Mindful of the English background and of constitutional developments in the several states, Orth in a succinct and readable narrative traces the history of due process, from its origins in medieval England to its applications in the latest cases. Departing from the usual approach to American constitutional law, Orth places the history of due process in the larger context of the common law. To a degree not always appreciated today, constitutional law advances in the same case-by-case manner as other legal rules. In that light, Orth concentrates on the general maxims or paradigms that guided the judges in their decisions of specific cases. Uncovering the links between one case and another, Orth describes how a commitment to fair procedures made way for an emphasis on the protection of property rights, which in turn led to a heightened sensitivity to individual rights in general.

Due Process In Nigeria S Administrative Law System written by Oneyebuchi T. Uwakah and has been published by University Press of America this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1997 with Law categories.
This book, which relies on primary and secondary printed sources and a series of interviews with affected persons, lawyers, judges, and customary court presidents in Nigeria, focuses on the place of due process in the Nigerian legal system. Uwakah is concerned about the abuse of this important fundamental right in his country. The purpose of the book is to examine how due process operates in Nigeria and whether the coexistence of the customary law, the English common law, the Moslem law, and the martial law systems in Nigeria hinders or enhances due process in the country. Finally, the study investigates the suitability of the British version of due process to Nigeria, since the concept is imported to the country. The book concludes that the British version of due process is unsuitable to Nigeria because the country's political, economic, social, and religious backgrounds substantially differ from those of Britain. This conclusion is premised on the consensus of the interviewees. Uwakah recommends the country's immediate transition from military to civilian rule.

Topics such as military tribunals, same-sex marriage, informative privacy, reproductive rights, affirmative action, and states' rights fill the landscape of contemporary legal debate and media discussion, and they all fall under the umbrella of the Due Process Clauses of the United States Constitution. However, what is not always fully understood is the constitutional basis of these rights, or the exact list of due process rights as they have evolved over time through judicial interpretation. In The Arc of Due Process in American Constitutional Law, Sullivan and Massaro describe the intricate history of what are currently considered due process rights, and maintain that modern constitutional theory and practice must adhere to it. The authors focus on the origins and contemporary uses of due process principles in American constitutional law, while offering an overarching description of the factors or normative concepts that allow courts to invalidate a government action on the grounds of due process. They also analyze judicial interpretations and expressions as a key manner and perhaps the most powerful source of how due process has taken form in the United States. In the process of charting this arc, the authors describe the judicial analysis of rights within each category applying an illustrative list, and identify several fundamental norms that span these disparate threads of due process and the most salient principles that animate due process doctrine.

