications of the Benton decision for those theories.

Reimbursement Of Defense Costs As A Condition Of Probation For Indigents, Michigan Law Review May 1969

Reimbursement Of Defense Costs As A Condition Of Probation For Indigents, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

It is extremely difficult to obtain precise information concerning the prevalence of this practice. There is only one reported case on the subject, and empirical evidence is almost wholly lacking because of the wide discretion granted sentencing courts in imposing probation conditions, and because of the reluctance of appellate courts to review the exercise of that discretion. However, courts have frequently imposed costs on nonindigent probationers, and in many jurisdictions the statutes which authorize such a probation condition with respect to solvent probationers seem broad enough to include indigents as well. Moreover, two recent studies have unearthed specific data which …


The Congressional Invitation To Avoid The Preliminary Hearing: An Analysis Of Section 303 Of The Federal Magistrates Act Of 1968, Patricia W. Weinberg, Robert L. Weinberg May 1969

The Congressional Invitation To Avoid The Preliminary Hearing: An Analysis Of Section 303 Of The Federal Magistrates Act Of 1968, Patricia W. Weinberg, Robert L. Weinberg

Michigan Law Review

Under prior law, it is true, many federal prosecutors routinely avoided preliminary hearings by securing continuances of the hearing date until after an indictment was obtained. But this ploy required a complaisant magistrate or an inert defendant. Moreover, the propriety of using continuances to circumvent the accused's right to a preliminary hearing had come under increasing and sometimes successful attack. Section 303, if literally construed, can legitimize the prosecutorial practice of mooting the defendant's right to a preliminary hearing under rule 5(c) by obtaining a relatively quick indictment. This predictable use or abuse of the Act should and can be …

Imprisonment For Nonpayment Of Fines And Costs: A New Look At The Law And The Constitution, Paul M. Stein Apr 1969

Imprisonment For Nonpayment Of Fines And Costs: A New Look At The Law And The Constitution, Paul M. Stein

Vanderbilt Law Review

This note is based on the premise that a new understanding of the principles of sentencing has evolved during the past half-century. After articulating this thesis, one which has been more fully developed elsewhere, an assessment is made of the extent to which the more modern concepts of sentencing have been embodied in public policy as enunciated in statutes and court decisions, particularly decisions interpreting constitutional requirements. This examination reveals tha the existing rules and practices concerning imprisonment for fines and costs reflect uneasy compromises between competing policies and that these rules and practices are largely holdovers from an earlier …


Habeas Corpus Proceedings In The Supreme Court Of Texas., Joe Greenhill, Martin D. Beirne Jr. Mar 1969

Habeas Corpus Proceedings In The Supreme Court Of Texas., Joe Greenhill, Martin D. Beirne Jr.

St. Mary's Law Journal

Writs of habeas corpus, anchored both in the common law and Constitution of Texas, are vitally important to secure the freedom of those wrongfully imprisoned. However, minimal literature on the subject exists to assist attorneys who must prepare and present an application for writ of habeas corpus to the Supreme Court of Texas. To address the gap in literature, this article lays out the process attorneys should follow when filing a writ of habeas corpus. The most important items which should be brought before the Court are: (1) a motion for leave to file the application; (2) the application for …


Due Process And The Juvenile Offender., Carlos Cadena Mar 1969

Due Process And The Juvenile Offender., Carlos Cadena

St. Mary's Law Journal

For over sixty years, courts consistently found notions of due process inapplicable in juvenile proceedings. The goal of the juvenile court movement was to establish systems of education and protection of errant children, rather than deterrence and retribution. To accomplish these results, the juvenile court was shorn of all resemblance to criminal courts. Public hearings were to be avoided and the intervention of counsel was not required, since the juvenile judge represented both the child and the state. However, it became clear that children were receiving the protection of the state because they engaged in criminal conduct and with little …
