Predicting The Complex Future Of Retroactivity In Massachusetts: Commonwealth V. Sylvain, Daniel Kanstroom
Predicting The Complex Future Of Retroactivity In Massachusetts: Commonwealth V. Sylvain, Daniel Kanstroom
Daniel Kanstroom
From the introduction: In Commonwealth v. Sylvain,466 Mass. 422 (2013), the SJC held that the requirements placed on criminal defense lawyers to properly advise defendants about certain immigration consequences enunciated in Padilla v. Kentucky, 559 U.S. 356 (2010) are retroactive to 1997. The SJC, relying both on the Sixth Amendment and on art. 12 of the Massachusetts Declaration of Rights, diverged from the U.S. Supreme Court on the retroactivity question. This very important—but rather esoteric—immigration law case may have profound implications regarding the retroactivity of recent holdings in such areas as public trial rights during jury selection and juvenile sentencing.
