Minimum Wages For Prisoners: Legal Obstacles And Suggested Reforms, James J. Maiwurm, Wendy S. Maiwurm
Minimum Wages For Prisoners: Legal Obstacles And Suggested Reforms, James J. Maiwurm, Wendy S. Maiwurm
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
The growing literature on prisoners' rights has not yet focused on inmates' demands for minimum wages and the justification for such demands. This article explains why statutory minimum wage coverage should be extended to inmates, discusses the judicial treatment of prison labor and the minimum wage question, advocates adoption of legislation now pending in Congress, and suggests further legislative reform necessary to implement the minimum wage proposal. Many conditions in our prison system are undoubtedly more harmful and degrading than lack of meaningful wages. This article focuses on only one feasible reform, not on the priorities of prison reform in …
Legal Rights In A Juvenile Correctional Institution, Matthew L. Myers
Legal Rights In A Juvenile Correctional Institution, Matthew L. Myers
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
This article focuses on the effect on juvenile correctional institutions of the erosion of the "hands-off" doctrine and the introduction of procedural safeguards in the juvenile justice system. In so doing, the article examines the difficulties inherent in any attempt to reform institutional practices and procedures to accommodate the goals of the juvenile correctional model. In the juvenile context, the extent to which fundamental rights need or may be abrogated to allow the institution freedom to rehabilitate and treat its inmates is crucial. Therefore, this article examines three areas involving fundamental constitutional rights: imposition of punitive segregation, freedom of communication, …

Rule-Making And The Police, Carl Mcgowan
Rule-Making And The Police, Carl Mcgowan
Michigan Law Review
That remarkable man, Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, in whose name and by whose providence we are met on this occasion, had many profound perceptions about the nature of law-making. Except for the violence of the Civil War in his youth, his life was largely lived at a time and in a society which seem simple and benevolent by comparison with our own. Some of his generalizations, nevertheless, continue to define accurately the limitations under which we confront the complexities presently assailing us on every side. This is notably true of the administration of criminal justice.

Indigents, Hospital Admissions And Equal Protection, Charles S. Derousie
Indigents, Hospital Admissions And Equal Protection, Charles S. Derousie
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
The author surveyed ten hospitals in each of ten states, including hospitals of varying sizes and classifications. Five of the forty-five replies indicated the hospital did not admit all indigents in need of medical care. The primary reason given was that prospective patients not covered by hospital insurance or government programs such as Medicaid or Medicare were usually unable to produce a required preadmission deposit. This practice of requiring a preadmission deposit seems to be common.
A Suggested Legislative Device For Dealing With Abuses Of Criminal Records, Walter W. Steele Jr.
A Suggested Legislative Device For Dealing With Abuses Of Criminal Records, Walter W. Steele Jr.
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
There are pitfalls apparent in ameliorating the overuse of criminal records. For example, techniques of expunging, sealing, and limiting access do not affect legal status. No amount of expunging, or sealing, or limiting access is truly useful unless civil rights, such as the right to vote, are restored as well. Another problem is the inherent breadth of a criminal record, which can involve acts or allegations of acts ranging from traffic offenses to murder or rape. Thus, it is difficult to draw precise guidelines delineating those parts of the record which may be legitimately used. The apparently illegitimate use of …
Blacks, Due Process And Efficiency In The Clash Of Values As The Supreme Court Moves To The Right, Henry Mcgee
Blacks, Due Process And Efficiency In The Clash Of Values As The Supreme Court Moves To The Right, Henry Mcgee
Faculty Articles
Professor McGee examines the move by the Supreme Court to limit rights for minority defendants. Led by its law enforcement-oriented Chief Justice, an emerging majority of the Court has managed to reverse or seriously abridge precedents - both recent and time-honored - which ensured some fairness for minority defendants. Professor McGee addresses the implications of these decisions, and how they have affected due process for Black defendants.
The Problems And Promise Of Black Men Of Law, Henry Mcgee
The Problems And Promise Of Black Men Of Law, Henry Mcgee
Faculty Articles
Professor McGee discusses the Black legal community's fight from the 1930s through the 1950s that eliminated the constitutional support of racial segregation and discrimination. Given the monumental obstacles which historically have plagued black lawyers, it is remarkable how many have succeeded despite the discrimination. While this article touches on some of the difficulties and limitations of the black bar, it must be stressed that there is a tradition of leadership and service among black lawyers that provides a solid foundation for the relatively large numbers of advocates that return to their communities. Building on this tradition of leadership, there are …

