Detaining Successful Habeas Corpus Petitioners Due To Dangerousness: Hilton V. Braunskill, Ronald P. Adams Nov 1988

Detaining Successful Habeas Corpus Petitioners Due To Dangerousness: Hilton V. Braunskill, Ronald P. Adams

Northern Illinois University Law Review

This Note examines the viability of allowing federal courts to consider the state's interest in public safety as a means of continuing the incarceration of a successful habeas corpus petitioner pending appeal. An analysis of Hilton v. Braunskill shows that the guidelines adopted by the Supreme Court to determine when continued incarceration is permissible fail to adequately balance competing state individual interests thereby denying liberty to persons whose state conviction has been rendered void.

The Misadventures Of State Postconviction Remedies, Larry Yackle Jan 1988

The Misadventures Of State Postconviction Remedies, Larry Yackle

Faculty Scholarship

In a colloquium concentrating on the lower federal courts' jurisdiction to determine federal claims, it falls to me to treat state court opportunities to adjudicate the same issues in advance of, as an aid to, or in place of federal litigation. To do that, I will have to recount some conventional wisdom regarding the development of federal habeas corpus and state postconviction remedies in tandem during the last half century. In due course, I hope to solicit support for an unconventional conclusion to be drawn from that experience.