Magna Carta and Due Process of Law: The Road to American Judicial Activism provides a superb history of the rise of Parliament and the American Constitution. Unlike other authors covering this topic, Thomas Burrell examines American courts and discusses judicial activism. The due process language in the Magna Carta and English history reveals a strenuous effort to establish and protect participatory government from the arbitrary king ruling by will. In America, the framers of state and federal constitutions copied the language. Courts and common-law constitutionalism, however, rewrote the concept of the language. American courts have championed substantive due process to the detriment of representative government. After introducing the subject matter, Burrell provides a brief history of medieval political theory. The theory of kingship is examined and discussed. In the third chapter, we learn of Henry II’s rule per voluntatem as well as his assizes and the birth of the common law. The fourth chapter discusses King John and his fight with the barons leading up to the 1215 Magna Carta. With the Magna Carta, the barons established a foothold in the fight against the arbitrary king. The fifth chapter examines the remainder of the thirteenth century. With additional reform efforts, the barons took the gains of the Magna Carta to another level. Following Henry III’s reign, Edward I was a good king who ruled with his Council in Parliament. The sixth chapter discusses the rise of participatory government in the fourteenth century. During Edward II’s reign, the barons and Ordainers infiltrated the king’s Council in Parliament and transformed Parliament into a baronial system with lords and peers. In this chapter, the Commons’ petition is discussed along with the Council and the common law. Knights and burgesses, the Commons, frequently complained of royal or conciliar encroachment on the common law and Parliament’s law of the land—the need to safeguard due process of law from arbitrary forces. The seventh chapter summarizes medieval English legal history and the High Court of Parliament. Burrell makes several observations about the English Constitution. The eighth chapter carries the English Constitution into the seventeenth century. Briefly, this chapter notes conflict during the Stuarts and the resulting changes to the English form of government. Many of the gains introduced with the Magna Carta and fourteenth-century reforms were realized in the seventeenth century. The ninth chapter discusses the American Constitution and the Fifth Amendment. The Fifth Amendment uses language directly from Magna Carta’s Chapter 39. The tenth chapter examines judicial activism and substantive due process in the state and federal courts. American judges in the early nineteenth century struggled with language and fused variable meanings and constitutional common law to the concept of due process of law. Ultimately, judges inverted the original meaning from protecting participatory government to creating arbitrary government in the judiciary. One case precedent provided authority for the next until a complete fabrication of the concept was achieved. America became a judicial state. In this judicial state, judges have the power to socially reengineer society by inventing constitutional restrictions on representative government. The people are left out of the equation. Whether you are on the American or English side of the Atlantic, you’ll find Magna Carta and Due Process of Law: The Road to American Judicial Activism educational and rewarding. Have a position on gay marriage, abortion, equal rights, religious liberty, or the death penalty? Improve your knowledge and argument with Magna Carta and Due Process of Law. In the process, you’ll learn about English legal history, the American Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the United States Supreme Court.

Stevens sees three crises in American judicial statesmanship. The first was the crisis of the founding. The well being of the country was subjected to grave danger, culminating in the crisis of the Civil War, and a refoundation was required. During the mid twentieth century, the United States faced the possibility of destruction, World War II and, the finding of malfeasance of the nation in the office of the president. The constant excitement of contest with antagonists makes it difficult to say whether the current crisis of the Supreme Court is merely a continuation or a whole new problem.The political leaders who resolved the first crisis and founded the Republic bequeathed as a part of that foundation the United States Supreme Court. During the subsequent history of the country, and with respect to its crises, the Court played a large part. Whether or not it does so well in the current period depends upon the quality of its judicial statesmanship. The judge is a person who acts. But it is considered action and considered action is based on prior understanding. The character of the Court's understanding, or direction, reveales itself in the course of its division over the application of the "due process" clause to state criminal proceedings.Frankfurter's view is problematic. If Western civilization is to be preserved, it must be because it is worth preserving. If it is worth preserving it must be because it is good. If so, can it be preserved by reliance upon and reference to itself, or must reliance not be placed upon that by virtue of which the thing to be preserved is worthy of preservation? This problem is not new to Western civilization. Much has been written about Frankfurter, and common descriptions of the terms "restraint" and "pragmatism" to characterize his doctrines. Previous treatments of these doctrines now available have not seemed adequate. The intention of "Reason and History in Judicial Judgment" is to treat them as ethical problems rather than as self-explaining conclusions.

Excerpt from Due Process of Law Under the Federal Constitution The plan of the series to which this volume belongs offers a happy opportunity to trace the application of certain fundamental ideas throughout the extended field of American law. By isolating "due process of law" and devoting to it a separate "study" the history and elements of the conception, its relation to other constitutional guaranties, and the part it has performed and is still performing in the upbuilding of a system of individual rights should emerge more clearly than is possible in a general treatise on constitutional law. If I have failed to effect in some measure these objects, the), fault is wholly my own. No richer or more interesting field could offer itself to the student or practitioner. The object of this study is to present the views of the subject entertained by the United States Supreme Court, upon which devolves the final decision of questions of due process both in proceedings by the federal authorities and in those by the state. According!, the material of this volume is primarily the decisions of that court. An effort has been made to include all the decisions of the court through 199 U. S. Decisions of other jurisdictions have been used only as far as seemed necessary to round out, to the best of my judgment, the discussions of the questions involved from an historical or logical point of view.
