Acquittal Of Reckless Driving Does Not Bar Prosecution For Vehicular Homicide, Anon Jan 1966

Acquittal Of Reckless Driving Does Not Bar Prosecution For Vehicular Homicide, Anon

Washington Law Review

After being involved in a fatal automobile collision, defendant was charged by information, in a court of limited jurisdiction, with the misdemeanor of reckless driving. Trial by a three judge panel resulted in acquittal. Subsequently, an indictment was returned by county grand jury charging defendant with vehicular homicide, a felony requiring proof of driving in a "reckless or culpably negligent manner, whereby a human being is killed." Defendant contended that the prosecution for vehicular homicide would subject him to double jeopardy. The Appellate Division of the New York Supreme Court granted an order prohibiting the trial, agreeing that it would …

Right To Counsel In Criminal Cases, Edward T. Haggins Jan 1966

Right To Counsel In Criminal Cases, Edward T. Haggins

Cleveland State Law Review

"The right to be heard would be, in many cases, of little avail if it did not comprehend the right to be heard by counsel. Even the intelligent and educated layman has small and sometimes no skill in the science of law... He requires the guiding hand of counsel at every step of the proceedings against him." These words, written in 1932 by Mr. Justice Sutherland for the majority in the famous case of Powell v. Alabama underline the fundamental right of a defendant in American criminal proceeding to have the assistance of counsel.

A Dissent From The Miranda Dissents: Some Comments On The 'New' Fifth Amendment And The Old 'Voluntariness' Test, Yale Kamisar Jan 1966

A Dissent From The Miranda Dissents: Some Comments On The 'New' Fifth Amendment And The Old 'Voluntariness' Test, Yale Kamisar

Articles

F the several conferences and workshops (and many lunch conversations) on police interrogation and confessions in which I have participated this past summer3 are any indication, Miranda v. Arizona' has evoked much anger and spread much sorrow among judges, lawyers and professors. In the months and years ahead, such reaction is likely to be translated into microscopic analyses and relentless, probing criticism of the majority opinion. During this period of agonizing appraisal and reappraisal, I think it important that various assumptions and assertions in the dissenting opinions do not escape attention.


Has The Court Left The Attorney General Behind? The Bazelon-Katzenbach Letters On Poverty, Equality, And The Administration Of Criminal Justice, Yale Kamisar Jan 1966

Has The Court Left The Attorney General Behind? The Bazelon-Katzenbach Letters On Poverty, Equality, And The Administration Of Criminal Justice, Yale Kamisar

Articles

Distribution of the first preliminary draft of the proposed American Law Institute Model Code of Pre-Arraignment Procedure last June touched off a brisk exchange of letters between Chief Judge David Bazelon of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, who maintained that the proposed code left a good deal to be desired, and Attorney General Nicholas deB. Katzenbach, who, although he did not explicitly treat any provision of the preliminary draft, sharply challenged the conception of equality underlying Bazelon's criticism of it. By now, both the code, and the Bazelon-Katzenbach correspondence which it evoked, are …

Involuntary Confessions And Article 35, Criminal Procedure Code, Stanley Z. Fisher Jan 1966

Involuntary Confessions And Article 35, Criminal Procedure Code, Stanley Z. Fisher

Faculty Scholarship

Improper methods of police interrogation are known to every country in the world. And everywhere, it is agreed that an accused's confession of guilt which has been procured through physical violence, psychological intimidation, or improper inducements or promises cannot be considered in evidence against him at trial. The primary reason why involuntary confessions are excluded from evidence is that they are unreliable indices of truth; men have been known to admit crimes of which they are innocent, simply to escape the pain of torture or to obtain an irresistible benefit.


Some Aspects Of Ethiopian Arrest Law: The Eclectic Approach To Codification, Stanley Z. Fisher Jan 1966

Some Aspects Of Ethiopian Arrest Law: The Eclectic Approach To Codification, Stanley Z. Fisher

Faculty Scholarship

The Criminal Procedure Code of 1961 is one of Ethiopia's most recent codes, and one of the least "developed" in terms of published commentary and reported cases. In contrast to the "introduced" and "explained" Penal and Civil Codes, the Criminal Procedure Code has apparently been disowned by its drafters, none of whom have written a word of commentary on it. Its origins remain obscure, and at first glance it is difficult to see which, if any, "system" was its inspiration. In fact, it seems, the Code has roots in no single system, nor even in any single "family" of systems. …

Legal History In The High Court--Habeas Corpus, Dallin H. Oaks Jan 1966

Legal History In The High Court--Habeas Corpus, Dallin H. Oaks

Michigan Law Review

Ever since Chief Justice Marshall declared that courts could resort to the common law to determine what Congress meant by the term "habeas corpus" in a federal statute, the history of this venerable remedy has played an important role in the Supreme Court. Over the years, however, courts have moved away from using the writ of habeas corpus for its historic functions of eliciting the cause of commitment and compelling adherence to prescribed procedures in advance of trial until today it has become primarily a means by which one court of general jurisdiction exercises post-conviction review over the judgment of …


Criminal Law And Procedure, Henry Paul Monaghan Jan 1966

Criminal Law And Procedure, Henry Paul Monaghan

Faculty Scholarship

§12.1 Introduction. The recent decisions of the United States Supreme Court in the area of criminal procedure have begun to have a considerable impact upon litigation in the Massachusetts courts; indeed, for at least the second successive year the major emphasis of the Supreme Judicial Court's criminal law opinions centered upon considerations of "criminal due process." On the whole, the Court demonstrated an admirable concern for protecting the requirements of a fair trial. However, in at least two significant areas its decisions are open to considerable question: (1) in a series of opinions the Court confined the admittedly unclear …

Appointed Counsel In Criminal Prosecutions: A Study Of Indigent Defense, Ronald L. Carlson

Attorney Carlson surveyed Iowa for the American Bar Association's study of the defense of indigent accused persons, and in this Article the results of that study are disclosed.

Criminal Law—Constitutional Law—Search And Seizure—Admissibility Of Evidence Incident To Arrest, Anon Jun 1965

Criminal Law—Constitutional Law—Search And Seizure—Admissibility Of Evidence Incident To Arrest, Anon

Washington Law Review

Defendant was riding as a guest in a car when Seattle police stopped the car and arrested the driver for twice turning without signaling and for failure to produce a valid driver's license. Defendant and the other passengers in the automobile were also arrested and taken to jail. The car was impounded. A search of the car the next day, accomplished without a search warrant, disclosed two revolvers hidden under the dash. At defendant's subsequent trial on robbery charges, the revolvers were admitted in evidence despite defendant's motion to suppress and objection. The trial court ruled that, although defendant's arrest …
