IRAC - Response

What was the issue in Plessy v. Fergusson?

Rule: The rule being applied by the SCOTUS in Plessy is the _______ Amendment

Analysis: How did the SCOTUS apply the rule to the law? What test did they create?

IRAC - Response

* Issue:

Rule: The SCOTUS applied the _______ Amendment - equal protection clause to the case

Analysis:

In 1995, teenagers Michael Alvarado and Paul Soto attempted to steal a truck in a shopping mall parking lot in Santa Fe Springs, California. Alvarado approached the passenger side door of the truck, and Soto, holding a .357 Magnum pistol, approached the driver. The driver refused to give Soto the keys, so Soto shot and killed him. Alvarado then helped Soto hide the gun.

Both Alvarado and Soto were convicted of second-degree murder and robbery. Alvarado was convicted in large part because of incriminating statements he made about his involvement in the shooting during a two-hour interview with a police detective about a month after the murder.

At the time of the interview, Alvarado was a 17-year-old high school student. The detective contacted Alvarado’s mother, who agreed to bring him to the police station for questioning. When Alvarado arrived with his parents, the detective denied the parents’ request to remain with their son during the interview. While they waited in the lobby, Alvarado was questioned alone. During the two-hour session, the detective twice asked Alvarado if he wanted to take a break. Alvarado admitted to his role in the killing. At the end of the interview he went home. Alvarado was never advised that he had a right to remain silent, to consult a lawyer prior to answering questions, or to leave the police station.

a. What are the strongest arguments that Alvarado should have been given Miranda warnings at the beginning of the questioning by the detective?

un. ¿Cuáles son los argumentos más fuertes de que Alvarado debería haber recibido advertencias de Miranda al comienzo del interrogatorio por parte del detective?

b. What are the strongest arguments that there was no need to give Alvarado Miranda warnings in these circumstances?

B. ¿Cuáles son los argumentos más fuertes de que no hubo necesidad de dar advertencias a Alvarado Miranda en estas circunstancias?

c. If you were a judge on an appeals court hearing this case, how would you analyze the issue of whether Alvarado was in custody and being interrogated? Should his age and experience be a factor? Explain.

c. Si usted fuera juez en un tribunal de apelaciones que escuchó este caso, ¿cómo analizaría el tema de si Alvarado estaba bajo custodia y estaba siendo interrogado? ¿Debería su edad y experiencia ser un factor? explicar.

d. Should Alvarado have done anything differently? Should the detective have done anything differently?

d. ¿Debería Alvarado haber hecho algo diferente? ¿Debería el detective haber hecho algo diferente?
