Some Legislative History And Comments On Ohio's New Criminal Code , Harry J. Lehman, Alan E. Norris Jan 1974

Some Legislative History And Comments On Ohio's New Criminal Code , Harry J. Lehman, Alan E. Norris

Cleveland State Law Review

Having briefly outlined the history of the formal development of the Act, it is the purpose of this Article to discuss in narrative form the legislative process on certain key provisions which were the subject of much debate and disagreement. These areas of disagreement include murder and felony penalties, especially minimum sentences; capital punishment to conform to the U.S. Supreme Court's Furman decision as well as other changes; parole eligibility for those serving life sentences for a capital offense; early release on parole, also known as shock parole; eligibility for probation; definition of reasonable doubt and jury instructions on reasonable …


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 …

Some Themes In The Proposed Federal Rules Of Evidence, Paul F. Rothstein Jan 1974

Some Themes In The Proposed Federal Rules Of Evidence, Paul F. Rothstein

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

Although the Federal Rules of Evidence are under consideration by Congress, it is unlikely that many of their major themes will be reversed. The present article examines some of these themes as they appear in the Supreme Court-approved draft. The aim is merely to make more explicit the effects of the Rules and suggest some questions for study.


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.

Correctional System Needs, Susan S. Cole Oct 1973

Correctional System Needs, Susan S. Cole

IUSTITIA

One of the most difficult and pressing problems now facing local, state and national leaders is the failure of the criminal justice system. There is ample evidence of the system's failure: during the years 1960 to 1969, when the population increased by 13%, crime increased 1487,' and it is still increasing. Yet, correctional institutions do not appear to be places where criminal behavior is changed or where offenders are rehabilitated. They appear to be, instead, places where offenders are exposed to the most advanced criminal techniques and the most extreme anti-social behavior. Recidivism rates are estimated as high as 8070.

Discretion In Felony Sentencing—A Study Of Influencing Factors, Barbara L. Johnston, Nicholas P. Miller, Ronald Schoenberg, Laurence Ross Weatherly Aug 1973

Discretion In Felony Sentencing—A Study Of Influencing Factors, Barbara L. Johnston, Nicholas P. Miller, Ronald Schoenberg, Laurence Ross Weatherly

Washington Law Review

The desirability and constitutionality of discretionary criminal sentencing can be ascertained only if the factors influencing sentencing decisions are known. The authors analyze data generated by a 1971 survey of Washington State superior court trial judges in order to identify the significant factors and to evaluate their relative importance in criminal sentencing. The results indicate that discretionary sentencing is influenced strongly by social biases in no way dependent upon the culpability of the offender, his personal behavior patterns, or circumstances of the crime.

Pretrial Disclosure Of Federal Grand Jury Testimony, William J. Knudsen, Jr. Feb 1973

Pretrial Disclosure Of Federal Grand Jury Testimony, William J. Knudsen, Jr.

Washington Law Review

The scope of this study is limited to what is probably the most criticized aspect of the traditional grand jury system, the restrictions on disclosure of grand jury proceedings, especially the criminal defendant's lack of access to a transcript of the testimony given before the grand jury which indicted him. Examining the history of the grand jury as it relates to the tradition of secrecy, this study discusses the philosophies underlying the practice and analyzes the impact of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, federal statutes, and certain Supreme Court decisions on this tradition. This study concludes that there is …

Indigents' Dissatisfaction With Assigned Counsel, Mary Sue Lang Jan 1973

Indigents' Dissatisfaction With Assigned Counsel, Mary Sue Lang

Cleveland State Law Review

The American concept of democracy embraces the principle that the basic interests of society are endangered when the rights of an individual are diminished. The indigent's dissatisfaction with his assigned counsel is relevant only because Americans presuppose that a criminal prosecution unaccompanied by the panoply of the adversary process is a deprivation of the fundamental rights of the accused. This concept of justice obligates a government which institutes criminal prosecutions to provide representation for those unable to afford their own counsel. It further imposes a duty to assure effective counsel in order to preserve the element of challenge which is …


American Grand Jury: Investigatory And Indictment Powers, Timothy G. Kasparek Jan 1973

American Grand Jury: Investigatory And Indictment Powers, Timothy G. Kasparek

Cleveland State Law Review

As a result of the obvious discrepancies and conflicts among the three reports concerning the Kent State incident, the U.S. Department of Justice was reported to have been considering whether the convening of a federal grand jury was necessary) Additionally, Robert I. White, President of Kent State University at the time of the tragedy, the Kent State faculty and student senates, and the Kent State graduate-student council expressed a need for and re- quested the empaneling of a federal grand jury. To date, none has been convened nor has there been any indication that one will be called in the …


Criminal Law And Procedure--Bringing It Home, Fernand N. Dutile Jan 1973

Criminal Law And Procedure--Bringing It Home, Fernand N. Dutile

Journal Articles

When I first began teaching six years ago at the Catholic University Law School, one of the two sections of Criminal Law and Procedure assigned to me was approximately 33 % larger than the other. I remember feeling a considerable difference in atmosphere in the two sections, due to the numbers involved. In the smaller section, discussion seemed more intimate, more coherent, more shared by all the students. I felt able to know students better and more quickly. It is stunning now to realize that the larger section in that 1966-67 school year numbered 32 students! When I left Catholic …


Prisoners' Redress For Deprivation Of A Constitutional Right: Federal Habeas Corpus And The Civil Rights Act., Daniel J. Sheehan Jr. Dec 1972

Prisoners' Redress For Deprivation Of A Constitutional Right: Federal Habeas Corpus And The Civil Rights Act., Daniel J. Sheehan Jr.

St. Mary's Law Journal

Franchises, founder-member contracts, and referral-sales agreements are marketing practices used to expand retail businesses and typically categorized as investment contracts. These marketing schemes continue to leave investors susceptible to fraud and misrepresentation because security regulations may fail to adapt to continuously varying methods in which promoters acquire capital. The Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Commission of 1934, and the Blue Sky Laws were attempts to regulate marketing schemes by establishing purposefully broad definitions of investment contracts. Securities laws were meant to have a liberal application for the purpose of being flexible and adaptive. In 1946, the landmark case …
