Reconsideration Of Scope Of Review For Habeas Corpus From Military Courts, M. Lawrence Shields Iii

Duquesne Law Review

Until several years ago, most people, lawyers and laymen alike, had little concern for the nature of the military justice system and its relation to the state and federal systems of justice. Unless one were a career soldier, had served in the armed services, or lived near a military base, military law never captured his attention or touched his personal life. However, with the United States' increased involvement in the Vietnam conflict and resulting governmental prosecutions of individuals for the commission of "battle-related crimes," the military justice system has increasingly come to the attention of the American public. The widespread, …

The Penal Ombudsman: A Step Toward Penal Reform, Brian Taugher

McGeorge Law Review

Recent disturbances in prisons across the nation have focused attention on our prison population. Many argue that prison riots are initiated by "malcontents," "troublemakers," and "revolutionaries" inside and outside the prison. Others have attributed the disturbances to prisoner frustration with the complaint procedures in the prisons. Assembly Bill 1181, introduced in the 1971 California Legislature, would have created a prison ombudsman for the state prison system. The bill was vetoed by the Governor. This comment discusses the types of complaints made by prisoners, the present remedies for handling these complaints, and the purpose and function of an ombudsman. The penal …

Persuasion In The Courtroom, William C. Costopoulos

Duquesne Law Review

Persuasion is defined as "an act of influencing the minds of others by arguments or reasons, by appeals to both feeling and intellect; it is the art of leading another man's will to a particular choice, or course of conduct." No one doubts this is what trial lawyers do every day in the courtroom-and that is what this article is about.

Torts - Defamation - Constitutional Standard, John L. Livingston Jr.

Duquesne Law Review

The United States Supreme Court has held that in a libel action by a private individual against a radio station for a defamatory falsehood in a newscast relating to his involvement in an event of public concern, the individual can recover only upon clear and convincing proof that the defamatory falsehood was published with knowledge that it was false or with reckless disregard of whether it was false.

The Right To Treatment - Some Comments On Implementation, Morton Birnbaum

Duquesne Law Review

In May, 1960, an editorial in the American Bar Association Journal condemned the understaffing and overcrowding that existed in our public mental hospitals as "a wrong which demands correction." Emphasizing that a legal precedent could work wonders, it strongly advocated the recognition and implementation of the constitutional right of an involuntary civilly committed patient in a public mental hospital to adequate care and treatment. For convenience, this right was called the right to treatment. Although our society undoubtedly recognized a moral right to treatment, our law had not recognized this legal right.

The Right To Treatment: Judicial Realism - Judicial Initiative [Note], Charles W. Kenrick

Duquesne Law Review

The moral right of mental patients to adequate care and treatment has long been recognized in our society. Legal recognition of the same right is still in the nascent stage of development. Subsequent comments in this section suggest constitutional bases and analogies for the right. For purposes of this comment it is assumed that an adequate legal foundation has been established by case law and responsible commentary for recognizing a legally enforceable right to care and treatment.

Broadcasting, The Reluctant Dragon: Will The First Amendment Right Of Access End The Suppressing Of Controversial Ideas?, Donald M. Malone

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

The scope of this article will be limited to one aspect of electronic media programming-the extent to which the public is and should be exposed to an accurate cross section of public opinion and a broad range of controversial ideas. Many people, including the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), have acknowledged that a desirable goal for the broadcast media, particularly television, is to provide a marketplace for controversial ideas. Part II of this article will identify the principal reasons why that goal has not been achieved. Part III will examine the fairness doctrine, the antecedents of which have been traced back …
