  • 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. I. INTRODUCTION: THREE DEFENDANTS Michailon Rue, a 40-year old Iraq War veteran and resident of the Bronx, was arrested for possession of marijuana in August of 2011.1 He rejected a series of plea deals offered by the Bronx dis- * Notes Editor, COLUM.

  • 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.

  • FORMER MEMBERS U.S. CONGRESS August 31, 2015
    FORMER MEMBERS U.S. CONGRESS August 31, 2015 Dear Member of Congress, We believe that the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action that the United States and our P5+1 partners negotiated with the government of Iran is the most viable means to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon and protect the security of the United States, Israel and other allies. We are writing to you as former Members of Congress to urge your support of this historic agreement. The Joint Plan of Action is a verifiable and enforceable agreement that closes Iran’s pathways to a nuclear weapon while providing unprecedented international inspections of all aspects of Iran’s nuclear program. Should Iran break the agreement, it increases the time that it would take for Iran to enrich enough fissile material for one nuclear weapon, otherwise known as breakout time, from two months to more than a year. Under the agreement, sanctions relief for Iran is tied to verifiable benchmarks and is capable of being snapped back in the event of an Iranian violation of its terms. We know of no viable alternatives to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action that is now before you. We agree that no deal is better than a bad deal. But we also agree that a good deal is better than no deal. Congress has played an important role in making this agreement possible through bi-partisan support of sanctioning and isolating the government of Iran. We urge you and your colleagues to take the next steps by supporting this agreement and then exercising your oversight role through the robust monitoring and evaluation of its implementation.
