The prospectus regarding the sale reported the estate of Patrick Dillon, and of solicitor Henry Ffrench Esq. and Patrick's father Richard Dillon, Trustees, in part of the lands of "Clonegrasson, East", known on the ordnance survey as Cloonagrassan, containing 128 acres, 1 rood and 38 perches, statute measure, situate in the Barony of Ballymoe and County of Roscommon, and held in fee simple, was to be sold in one lot on 30 April 1867 at the Landed Estates' Court, Inn's-Quay, in the city of Dublin.
The descriptive particulars of the property stated that "the railway from Dublin to Castlebar passes through the lands, which are situate about half a mile from the Ballymoe Station of the Great Northern and Western Railway of Ireland. They are within four miles of Castlerea, and eight of Roscommon, by railway. The upland is a good arable soil, held by industrious tenants, who pay their total net annual rents of £68 8s. 5 ½d., punctually. There is a large quantity of bog attached to the lands, which makes them of great value."
The conditions of sale included historical information about the property's most recent previous sale transaction in addition to conditions included in the current sale.

The conveyance of the owner's interest was to be made by general reference to the life estate, under the said deed of 16 June 1863, and the purchaser was not object to on that account.

(Party to Deed) Deed Memorial 20 May 1873 A memorial of an Indenture dated 20 May 1873 was made between Margaret (Dignan) Ffrench, wife of Henry Ffrench Esq. of the first part, the said Henry Ffrench Esq. of the second part, Margaret's brother, Philip Dignan Esq., of River View, South Brisbane Queensland, Australia, of the third part, Patrick Trears of Ballymoe in the county of Galway, merchant, of the fourth part, and the said Patrick Trears and Michael Broderick of Castlerea, county of Roscommon, merchant, of the fifth part.
Ireland's memorial deeds are handwritten, and the microfilmed copies are often difficult to read. Additionally, we are uncertain, in some instances, that we have identified the correct townlands. In earlier times, how the name of a townland was spelled depended upon how the initial scribe heard the name pronounced, and then how future scribes interpreted what was written. As a result, the names and spellings of many Irish townlands were spelled differently from deed to deed, book to book and year to year. Attempts to standardize the spelling of Ireland's townlands began around the turn of the 20th century. A townland's Barony did not always remain constant, either. Changes were made as populations grew. Our own transcription that follows attempts to identify the correct townlands mentioned in the deed and spell them in the current (2020) standard form. Our placement of quotation marks around a townland's name means we remain uncertain about our selection of the correct townland, or have used the spelling as we saw it in the deed because we couldn't find a good guess. Our transcription follows, and we welcome suggestions and corrections:
Reciting the Indenture of Settlement effected on the marriage of the said Henry French and Margaret Dignan, parties to memorializing deed, was dated 15 November 1847.

Thomas Trears1
Father* Patrick Trears2 d. 11 Nov 1899
Mary was the only deceased wife mentioned in the will of Thomas's father, so we suspect she was Thomas's mother2
Birth* 1843 Thomas Trears was born about 1843 in County Galway, Ireland.1�
(Son) Will 28 January 1895 Thomas was named in the will of his father dated 28 January 1895 in Ballymoe, County Galway. The Tuam District Registry's copy was prepared without paragraphs, so we have taken the liberty of separating the thoughts where we thought appropriate for ease of reading. We have not modified any spelling or punctuation that we are aware of. Our transcription of the registry's copy follows:
Census Ireland 1901* 1901 Thomas appeared as Head of the Family on the 1901 census in Ballymoe, County Galway, Ireland. His sister Bedelia Dillon was the owner of their home and resided there also. Thomas was 58 years of age and a farmer, and Delia, a widow, was 60 years of age. Her occupation was recorded as "House Holder". Also residing in the home in 1901 were Delia's daughter, Kate Alice Dillon, and her niece, Florence Rorke. Kate was 36 years of age and unmarried, and Florence was 17 and a scholar. The final member of the household was Mary Trears who was identified as a servant. Her surname suggests she may have been a relative of the extended Patrick Trears family.1�
Census Ireland 1911* 1911 Thomas Trears and his sister Bedelia Dillon appeared together again on the 1911 census in Ballymoe, County Galway. Thomas was 67 years of age and a farmer, and Delia was 70 years of age. She was a widow and had given birth to six children, five of whom were still living. Her niece Florence O'Rorke, who was recorded as 25 years of age and single, resided in her aunt's home in 1911, and Mary Trears, who was single and 50 years of age lived with the family as a servant.3�

HEARD AT HALFTIME: Mori expected to resign Friday; IOC wants U.S. rights enforcement help; world 1,500 m record for Ethiopia's Tsegay

News, views and noise from the non-stop, worldwide circus of Olympic sport:
● Games of the XXXII Olympiad: Tokyo 2020 ● Reports indicate that Tokyo 2020 chief Yoshiro Mori, 83 and a former Japanese Prime Minister, will resign on Friday (12th) in the aftermath of remarks critical of women at a Japanese Olympic Committee meeting on 3 February.
