When Guilt Should Be Irrelevant: Government Overreaching As A Bar To Reprosecution Under The Double Jeopardy Clause After Oregon V. Kennedy, James F. Ponsoldt Nov 1983

When Guilt Should Be Irrelevant: Government Overreaching As A Bar To Reprosecution Under The Double Jeopardy Clause After Oregon V. Kennedy, James F. Ponsoldt

Scholarly Works

This article examines the effect of Oregon v. Kennedy on the Burger Court's double jeopardy jurisprudence in cases where government misconduct has interfered with the integrity of a first trial. The article proposes the complete elimination of current distinctions between mistrial and appellate reversal cases for double jeopardy analysis, on the ground that those distinctions no longer have intellectual or practical support. Moreover, against the contention of the Court in Oregon v. Kennedy that any test for overreaching necessarily would be standardless, this article proposes the adoption of a "plain error" standard. Under this test, "plain" government error, engaged in …

In Favor Of Capital Punishment: A Blending Of Philosophical Perspectives, James Charles Donnelly Oct 1983

In Favor Of Capital Punishment: A Blending Of Philosophical Perspectives, James Charles Donnelly

Institute for the Humanities Theses

There has been little intellectual support for the average American's view of the proper relationship between L' crime and punishment. This text is an effort to philosophically define and defend this view. Chapters one and two deal with teleological theories and justification for systems and rules of practices. I first discuss the historical relationship of man to the state, showing the necessity of and providing a basis for civil authority and law and showing both to be based on social utility. This accomplished, a teleological justification of a system of punishment is presented. Chapter three discusses retribution as the deontological …

Mens Rea In Corpore Reo: An Exploration Of The Rapists Charter, M. R. Goode Oct 1983

Mens Rea In Corpore Reo: An Exploration Of The Rapists Charter, M. R. Goode

Dalhousie Law Journal

The issue of rape has long been at the forefront of the feminist movement. Legal doctrine and legal procedure relevant to rape have been strongly attacked by a variety of critics.' The most obvious recent trend has been a movement from the traditional liberal concern with the protection of the accused from unjustified conviction, to victim-oriented efforts which are designed to ensure that the number of guilty offenders who evade responsibility for rape is reduced as much as possible. 2 The bases of calls for victim orientation have ranged from the view, most eloquently expressed by Susan Brownmiller, that the …


Directing The Development Of A University Centre Of Criminology, John Li. J. Edwards Oct 1983

Directing The Development Of A University Centre Of Criminology, John Li. J. Edwards

Dalhousie Law Journal

The original sod out of which the University of Toronto's Centre of Criminology grew was a proposal that I drew up while teaching a course in criminology as part of the LL.B. curriculum in the Faculty of Law at Dalhousie University in 1958-59.1 The proposal reviewed the extent of criminological teaching and research in Canada, and drew particular attention to the lack of implementation of the recommendations of the Fauteux Committee - a committee established in 1956 by the Canadian federal government to study the country's penal system and to make recommendations for change and improvement. 2 In its report, …
