A lot rulings during that period were a reflection of the [William Rehnquist] court's view that we don't need to control or regulate the death penalty, this is a state function," [Richard Dieter] says. "Executing juveniles and the mentally retarded aren't things that we necessarily think are the best as individuals, but there's no constitutional violation. [Anthony Kennedy]'s evolution is only the most recent example of how a justice's views on capital punishment can be tempered over time. Former Justice Harry Blackmun was once a firm supporter of the death penalty, but in a 1994 dissent he wrote: "From this day forward, I no longer shall tinker with the machinery of death. ...

If the government violates the law in a way that stigmatizes a particular group, does a member of that group have standing to challenge the violation in federal court? In the well-known case of Allen v. Wright, the Supreme Court said no. According to the Court, stigmatic harm is too abstract and generalized to support standing in most cases. To permit standing on the basis of stigmatic harm alone, the Court stated, would "transform the federal courts into no more than a vehicle for the vindication of the value interests of concerned bystanders. This Article revisits that decision. It begins by explaining that, despite Allen, the Court has never completely ruled out stigmatic harm as a basis for standing. In equal protection, electoral districting, and Establishment Clause cases, the...
