The Problem Of The Drinking Driver, Roger C. Cramton

Cornell Law Faculty Publications

Everyone talks about the drinking driver, and everyone thinks he knows what to do about him. But, Professor Cramton says, the scientifically reliable knowledge we now are acquiring indicates that our legal approaches of deterrence and punishment fail to strike at the heart of the problem and are ineffective. He offers some suggestions for a new course.

Appellate Review Of Legal But Excessive Sentences: A Comparative Study, Gerhard O.W. Mueller, Fre Le Poole

Vanderbilt Law Review

Classical penology was conceived in France in the eighteenth century, and then eclipsed all over the world in the nineteenth, when Lombroso conjured up the picture of the born criminal. It was finally laid to rest in the United States in the twentieth century. Its basic tenet had been simple enough: the legislature in its infinite wisdom would seek and find the appropriate punishment for every crime.This can be accomplished if a crime is defined narrowly enough, perhaps by the creation of subcategories of that crime, so as to encompass all potential perpetrators who will each incur the same amount …

Crime, The Public, And The Crime Commission: A Critical Review Of The Challenge Of Crime In A Free Society, Warren Lehman

Michigan Law Review

What is the appropriate set for the mind when it mulls the report of the President's Commission on Law Enforcement and the Administration of Justice? Should it be fine grind, as is the professor's when he asks a student in his first class in law school to state the case of Regina v. Dudley & Stephens? Or should the running wheel be raised from the bedstone, as is so often the case when the professor turns to review the work of a colleague? While the latter may have the appeal of habit, there are, I think, three important reasons …

A Reasoned Approach To The Reform Of Sex Offense Legislation, Ronald B. Schram

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

Currently there is a widespread movement toward the revision of state criminal codes. The goals of such an undertaking are varied: (1) to reduce the size of the criminal law by eliminating inconsistent, overlapping, or obsolete provisions; (2) to phrase the prohibitions in clear and concise language; (3) to introduce more modern approaches to the definition and treatment of criminal offenses; and (4) to harmonize the penalty imposed for a particular act with the severity of the act and the penalty for other acts. This paper will concentrate on sex offenses in an attempt to understand the legislative process of …

Survey Of Abortion Reform Legislation, Anon

Washington Law Review

Abortion statutes seek two ends: 1) a definition of the crime of abortion and 2) the creation of a procedure for implementing the statute definition. Definition is accomplished by declaring purposeful miscarriage unlawful except in certain generalized situations. The procedure then designates who determines when an excepting situation exists. Therefore, the decision to terminate a pregnancy raises two issues—who shall make the decision and on what bases. This note will examine the impact of recent abortion reform legislation on these issues

Disposition Of The Irresponsible: Protection Following Commitment, Travis H. Lewin

Michigan Law Review

Each year more of our fellow citizens are involuntarily committed to a mental institution of one sort or another than are incarcerated for the commission of a crime. To those committed, the walls and barred windows of the hospital, as well as the treatment and mode of living, are probably not significantly different from those of a prison. This is particularly the case with those confined for treatment by court order or by some special statutory procedure following acquittal of a crime on grounds of insanity. Yet these mentally ill, even after perpetrating what would otherwise have been a criminal …
