Monday Morning Jumpstart: short week edition
Who’da thunk it? Fourth of July is almost around the corner (and fireworks are still illegal) and before you know it, it’ll be snowing again. Dammit.
These stories and posts should take your mind of that chilling eventuality:
- A whole bunch of new laws go into effect Tuesday – including, ofcourse, the stiffer penalties for home invasions.
- What effect will California’s same-sex ruling have on the CT Supreme Court (whose decision has been pending over a year, btw)?
- Georgia’s Supreme Court is poised to review a non-capital sentence for proportionality under the Eight Amendment.
- SexCrimes has all the post mortem on Kennedy.
- Scott brings us a juror’s take on a potential sentence incorporating acquitted conduct.
- Maybe our job is not thankless after all?
- The Confrontation Blog deconstructs Giles – part one and part two.
- Answering some questions on the impact of Heller.
- My post on the CT Supreme Court’s year-in-the-making magnum opus reversing kidnapping precedent is here.
Enjoy the day!
