Duress -Threats Of Prosecution - Illegality
Duress -Threats Of Prosecution - Illegality
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff filed a bill for cancellation, on the ground of duress or illegality, of a mortgage given by her to the defendant. The mortgage was induced by a promise of the defendant's attorney to use his influence to procure the release from jail of the mortgagor's husband and the dismissal of criminal proceedings originally brought against him by the defendant. Held, there was no duress, and no fraud or deceit was practiced upon the court or court officials, so relief must be denied. Wilhelm v. King Auto Finance Co., (Mich. 1932) 244 N. W. 130.

Criminal Law And Procedure - Preliminary Examination
Criminal Law And Procedure - Preliminary Examination
Michigan Law Review
A statute provided: "No information shall be filed against any person for any offense until such person shall have had a preliminary examination therefor as provided by law before a magistrate, unless such person shall waive such right. . . . " The defendant was complained against before a magistrate on a charge of grand. larceny. The magistrate refused to hold the accused on such charge but held him to answer on a charge of receiving stolen property. The prosecutor filed an information charging grand larceny. The defendant moved to quash the information on the ground that he had had …
Equity-Injunction Against Criminal Proceedings
Equity-Injunction Against Criminal Proceedings
Michigan Law Review
The possessor of certain slot machines filed a bill in equity to enjoin police interference with their operation. Although the machines, as operated, sold mints for each coin played and occasionally vended tokens which allegedly had no exchange value, they could be changed, by the removal of a pin, into an actual gambling device. The court held in Chambers v. Bachtel, that the bill should be dismissed.
Comment Upon Failure Of Accused To Testify, Robert P. Reeder
Comment Upon Failure Of Accused To Testify, Robert P. Reeder
Michigan Law Review
Last year the American Law Institute and the American Bar Association adopted resolutions declaring that when the defendant in a criminal trial does not testify the prosecution should be permitted to comment upon that fact. They urged the overthrow of a rule of law which have prevailed in the federal courts ever since accused persons were first permitted to give testimony, over fifty years ago, and which has governed the courts of forty-two out of the forty-eight states. The discussions which preceded the adoption of the resolutions have been published. In them the advocates of the change do not show …
Constitutional Law-Criminal Procedure-Comment By Judge On Evidence
Constitutional Law-Criminal Procedure-Comment By Judge On Evidence
Michigan Law Review
In the recent case of People v. Kelly, the Illinois supreme court decided (two justices dissenting) that the common law right of a judge, in charging the jury, to comment on the evidence and advise as to the facts was not an essential attribute of trial by jury as it, existed at common law, and held that a statute limiting the charge strictly to matters of law was not an infringement of the right of trial by jury guaranteed by successive Illinois constitutions. The court also decided, in upholding the legislative enactment, that this restriction of the functions of …

President Hoover's Recommendations - Waiver Of Right To Accusation By Grand Jury Indictment
President Hoover's Recommendations - Waiver Of Right To Accusation By Grand Jury Indictment
Michigan Law Review
In Illinois also the time between arrest and indictment is considerable. According to the figures of the Illinois Crime Survey the median time after preliminary hearing before indictment of persons who pleaded guilty ranged from thirteen days in Chicago to thirty-seven days in other parts of the state. An average of another two days is added by the time between arrest and preliminary hearing. In Missouri, too, the time interval is long. It seems reasonable to assume, therefore, that in the federal courts the time between arrest and indictment is at least as long, especially in districts where grand juries …
Criminal Law - Federal Removal Proceedings - Conclusiveness Of The Indictment
Criminal Law - Federal Removal Proceedings - Conclusiveness Of The Indictment
Michigan Law Review
A vexatious question, and one which frequently arises in proceedings for removal from one federal district to another for trial, is to what extent the courts will go in weighing the force of the evidence against the accused. The government, when asking removal, presents to the court or commissioner a copy of the indictment found in the district to which removal is asked, and frequently rests on this, after giving evidence that the defendant is the party named in the indictment. The defendant, on the other hand, usually presents a mass of evidence, relevant and irrelevant, in an endeavor to …

Crimes - Procedure - Limitation Of Actions - Extension Of Statutory Period
Crimes - Procedure - Limitation Of Actions - Extension Of Statutory Period
Michigan Law Review
The defendant was indicted in September, 1930, for having robbed a bank in August, 1927. At the time of his act, the statute of limitation of actions required that prosecutions for certain offenses be commenced within five years after the act, and included in this group the crime termed "robbery." Prosecutions for other offenses were barred after two years. In May, 1929, a new statute provided that prosecutions for felonies be commenced within five years after commission of the act by the accused. The defendant contended that robbing a bank was not within the scope of the term "robbery" as …

