A Complete Property Right Amendment, John H. Ryskamp
A Complete Property Right Amendment, John H. Ryskamp
ExpressO
The trend of the eminent domain reform and "Kelo plus" initiatives is toward a comprehensive Constitutional property right incorporating the elements of level of review, nature of government action, and extent of compensation. This article contains a draft amendment which reflects these concerns.

How Qui Tam Actions Could Fight Public Corruption, Aaron R. Petty
How Qui Tam Actions Could Fight Public Corruption, Aaron R. Petty
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
This Note argues that public corruption at the state and local levels is a serious problem throughout the United States. Because public corruption decreases confidence in the democratic system at all levels of government, a strong response is necessary. Due to difficulties inherent in the deterrence, detection, and prosecution of state and local corruption, innovative methods to respond to this problem are needed. The author argues that amending the federal criminal statutes most commonly used to prosecute state and local public corruption, to allow a private citizen to bring a qui tam civil action against the public official for violations …
Crime, Criminals And Competitive Crime Control, Wayne A. Logan
Crime, Criminals And Competitive Crime Control, Wayne A. Logan
Scholarly Publications
Given the negative consequences of crime, it should come as no surprise that states will endeavor to make their dominions less hospitable to potential criminal actors. This predisposition, when played out on a national stage, would appear ripe for a dynamic in which states will seek to "out-tough" one another, leading to a spiral of detrimental competitiveness.
State V. Martinez: The Boundaries Of Judicial Discretion And The Sixth Amendment Right To Trial By Jury In Arizona, Jamie C. Couche
State V. Martinez: The Boundaries Of Judicial Discretion And The Sixth Amendment Right To Trial By Jury In Arizona, Jamie C. Couche
ExpressO
Is a defendant’s Sixth Amendment right to a trial by jury violated when a sentencing judge considers factors beyond those found by a jury and then imposes a super-aggravated sentence? The Arizona Supreme Court says it is not violated so long as the fact-finding satisfies the Apprendi/Blakely progeny.
Creating A "Hydra In Government": Federal Recourse To State Law In Crime Fighting, Wayne A. Logan
Creating A "Hydra In Government": Federal Recourse To State Law In Crime Fighting, Wayne A. Logan
Scholarly Publications
Traditionally, U.S.-state criminal justice relations have been conceived in two-dimensional terms, with concern primarily dedicated to U.S. usurpations of state authority. As this Article makes clear, however, U.S.-state relations are in significant measure also multi-dimensional and synergistic: rather than being solely engaged in a zero-sum power competition with states, the U.S. in actuality often defers to state laws and outcomes, despite the highly variegated normative positions they embody. As a consequence of this deference, the U.S. at once increases the scope, content and effect of its own criminal justice enterprise, and elevates (not reduces) the sovereign authority of states. The …

Banishing Acts: How Far May States Go To Keep Convicted Sex Offenders Away From Children?, Bret R. Hobson
Banishing Acts: How Far May States Go To Keep Convicted Sex Offenders Away From Children?, Bret R. Hobson
Georgia Law Review
Few legislative goals are more commendable than states' attempts to prevent child sexual abuse. Given the difficult nature of this problem, some judicial deference to legislative efforts is appropriate. Politicians, however, should not receive carte blanche to enact reactionary, overinclusive statutes of questionable efficacy. When laws such as residency restrictions target all convicted sex offenders who have already paid their debt to society, courts should closely examine whether such laws violate substantive due process and the Ex Post Facto Clause. Despite the difficulty in articulating a discrete fundamental right that is infringed by residency restrictions,these laws restrain the liberty of …
Turning Jails Into Prisons—Collateral Damage From Kentucky's War On Crime, Robert G. Lawson
Turning Jails Into Prisons—Collateral Damage From Kentucky's War On Crime, Robert G. Lawson
Law Faculty Scholarly Articles
The primary purpose of this article is to scrutinize Kentucky's ever-increasing reliance on local jails for the incarceration of state prisoners. This objective cannot be achieved without an examination of the problems that compel counties and cities to allow (and even encourage) the state to capture their jails for this use. The first half of the article (Parts I-IV) provides general information about jails (including some pertinent history), contains a detailed description of jail functions (including some that have descended upon jails by default), and concludes with a discussion of what the state has done over two decades to convert …

Jurisdictional Competition In Criminal Justice: How Much Does It Really Happen?, Samuel R. Gross
Jurisdictional Competition In Criminal Justice: How Much Does It Really Happen?, Samuel R. Gross
Articles
It's a familiar image from American fiction: the bad guy ridden out of town on a rail' or beaten up by the sheriff and dumped on the next train out. Where do they go? Banishment is an age-old form of punishment. In America, where an atomized criminal justice system has survived into the twentyfirst century, we can continue to try to dump our criminals on our near neighbors, and-as Doron Teichman points out in his interesting articlethat is not the only way that American states, counties, and cities can try to reduce their own crime rates by exporting crime elsewhere.3 …

Shifts In Policy And Power: Calculating The Consequences Of Increased Prosecutorial Power And Reduced Judicial Authority In Post 9/11 America, Chris Mcneil
ExpressO
Among many responses to the attacks of September 11, 2001, Congress and the states have shifted to the executive branch certain powers once held by the judicial branch. This article considers the impact of transferring judicial powers to prosecutorial officers, and compares the consequent increased powers of the prosecutor with those powers traditionally held by prosecutors in Japanese criminal courts. It considers the impact of removing from public view and judicial oversight many prosecutorial functions, drawing comparisons between the largely opaque Japanese prosecutorial roles and those roles now assumed in immigration and anti-terrorism laws, noting the need for safeguards not …
The Market For Criminal Justice: Federalism, Crime Control, And Jurisdictional Competition, Doron Teichman
The Market For Criminal Justice: Federalism, Crime Control, And Jurisdictional Competition, Doron Teichman
Michigan Law Review
Part I introduces the concepts of jurisdictional competition and crime displacement and argues that, as a positive matter, a decentralized criminal justice system may create a competitive process among the different units composing it, in which each such unit attempts to divert crime to neighboring communities. Part II then turns to evaluate the normative aspects of jurisdictional competition in the area of criminal justice. In this context I will show that competition can have both advantages and disadvantages. On one hand, the forces of competition might drive jurisdictions to fight crime efficiently, since any jurisdiction that functions inefficiently will suffer …

Revoke First, Ask Questions Later: Challenging Minnesota’S Unconstitutional Pre-Hearing Revocation Scheme, Jeffrey S. Sheridan, Erika Burkhart Booth
William Mitchell Law Review
This analysis of the constitutionality of Minnesota’s prehearing revocation scheme begins by explaining the mechanics of Minnesota’s implied consent statute. Because the United States Supreme Court has established minimum procedural due process protections that must be afforded drivers, this backdrop is examined. After considering the federal standards for procedural due process, the numerous changes to Minnesota’s implied consent statute will be addressed. Next, the current challenge will be discussed, including the factual basis for the challenge, the arguments for the statute’s unconstitutionality, and the district court’s decision. Finally, this note will conclude that, given the dramatic increase in the private …
