Recent legal developments: Criminal justice decisions of the United States Supreme Court, 2010 term

Abstract

During its 2010 term, the United State Supreme Court decided 28 cases that dealt with a criminal justice-related issue. While a number of these decisions will have only a slight impact on the daily administration of justice, there were several significant cases involving criminal justice-related topics such as search and seizure, interrogations, and sentencing. We present a summary and analysis of the most significant decisions involving criminal justice. The cases are divided, somewhat roughly, into categories.
