Miranda V. Arizona: Impact Upon Criminal Procedure Today
Number of pages:
4
ABSTRACT:
4 pages in length. Several case decisions have made Supreme Court Chief Justice Earl Warren a household name throughout the latter part of the twentieth century. One that was particularly pertinent to each and every American was Miranda v. Arizona, which ruled that anyone who is considered to be a criminal suspect must be informed of their constitutional rights prior to any legal inquiry. One of the primary purposes of this decision was to offer protection to those who did not have the means by which to obtain counsel; if it was determined the suspect could not afford to hire private counsel, a representative of the court would come to his or her defense. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
