The Quiet Revolution In The Criminal Law - A Foreword, Jack G. Day Jan 1974

The Quiet Revolution In The Criminal Law - A Foreword, Jack G. Day

Cleveland State Law Review

Given the fundamental importance of procedural due process in criminal law, and conceding the impact of case law developments of the past decade and one-half, the movements manifest in decisional law, while spectacular, have necessarily been piecemeal and have tended to obscure the broad substantive and procedural reforms which have been initiated by that general address possible only through legislation and the rule making processes. Nonetheless, quietly, and almost unnoticed outside a relatively small circle within the legal profession and related disciplines, a seismic reform has been going on. The present symposium is devoted to the description and analysis of …


Surviving Justice: Prisoners' Rights To Be Free From Physical Assault, Robert Plotkin Jan 1974

Surviving Justice: Prisoners' Rights To Be Free From Physical Assault, Robert Plotkin

Cleveland State Law Review

A sentence to prision invovles much more than simple incarceration and its attendant withdrawal of freedom of movement. Indeed, as recent developments indicate, a sentence to confinement in most penal institutions involves a life and death struggle to avoid at tacks, rapes, and brutality from fellow inmates as well as from correctional authorities. ... The National Advisory Commission on Criminal Justice Standards and Goals recognized the problem in recommending a comprehensive model standard which would require correctional officials, the only state authority "in a position to protect inmates, to take protective measures on the inmates' behalf, and to compensate those …


Some Themes In The Proposed Federal Rules Of Evidence, Paul F. Rothstein Jan 1974

Some Themes In The Proposed Federal Rules Of Evidence, Paul F. Rothstein

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

Although the Federal Rules of Evidence are under consideration by Congress, it is unlikely that many of their major themes will be reversed. The present article examines some of these themes as they appear in the Supreme Court-approved draft. The aim is merely to make more explicit the effects of the Rules and suggest some questions for study.

Recent Treaties, James H. Bloem Jan 1974

Recent Treaties, James H. Bloem

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

To obtain information on the financial dealings of organized crime in Switzerland, the United States must show both probable cause and the absence of a reasonable possibility of conviction without the information. Thus, Switzerland has preserved its prudent and traditional requirement of secrecy with respect to transactions of those who utilize its financial institutions. Because the Treaty was drafted in two different legal environments, conflicts may rise under it. The limitation on use of any disclosed information to investigations or proceedings for which the information originally was granted does not coincide with the United States rule of evidence that allows …

The Individualization Of Excusing Conditions, George P. Fletcher Jan 1974

The Individualization Of Excusing Conditions, George P. Fletcher

Faculty Scholarship

The excusing conditions of the criminal law are variations of the theme "I couldn't help myself' or "I didn't mean to do it." In this respect the defenses known as necessity, duress, insanity and mistake of law are but extensions of homely, routine apologies for causing harm and violating the rules of social and family life. While we use the plea "I couldn't help myself" to cover the full range of excusing circumstances, each of the formal excuses of the criminal law has a limited sphere. As a general matter, these spheres are dictated by the type of circumstances rendering …
