Cleveland State Law Review

This Article will examine the change in the exigent circumstances equation. It will also focus on the impact of Rule 41(c)(2) on judicial remedies for warrantless searches. These remedies include suppression on traditional Fourth Amendment grounds, as well as the use of a federal court's supervisory power over the administration of criminal justice.

The Prediction Of Court Appearance: A Study Of Bail In Cleveland, Peter Tyler Enslein

Cleveland State Law Review

Every decision to release a criminal defendant prior to trial involves an evaluation of numerous factors that might affect the likelihood of his later court appearance. This note presents the results of a study of bail in Cleveland, Ohio (the "Cleveland Study"), designed to aid in that evaluation by developing an objective method of predicting the later court appearance of felony defendants.
