Legal Aspects Of Prison Riots, Ira P. Robbins Dec 1981

Legal Aspects Of Prison Riots, Ira P. Robbins

Ira P. Robbins

Introduction: Riots are a recurrent phenomenon in American prisons. In the 1950s and the early 1970s, major riots erupted in prisons across the country, and many have occurred in the past several years.' Riots will continue to occur as long as the dominant function of prisons is the custodial confinement of inmates. As one commentator explains, "The way to make a strong bomb is to build a strong perimeter and generate pressure inside. Similarly, riots occur where ... pressures and demands are generated in the presence of strong custodial confinement."

When such a bomb detonates and a prison riot erupts, …

The Cry Of Wolfish In The Federal Courts: The Future Of Federal Judicial Intervention In Prison Administration, Ira P. Robbins Dec 1979

The Cry Of Wolfish In The Federal Courts: The Future Of Federal Judicial Intervention In Prison Administration, Ira P. Robbins

Ira P. Robbins

Introduction: In Bell v. Wolfish, the United States Supreme Court held that, with respect to conditions or restrictions having no specific constitutional source for protection, a pretrial detainee in a federal correctional center has a right under the due process clause of the fifth amendment to be free from any punitive conditions or restrictions during detention. The Court further held that all of the challenged practices and conditions were valid because they were rationally related to the legitimate non-punitive purposes of the detention center. Thus, the correctional facility could place two detainees in a cell built for one, prohibit …

Changing The Public Drunkenness Laws: The Impact Of Decriminalization, David Aaronson Dec 1977

Changing The Public Drunkenness Laws: The Impact Of Decriminalization, David Aaronson

David Aaronson

Laws that decriminalize public drunkenness continue to use the police as the major intake agent for public inebriates under the "new" public health model of detoxification and treatment. Assuming that decriminalization introduces many disincentives to police intervention using legally sanctioned procedures, we hypothesize that it will be fol- lowed by a statistically significant decline in the number of public inebriates formally handled by the police in the manner designated by the "law in the books." Using an "interrupted time-series quasi- experiment" based on a "stratified multiple-group single-I design," we confirm this hypothesis for Washington, D.C., and Minneapolis, Minnesota. However, through …

A Reconsideration Of The Fourth Amendment's Doctrine Of Search Incident To Arrest.Pdf, David Aaronson Dec 1974

A Reconsideration Of The Fourth Amendment's Doctrine Of Search Incident To Arrest.Pdf, David Aaronson

David Aaronson

INTRODUCTION: The doctrine of search incident to arrest provides that, as an incident to every lawful full custody arrest, law enforcement officers have an automatic right to conduct a thorough search of the arrestee and the area within his immediate control.' Although the Supreme Court has stated that the search incident to arrest exception to the fourth amendment's general requirement of a search warrant has been "settled from its first enunciation," the doctrine should be reexamined in terms of constitutional jurisprudence.

A Handbook On Sentencing, Brian Slattery Dec 1971

A Handbook On Sentencing, Brian Slattery

Brian Slattery

This book aims to show that sentencing, like any other area of the law, is governed by reasonably well-defined principles and rules. Although these rules are known to any experienced judge and are frequently invoked in judgments, they have never been organized into an explicit and coherent system and have suffered from this neglect. This book provides not only better access to the rules but also a logical framework within which they can be discussed and applied. While the work has specific application to Tanzania, it should be of use throughout East and Central Africa, whose nations have similar penal …
