Scarlet Letter Punishment: Yesterday's Outlawed Penalty Is Today's Probation Condition, Leonore H. Tavill Jan 1988

Scarlet Letter Punishment: Yesterday's Outlawed Penalty Is Today's Probation Condition, Leonore H. Tavill

Cleveland State Law Review

The use of alternatives has sparked a whole host of new issues. The most significant of these new issues is the determination of who should or should not receive probation' and what kind of probation condition can be justified for certain criminals. Desperation, indefinite statutory provisions, and the resulting judicial discretion afforded to those on the bench has led to the imposition of some probation conditions which are unnecessarily harsh, unjustified, and possibly unconstitutional. Of particular concern is the growing use of "scarlet letter" probation conditions which require signs to be posted on the offender's property warning the public by …

Bright Line Seizures: The Need For Clarity In Determining When Fourth Amendment Activity Begins, Edwin J. Butterfoss

Faculty Scholarship

This Article proposes that the Mendenhall-Royer standard, as presently interpreted, should be discarded because it is unworkable and fails to strike the appropriate balance between the liberty interests of citizens and the interest of the state in combatting crime. The test is unworkable because the outcomes of cases turn on subtle factual distinctions unrelated to an individual's actual freedom to end an encounter with a police officer, making it difficult for police officers to apply the standard in the field and adjust their conduct accordingly. Moreover, the standard provides insufficient protection for an individual's rights by failing to consider the …

Executive Order 12,564: Toward A Drug-Free Federal Workforce, Robert M. Kruger Jan 1987

Executive Order 12,564: Toward A Drug-Free Federal Workforce, Robert M. Kruger

Journal of Law and Health

For all of these reasons, the President issued an Executive Order on September 15, 1986, designed to achieve a drug-free federal workplace. Consistent with the President's views, it focuses on helping, not punishing, drug users. Time does not permit me to go into each of the Order's provisions in great detail. I would, however, like to offer an overview of the major provisions of the Order. In deference to the occasion, I will concentrate on the provisions of the Order which authorize the use of drug testing to achieve that objective. The Executive Order calls upon "agency heads," the chief …


Obstacles To Holding A Parole Official In Virginia Liable For The Negligent Release Or Supervision Of A Parolee, Diane Miller Lowder Jan 1987

Obstacles To Holding A Parole Official In Virginia Liable For The Negligent Release Or Supervision Of A Parolee, Diane Miller Lowder

University of Richmond Law Review

With the continuing problem of overcrowded prisons, parole board officials have been under increasing pressure to release prisoners before the natural termination of their sentences. As a consequence, the public suffers the risk that the parolee, once released, will commit a violent crime. If this should occur, the question then becomes whether the injured individual can, as a result, hold the parole board civilly liable for the negligent release or supervision of the parolee.

Attempting The Impossible: The Emerging Consensus, Ira Robbins Jan 1986

Attempting The Impossible: The Emerging Consensus, Ira Robbins

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

Impossible attempts are situations in which an actor fails to consummate a substantive crime because he is mistaken about attendant circumstances. Professor Robbins divides mistakes regarding circumstances into three categories: mistakes of fact, mistakes of law, and mistakes of mixed fact and law. Courts and commentators disagree primarily over the identification and treatment of mixed fact law cases. Professor Robbins surveys each category of mistake. He then examines the objective, subjective, and hybrid approaches to dealing with the mixed fact/law category. The objective approach requires an objective manifestation of the actor's intent before conviction is allowed. The subjective approach permits …

The Court-Ordered Predisposition Evaluation Under Washington's Juvenile Justice Act: A Violation Of The Privilege Against Self-Incrimination?—Wash. Rev. Code § 13.40, Judith H. Ramseyer

Seattle University Law Review

This Comment analyzes the significance of the principles animating the constitutional privilege against self-incrimination by first looking at the purposes of Washington’s Juvenile Justice Act; second, by examining the status of the privilege against self-incrimination during sentencing; and third, by applying the values protected by the privilege to the use of predisposition psychological evaluations in Washington juvenile courts.
