The Forty-Fourth Session Of The Un Sub-Commission On Prevention Of Discrimination And Protection Of Minorities And The Special Session Of The Commission On Human Rights On The Situation In The Former Yugoslavia, Alya Z. Kayal, Penny L. Parker, David Weissbrodt

The 1992 meeting of the UN Sub-Commission on Prevention of Discrimination and Protection of Minorities is chronicled, along with the results of the special session held by the UN Human Rights Commission on Yugoslavia. The work of the Sub-Commission included surveying human rights compliance in various member countries, mandating compliance for Bosnia-Herzegovina, East Timor, Bougainville and Haiti, and discussing issues such as homosexual discrimination as human rights violations. The Commission took evidence on abuses in Yugoslavia and resolved to take action to force compliance.


The Uncertain Future Of Sentencing Guidelines, Richard Frase Jan 1993

The Uncertain Future Of Sentencing Guidelines, Richard Frase

Articles

As of the fall of 1993, at least 15 states and the federal government had adopted or were in the process of adopting sentencing guidelines developed by an independent sentencing commission. 1 Minnesota pioneered this approach to sentencing reform in 1978. 2 Its guidelines have now been in effect for more than a decade, and they have been more extensively studied and evaluated than any other system. 3 In addition, many observers believe that the Minne sota Sentencing Guidelines remain one of the better-designed and successful systems of this type. 4 Ironically, the more-recently-enacted Federal Sentencing Guidelines may be the …


The Role Of The Legislature, The Sentencing Commission, And Other Officials Under The Minnesota Sentencing Guidelines, Richard Frase Jan 1993

The Role Of The Legislature, The Sentencing Commission, And Other Officials Under The Minnesota Sentencing Guidelines, Richard Frase

Articles

Minnesota's experience with sentencing guidelines remains critically important to legislators and sentencing reformers in other jurisdictions. Minnesota adopted the first commission-based presumptive sentencing system in 1980, and its Guidelines 1 have been the focus of exhaustive study. 2 The Minnesota Sentencing Guidelines Commission has routinely collected extensive data on all felony sentences, as well as more detailed data on selected sentencing samples. 3 This rich source of data and commentary, coupled with a considerable appellate caselaw interpreting the Guidelines and over a decade of legislative and Commission-initiated amendments, provides invaluable lessons concerning the processes by which commission-based guidelines are drafted, …


Sentencing Commissions And Their Guidelines, Michael Tonry Jan 1993

Sentencing Commissions And Their Guidelines, Michael Tonry

Articles

Sentencing commissions, administrative agencies charged to develop and promulgate standards for sentencing, were first proposed early in the 1970s and first established in 1978. Of four recent major sentencing reform approaches-the others being parole guidelines, voluntary sentencing guidelines, and statutory determinate sentences-only sentencing commission systems continue to be created. Despite controversies associated with the highly unpopular federal guidelines, commissions and their guidelines have achieved their primary goals. Some commissions have achieved specialized technical competence, have adopted comprehensive policy approaches, and have to a degree insulated policy from short-term political pressures. Guidelines have reduced disparities and gender and sex differences in …

Traveling The Road Of Probate Reform: Finding The Way To Your Will (A Response To Professor Ascher), Mary Louise Fellows

Articles

In the United States during this century, probate law and practice have undergone significant changes. Some of the changes are attributable to exogenous factors, such as the development of state and federal income and transfer tax systems, the development of a variety of types of insurance and other contractual arrangements, and the transformation of the American family profile. Other changes are attributable to endogenous factors, such as the growing frustration with traditional will formalities.


Criminalizing The American Juvenile Court, Barry C. Feld Jan 1993

Criminalizing The American Juvenile Court, Barry C. Feld

Articles

Progressive reformers envisioned a therapeutic juvenile court that made individualized treatment decisions in the child's "best interests." The Supreme Court's Gault decision provided the impetus for transforming the juvenile court from an informal welfare agency into a scaled-down criminal court. Since Gault, the juvenile court procedures increasingly resemble those of adult courts, although in some respects, such as assistance of counsel, juveniles receive less adequate protections. Judicial and legislative changes have altered the juvenile court's jurisdiction over noncriminal status offenders and serious young offenders-as the former are diverted from the system, the latter are transferred to adult criminal courts. Juvenile …
