Criminal Procedure

INSTRUCTIONS:

The purpose of this topic question is to assess your knowledge and understanding of the relevant concepts posited in the readings and lectures. This requires that you submit a well-reasoned and appropriately supported post, using correctly formatted APA cites and references, regarding constitutional authority, interpretation, and actual implementation of criminal procedure. For this discussion address the following: Despite the principle of judicial review and the Supremacy Clause of Article VI of the U.S. Constitution, which gives the U. S. Supreme Court the final word on interpreting the Constitution, in practice, the issue of the final word is debatable. Discuss why in the “real world” of criminal justice, lower federal courts and, more frequently, state trial courts have been allowed the final word on the law of criminal procedure. Please reference and cite your readings and viewings in support of your responses
