  • A Broken Clock: Fixing New York's Speedy Trial Statute
    A Broken Clock: Fixing New York’s Speedy Trial Statute DANIEL HAMBURG* New York City’s criminal courts, and those in the Bronx especially, are in crisis. Following the institution of “Broken Windows” policing in the mid- nineties, New York City courts have been flooded with misdemeanor cases, preventing the timely administration of justice. The outsized delay that now regularly accompanies misdemeanor cases in the New York City crim- inal justice system creates grave consequences for defendants and for socie- ty as a whole. This Note argues that a major source of the delay in the ad- judication of misdemeanors is New York’s speedy trial statute, CPL 30.30, and the New York Court of Appeals’ decisions interpreting it. In contrast to the statutory approach of the federal government and other states, New York calculates speedy trial time from the prosecution’s declaration of trial readiness rather than from when the defendant’s case is actually heard. As a result, the speedy trial clock is often stalled for months while the de- fendant awaits trial. This Note suggests that by adopting a true speedy trial rule and excluding routine court congestion as a permissible source of delay, while also reviving the constitutional right for misdemeanor cases, the promise of speedy trials can be restored to New York’s criminal courts.

  • New Policing, New Segregation: from Ferguson to New York
    New Policing, New Segregation: From Ferguson to New York JEFFREY FAGAN * AND ELLIOTT ASH§ INTRODUCTION In popular and political culture, many observers credit nearly twenty- 1 five years of declining crime rates to the “New Policing.” Breaking with a past tradition of “reactive policing,” the New Policing emphasizes advanced statistical metrics, new forms of organizational accountability, 2 and aggressive tactical enforcement of minor crimes. The existing research and scholarship on these developments have focused mostly on the nation’s major cities, where concentrated populations and elevated crime rates provide pressurized laboratories for police experimentation, often in the spotlight of political scrutiny. An additional line of scholarship has looked more closely at how the tactics of the New Policing have become institutionalized in police–citizen interactions in the everyday lives of residents of poorer, often minority, and higher-crime areas of the 3 nation’s cities. * Isidor and Seville Sulzbacher Professor of Law, and Professor of Epidemiology, Columbia University. © 2017, Jeffrey Fagan. Fagan was consultant to the U.S. Department of Justice, Special Litigation Section, in the investigation of the Ferguson, Missouri Police Department. He also was expert for Plaintiffs in Floyd v. City of New York, 959 F. Supp. 2d 540 (S.D.N.Y. 2013), challenging the constitutionality of the stop and frisk program of the New York City Police Departments.

TRIBAL AND COMMERCIAL CASINOS IN THE MIDWESTERN UNITED STATES: EFFECT ON COUNTY UNEMPLOYMENT A Thesis Submitted In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Designation University Honors Amber Irlmeier University of Northern Iowa December 2014 Abstract The subject of casinos is constantly surrounded by debate. The proponents of casinos frequently say that casinos bring jobs, and therefore, they will reduce the unemployment rate. This study quantitatively analyzes this claim. Furthermore, previous research looked at either tribal or commercial casinos. This study looks at both tribal and commercial casinos so a comparison can be made between the impacts of the two types of casinos. The sample analyzed is a set of commercial and tribal casinos in eight Midwestern states. The findings are that a commercial casino entering a county is significantly negatively correlated with the unemployment rate, and a tribal casino entering a county is significantly positively correlated with the unemployment rate.