Kyodo News reported that former Japan Football Association President Saburo Kawabuchi may be named to replace Mori. At 84, he is a year older than Mori and is recognized as the founder of the nation's successful J. League. He is already serving the Tokyo 2020 organizing committee as the head of the Olympic Village.
The chief executive of Tokyo 2020 remains Toshiro Muto.
The International Olympic Committee and the Tokyo 2020 organizers posted the final "playbook" of the its first series, this time covering athletes and officials.
There were very few surprises in its 33 pages, as most of the requirements had been previously shared. Athletes and officials will be expected to test negative for the coronavirus within 72 hours of leaving for Japan and may be tested again on arrival, and then every four days while in Japan.
Use of public transit is only a last resort and athletes will be temperature checked when entering an Olympic site and will be admitted only with readings of less than 37.5 C (99.5 F). In line with the regulations already in use in Japan, athletes are asked to "[a]void unnecessary forms of physical contact such as hugs, high-fives and handshakes" and to "[a]void shouting, cheering and singing – find other ways to show support or celebrate during competition, such as clapping."
There will be additional details for the Opening and Closing Ceremonies to be provided in the April update to the instructions. But for now, most of the people who will travel to Japan for the Games have an idea of what will be expected of them. The group most affected by the "playbook" program is clearly the press and photographers, with broadcasters also substantially impacted.
A major development on the relationship between the IOC and the U.S. government surfaced last week, with the public disclosure of a 28 January letter from IOC Chief Operating Officer Lana Haddad (GBR) and Legal Affairs Director Mariam Mahdavi (SUI) to Daniel Lee, the Acting Assistant U.S. Trade Representative for Innovation and Intellectual Property.
The two-page letter explains the IOC's continuing concerns in Saudi Arabia: "we note the significant difficulties sports rightsholders have experienced in protecting their intellectual property rights despite the establishment of the [Saudi Authority for Intellectual Property Rights] (many of which were set out in our submission dated 6 February 2020) and stakeholders report that there are ongoing, significant challenges in Saudi Arabia with respect to IP protection and enforcement.
"We are extremely concerned of the impact that online piracy could create during the next 12 months, which will include extensive broadcast coverage of not only the Olympic and Paralympic Games Tokyo 2020, but also the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing. An effective IP protection system will be essential to ensure an environment which enables these Olympic Games editions to reach the broadest possible audiences in [Middle East and North Africa region], via our broadcasting partnerships, while protecting the longterm funding of the Olympic Movement by ensuring concerted action to curb satellite and online piracy of sports content."
Haddad and Mahdavi asks the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative "maintains Saudi Arabia's position on the Priority Watch List, engages with the Kingdom to protect and enforce the intellectual property rights of rightsholders and considers taking further appropriate steps in order to address the ongoing harm caused to rightsholders and broadcasters from copyright infringements and piracy activities."
TorrentFreak.com reported "The most egregious offender was the streaming service beoutQ, which disappeared in 2019. By then, however, many Saudis had become used to cheap streaming options and many unlicensed services remain available today. This is a problem and the IOC calls for stronger enforcement in the region."
