Hearings On Jury Bias Or Misconduct, Ronald J. Bacigal
Hearings On Jury Bias Or Misconduct, Ronald J. Bacigal
Law Faculty Publications
In the recent cases of Smith v. Phillips, and Rushen v. Spain, the United States Supreme Court recognized that judicial review of ex parte contacts with a sitting jury may raise a number of separate but interrelated constitutional rights: (1) the right to an impartial jury; (2) the right to a due process post-trial hearing on jury bias; (3) a possible due process right to a mid-trial hearing on jury bias; (4) the defendant's right to be present at such mid· trial hearings; and (5) the right to be represented at such mid-trial hearings. As Justice Stevens noted in his …

Cameras In The Courts: Can We Trust The Research?, Dan Slater, Valerie P. Hans
Cameras In The Courts: Can We Trust The Research?, Dan Slater, Valerie P. Hans
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
In several recent court cases, television viewers throughout the nation were able to see excerpts of actual trial testimony on network newscasts. These opportunities for camera coverage have come about as a result of the U.S. Supreme Court's 1981 decision in Chandler v. Florida. In that case the Court ruled that each state was free to determine whether to permit "extended media coverage," including camera coverage, in its courts, and to set appropriate guidelines for such coverage. Before adopting permanent rules for camera coverage, most states have conducted one year tests — which they have called "experiments" — during …
Jury Vetting: The Jury Under Attack, Peter Duff, Mark Findlay
Jury Vetting: The Jury Under Attack, Peter Duff, Mark Findlay
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
The English jury has recently been undergoing various alterations. These changes have their roots in assumptions, often not clearly identified, about the nature and purpose of the jury within the criminal justice system. Once the purpose and ideals of the jury system are identified, and there may be arguments about what they are,' it becomes apparent that there may be a conflict about how they should be put into practice. The state and its agencies may take one view whilst others may differ. An example of one such conflict is the controversy over the newly discovered practice of 'jury vetting'.
The Public Right Of Access To Juvenile Delinquency Hearings, Michigan Law Review
The Public Right Of Access To Juvenile Delinquency Hearings, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
Despite the differences between the criminal and juvenile court systems, the Supreme Court has extended many criminal procedural safeguards to juvenile delinquency hearings. The Court does not, however, "automatically and preemptorily" apply every procedural safeguard to juvenile hearings; rather, it carefully examines the criminal trial standard in the context of delinquency hearings. Adopting a similar approach, this Note considers the implications of a constitutional right of access to juvenile delinquency hearings. Part I examines the right of access announced in Globe Newspaper and Richmond Newspapers v. Virginia. Part II looks at the juvenile justice system and argues that extension …
Improving Jury Deliberations: A Reconsideration Of Lesser Included Offense Instructions, Michael D. Craig
Improving Jury Deliberations: A Reconsideration Of Lesser Included Offense Instructions, Michael D. Craig
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
This Note approves of efforts to avoid hung juries by giving lesser included offense instructions but opposes those instructions that restrict juror decisions and coerce minority jurors. Rather, this Note offers a lesser included offense instruction that promotes flexibility and jury compromise without undermining the deliberative process. Part I describes the problem of hung juries and how courts have tried to prevent them with restrictive lesser included offense instructions. Part II analyzes the coercive impact of restrictive lesser included offense instructions and concludes that an instruction conditioning deliberations upon individual juror disagreement better promotes compromises on the merits while reducing …
Habeas Corpus Review Of State Trial Court Failure To Give Lesser Included Offense Instructions, Michael H. Hoffheimer
Habeas Corpus Review Of State Trial Court Failure To Give Lesser Included Offense Instructions, Michael H. Hoffheimer
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
This Note advocates that federal courts review state criminal convictions in habeas corpus proceedings when lesser included offense instructions are available under state law but were not given. Part I demonstrates that granting such review conforms to the modern jurisdictional scope of federal collateral review because failure to give the instructions undermines the fact-finding function of juries and is therefore unconstitutional. Part II analyzes the proper standard of review and determines that the federal interest in protecting the reliability of the fact-finding process should prevail over any conflicting state interest in refusing to give lesser included offense instructions. Part II …

The Right To Bail In United States Extradition Proceedings, Carl A. Valenstein
The Right To Bail In United States Extradition Proceedings, Carl A. Valenstein
Michigan Journal of International Law
This note examines the judicial rationale for denying bail in extradition proceedings except in special circumstances. The author maintains that the courts apply the special circumstances rule inconsistently. Moreover, a better balance should be struck between the interests of the accused and the interests of the United States Government. This can be accomplished by granting the accused in an extradition proceeding the same right to bail before a final order granting extradition as exists under the federal bail statute.

