Prosecution Without Representation, Douglas L. Colbert
Prosecution Without Representation, Douglas L. Colbert
Douglas L. Colbert
Nearly 50 years after the Supreme Court's landmark ruling in Gideon v. Wainwright established indigent defendants' constitutional right to counsel, poor people throughout the country still remain without a lawyer when first appearing before a judicial officer who determines pretrial liberty or bail. Absent counsel, low-income defendants unable to afford bail remain in jail for periods ranging from 3-70 days until assigned counsel appears in-court. Examining Walter Rothgery's wrongful prosecution, the article includes a national survey that informs readers about the limited right to counsel at the initial appearance and the extent of delay in each of the 50 states. …
"Waiving" Goodbye To Rights: Plea Bargaining And The Defense Dilemma Of Competent Representation, Jane Moriarty
"Waiving" Goodbye To Rights: Plea Bargaining And The Defense Dilemma Of Competent Representation, Jane Moriarty
Jane Campbell Moriarty
The proposed amendments to the ABA Criminal Justice Standards for Prosecutors and Defense Lawyers (“Proposed Standards”) address a number of problematic issues related to the roles of both prosecutors and defense attorneys. This Symposium Article considers waiver of rights in the context of the Standards, focusing on guilty pleas and the so-called “preconditions” that prosecutors generally require before even entertaining the defendant’s proffer, colloquially termed “Queen for a Day” agreements It reviews the development in the law since 1993, the changes in the practice since that time, and the proposed changes to the Standards. The article focuses on the complex …

Cell Phone Location Data And The Fourth Amendment: A Question Of Law, Not Fact, Susan Freiwald
Cell Phone Location Data And The Fourth Amendment: A Question Of Law, Not Fact, Susan Freiwald
Susan Freiwald
In a significant ruling in the fall of 2010, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals rejected the government’s claim that it could compel cell phone service providers to disclose customer records that indicate the cell towers with which a cell phone has communicated (cell phone location information or CSLI) without obtaining a warrant based on probable cause. In a break with past decisions, the court rejected application of a “third party rule,” under which cell phone users are seen to assume the risk that their providers will disclose location data without the protections of a warrant requirement. The court, however, …
The Timely Demise Of The Fourth Amendment Third Party Doctrine, Stephen E. Henderson
The Timely Demise Of The Fourth Amendment Third Party Doctrine, Stephen E. Henderson
Stephen E Henderson
In what may be a slightly premature obituary, in this response to a forthcoming paper by Matthew Tokson I argue that the Fourth Amendment third party doctrine "has at least taken ill, and it can be hoped it is an illness from which it will never recover." It is increasingly unpopular as a matter of state constitutional law, has long been assailed in scholarship but now thoughtful alternatives are percolating, and it cannot – or at least should not – withstand the pressures which technology and social norms are placing upon it. Even the Supreme Court seems loath to defend …
Promulgating Proportionality, William W. Berry Iii
Promulgating Proportionality, William W. Berry Iii
William W Berry III
Two lines of cases have dominated the Supreme Court’s Eighth Amendment death penalty jurisprudence: the Furman-Gregg line of cases emphasizes the need to adopt rules to eliminate the arbitrariness inherent in unguided capital sentencing by juries, while the Woodson-Lockett line of cases emphasizes the opposite concern - the need for juries to make individualized sentencing determinations - highlighting the inadequacy of rules. At first glance, these competing aims create some internal tension, if not outright conflict. In his concurrence in Walton v. Arizona, Justice Scalia argued that this conflict was irreconcilable: “[t]he latter requirement [individualized factual determinations] quite obviously destroys …