Where the World Anti-Doping Agency and others have protested extra-territorial jurisdiction of the U.S. in their spheres, the IOC continues to ask the U.S. government to police Saudi Arabia with regard to its television rights sales. Amazing, and something worth considering as other U.S.-related issues bubble up on the way to the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles.
Separate from all of this is the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee, which is not funded by the U.S. government, but benefits from hundreds of millions of dollars each quadrennial from share of U.S. television rights sales and IOC sponsorships. But could this impact IOC discussions concerning the recent passage of S. 2330, which allows the Congress to dismiss the USOPC Board by a Joint Resolution? Stay tuned.
NBC announced on Wednesday that it would air its broadcast of the Tokyo 2020 opening ceremony live on 23 July, beginning at 6:55 a.m. Eastern time, with a prime-time enhanced broadcast that evening.
This is not completely new in that NBC has shown prior opening events via a live stream of the world feed, but without its own announcers, features and graphics.
● Alpine Skiing ● The 2021 World Alpine Championships in Cortina d'Ampezzo (ITA) have been impacted by heavy snowfalls and fog, but hopes to get underway on Thursday (11th) with the Super-G for both men and women, with the Downhills on the 13th (women) and 14th (men).
American star Ted Ligety announced he will retire after the Giant Slalom in Cortina, capping a brilliant 17-year career. "I definitely achieved far more in my career than I would have ever thought as a 16/17-year-old kid when my coaches were telling me I'd be a good college athlete," he said.
Now 36, Ligety debuted on the World Cup circuit in 2003 and piled up 25 World Cup wins (24 in Giant Slalom, one in Slalom), seven World Championships medals, including five golds and two Olympic golds, in the Combined in 2006 and the Giant Slalom in 2014. He won three golds in a single Worlds at Schladming (AUT) in 2013, taking the Combined, Giant Slalom and Super-G.
Ligety will be long remembered as a competitor, but will still be involved through his winter-wear apparel and equipment company Shred, but will get to spend more time with wife Mia and his three young children.
● Athletics ● The World Athletics Indoor Tour got hot in Lieven (FRA) on Tuesday night at the Hauts-de-France meet with a world indoor record and world-leading marks in six events, including a world 1,500 m record from Ethiopia's Gudaf Tsegay.
She had targeted the 2014 mark of countrywoman Ginzebe Dibaba of 3:55.17 and passed 800 m in 2:05.94 and finished with a final 400 m of 60.19 to chop more than two seconds off, finishing in 3:53.09. British star Laura Muir followed in a British indoor record of 3:59.58. The other world leads:
● Men/1,500 m: 3:31.80, Jakob Ingebrigtsen (NOR)
● Men/3,000 m: 7:24.98, Getnet Wale (ETH)
● Men/60 m hurdles: 7.32, Grant Holloway (USA ~ American Indoor Record!)
● Men/Long Jump: 8.25 m, Juan Miguel Echevarria (CUB: 27-0 3/4)
● Women/3,000 m: 8:32.55, Lemlem Hailu (ETH)
Ingebrigtsen won easily and set a European indoor mark, moving to no. 5 on the all-time list. Wale, better known as a steepler, authored the no. 2 performance in history, scaring the 7:24.90 world mark by Daniel Komen (KEN) back in 1998! He led a 1-2-3-4 finish for Ethiopia, with Selemon Barega not far behind in 7:26.10 (no. 3 performance in history), then Lamecha Girma in 7:27.98 (no. 6 performer ever) and Berihu Aregawi (7:29.24: no. 8 performer ever).
Holloway improved his own American Record of 7.35 from earlier this year the 7.32 is the no. 2 performance ever, just behind Colin Jackson (GBR) and his 7.30 from 1994. Wow!
Swede Mondo Duplantis won the vault, but with a pedestrian – for him – clearance of 5.86 m (19-2 3/4), ahead of Chris Nilsen (USA: also 5.86 m) and Renaud Lavillenie (FRA: 5.80 m/19-0 1/4). World-record setter Hugues Fabrice Zango (BUR) won the triple jump with an impressive 17.82 m (58-5 3/4), the no. 8 performance in history.
