Note: Constitutional Chellanges To New York's Youthful Offender Statute, John M. Tyd Jan 1977

Note: Constitutional Chellanges To New York's Youthful Offender Statute, John M. Tyd

Fordham Urban Law Journal

New York's Youthful Offender Statute has been described as "humane and progressive legislation intended for the benefit of a youth who makes his first mistake and that he should not be branded as a criminal therefor..." In keeping with this philosophy, the statute provides a system whereby a youth (i.e., an individual between the ages of sixteen and eighteen) can avoid the serious consequences which result from being convicted of a crime. Upon determination that youthful offender status should be granted, the conviction is vacated and replaced with a youthful offender finding. Prior to 1975, those youths indicted for crimes …


Book Review: Denial Of Justice: Criminal Process In The United States, Thomas G. Roth Jan 1977

Book Review: Denial Of Justice: Criminal Process In The United States, Thomas G. Roth

Fordham Urban Law Journal

Thomas G. Roth reviews Denial of Justice: Criminal Process in the United States by Lloyd L. Weinreb. In his book, Lloyd L. Weinreb argues persuasively that American criminal process not only falls short of being the best there is, but it denies us a system which we can properly call "just." Weinreb's work is divided into two sections. The first part, which comprises the bulk of the book, explains how criminal process works and, more significantly, how it has failed to achieve effectively the goals for which it was developed. In the second part, he describes in general theory an …

Quality Advocacy And The Code Of Professional Responsibility, Conflicts Of Interests--A Trial Judge's Notes, The Honorable Orrin G. Judd Jan 1976

Quality Advocacy And The Code Of Professional Responsibility, Conflicts Of Interests--A Trial Judge's Notes, The Honorable Orrin G. Judd

Fordham Law Review

The quality of representation is undermined when a client's interests conflict with those of a third party, another client, a former client, or the attorney himself. In addition, a criminal defendant's interests in acquittal or a civil litigant's desire to vindicate his claim may run afoul of a court's search for truth. The Code of Professoinal Responsibility addresses the conflicts of interest problem directly and indirectly in a number of disciplinary rules and ethical considerations. Judge Judd enumerates these provisions in his reflections on some of the conflicts he has witnessed from the bench, and he outlines the judiciary's role …

A Critique Of Lawyers' Ethics In An Adversary System, William R. Meagher Jan 1976

A Critique Of Lawyers' Ethics In An Adversary System, William R. Meagher

Fordham Urban Law Journal

Monroe Freedman’s book is largely a reiteration of his unorthodox views, previously aired in various law reviews and other professional publications, regarding ethical standards that should govern the conduct of the trial advocate. Since his positions contradict the behavioral principles codified in two publications of the American Bar Association—the Code of Professional Responsibility and the Standards Relating to the Defense Function—the author adopts the apologetic strategy of impugning both the credibility and the viability of these precepts in order to justify his contrary stance and to clear the way for its general acceptance.


Speedy Trials: Recent Developments Concerning A Vital Right, Stephen F. Chepiga Jan 1976

Speedy Trials: Recent Developments Concerning A Vital Right, Stephen F. Chepiga

Fordham Urban Law Journal

Historically, Anglo-American law has jealously guarded the right of an accused to have a speedy trial in a criminal prosecution. It is extended to defendants in federal cases by the sixth amendment to the Constitution. Through incorporation into the fourteenth amendment, the protection is likewise available to defendants in state prosecutions. Notwithstanding constitutional provisions and Supreme Court decisions, the concept of a speedy trial has always been ambiguous. Until recent times it has been considered a matter that could only be defined in the context of the special circumstances of individual cases. The right was said to be “consistent with …

Judicial Selection In New York: A Need For Change, James Edward Lozier Jan 1975

Judicial Selection In New York: A Need For Change, James Edward Lozier

Fordham Urban Law Journal

On February 27, 1974 Chief Judge Charles D. Breitel of the New York State Court of Appeals addressed the New York Legislature regarding the "State of the Judiciary and Judicial System" and presented dramatic proposals for the reform of the New York state court system. In resurrecting the problem of court reform, the Chief Judge focused in part on one particularly controversial area-the selection of the judiciary. New Yorkers, as well as many other Americans, have become increasingly cognizant of the problem of inefficient administration of the judicial system by some of our nation's state and federal judges. A full …

Fordham Urban Law Journal

Plaintiffs, detainees at the Manhattan House of Detention for Men (MHD), more commonly known as the "Tombs," brought suit for declaratory and injunctive relief against the Commissioner of Corrections of the City of New York, the warden, the mayor, and various state officials. Plaintiffs alleged that the conditions of their detention constituted a denial of their rights under the first, fifth, sixth, eighth, and fourteenth amendments. The United States District Court for the Southern District of New York found unconstitutional conditions did exist and ordered the city to submit a plan within thirty days to remedy the constitutional infirmities.