Crimes-Withdrawal Of A Plea Of Guilty
Crimes-Withdrawal Of A Plea Of Guilty
Michigan Law Review
Defendant was charged with the violation of the prohibition law, to which he pleaded guilty. About two months after this plea was in, he filed a motion to withdraw it, and substituted one of not guilty. In support of this motion he set up that he had not been advised of his constitutional rights to have counsel; that the arresting officers told him the case would be heard in a federal court, and his punishment would be light; and that he was unaware of the liquor being in his car (which claim was subsequently disproved by the evidence). The motion …
Crimes - Right To Bail Of Prisoner Held For Extradition
Crimes - Right To Bail Of Prisoner Held For Extradition
Michigan Law Review
The prisoner, who was wanted on an indictment in Iowa, had been apprehended in Minnesota under a rendition warrant issued by the governor of that state upon the requisition of the governor of Iowa. Habeas corpus proceedings were brought in the lower court to test the validity of the warrant, but the prisoner was remanded to the custody of the sheriff. He appealed this decision, and made application to fix bail pending the appeal. Held, it is doubtful if the court has the power to admit to bail after the governor's warrant has been issued, and even if the …
State Juvenile Court Procedure For Federal Juvenile Offenders, Howard E. Wahrenbrock
State Juvenile Court Procedure For Federal Juvenile Offenders, Howard E. Wahrenbrock
Michigan Law Review
The Report on the Child Offender in the Federal System of Justice recommends the enactment of federal legislation which will provide means of utilizing the machinery of existing state juvenile courts where federal laws have been violated by children. The details of such legislation are not suggested in the Report. The legal questions to be encountered in the framing of such legislation call for careful consideration if full advantage is to be taken of the knowledge which the study made for the Commission furnishes. Some of the questions of more general interest will be taken as the subject of this …
Report On Prosecution, Rollin M. Perkins
Report On Prosecution, Rollin M. Perkins
Michigan Law Review
The logical starting point was the discovery and restatement of existing knowledge and information on these subjects, and because of the tremendous mass of material which has appeared in the form of surveys and reports within the last decade and a half, it was deemed wise to enlist the services of an expert in such matters. The analysis which he has produced, let it be added, amply justifies the Commission in his selection.
Report On Criminal Procedure, Rollin M. Perkins
Report On Criminal Procedure, Rollin M. Perkins
Michigan Law Review
During the period of trial by battle such a proceeding served, in addition to its nominal purpose, something of the function which is now served by a World's Series ball game. From that time to this, the trial has been the spectacular aspect of the enforcement of justice in general and of criminal justice in particular. The result has been relative overemphasis upon criminal procedure in the strictly technical sense, and a corresponding neglect of the broader problems of administration. If, for instance, a conviction under a statute making it grand larceny to steal "a cow or animal of the …
Report On The Enforcement Of The Deportation Laws Of The United States, E. Blythe Stason
Report On The Enforcement Of The Deportation Laws Of The United States, E. Blythe Stason
Michigan Law Review
This report is concurred in by nine of the eleven members of the Commission. Two members, Henry W. Anderson and Kenneth Mackintosh, file dissenting statements. The Report is accompanied by a thoroughly interesting research study of the administration of the deportation laws, prepared by Reuben Oppenheimer. Since this study constitutes the basis of the report, and since the majority of the Commission concur in the conclusions and recommendations set forth in it, the following remarks will deal primarily with the study itself.
Injunctions To Restrain Threatened Or Impending Criminal Prosecutions, Frederick G. Hamley
Injunctions To Restrain Threatened Or Impending Criminal Prosecutions, Frederick G. Hamley
Washington Law Review
The general rule is always stated to be that an injunction will not be granted to stay criminal or quasi-crininal proceedings. The original basis of the rule, it is quite generally agreed, was founded upon the theory that to sustain a bill in equity to restrain or relieve against proceedings for the punishment of offenses would constitute an invasion of the law courts. This theory was the natural outgrowth of the lack of relation between equity and law courts as they formerly existed in England. With the gradual ebb in the jealousies and antagonisms between courts of law and of …