Hailu's won in the 3,000 m was especially impressive, as she beat Dutch star Sifan Hassan to the line, 8:32.55 to 8:33.62, as well as Kenya's outdoor Steeple world-record holder, Beatrice Chepkoech (8:34.21).
The two-time Olympic gold medalist in the 110 m hurdles, Roger Kingdom, scored another distinction as the strength and conditioning coach of the Super Bowl champ Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
In case you were wondering, Olympedia lists three Olympians who also played on winning Super Bowl teams: 1964 sprint winner Bob Hayes, who played with Dallas when it won the 1972 Super Bowl; Mike Carter, the 1984 shot silver medalist who won three titles as a defensive tackle with the San Francisco 49ers in 1985-89-90, and Nate Ebner, a Rugby Sevens Olympian in Rio in 2016 who was a member of the 2015-17-19 New England Patriots. Now you know.
● Basketball ● ESPN reported that USA Basketball is in the planning stages of a "bubble" training program prior to the Tokyo Games for its men's team and medal-class teams from Australia and Spain. The NBA playoff schedule could go as long as 22 July – one day prior to the Opening Ceremony in Tokyo – but the U.S. team training camp is expected to open around 4 July.
Australia and Spain – the reigning World Cup champion – also have significant NBA participation on their rosters and so a U.S.-based camp environment would be attractive.
Because of the conflict of dates with the NBA playoffs, USA Basketball is asking to allow player substitutions during the tournament. Usually not allowed, the date conflict is a by-product of the coronavirus, so substitutes during the Games makes sense. However, the question of virus protocols will have to be worked out to the satisfaction of the Tokyo organizers (and medical staffs).
● Curling ● It had to happen, of course. One day after posting of our revised, 649-event calendar for the remainder of 2021, the World Curling Federation cancelled its 2021 Women's World Championship.
Scheduled for Schaffhausen (SUI) from 19-28 March, the event "has been cancelled following a decision by the Swiss Local Health Authority not to support the event.
"The World Curling Federation and the event's Local Organising Committee were informed that due to the current pandemic situation and concerns around the spread of new variants, permission to host an international sporting event will not be granted. This decision was made despite the extensive efforts by the World Curling Federation, the local organisers and Swiss Curling to develop a set of comprehensive safety protocols to deliver a COVID-safe event."
● Cycling ● During a two-day meeting of the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) management committee, multiple rule changes were made for road cycling to ensure better safety, but may not be so well regarded by riders.
Cycling World reported that riders will not be allowed to use the "forearms-on-bars" position except during time trials, and banned sitting on the top tube, known as the "super-tuck" position. Neither is expected to be well received.
The UCI promised serious action against littering on the course and "the sport's governing body also confirmed that riders could be fined, docked ranking points and penalised time if they throw objects such as [water bottles] and waste in a careless or dangerous manner or outside of new litter zones.
"In stage races, a first infringement of throwing waste can be punished with a 30-second penalty, a second infringement with a two-minute penalty, while a third infringement could lead to disqualification." Races are being told to create new disposal zones for litter every 30 to 40 km. The new rules come into effect on 1 April.
● Gymnastics ● The Federation Internationale de Gymnastique (FIG) has cancelled the European legs of its All-Around World Cup Series in Europe:
"Despite the organisers' best efforts, the reinforcement of entry bans in Europe in recent weeks has drastically reduced the ability of foreign athletes to take part in events in the continent, leading first to the cancellation of the World Cup in Germany last week, then of the World Cup in Birmingham this week.
"The World Cup in Tokyo on 4 May, which serves as a test event for the Games in Artistic Gymnastics, remains unaffected for the moment."
The remaining quota places for the Tokyo Games will be determined through the Apparatus World Cup series later this year and the continental championships. The U.S. picked up an additional place for Tokyo in women's gymnastics because of its placing at the qualifications at the 2019 World Championships!
