RETROACTIVITY, STRICKLAND, AND ALIEN CRIMINAL DEFENDANTS: HOW THE CHAIDEZ DECISION RAISED MORE QUESTIONS THAN IT ANSWERED.
- Authors
SUSANJ, DANIELLE R. ACKER
- Abstract
The article discusses the U.S. Supreme Court's (USSC's) ruling in the 2013 case Chaidez v. United States which deals with the legal rights of alien criminal defendants in America, as well as the retroactive application of rules to habeas corpus petitioners in the aftermath of the USSC case Padilla v. Kentucky. The collateral consequences of guilty pleas, deportation, and the Sixth Amendment to the nation's Constitution are examined in relation to the 1984 USSC case Strickland v. Washington.
