Constitutional Law - Attorney's Loyalty Fitness, W. Wade Berryhill

Law Faculty Publications

One may reasonably conclude that a state may escape invalidation of a statute which apparently exceeds permissible Bill of Rights limits if the state shows that the statute does not operatively mean what it appears to say, but rather requires only an allegiance to the Constitution, and secondly, that a state may properly make inquiries to determine the oath affirmant's sincerity and good faith.

Constitutional Law—Petty Offender's Right To Demand Trial By Jury: Petty Offenders Have Peers In Alaska—Baker V. City Of Fairbanks, 471 P.2d 386 (Alas. 1970), Anon

Washington Law Review

Procter J. Baker was charged with violation of a Fairbanks ordinance for the offense of assault and demanded a trial by jury in the district court. Baker contended that the holding of the United States Supreme Court in Duncan v. Louisiana was dispositive of his case and that he was entitled to a jury trial as a matter of constitutional right, even though the maximum possible punishment was limited to $600 fine or 60 days imprisonment or both. Upon the trial court's denial of his asserted right, Baker petitioned for direct review by the Alaska Supreme Court. The Alaska court …

Hawkins V. Town Of Shaw: The Court As City Manager, C. Ronald Ellington, Lawrence F. Jones

Scholarly Works

For over one hundred years Congress and the federal courts have pursued the goal of racial equality in the United States. In areas such as voting rights, public accommodations, and housing, Congress and the courts have interacted closely, with broad judicial interpretations upholding major remedial legislation. Moreover, when confronted by official state sources of racial discrimination, courts have traditionally responded to the clear command of the equal protection clause of the fourteenth amendment without awaiting congressional action. Brown v. Board of Education stands as perhaps the best known instance in which a court has, on its own, ordered the elimination …

Washington Law Review

Plaintiff, a physician, allegedly performed a "nontherapeutic" abortion upon a woman carrying an unquickened fetus and was subsequently prosecuted under the Wisconsin abortion statute. He brought suit in federal district court to enjoin enforcement of the statute and to obtain a declaratory judgment that the statute was unconstitutional. The injunction was denied, but the declaratory judgment was granted. Held: The state may not deprive a woman of her ninth amendment right to decide whether to carry or reject an unquickened child. Babbitz v. McCann, 310 F. Supp. 293 (E.D. Wis. 1970), appeal dismissed per curiam, 91 S. Ct. 12 (1970).

Criminal Procedure--Self-Incrimination--Harmless Error--Application Of The Harmless Error Doctrine To Violations Of Miranda: The California Experience, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

Using decisions of the appellate courts of California that have applied the federal harmless error rule to violations of Miranda v. Arizona and Escobedo v. Illinois, this Note will examine the logic and effects of the California application. However, the California experience can only be understood by first briefly describing the United States Supreme Court's decisions regarding harmless constitutional error and then showing the approaches taken by other states in their application of the harmless error rule to Miranda violations. Not only will this analysis put the California experience in its proper perspective, but it will also show the …

The Principle Of Nondivisiveness And The Constitutionality Of Public Aid To Parochial Schools, C. Ronald Ellington

Scholarly Works

The establishment clause issues in the three cases now before the Supreme Court [Tilton v. Richardson, Lemon v. Kurtzman, DiCenso v. Robinison] will be explored in this article in the light of a postulate and three derivative maxims which, it is suggested, are implicit in the Court's earlier religion clause cases, particularly Walz v. Tax Commission. It is the author's view that the establishment clause intends that government no be a divisive force in matters of religion and that analysis grounded in such a premise provides the surest delineation of the interests at stake in …
