S. Nicholas and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-03 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Review of the Argument of President Lincoln and Attorney General Bates, in Favor of Presidential Power to Suspend the Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus The argument endeavors to prove the President's power so to suspend the privilege of the writ, so to order such arrests, and that in so doing he is not controllable by the Judiciary; and perhaps, also, its true meaning is, that he is not controllable by Congress either. In other words, it seems to be con tended, that in the exercise of his executive functions, for the suppression of rebellion, at least, if not for all other purposes, he acts by his own arbitrary discretion, free from the control of Congress and the Judiciary - either, or both. The pretension to this power is not confined, either by argument or the President's acts, to such States or districts as may have been proclaimed to be in insurrection; but the power Operates all over the Union, and may be applied equally to a citizen of and in Maine, as to an inhabitant of a pro claimed State. This is a high pretension, now for the first time asserted in behalf of a President. In the existing state of things, and in view of what has already been done, it is a pretension of the most momentous importance. It places the personal liberty of every man in this nation within his arbitrary disere tion. He may arrest any one, without justifiable cause, transport him where he pleases, incarcerate him during the continuance of this war of probably many years' duration, subjecting him during the while to such deprivation, hardship, and humiliation, as the President may think proper to inflict. For all this the citizen is to have no redress. Against such atrocious, tyrannical outrage the law of his country can afford him no redress.

Book Habeas Corpus and Martial Law

Download or read book Habeas Corpus and Martial Law written by Joel Parker and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Habeas Corpus and Martial Law: A Review of the Opinion of Chief Justice Taney, in the Case of John Merryman From the concluding part of the opinion, it appears that the Chief Justice not only denies the right of the President to suspend the writ of habeas corpus, and the right of General Cadwalader to decline compliance with the command of the writ requiring him to appear with the prisoner and show the cause of the detention, but he also denies the right of the military authority to make searches, seizures, and arrests without warrant; and he insists that great and fundamental laws, which even Congress itself could not sus pend, have been disregarded and suspended, like the writ of habcas corpus, by a military order, supported by force of arms. We quote this part of the Opinion, as it has an important bearing upon the reasoning of the Chief Justice. If the arrest might be made by the military authority, without warrant, then it will probably be admitted that the same authority, on making return of the nature of the arrest and detention, may decline to produce the prisoner upon the writ of habeas corpus.

Book The Power to Suspend Habeas Corpus

Download or read book The Power to Suspend Habeas Corpus written by Jeffrey D. Jackson and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The question of which political branch has the power to suspend the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus is a classic constitutional separation of powers question with important consequences for civil liberties. However, the one case squarely addressing the question, Chief Justice Roger B. Taney's opinion in Ex Parte Merryman concerning Lincoln's suspension of the writ during the Civil War, is cited more often as a confrontation of personal wills rather than a valid legal analysis. Although history tends to assume that Taney's opinion was correct as a matter of law, while Lincoln's refusal to acknowledge the opinion was correct as a matter of necessity, the question itself remains unsettled. However, a correct answer to the question is vitally important, as recent events in the war on terror threaten to undermine civil liberties. This article attempts to determine which branch of government has the power to suspend the writ of habeas corpus through an in-depth analysis of the legal arguments surrounding Ex Parte Merryman. In conducting this analysis, it first provides a detailed recitation of the facts surrounding Taney's opinion in Merryman and Lincoln's disregard of that opinion. It then examines the framing and ratification of the Suspension Clause, and the strengths and weaknesses of various legal theories regarding which branch possesses the suspension power, paying special attention to the theories put forth by legal commentators of the period regarding the question. Ultimately, the article concludes that the power to suspend habeas corpus can only reside with Congress, and that the President has no independent power, even in time of emergency, to suspend. Finally, the article examines the relevance of the answer to the question, and its implications today.

This book was released on 2018-10-09 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus Under the Constitution When the first part of the essays under this title was written, there was but one aspect in which the public in this nation re garded suspension of the privilege of the Writ of Habeas Cor pus, namely, in relation to the department of our Government that was competent by the Constitution to initiate suspension, under the conditions annexed to that power. The President, the head of the Executive department, had, it was understood, exercised that power in one or more instances, without authority given by Act of Congress; and the legal competency of his ao tion was, for the time, the exclusive point of view to which the eye was directed. The suggestions in Part I of these essays were made to support one hypothesis on this subject, and to contribute what I could to the collections of thought and re mark which were then being made, to settle in the right way a question that was substantially new, and upon which there Were Opposing Opinions.
