Reviewing the SCOTUS week that was and the SCOTUS week to come via SCOTUSblog
In this post last Friday, I (not-so) boldly predicted this current week might be a big one at the Supreme Court for criminal justice developments. As regularly readers now know, the Justices did not disappoint. And next week may be more of the same. Helpfully, the fine SCOTUSblog folks have had all these posts to help us keep track of all the SCOTUS criminal justice action:
-
Opinion analysis: A lopsided majority for full retroactivity
-
Opinion analysis: To guideline err is human, to review is now de norm
-
Argument analysis: Criminal penalties for refusal to take a Breathalyzer test in jeopardy?
- Argument analysis: A quiet bench on uncounseled tribal-court convictions
- Argument preview: Growing pains in the mass incarceration and deportation movements
-
Argument preview: May a federal judge “recall” a jury soon after discharge?
I do not feel too guilty cribbing all this content from SCOTUSblog because I wrote the second of these listed posts (the one with the awful pun in the title).
