UNWILLING TO REMEDY THE PAST: THE COST TO STATE RELIANCE INTERESTS TRUMPS ANY BENEFITS OF REDRESSING CONSTITUTIONAL VIOLATIONS IN EDWARDS V. VANNOY.
- Authors
Hegeler, Park
- Abstract
The article focuses on the decision of the U.S. Supreme Court in the case Edwards v. Vannoy wherein the Court mischaracterized the unanimity requirement; unanimity is a "watershed rule" as and ancient requirement that is inherent to the Sixth Amendment's right to a jury trial. It mentions origins of Louisiana's nonunanimous jury scheme and contextualizes the rule with the Court's retroactivity jurisprudence in a Supreme Court case Ramos v. Louisiana.
