Washington's General Rule 37 And Montana's Call For Jury Selection Reform, Ellen Boland Monroe
Washington's General Rule 37 And Montana's Call For Jury Selection Reform, Ellen Boland Monroe
Montana Law Review
In April 2018, the Washington Supreme Court became the first in the nation to adopt a court rule to combat implicit bias in the jury selection process. 2 General Rule 37 (“GR 37”) eliminates the need to raise an inference of purposeful discrimination, lists presumptively invalid reasons for exercising a peremptory strike that are historically associated with racial stereotyping, and uses an objective standard to determine if race or ethnicity could be viewed as a factor in the strike. 3 These changes address growing concerns that the current framework for evaluating biased peremptory strikes has failed to combat discrimination while …
Treasure State: Gambling Law, Lobbying, And The Case For The Expansion Of Legal Gambling In Montana, Trevor Funseth
Treasure State: Gambling Law, Lobbying, And The Case For The Expansion Of Legal Gambling In Montana, Trevor Funseth
Montana Law Review
Drive down a main road in one of Montana’s cities and you will count more casinos than gas stations. What’s more, even the gas station has a casino inside. Pass through a small town and you will likely find at least one Lucky Lil’s or Magic Diamond Casino. Montana is currently home to just under 1,400 state-licensed gambling operators and ranks fifth in the nation in casinos per capita with 1.7 casinos per thousand residents. One study used 21 different metrics including casinos per capita, lottery sales per capita, casino revenues, and gambling-related arrests per capita. Based on these metrics, …

In the fall of 2022, the Montana Supreme Court was thrust into the national spotlight in the wake of the United States Supreme Court’s June decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization. Political commentators around the country closely watched the election for one of two seats on the highest court in the Treasure State, speculating as to whether the balance would tip in favor of justices likely to follow the direction of the United States Supreme Court and overturn Montana’s constitutional protection of abortion. The judicial election raised questions of partisan influence among the members of Montana’s highest …

Apparent From The Context: The Contemporaneous Objection Rule And Montana Rule Of Evidence 103(A)(1), Lauren R. Fox
Montana Law Review
It’s a rare millennial who is not familiar with “Legally Blonde,” a movie about an unlikely law school candidate attending Harvard Law School. In her application video, Elle Woods, click-clacking along in her high heels and pink sundress, tells the camera that she “feel[s] comfortable using legal jargon in everyday life.” The audience hears a wolf whistle, and a shirtless man runs up, pats her on the backside, then runs on. She says, “I object!”, gives the camera a big smile, and continues on her way. Although this scene is clearly a comedic Hollywood creation, the legal jargon Ms. Woods …
The Big Sky Shadow Docket: Noncite Opinions And The Montana Supreme Court, Blake Koemans
The Big Sky Shadow Docket: Noncite Opinions And The Montana Supreme Court, Blake Koemans
Montana Law Review
More than half of the Montana Supreme Court’s written opinions in 2022 carry no precedential value and cannot be cited as binding authority to a Montana court. The same is true for opinions issued in 2021, 2020, and 2019. Thousands of opinions—tens of thousands of pages, filled with the Court’s legal reasoning, factual applications, policy judgments, and practical advice—are unusable. Montana is not alone in this phenomenon as unpublished opinions constitute the majority of opinions in many other juris- dictions around the country. Consequentially, this outdated practice is impacting the law in Montana and throughout the country. Nonpublication was an …
The Severe Or Pervasive Standard In The Modern Age, Levi Kimmel
The Severe Or Pervasive Standard In The Modern Age, Levi Kimmel
Montana Law Review
Rising racial tensions in the South following desegregation catalyzed the introduction of the 1964 Civil Rights Act (CRA). However, protections based on gender were not included until the House floor debate on the bill. Congressman Howard Smith, a staunch segregationist, introduced “sex” as a protected class in Title VII of the act as a “poison pill” meant to kill the bill.4 Title VII of the CRA—prior to Smith’s amendment—prohibited employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, or national origin. Supporters of the bill feared the inclusion of sex would cause Northern Democrats allied with labor unions to abandon their support …
Must We All Be Bold As Lions? Unfair Prejudice From Evidence Of Flight And Alternative Standards, Parker Streets
Must We All Be Bold As Lions? Unfair Prejudice From Evidence Of Flight And Alternative Standards, Parker Streets
Montana Law Review
A dramatic escape from a rehabilitation hospital, a high-speed car chase resulting in a crash, and an admission of fleeing to avoid jail. Despite fitting the description of an action movie, State v. Strizich presented a conundrum for the Montana Supreme Court, one that created substantial disagreement among the justices on whether evidence of the defendant’s flight should be admitted at trial. One major disagreement was whether to apply the four inferences test used by the federal courts, whereby courts determine the probative value of flight evidence—and therefore, its admissibility at trial—by assessing: the degree of confidence with which four …

The Montana Supreme Court – The Statistics, Monte Cole, Adam Taub
Montana Law Review
The Montana Supreme Court is Montana’s highest court. Unlike most state court systems, Montana does not have an intermediate appellate court. The Montana Supreme Court hears direct appeals from all of the district courts across the state, as well as from the Workers’ Compensation Court and the Water Court. In keeping with the trends of recent years, the Montana Supreme Court has continued to issue more than twice the number of opinions as the United States Supreme Court. Many of these opinions become binding precedent that Montana’s legal community must keep abreast of and incorporate into their practices and scholarship. …
