In which case did the Warren Court deal with the rights of the accused?

irina [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is D. The Warren Court dealt with the rights of the accused in Miranda v. Arizona.

Explanation:

Miranda v. Arizona is a United States Supreme Court decision proclaimed between February 28 and March 1, 1966 and rendered June 13, 1966. In it, the Court holded that a suspect must be informed of his rights to consult a lawyer and not to self-incriminate before being questioned by the police.

Ernesto Miranda was born in 1941 in Mesa, Arizona. He was frequently convicted and imprisoned; in 1962 he was in Phoenix (Arizona). According to the Phoenix police, he had repeatedly attacked several girls. In March 1963, one of the victims thought she recognized the car of her attacker. Ernesto Miranda was then arrested by the police. During the interrogation, without being informed of his rights or being assisted by a lawyer, Ernesto Miranda admitted his crimes. At trial, the prosecutor used his confession as evidence against him and Ernesto Miranda was convicted of kidnapping and abuse. His lawyer, Alvin Moore, tried to dismiss his confession, he appealed the decision to the Arizona Supreme Court but it confirmed the decision in April 1965.

Robert J. Cocoran, a former civil party lawyer, was aware of the case after the trial in the Arizona Supreme Court. He knew that confessions could easily be obtained from suspects who did not have a very high level of education and most often ignored their rights. In June 1965, he appealed to John J. Flynn, a defense attorney at Lewis and Roca in Phoenix. He agreed to support the case with the help of John P. Frank and Peter D. Baird.

The Supreme Court considered that, given the coercive nature of the interrogation while in police custody (Chief Justice Earl Warren cites several police manuals), the rights of the respondent must be guaranteed.

It was based on two amendments to the Bill of Rights: the Fifth Amendment, which states that no one may be compelled to testify against himself; and the Sixth Amendment, according to which the accused is entitled to counsel.

It is with the aim of safeguarding these constitutional rights that the Court declared that: "The person in custody must, prior to interrogation, be clearly informed that he has the right to remain silent, and that anything he said will be used against him in court; he must be informed that he has the right to consult with a lawyer, and that, if he is indigent, a lawyer will be appointed to represent him".

As these rights were not respected during the interrogation of Ernesto Miranda, the Court annulled his confession as a means of proof.

The modern era came about in part because of which historical event

ValentinkaMS [17]

Modern history, the modern period or the modern era, is the linear, global, historiographical approach to the time frame after post-classical history.

Modern history can be broken down into periods:

• The early modern period began approximately in the early 16th century; notable historical milestones included the European Renaissance, the Age of Discovery, and the Protestant Reformation

• The late modern period began approximately in the mid-18th century; notable historical milestones included the American Revolution, the French Revolution, the Industrial Revolution, the Great Divergence, and the Russian Revolution. It took all of human history up to 1804 for the world's population to reach 1 billion; the next billion came just over a century later, in 1927.

• Contemporary history is the span of historic events from approximately 1945 that are immediately relevant to the present time.

Gibbons v. Ogden from Jackson’s perspective

sweet [91]

Gibbons v. Ogden, 22 U.S. 1 (1824),[1] was a landmark decision in which the Supreme Court of the United States held that the power to regulate interstate commerce, granted to Congress by the Commerce Clause of the United States Constitution, encompassed the power to regulate navigation.[2] The case was argued by some of America's most admired and capable attorneys at the time. Exiled Irish patriot Thomas Addis Emmet and Thomas J. Oakley argued for Ogden, while U.S. Attorney General William Wirt and Daniel Webster argued for Gibbons.