USA Gymnastics won a round in court with the agreement of the plaintiffs in a suit filed in Las Vegas, Nevada against a gymnastics school to remove all claims against the federation.
The plaintiffs can continue their suit against the gym and its staff members, but have dropped USA Gymnastics. The federation's attorneys had asked for relief from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Indiana under the automatic stay granted in bankruptcy matters against litigation commenced after the bankruptcy filing date.
Sad news from Chicago, where Dianne Durham, age 52, passed away on 4 February. She was the first Black gymnast to win a U.S. All-Around title, in 1983. She won three events – beam, floor exercise and vault – and a silver on the uneven bars.
She was expected to make the 1984 Olympic squad, but had to withdraw from the Olympic Trials due to an ankle injury. She petitioned to make the squad, but was denied because she had not competed at the 1983 World Championships, despite a request from Olympic coach Bela Karolyi.
Following her competitive career, Durham remained deeply involved in the sport, as both a coach and judge.
● Ice Hockey ● Two of the biggest stars on the gold-medal-winning U.S. women's national teams retired together on Tuesday: Monique Lamoreaux-Morando and Jocelyne Lamoreaux-Davidson.
The twins announced their decision together: "Our dream since as long we could remember was to wear the red, white and blue and become Olympic champions together.
"As twins, our hockey career and lives will forever be intertwined, so it is only fitting that we are retiring together as well. We want to thank USA Hockey for giving us the opportunity to represent our country for so many years. It is the right time for us to step away from the game as players but we will remain in hockey in some capacity moving forward. Thank you to all of our teammates, coaches and fans who have supported us during our hockey journey."
The pair, both now 31, played on the U.S. squad for 14 years and Olympic silvers in 2010 and 2014 and gold in 2018. Monique, on defense, and Jocelyne, a forward, played on World Champion teams in 2009-11-13-15-16-17.
● Swimming ● Sprinter Margo Geer, 28, announced her retirement on Tuesday, despite being a contender for the U.S. team at the Tokyo Games.
She wrote on Instagram, "For 23 years you have been an enormous part of my life. …
"You ignited something deep inside of me – a competitive fire. One so strong that no disappointment could be too painful, and no success could be too gratifying to extinguish."
Geer is the "head coach-in-waiting" at the University of Alabama. She won three NCAA titles for the University of Arizona in 2013-14 and won four FINA World Championships medals on relays in 2015 and 2019. She finishes with bests of 24.72 in the 50 m Free (no. 15 on the all-time U.S. list) and 53.44 in the 100 m Free (no. 38 all-time world and ninth all-time U.S.).
She will take over at Alabama in August of this year.
● Weightlifting ● The International Weightlifting Federation released a "provisional" list of candidates for its forthcoming elections, with 11 candidates for President, 11 for Secretary-General, 17 for First Vice President, 41 for Vice President and 71 for the IWF Executive Board. Many individuals are candidates for multiple offices.
The striking feature of the lists is the presence of candidates from countries which are already subject to sanctions. There are candidates for President and Secretary-General from Iran, Kazakhstan and Romania, all on the sanctions list.
Further, both of these offices have candidates from elected members of the existing, ineffective and under-observation IWF board from Finland, Greece, Great Britain, Iraq, Kazakhstan and Romania. Right at the top of the list are the Interim President, Dr. Michael Irani (GBR), who had indicated he would not run (but of course he is), and the existing Secretary-General Mohammed Jalood (IRQ).
American Ursula Papandrea, for a short time the Acting President of the IWF following the resignation of long-time chief Tamas Ajan (HUN), has declared her candidacy for President, Secretary-General, First Vice President and Vice President.
The IWF Executive Board met with IOC Sports Director Kit McConnell (NZL) on 5 February and promised quick reforms on athlete representation and governance. Elections are scheduled for 26-27 March with the final list of candidates (after vetting) to be announced at least 30 days prior.
● At the BuZZer ● American bobsledder – and now World Champion – Lolo Jones reveled in her win with driver Kaillie Humphries last week, as usual, on Twitter:
"Old."
