CRJ 514 WEEK 6 DISCUSSION

Week 6 - Discussion

Based upon your readings, discussions, and papers for this course, provide your own analyses of the significance of the U.S. Supreme Court and its effects on the criminal justice system. Explain whether or not the functions and focus of the U.S. Supreme Court provide a “best practices” approach to criminal law in the United States. What could be done to improve current Supreme Court practices? It is recommended that your post contain approximately 400 words.

Guided Response: 
You are encouraged to “think outside the box” in this discussion. How essential is it to have one, over-arching court interpreting criminal law for the entire country? Should the entire nation be ruled through one court, or should local, county, state, or even regional customs and practices be allowed or even revered? Review your colleagues’ posts, and substantively respond to at least two of your peers. Continue to monitor the discussion forum until 5:00 p.m. (Mountain Time) on Day 7 of the week, and respond with robust dialogue to anyone who replies to your initial post.
