Thoughtful Blakely/Booker analyses around the blogsphere
I noticed tonight that a number of blogs have some thoughtful analyses of legal issues surrounding Blakely or Booker:
- Professor Richard Friedman at The Confrontation Blog has this post which, with the help of uber-SCOTUS litigator Jeff Fisher, insightfully discusses the intersection of Blakely and Crawford.
- Michael Ausbrook at INCourts is posting like crazy about Indiana Blakely cases in the wake of the Indiana Supreme Court’s decision in Smylie. I cannot keep up with the specifics, but I note his most recent post asserts that “Blakely just keeps on doing damage as this state’s appellate judging corps seeks new and ever more ingenious ways to avoid its requirements –when it wants to.”
- Steve Kalar at the Ninth Circuit Blog has this post discussing the Ninth Circuit’s recent decision in GunningBooker remands and the pending Ameline III en banc decision.”
- Yuanchung Lee at the Second Circuit Blog has this post discussing the Second Circuit’s recent decision in RubensteinBooker.
