The Disposition Of Felony Arrests, Hans Zeisel Jan 1981

The Disposition Of Felony Arrests, Hans Zeisel

Articles

While we know a great deal about the disposition of felony arrests that reach the trial stage, we know little about the details of the dispositions reached without trial.

Basing his analysis on a study done in the early 1970s, the author describes and presents data on the various stages in the process from arrest to final disposition through plea bargaining, trial, or dismissal of the case. For the first time, this usually opaque disposition pattern prior to trial …

In this article, Professor Posner argues that a sufficiently large fine is an equally effective deterrent that is cheaper to administer and therefore socially preferable.

Torture And Plea Bargaining, John H. Langbein Oct 1978

Torture And Plea Bargaining, John H. Langbein

Crosskey Lectures

In this essay I shall address the modem American system of plea bargaining from a perspective that must appear bizarre, although I hope to persuade you that it is illuminating. I am going to contrast plea bargaining with the medieval European law of torture. My thesis is that there are remarkable parallels in origin, in function, and even in specific points of doctrine, between the law of torture and the law of plea bargaining. I shall suggest that these parallels expose some important truths about how criminal justice systems respond when their trial procedures fall into deep disorder.
