A Tribute To Chief Judge Tuttle, Earl Warren

Georgia Law Review

It is entirely fitting that this new and lively journal of the law should be paying tribute to Judge Elbert P. Tuttle. For though he has relinquished his position as Chief Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit because of the statutory age limit he continues to serve that court and to stand for what is young and vibrant and progressive in his State, in the South and throughout the country. I am honored to have been invited to add my few words in praise of a great Judge.

Judge Tuttle came to the federal …

Chief Judge Tuttle And The Fifth Circuit, John M. Wisdom

Georgia Law Review

Before putting pen to paper I asked two men who have worked closely with Elbert Tuttle how, in a word, they would describe his outstanding quality. One of the men is the Deputy Clerk of Court for the Fifth Circuit; the other is a member of our court. The overburdened Deputy Clerk somehow remembered that Judge Tuttle's first opinion concerned electric motors. He hesitated a moment, then answered, "Judge Tuttle's been going like an electric motor ever since his first opinion back in October 1954." Our brother judge did not hesitate. "I can give it to you in one word: …

A Report On Judicial Ethics, Gray Thoron

Cornell Law Faculty Publications

While the ethics of the American judiciary cover a broad spectrum, both good and bad, the general over-all level of judicial ethical performance is relatively high. Most judges are honest and honorable. Where dissatisfaction is apparent, it is far more frequently directed at judicial competence than at judicial integrity and ethics. Corruption, dishonesty, susceptibility to political pressure, and other ethical lapses are, however, not unknown, and on very rare occasions have been extremely bad. The ethical obligations of the judiciary extend far beyond the basic essentials of honesty, impartiality, and fairness. Judges must not only avoid evil or wrongdoing, but …

Has The Court Left The Attorney General Behind? The Bazelon-Katzenbach Letters On Poverty, Equality, And The Administration Of Criminal Justice, Yale Kamisar

Articles

Distribution of the first preliminary draft of the proposed American Law Institute Model Code of Pre-Arraignment Procedure last June touched off a brisk exchange of letters between Chief Judge David Bazelon of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, who maintained that the proposed code left a good deal to be desired, and Attorney General Nicholas deB. Katzenbach, who, although he did not explicitly treat any provision of the preliminary draft, sharply challenged the conception of equality underlying Bazelon's criticism of it. By now, both the code, and the Bazelon-Katzenbach correspondence which it evoked, are …

The All Writs Statute And The Injunctive Power Of A Single Appellate Judge, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

Although section 1651 was enacted in its present form in 1948, the statutory language of subsection (a) can be traced back to the original Judiciary Act of 1789, in contrast to the terminology in subsection (b), the origins of which are obscure. It is clear, however, that both the alternative writ and the rule nisi are granted on motions ex parte and are in the nature of show-cause orders. These writs were at one time used in place of the modern summons or process and also served as a means of framing the issues to be contested before a court …

Controlling The Police: The Judge's Role In Making And Reviewing Law Enforcement Decisions, Wayne R. Lafave, Frank J. Remington

Michigan Law Review

We have chosen to focus here upon judicial involvement (1) in determining whether arrest and search warrants should issue and (2) in reviewing such decisions after they have been executed (and, perhaps, made) by police officials. A comparison of some recent findings respecting the actual practice at the trial level with the "ideal" as set forth in appellate opinions may allow some conclusions to be drawn both as to the present effectiveness of appellate rulings on these subjects and as to the ultimate feasibility of further implementation of those rulings. Finally, since the exclusionary rule is, theoretically at least, one …

Abuse Of Attorneys By Judges, Francis G. Homan Jr.

Cleveland State Law Review

Popular notions have it that almost all misconduct in the courtroom is attributable to attorneys. Yet many practitioners before the bar have suffered abuse by members of the judiciary. How frequently this occurs is not known, but sometimes incidents of non-judicial conduct are revealed in other than case reports.

Judicial Self-Restraint: Political Questions And Malapportionment, Stephen R. Mitchell

Washington Law Review

Justice Felix Frankfurter, dissenting in the Tennessee Reapportionment Case, characterized the holding of that decision as "a massive repudiation of the experience of our whole past." Whether or not this is true we may presently discover, but in the meanwhile Baker v. Carr may safely be described as a truly momentous constitutional decision. Without wishing to labor the obvious, legislative apportionment can be a violently partisan problem which, in the normal course of things, we might expect the Court to bend every effort to avoid. It is an area in which judicial standards are elusive and in which judicial remedies …

The Role Of The American Bar Association In The Selection Of Federal Judges: Episodic Involvement To Institutionalized Power, Joel B. Grossman

Vanderbilt Law Review

One phenomenon of recent domestic politics has been the resurgence of the American Bar Association as a vital, and often influential, group in the political process as well as in the legal profession. There is no better characterization of this than the ABA's assumption of a lead position in a profession-wide campaign to improve the quality of judges selected for the several court systems in the United States. In a relatively short span of time, the ABA has grown from a group with a minimum of influence to one with a quasi-formal role in the federal selection process. Its success …
