- An inquiry into the right of criminal juries to determine the law in colonial America.
A review of the historical record belies the view that American criminal juries from Colonial times through 1830 had a generally-accepted "right" to judge the law in criminal trials. It appears criminal juries did not have such a right in mid-18th Century Georgia, 17th and early 18th-Century Maryland, or 18th Century Massachusetts. It does appear that criminal juries had some form of lawfinding right in Rhode Island throughout the colonial period. The lack of evidence as to the other states may indicate an absence of any sense that a right to judge the law existed.
