Minimum Wages For Prisoners: Legal Obstacles And Suggested Reforms, James J. Maiwurm, Wendy S. Maiwurm Jan 1973

Minimum Wages For Prisoners: Legal Obstacles And Suggested Reforms, James J. Maiwurm, Wendy S. Maiwurm

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

The growing literature on prisoners' rights has not yet focused on inmates' demands for minimum wages and the justification for such demands. This article explains why statutory minimum wage coverage should be extended to inmates, discusses the judicial treatment of prison labor and the minimum wage question, advocates adoption of legislation now pending in Congress, and suggests further legislative reform necessary to implement the minimum wage proposal. Many conditions in our prison system are undoubtedly more harmful and degrading than lack of meaningful wages. This article focuses on only one feasible reform, not on the priorities of prison reform in …


Legal Rights In A Juvenile Correctional Institution, Matthew L. Myers Jan 1973

Legal Rights In A Juvenile Correctional Institution, Matthew L. Myers

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

This article focuses on the effect on juvenile correctional institutions of the erosion of the "hands-off" doctrine and the introduction of procedural safeguards in the juvenile justice system. In so doing, the article examines the difficulties inherent in any attempt to reform institutional practices and procedures to accommodate the goals of the juvenile correctional model. In the juvenile context, the extent to which fundamental rights need or may be abrogated to allow the institution freedom to rehabilitate and treat its inmates is crucial. Therefore, this article examines three areas involving fundamental constitutional rights: imposition of punitive segregation, freedom of communication, …

Police Use Of Firearms In West Virginia--An Empirical Study, James R. Keegan Dec 1972

Police Use Of Firearms In West Virginia--An Empirical Study, James R. Keegan

West Virginia Law Review

In its study of crime and law enforcement in the United States, the President's Commission on Law Enforcement and Administration of Justice found it "surprising and alarming that few police departments provide their officers with careful instruction on the circumstances under which the use of a firearm is permissible." This failure on the part of police administrators leaves the uninformed patrolman, charged with the day to day duty of law enforcement, subject to civil and criminal liability for the wrongful use of his weapon. It also needlessly exposed the innocent bystander to death or grievous bodily harm. To discover the …

Removing The Stigma Of Arrest: The Courts, The Legislatures And Unconvicted Arrestees, William J. Leedom Aug 1972

Removing The Stigma Of Arrest: The Courts, The Legislatures And Unconvicted Arrestees, William J. Leedom

Washington Law Review

Society punishes criminal conduct by incarceration and moral condemnation. Prior to imposing sanctions for the commission of criminal acts, the accused must be proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in accordance with adequate procedural safeguards. Yet each year thousands of unconvicted arrestees are subjected to the same stigma which society imposes on those who are convicted because the records of all arrestees, whether convicted or not, are retained and disseminated by law enforcement agencies. This comment will first present the arrest record debate. The traditional justifications for the present system will be compared with those underlying the new approach to …

Rule-Making And The Police, Carl Mcgowan Mar 1972

Rule-Making And The Police, Carl Mcgowan

Michigan Law Review

That remarkable man, Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, in whose name and by whose providence we are met on this occasion, had many profound perceptions about the nature of law-making. Except for the violence of the Civil War in his youth, his life was largely lived at a time and in a society which seem simple and benevolent by comparison with our own. Some of his generalizations, nevertheless, continue to define accurately the limitations under which we confront the complexities presently assailing us on every side. This is notably true of the administration of criminal justice.


Citation In Lieu Of Arrest: The New California Law, Floyd F. Feeney Mar 1972

Citation In Lieu Of Arrest: The New California Law, Floyd F. Feeney

Vanderbilt Law Review

Sixty years ago, before the traffic infraction became a common occurrence, police departments found it necessary to make physical arrests in the case of each traffic violation. As the number of violations mounted, however, the arrest procedure proved to be too cumbersome and demanding. This led to the invention of a new procedure, the citation of promise to appear. The new system proved to be both convenient and practical and in short order it virtually replaced the old arrest procedure. Surprisingly, however, the invention of the new procedure did not lead to a rethinking of the need to arrest and …

Police Initiated Emergency Psychiatric Detention In Michigan, Mark F. Mehlman Jan 1972

Police Initiated Emergency Psychiatric Detention In Michigan, Mark F. Mehlman

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

While performing his duties a police officer may frequently be confronted with the behavior of an individual which threatens or has resulted in self-inflicted injury, or which poses an imminent threat to the safety of others. Under such circumstances an officer may determine that criminal arrest is inappropriate but that some form of restraint is necessary. Michigan has provided an alternative course of action by authorizing temporary emergency psychiatric detention of an individual whom a police officer deems to be "mentally ill and manifesting homicidal or other dangerous tendencies."
