The Scope Of Permissible Cross-Examination Of A Party Litigant Or Defendant In A Jury Trial In West Virginia, Lee Ames Luce Jun 1964

The Scope Of Permissible Cross-Examination Of A Party Litigant Or Defendant In A Jury Trial In West Virginia, Lee Ames Luce

West Virginia Law Review

Two fundamental restrictions limit the permissible scope of the cross-examination of a party litigant or defendant in a jury trial. One is the evidentiary restriction limiting cross-examination to those matters discussed in chief, and the second is the constitutional privilege against compulsory self-incrimination. The purpose of this note is to examine the development and application of these restrictions in West Virginia jurisprudence.

The New Scope Of Federal Habeas Corpus For State Prisoners, Willard D. Lorensen Jun 1963

The New Scope Of Federal Habeas Corpus For State Prisoners, Willard D. Lorensen

West Virginia Law Review

The year 1963 may be marked as another milestone in the evolution of the federal writ of habeas corpus. Two recent decisions of the United States Supreme Court have resolved with long needed clarity two threshold problems that face a district court when application for the writ comes from a state prisoner: (1) what issues may be raised and (2) what effect is to be given previous state court consideration of these same issues. Though storms of protest resounded a decade ago about abuse of the writ, the habeas corpus scene in more recent years has been relatively quiet. While …

Conclusive Presumptions In West Virginia, J. L. R. Apr 1959

Conclusive Presumptions In West Virginia, J. L. R.

West Virginia Law Review

Presumptions, as might be expected, have been appearing and disappearing throughout the history of evidence. Much confusion has attended the use of the word, and there has been no less confusion about the kinds of presumptions, be they presumptions of law, presumptions of fact, conclusive presumptions or whatever name courts and writers ascribe to them. The conclusive presumption is an especially troublesome creature, some writers denying its existence while others recognize it but devote very little time to it. It is the purpose here, in a humble way, to look at its use in this state and to determine if …
