    Wolff V. Mcdonnell

    The criminal justice system realizes that inmates do have some rights, however it is also recognized that those inmates do have less rights than free citizens. Taking away some rights of the inmates is a valid punishment and by restricting these rights it helps in maintaining security in prisons. The title of the case that I chose was Wolff v. McDonnell. This case was very important because it uniformed certain rights and freedoms within correctional facilities. “Although inmates received some procedural safe-guards to protect them against the notorious abuses of disciplinary meetings, they did not receive all the due- process rights of a criminal trial” (Clemens, 2002). Nor did the Court question the right of correctional officials to revoke the good time of inmates. In this case, “Robert O. McDonnell, a prisoner, had filed a class- action suit against the state of Nebraska, claiming that its disciplinary procedures, especially those pertaining to the loss of good time were unconstitutional” (Clemens, 2002). McDonnell also complained, along with other inmates, about the limitations on their access to the law library, legal services, and visitation with the inmate legal assistant and that the regulations regarding prisoners ' mail violated the attorney-client privilege” (Keenan, 2005). This case was argued on Argued April 22, 1974 and a decision was made on decided June 26, 1974.…

    Life and the End

    This case is an appeal by Andrew Mugnano, who is incarcerated in a State Penitentiary for first degree murder and for malicious wounding, from a decision of the Circuit Court of Greenbrier County denying him habeas corpus relief. The appellant was indicted for murdering his wife, Theresa Mugnano, and for maliciously wounding her companion. In denying Mugnano habeas corpus relief, the circuit court did not appoint counsel as requested, concluded that Mugnano failed to show adequate grounds for relief. In the present proceeding, Mugnano claims that the circuit court erred in failing to appoint counsel to assist him in the preparation and presentation of his habeas corpus claims and that the court erred in denying him a meaningful hearing on the question of whether the plea agreement was breached and whether his trial attorney 's performance was deficient. In his pro se habeas corpus petition, Mugnano claimed that the State of West Virginia had breached the plea agreement which had resulted in his conviction and that his counsel at that time had failed to afford him effective assistance of counsel by failing to object to the State 's failure to comply with the agreement. Mugnano also requested that the court appoint counsel to assist in the presentation of his case.…

    Constitutional Policing

    The Fourth Amendment is clearly broken in the case of Weeks v. United States, it was a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court unanimously held that the warrantless seizure of items from a private residence constitutes a violation of the Fourth Amendment. It also prevented local officers from securing evidence by means prohibited under the federal exclusionary rule and giving it to their federal colleagues. It was not until the case of Mapp v. Ohio, 367 U.S. 643 (1961), that the exclusionary rule was deemed to apply to state courts as well. On December 21, 1911, Fremont Weeks, the plaintiff in error and defendant, was arrested by a police officer at the Union Station in Kansas City, Missouri where he was employed by an express company. Other officers entered the house of the defendant without a search warrant and took possession of papers and articles which were afterwards turned over to the US marshal. The officers returned later in the same day with the marshal, still without a warrant, and seized letters and envelopes they found in the drawer of a chiffonier. These papers were used to convict Weeks of transporting lottery tickets through the mail. Weeks petitioned against the police for the return of his private possessions.…

    Legal Issues in Criminal Justice

    When it comes to the criminal process, it typically ends when a defendant is found not guilty. However, in retrospect, it does not end whenever a defendant is found guilty, and that is for three primary reasons: 1) the accused must be sentenced; 2) the accused can and often does appeal their conviction; and 3) in the event that the accused’s appeal fails to succeed, the U.S. Constitution provides for them the right to habeas corpus, which is a method of challenging the constitutionality of one’s confinement (Worrall, 2010). However, for the basis of this article, the focus will be placed on issues relating to generalized sentencing as well as the impact of the controversial subject of sentencing guidelines.…
