The Scope Of The Sixth Amendment: Who Is A Criminal Defendant?, David Rossman Jan 1975

The Scope Of The Sixth Amendment: Who Is A Criminal Defendant?, David Rossman

Faculty Scholarship

When the Supreme Court, in Argersinger v. Hamlin, extended the right to counsel to misdemeanor defendants facing imprisonment, it raised the prospect of an eventual expansion of this right to defendants in all criminal prosecutions. This expansion appears to be the probable culmination of the historical development of the right to counsel. While prediction from a trend is never fully satisfactory, a trend toward such expansion exists nonetheless. The interpretation of the scope of the sixth amendment right to counsel as applied to the states has evolved from application to defendants in capital cases, to application to those whose lack …


Kauper's 'Judicial Examination Of The Accused' Forty Years Later—Some Comments On A Remarkable Article, Yale Kamisar Nov 1974

Kauper's 'Judicial Examination Of The Accused' Forty Years Later—Some Comments On A Remarkable Article, Yale Kamisar

Articles

For a long time before Professor Paul Kauper wrote "Judicial Examination of the Accused" in 1932, and for a long time thereafter, the "legal mind" shut out the de facto inquisitorial system that characterized American criminal procedure. Paul Kauper could not look away. He recognized the "naked, ugly facts" (p. 1224) and was determined to do something about them -more than thirty years before Escobedo v. Illinois' or Miranda v. Arizona.2

The Court, The Constitution, And Chief Justice Burger, William F. Swindler Apr 1974

The Court, The Constitution, And Chief Justice Burger, William F. Swindler

Vanderbilt Law Review

Although the constitutional crisis of 1973 has not yet demanded a definitive response from the Supreme Court, it obviously has established a landmark in the ultimate history of Warren Burger's Chief Justiceship. While the unprecedented confrontation between executive and judiciary was not carried beyond the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, Burger's old court,' and although the prospective confrontation between executive and Congress did not--at least in its first round-- reach a stage of review on the merits, the questions presented went to the cornerstones of Anglo-American constitutional theory itself. The case of Vice President Agnew raised issues …

Civil Procedure--Service of Process--California Long-Arm Statutes Abrogate State's Immunity Doctrine

Seeking recovery of money owed him by defendant European corporations;' plaintiff brought suit in a California state court.While attending federal district court in Florida for the sole purpose of giving a deposition in a trademark infringement suit instituted by one of the corporations, defendants' representative was personally served with process in the California action on behalf of himself and the defendant corporations. Defendants moved to quash service of process on the ground that the immunity rule prohibited service of civil process upon a witness in attendance in a court outside …

The Response To Furman: Can Legislators Breathe Life Back Into Death, Carol Irvin, Howard E. Rose Jan 1974

The Response To Furman: Can Legislators Breathe Life Back Into Death, Carol Irvin, Howard E. Rose

Cleveland State Law Review

In the eighteen months since the Supreme Court of the United States struck down capital punishment in Furman v. Georgia twenty-three states have reinstated the death penalty. While the Supreme Court has not yet heard arguments concerning the constitutionality of these statutes, their validity will determine the fate of the forty-four persons currently awaiting execution in eight states. It is the purpose of this comment to consider the statutes reinstating capital punishment, in light of Furman.


Surviving Justice: Prisoners' Rights To Be Free From Physical Assault, Robert Plotkin Jan 1974

Surviving Justice: Prisoners' Rights To Be Free From Physical Assault, Robert Plotkin

Cleveland State Law Review

A sentence to prision invovles much more than simple incarceration and its attendant withdrawal of freedom of movement. Indeed, as recent developments indicate, a sentence to confinement in most penal institutions involves a life and death struggle to avoid at tacks, rapes, and brutality from fellow inmates as well as from correctional authorities. ... The National Advisory Commission on Criminal Justice Standards and Goals recognized the problem in recommending a comprehensive model standard which would require correctional officials, the only state authority "in a position to protect inmates, to take protective measures on the inmates' behalf, and to compensate those …


The Right To Counsel And Due Process In Probation Revocation Proceedings: Gagnon V. Scarpelli, Douglas C. Jenkins Jan 1974

The Right To Counsel And Due Process In Probation Revocation Proceedings: Gagnon V. Scarpelli, Douglas C. Jenkins

Cleveland State Law Review

On May 14, 1973, the worst fear of at least one commentator was borne out by the opinion of the Supreme Court in Gagnon v. Scarpelli. Justice Powell, writing for the Court, recognized certain due process rights of the individual who has been convicted and placed on probation. The Court refused to adopt a per se right to representation by counsel as an element of due process in probation revocation proceedings, however. The opinion has left the meaning and importance of due process in grave doubt, has retarded the progression of penal-correctional reform, and has insured a heavy docket for …


The Fourth Amendment As A Way Of Talking About People: A Study Of Robinson And Matlock, James Boyd White Jan 1974

The Fourth Amendment As A Way Of Talking About People: A Study Of Robinson And Matlock, James Boyd White

Articles

One way to regard what the Supreme Court has done in the cases it has decided under the Fourth Amendment is to say that it has created a specialized discourse of adjudication, a language in which it can talk about and dispose of the repeated conflicts that arise between an officer engaged in the process of crime control and a citizen upon whose freedom or security he intrudes. The events which bring these two figures together are bewildering in their variety and complexity, and the claims on each side are deeply felt and strenuously made. It has not been easy …

Elevation Of Entrapment To A Constitutional Defense, Robert H. Thomson Iii Jan 1974

Elevation Of Entrapment To A Constitutional Defense, Robert H. Thomson Iii

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

The issue of entrapment arises initially as a defense when a person is accused of committing a criminal act in which government agents solicited, and perhaps actively participated in, the conduct for which the defendant stands accused. Classic entrapment situations occur when law enforcement officers, through agents or informers, solicit an illegal transaction, such as the sale of contraband. The evidence thereby obtained is used to support the prosecution of the individual accepting the solicitation. Solicitation is an important technique of law enforcement because evidence of illegal transactions is often impossible to obtain by other methods. Certain uses of solicitation …


New Looks At An Ancient Writ: Habeas Corpus Reexamined, Andrew P. Miller, Robert E. Shepherd Jr. Jan 1974

New Looks At An Ancient Writ: Habeas Corpus Reexamined, Andrew P. Miller, Robert E. Shepherd Jr.

University of Richmond Law Review

The traditional characterization of the writ of habeas corpus as an original ... civil remedy for the enforcement of the right to personal liberty, rather than as a stage of the state criminal proceedings or as an appeal therefrom . . . cannot be permitted to defeat the manifest federal policy that federal constitutional rights of personal liberty shall not be denied without the fullest opportunity for plenary federal judicial review.
