Judicial Notice: An Essay Concerning Human Misunderstanding, E. F. Roberts
Judicial Notice: An Essay Concerning Human Misunderstanding, E. F. Roberts
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
Articles limning the law pertaining to judicial notice are legion, and the footnotes which have been cite checked by generations of law review editors must number in the thousands. These articles assume that reason, properly employed, produces correct answers. They assume that disagreements can be resolved by reason, because it is self-evident that any problem, once identified, can be solved. Reflected here are the presuppositions of lawyers brought up in the Western legal tradition.
What if one were to doubt that reason necessarily governed the behavior of lawyers? What if one doubted as well that all problems were susceptible to …
History As Ideology In The Basic Property Course, Gregory S. Alexander
History As Ideology In The Basic Property Course, Gregory S. Alexander
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
Why has history played such a prominent role in the basic property course in the twentieth century? Such a loaded question requires some explanation. Legal history is doubtless used in all the first-year common-law courses, but I have the impression that since Langdell's time it has been more conspicuous in property than in the other basic courses. At least let us provisionally accept this rather dogmatic assertion in order to examine the more interesting questions: what function has the historical perspective served in property, and what other function might history serve in the course?

An Analysis Of Public Attitudes Toward The Insanity Defense, Valerie P. Hans
An Analysis Of Public Attitudes Toward The Insanity Defense, Valerie P. Hans
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
Results from a public opinion survey of knowledge, attitudes, and support for the insanity defense indicate that people dislike the insanity defense for both retributive and utilitarian reasons: they want insane law-breakers punished, and they believe that insanity defense procedures fail to protect the public. However, people vastly overestimate the use and success of the insanity plea. Several attitudinal and demographic variables that other researchers have found to be associated with people's support for the death penalty and perceptions of criminal sentencing are also related to support for the insanity defense. Implications for public policy are discussed.
The Conduct Of Voir Dire: A Psychological Analysis, Valerie P. Hans
The Conduct Of Voir Dire: A Psychological Analysis, Valerie P. Hans
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
The voir dire process in jury selection, in which the prospective jurors are questioned about their possible biases in the case, has come under increasing scrutiny in recent years. This article discusses psychological research and its implications for the conduct of the voir dire. The research indicates that individual, sequestered, open-ended questioning on issues directly relevant to the trial is the superior method for uncovering bias in prospective jurors. Furthermore, adversary attorneys appear to have a modest edge over judges in the detection of prejudice. The author notes that these findings must be balanced against other interests served by the …
