It has been accepted for inclusion in Notre Dame Law Review by an authorized administrator of NDLScholarship. For more information, please contact [email protected]. THE DILEMMA OF THE AMERICAN LAWYER IN THE POST-REVOLUTIONARY ERA Anton-Hermann Chroust* On the eve of the Revolution the legal profession in the American colonies,' in the main, had achieved both distinction and recognition. It had come to enjoy the respect as well as the confidence of the people at large. This is borne out, for instance, by the fact that twenty-five of the fifty-six signers of the Declaration of Independence, and thirty-one of the fifty-five members of the Constitutional Convention were lawyers. Of the thirty-one lawyers who attended the Constitutional Convention, no less than five had studied law in England.2 The American Revolution itself, directly and indirectly, affected the legal profession in a variety of ways. First, the profession itself lost a considerable number of its most prominent members; secondly, a bitter antipathy against the lawyer as a class soon made itself felt throughout the country; thirdly, a strong dislike of everything English, including the English common law became wide- spread; and fourthly, the lack of a distinct body of American law as well as the absence of American law reports and law books for a while made the administra- tion of justice extremely difficult and haphazard.

After the most diligent search there is lack of much desired information con- cerning many of our alumni. The compiler regrets that about many graduates of the college he is able to say so little ; and in most cases the, want of knowledge is con- cerning the men about whom the readers of this book most desire to learn. It is the classmate who has been lost sight of that we most wish to know about. But while the compiler appreciates and regrets the defects in this catalogue, he trusts its very faults will stimulate all persons who have information of interest concerning any alumnus, or who discover errors herein, to communicate with him immediately that omissions may be supplied and errors corrected in subsequent editions. Abbreviations have been avoided as far as possible and when used are thought to be self-explanatory. The asterisk (*) is used to mark the names of the dead.

  • Stanford Law Review
    Stanford Law Review Volume 68 March 2016 ARTICLE Probable Cause Revisited William Ortman* Abstract. Most judges, lawyers, and scholars take it for granted that to charge a criminal defendant, the government needs only probable cause of guilt. But in fact, probable cause represents a choice, not a fixed element of our legal tradition. This Article begins with the history of the probable cause standard. It presents novel evidence that many Founding-era American judges rejected the idea, urged by a group of English lawyers and judges a century earlier, that criminal charges require only a “probable ground for accusation.” Many insisted that grand jurors should be certain of a suspect’s guilt before returning an indictment, a charging standard that was well suited to the Founding generation’s anxiety about concentrations of power and their informal criminal trials. Probable cause gained traction as a charging standard in the United States in the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries, when the criminal trial gained the appearance of reliability. Grand juries and magistrates no longer needed to be certain of a suspect’s guilt because a trial jury would be. Or so it must have seemed at the time. The puzzle is that the probable cause standard survived even after the rise of plea bargaining exploded this logic. This Article offers three explanations for probable cause’s survival as a charging standard. First, policymakers may not have valued certainty of guilt, or, for that matter, constraint on prosecution, as much as they once did. Second, “voluntary” guilty pleas may have provided—or appeared to provide—adequate certainty of guilt.
