Michigan Law Review

Constitutional Law- Search And Seizure- Search Incidental To An Administrative Arrest, James J. White

Michigan Law Review

As a preliminary to deportation proceedings, defendant, Rudolf I. Abel, was arrested in his hotel room by Immigration and Naturalization Service agents who acted pursuant to a valid administrative arrest warrant.

Michigan Law Review

Relator was convicted of burglary in 1953 and of voluntary manslaughter in 1954.

On petition for writ of habeas corpus, which was denied by the lower court, relator admitted the fact of his prior conviction. He asserted, however, that although the habitual criminal statute in terms contains no provision granting alleged second offenders notice …