Protecting The Rights Of The Requested Person In Extradition Proceedings: An Argument For A Humanitarian Exception, Leslie Anderson
Protecting The Rights Of The Requested Person In Extradition Proceedings: An Argument For A Humanitarian Exception, Leslie Anderson
Michigan Journal of International Law
This article will first define the types of post-extradition treatment which requested persons have raised as requiring judicial attention. It will next survey judicial responses to these claims and then consider the scope of executive review. The article concludes that the courts have exaggerated the range of executive discretion to deny extradition. As extradition currently operates in the United States, there is the serious possibility that a bona fide claim of unfair treatment would not receive adequate consideration by either the judicial or executive branch.

An Appellate Court Dilemma And A Solution Through Subject Matter Organization, Daniel J. Meador
An Appellate Court Dilemma And A Solution Through Subject Matter Organization, Daniel J. Meador
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
The recent litigation explosion presents a two-pronged dilemma for American appellate courts. If, on the one hand, the number of appellate judges is not expanded to keep abreast of growing case loads, there is a risk that courts will rely too heavily on professional staff, thereby watering down the decision-making process. If, on the other hand, the number of judges is proportionately increased with the growth in appellate litigation, the number of three-judge decisional units will also increase, thereby threatening predictability and uniformity in the law of the jurisdiction. This Article undertakes to explain that dilemma and to offer a …

Washington Law Review
During a prosecution for attempted murder, the trial judge determined that detailed reporting of the pretrial suppression hearing would jeopardize the defendant's right to a fair trial. Judge Swedberg therefore conditioned the media's attendance on their agreement to abide by the 1974 Washington State Bench-Bar-Press Guidelines. Federated Publications, publisher of the Bellingham Herald, refused to sign the agreement and refused to allow its reporters to attend solely in a nonprofessional capacity. It argued that conditioning media attendance on compliance with the Bench-Bar-Press Guidelines constituted a prior restraint and that the trial judge exceeded his power by excluding nonsigning media representatives. …
Methodological Issues In The Evaluation Of "Experiments" With Cameras In The Courts, Dan Slater, Valerie P. Hans
Methodological Issues In The Evaluation Of "Experiments" With Cameras In The Courts, Dan Slater, Valerie P. Hans
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
Evaluations of "experiments" of extended media coverage of the courts, i.e., cameras in the courts, have relied upon survey research. The authors argue that such evaluations have been inadequate and future evaluations need to compare conventional media coverage vs. extended media coverage using field experimental research designs.
Pretrial Procedure Under The Massachusetts Rules Of Criminal Procedure, Eric D. Blumenson, Eva Nilsen
Pretrial Procedure Under The Massachusetts Rules Of Criminal Procedure, Eric D. Blumenson, Eva Nilsen
Faculty Scholarship
The Massachusetts Rules of Criminal Procedure became effective on July 1, 1979. While many of their provisions helpfully codify previously existing practice and case law, the Rules have in some areas effected a major transformation of criminal procedure. This article examines the changes wrought by the Rules in the pretrial arena, with emphasis on those areas that remain somewhat unfamiliar to the practitioner or untested against constitutional challenge in the courts. While the Rules appear to have done an admirable job of simplifying and rationalizing the criminal trial process, their emphasis on mutuality and reciprocity have in some cases created …

Court Rulemaking In Washington, Hugh Spitzer
Court Rulemaking In Washington, Hugh Spitzer
Seattle University Law Review
This article suggests that Washington court rule controversies arise from the lack of a clear, constitutionally established apportionment of rulemaking powers between the legislative and judicial branches, and that there is a lack of procedures providing adequate internal safeguards and accountability. This article first reviews the classical separation of powers doctrine. The discussion then focuses on internal procedural safeguards that also serve within each power center to discourage arbitrary or ill-considered action. This article then reviews the history of court rulemaking in Washington and in other jurisdictions and suggests that from a logical view, the scope of sole judicial power …
