- Title
TO TWEET OR NOT TO TWEET: TWITTER, "BROADCASTING," AND FEDERAL RULE OF CRIMINAL PROCEDURE 53.
- Authors
Dean, Jacob E.
- Abstract
The article discusses the argument concerning the place of Twitter use and messages in the Federal criminal courts in the U.S. It analyzes the history and purpose of the Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 53 and discusses the First Amendment right of access to criminal trials, as well as the Sixth Amendment rights of an impartial jury. It also argues that tweeting is not broadcasting and is therefore permissible under Rule 53 of the Constitution in the country.
