• Ignorance Is Effectively Bliss: Collateral Consequences, Silence, and Misinformation in the Guilty-Plea Process

In the 2009-2010 term, the U.S. Supreme Court will decide if it matters whether a criminal defense lawyer correctly counsels a client about the fact that the client faces deportation as a result of a guilty plea. Under prevailing constitutional norms in almost every jurisdiction, a lawyer does not have a duty to tell her client about many serious but "collateral" consequences of a guilty plea. Yet, in every jurisdiction that has considered the issue, that very same lawyer will run afoul of her duties if she affirmatively misrepresents a collateral consequence—every jurisdiction, that is, except Kentucky. The Supreme Court of Kentucky recently held that when there is no duty to warn about a consequence because it is collateral, misadvice about that same consequence is not a consti...

• Everybody Cut Footloose1: Recent Developments in the Law of Court-Martial Personnel, Guilty Pleas, and Pretrial Agreements

Ren realizes all the town needs is a dance and, with backing tracks from Kenny Loggins, he eventually convinces the town to let the high school kids have a dance just outside the town's limits.5 It can be said without hyperbole that Footloose is the Citizen Kane of 1980s dance films, the magic of Rebel Without a Cause combined with the emotional gravitas of Frankie and Annette's Beach Party.6 The movie is so profound, it has influenced appellate judges this term to cut loose (footloose) in a series of cases, finding that convening authorities will rarely be disqualified from referring cases, uncovering broad waivers in guilty plea cases, enforcing terms in pretrial agreements that favor the Government while also limiting the Government's ability to withdraw from pretrial agreements, a...
