Book Review Of Passion: An Essay On Personality , Richard F. Devlin Frsc Jan 1985

Book Review Of Passion: An Essay On Personality , Richard F. Devlin Frsc

Articles, Book Chapters, & Popular Press

Passion is a cogently structured, compel Jingly argued and seductively enthralling masterpiece which, in years to come, will undoubtedly stand out as an inspirational source for many who seek social transformation. Unger's style, in this essay at least, is lucid and inviting. Substantively, Passion demonstrates not only the depth of his penetrating intellect but also his command of an array of' disciplines. Unger's polymathy is all the more impressive when we remember that ours is an era in which idiosyncratic specialization is the norm.

Criminal Procedure - The Admissibility Of Evidence Obtained Through Hypnosis - State V. Peoples, Sharon L. Hartman

Campbell Law Review

This Note examines the problems bearing on admissibility of hypnotically induced or refreshed testimony in view of the literature discussing the effects of hypnosis on the witness. It focuses on whether the rule on inadmissibility adopted in Peoples should be a per se rule or should be subject to limited exceptions. Finally it considers the effect of the decision on criminal investigations and law enforcement.

Annual Survey Of Virginia Law: Criminal Procedure, Ronald J. Bacigal Jan 1985

Annual Survey Of Virginia Law: Criminal Procedure, Ronald J. Bacigal

University of Richmond Law Review

In Tennessee v. Garner, the United States Supreme Court rejected the common law rule which had permitted the use of deadly force to prevent the escape of an unarmed suspected felon. The Court held that deadly force cannot be used to prevent an escape unless the arresting officer has probable cause to believe that the suspect poses a significant threat of death or serious physical injury to the officer or others. The United States Supreme Court noted that "apparently" Virginia was one of the few jurisdictions still following the common law rule. However, the only Virginia authority cited, Berry v. …

Hunger Strikes And The State's Right To "Force Feed": Recent Australian Experience, Mark Findlay Dec 1984

Hunger Strikes And The State's Right To "Force Feed": Recent Australian Experience, Mark Findlay

Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law

Whether or not it is the nature of the protest itself which makes it unsuitable for resolution in a court-room situation, the case law relating to "hunger strikes" (and State's response) is both sparse and insignificant. Perhaps on the basis of its uniqueness alone, the case of Schneidas v. Corrective Services Commission(New South Wales) and Others should be of particular interest to jurists on both sides of the Irish border.


Entry To Arrest A Suspect In A Third Party's Home: Ninth Circuit Opens The Door—United States V. Underwood, 717 F.2d 482 (1983), Cert. Denied, 104 S. Ct. 1309 (1984), Sarah L. Klevit Nov 1984

Entry To Arrest A Suspect In A Third Party's Home: Ninth Circuit Opens The Door—United States V. Underwood, 717 F.2d 482 (1983), Cert. Denied, 104 S. Ct. 1309 (1984), Sarah L. Klevit

Washington Law Review

This Note examines the Supreme Court's conflicting policies and how the Underwood court resolved them. To set a framework for analyzing the case, it discusses the Supreme Court's protection of privacy rights in the home and the Court's recent limitations on the standing doctrine. The Note reviews the facts and holding of Underwood, then illustrates both the problems with the court's reasoning and those created by its decision to uphold the search. Finally, this Note suggests that the Ninth Circuit's approach in Underwood was wrong and proposes, instead, a two-step test for analyzing similar search and seizure cases. Not only …

Informants' Tips And Probable Cause: The Demise Of Aguilar-Spinelli—Illinois V. Gates, 103 S. Ct. 2317 (1983), Laura J. Buckland Jul 1984

Informants' Tips And Probable Cause: The Demise Of Aguilar-Spinelli—Illinois V. Gates, 103 S. Ct. 2317 (1983), Laura J. Buckland

Washington Law Review

The Supreme Court was expected to announce a decision in Illinois v. Gates modifying the exclusionary rule to include a "good-faith" exception. "[W]ith apologies to all," however, the Court declined to rule on that issue. The Supreme Court instead abandoned the Aguilar-Spinelli test for assessing probable cause based on information derived from informants. The Court replaced the Aguilar-Spinelli test with a "totality of the circumstances" approach, and upheld the search warrant in Gates. Gates is the first Supreme Court decision to specifically address the use of anonymous informants' tips as the probable cause basis for securing a search warrant. Gates …

Public Opinion Of Forensic Psychiatry Following The Hinckley Verdict, Dan Slater, Valerie P. Hans May 1984

Public Opinion Of Forensic Psychiatry Following The Hinckley Verdict, Dan Slater, Valerie P. Hans

Cornell Law Faculty Publications

The authors obtained opinions of forensic psychiatry in a community survey following the not guilty by reason of insanity verdict in the Hinckley trial. A majority of respondents expressed little or no confidence in the specific psychiatric testimony in the Hinckley trial and only modest faith in the general ability of psychiatrists to determine legal insanity. Respondents' general and specific attitudes were strongly related. Younger people and women were more positive in their views of psychiatry in the courtroom.


The Principle Of Analogy In Sino-Soviet Criminal Laws, Dana Giovannetti May 1984

The Principle Of Analogy In Sino-Soviet Criminal Laws, Dana Giovannetti

Dalhousie Law Journal

"Analogy" is a principle of substantive criminal law which permits the conviction of an accused despite the absence of any defined criminal behavior.' If the actions of the accused are perceived to be inimical to the socio-political order then he may be found guilty of a defined crime which prohibits analogous behavior. Analogy may also be employed in a more restrained fashion as a principle of sentencing law. If the accused has committed a defined crime which is now perceived to be more deleterious his punishment may exceed the maximum legislatively mandated sentence. Analogy is, therefore, one method of defining …


"Seizures" Typology: Classifying Detentions Of The Person To Resolve Warrant, Grounds, And Search Issues, Wayne R. Lafave Apr 1984

"Seizures" Typology: Classifying Detentions Of The Person To Resolve Warrant, Grounds, And Search Issues, Wayne R. Lafave

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

This seizures typology constitutes a most important part of extant fourth amendment doctrine. The precision with which and perspective from which such classifications are drawn is obviously a matter of considerable interest to the police, who must in the first instance resolve these warrant, grounds, and search issues. It is also an appropriate subject of broader concern, as the shape of these categories has a critical bearing upon the effectiveness of our law enforcement processes and the extent of our protected liberty and privacy. The following comments are directed to this seizures typology.
