Joint Trials Of Defendants In Criminal Cases: An Analysis Of Efficiencies And Prejudices, Robert O. Dawson Jun 1979

Joint Trials Of Defendants In Criminal Cases: An Analysis Of Efficiencies And Prejudices, Robert O. Dawson

Michigan Law Review

Legislatures and courts, in weighing the relative advantages of joint and separate trials, have unreasonably struck a balance in favor of joint trials. The strongest justification traditionally offered for joint trials is efficiency. This Article shows that courts have greatly exaggerated the supposed efficiencies of joint trials while grossly underestimating the impediments joint trials pose to fair and accurate determinations of individual guilt or innocence. The propriety of joint trials is more than a question of efficiencies. Joint trials usually, although not always, help the prosecutor to get convictions, and thereby modify the balance of advantage in criminal trials. Disputes …

The Future Of Confrontation, Peter K. Westen May 1979

The Future Of Confrontation, Peter K. Westen

Michigan Law Review

The Supreme Court seems to be setting the stage for a long-awaited examination of the confrontation clause. It has been ten years since the Court endeavored in Dutton v. Evans to reconcile the evidentiary rules of hearsay with the constitutional commands of confrontation. Dutton came at the tail end of a string of confrontation cases that the Court had resolved without apparent difficulty. Not surprisingly, the Court approached Dutton in the evident belief that it could resolve the constitutional problems of hearsay once and for all. Instead, after oral argument in 1969 and a rehearing in 1970, the Court found …

Scientific Statistical And Methodology And The Doctrine Of "Reasonable Doubt" In Criminal Law; (With Specific Reference To The Breath Analysis For Blood Alcohol) Empirical Fact Or Legal Ficton?, A. Burton Bass, H. Davidson Gesser, K. Stephan Mount May 1979

Scientific Statistical And Methodology And The Doctrine Of "Reasonable Doubt" In Criminal Law; (With Specific Reference To The Breath Analysis For Blood Alcohol) Empirical Fact Or Legal Ficton?, A. Burton Bass, H. Davidson Gesser, K. Stephan Mount

Dalhousie Law Journal

Lawyers pride themselves on being men of reason. After all, they postulate, it is the "reasonable man" who is enshrined at the apex of the Anglo-American legal system in the adjudication of civil disputes; it is the legally trained mind that proves so finely honed a tool in the area of problem solving in private practice; the rational decisional process is the hallmark of the judicial mind. Where the life or liberty of an individual is in contention this expert "sense" of reason is brought one step further - the criminal law, with few exceptions, will not countenance a mere …

Constitutional Law-DUE PROCESS NOT VIOLATED BY STATE'S DESTRUCTION AND NONDISCLOSURE OF TAPE RECORDING IN CRIMINAL LAW


Substantive And Procedural Aspects Of The Right To Effective Assistance Of Counsel, Irene M. Keeley Apr 1979

Substantive And Procedural Aspects Of The Right To Effective Assistance Of Counsel, Irene M. Keeley

West Virginia Law Review

In an earlier era trial courts perceived their responsibility regarding the quality of legal assistance to be limited to the appointment of reputable counsel. Unless the circumstances were exceptional, judges confronted with a lack of adequate representation for a defendant "papered over" the problem either because they feared a flood of frivolous claims or because they were reluctant to upset the finality of criminal convictions. Even today, when a growing number of courts have formulated a more stringent sixth amendment standard for judging counsel effectiveness, there remains a judicial reluctance to recognize the fundamental nature of the right to effective …

Burdening The Fifth Amendment: Toward A Presumptive Barrier Theory, Mark Berger Apr 1979

Burdening The Fifth Amendment: Toward A Presumptive Barrier Theory, Mark Berger

Faculty Works

Judging how heavily the state may burden the decision to exercise or forego the fifth amendment privilege against self-incrimination is a concededly problematic undertaking. Nevertheless, the formulation of a standard is essential to ensure principled decision making. Unfortunately, however, the Supreme Court has thus far avoided the task. The decisions from the Warren era suggest in very broad language that any burden on the exercise of the right to remain silent is forbidden, while more recent rulings have barred only those penalties automatically imposed for assertions of the privilege. Neither extreme, however, represents a satisfactory resolution of the conflicting interests …
