Resnik, Will
- Abstract
With the continuing advancement of face-to-face video technology in our society, it is inevitable that the Supreme Court is going to have to address this technology's clash with our Constitutional rights. However, the Supreme Court has yet to rule on whether the use of two-way video technology violates our Confrontation Clause rights. This Comment reviews and develops the legal landscape in the Supreme Court and the federal circuits in regards to the use of this technology in the courtroom. With the legal landscape in mind, this Comment asserts that the use of two-way video testimony does not violate the Confrontation Clause. This Comment adopts the view that this technology satisfies the current two-prong test under Maryland v. Craig because it serves important public policies and the testimony via this technology is reliable.