Law And Sociology: Some Issues For The 70'S, Albert J. Reiss Jr.
Law And Sociology: Some Issues For The 70'S, Albert J. Reiss Jr.
University of Richmond Law Review
The relationship between sociology and the lawhas not been a very stable one. It has barely passed from the stage of flirtation to that of courtship, though the dependence of each upon the other seems obvious enough to some scholars in each discipline. The two communities have long seemed content to live in symbiotic rather than commensal relations. There are a number of reasons why it is difficult to consummate a stable marriage at this time, if not in the long run.
The Riot Act Of 1968: Congress Rides A Trojan Horse, D. S. G.
The Riot Act Of 1968: Congress Rides A Trojan Horse, D. S. G.
Georgia Law Review
In the wake of civil disorders which depredated many of America's cities, and in response to public outrage at such events, Congress enacted the Riot Act of 1968. The statute proscribes a twofold event. To violate the statute, an individual must travel in interstate commerce, or use some facility thereof, with an intent to incite a riot, and at some later time that individual must perform an overt act in furtherance of his intent. Yet the statute is a rather feeble attempt to exorcise the violent reaction to the rampant racial and social evils which have permeated the twentieth century. …

Human Rights: A Tide In The Affairs Of Men, Paul G. Kauper
Human Rights: A Tide In The Affairs Of Men, Paul G. Kauper
Georgia Law Review
MANY movements are discernible in these turbulent days of social change and revolution. Not the least is a great tidal movement, global in its dimensions, for the articulation, extension and more effective vindication of human rights. The celebration in 1968 of the twentieth anniversary of the adoption by the United Nations Assembly of the Declaration of Human Rights riveted special attention on the human rights movement and makes this subject particularly appropriate. Since the phrasing is so apt to describe the situation, I hope I shall be forgiven for cribbing a part of Shakespeare's familiar sentence and using it in …
Reapportionment: Success Story Of The Warren Court, Robert B. Mckay
Reapportionment: Success Story Of The Warren Court, Robert B. Mckay
Michigan Law Review
The fascinating thing about this major engagement of the Warren Court is that the principal decisions came to the Court late-1962 and after. Although these decisions precipitated a revolution in the concept and practice of legislative representation at every level of government, they were implemented quickly and with surprisingly little dislocation. The following remarks are intended to report the fact of that adjustment and to explain, to the extent the phenomenon is now understandable, why the change was so easily accomplished. When compared with the delay in public acceptance of decisions in the other areas mentioned above, the success of …

Arrests In Civil Disturbances: Reflections On The Use Of Deadly Force In Riots, Henry Mcgee
Arrests In Civil Disturbances: Reflections On The Use Of Deadly Force In Riots, Henry Mcgee
Faculty Articles
Professor McGee examines the use of deadly force in quelling recurrent communal rioting of alienated black urban masses in 1968. Napoleon fired “grapeshot” into a rioting Parisian crowd in 1795, and while his brutality may have quieted the rioters it should not be set as an example for our modern day police forces. Deadly force used against large numbers of citizens, who just prior to the riots were for the most part law-abiding and peaceful, can have crushing social consequences. In this article Professor McGee discusses police departmental policy, the limits of deadly force in arrests, excessive force and liability, …

Equal Protection For The Illegitimate, Harry D. Krause
Equal Protection For The Illegitimate, Harry D. Krause
Michigan Law Review
In our time the general constitutional phrase promising equal protection has become specific law. It has been used to invalidate many state statutes which discriminated on the basis of race or other arbitrary criteria. Definite rules have been developed for this process of invalidation. These rules will be applied below to state and federal legislation that favors the legitimate child and discriminates against the illegitimate in matters of inheritance rights, rights of support, rights of name and custody, and social welfare. The question that will be asked is whether state and federal legislation may constitutionally discriminate between children on the …