"Washed up."
"You should retire."
"Can't medal."
"11 years since my last World champs medal. 11 years of hate."
"Ignore them all. Keep grinding." Pretty good advice.

Record Expenditure from Visitors into Mackay
A record $545 million in domestic overnight expenditure has been injected into The Mackay Region, according to the latest data from Tourism Research Australia.
The National Visitor Survey (NVS) reports that for year ending March 2019, domestic visitor expenditure increased a remarkable 22.9 per cent across a three-year trend.
The record investment has been made by the one million visitors to Mackay, with March 2019, representing a tenth successive quarter of visitor growth, and a 12.2 per cent three-year trend growth.
Also contributing to the record expenditure has been significant increases in visitor nights, now sitting at 4 million, and the average visitor spend. Each new domestic visitor to The Mackay Region now spends on average $544, boosting economic growth, and creating jobs and flow on effects for the Mackay and Isaac communities.
Mayor Greg Williamson welcomed today's National Visitor Survey data and the corresponding increases in visitation and expenditure.
"A new record for domestic visitation is an outstanding achievement for our region, and further proof that tourism is establishing itself as a key pillar of our economy," Cr Williamson said.
"Mackay's beautiful tropical weather and our friendly locals are always very welcoming of visitors, and as a community, we recognise and value the significant contribution these visitors continue to make to our region's economy," he said.
The Mayor said council was committed to continuing to invest in tourism.
"We do that through programs like our Recreational Fishing Strategy with its regional marketing campaigns and habitat improvement projects and our Invest Mackay Events Attraction Program, which continues to kick goals in securing business, sport and entertainment events," he said.
The increases in domestic visitation and expenditure is good news for the region's tourism businesses, with many reporting strong growth in the number of visitors.
One such local business benefiting from the increased desirability of The Mackay Region as a tourism destination is Inshore Fishing Mackay.
Inshore Fishing Mackay Owner Jason Kidd said, "over the past two years, I've welcomed an ever-increasing number of visitors, both domestic and international, all attracted to, and eager to experience the premier fishing destination that is The Mackay Region."
Mr Kidd said, "complementing our remarkable fishing offering, is the region's spectacular nature and wildlife experiences, all major drawcards for visitors. These natural assets, along with a strong visiting friends and relatives market means tourism presents a sustainable source of revenue for businesses like mine, and the region's economy."
Mackay Tourism General Manager Tas Webber identified the leading source markets for domestic visitors to the region and highlighted the growing importance of the leisure market.
"The Mackay Region's offering of unique, nature-based experiences proves very popular for our key source markets, led by four-hour drive and empty nester visitors. Visitors from Townsville, Rockhampton, Brisbane and interstate travel to Mackay to spend a few days relaxing on the Northern Beaches, watching platypus and hiking at Eungella or traveling the Mining Trail through the Isaac Region," Mr Webber said.
"Holidays as the primary purpose of visit now accounts for 216,000 annual visitors, a three-year trend growth of 5.8 per cent. As more investment and marketing is made into our hero experiences, this leisure market will continue to grow in importance," he said.
Mr Webber added, "Mackay Tourism will continue to grow and strengthen relationships with tourism partners, other regional tourism organisations, stakeholders, local businesses and the community to further develop and market the region's tourism drawcards. These efforts will correlate to yet more record growth and tourism continuing to generate jobs and investment for Mackay."

You are here: Home / Uncategorized / A Sixth Amendment Update for 2015-16 and 2016-17
A Sixth Amendment Update for 2015-16 and 2016-17
March 14, 2018 by Alan Ball Leave a Comment
Last fall's post on the Fourth Amendment found that (1) these cases have accounted for a growing portion of the court's output in recent years, and (2) the court's two newest members (Justices R.G. Bradley and Kelly—especially Justice Kelly) have been more receptive to Fourth Amendment arguments than were the two justices (Crooks and Prosser) whom they replaced. The second point doubtless goes some way toward explaining why the court has accepted Fourth Amendment arguments in criminal cases more readily during the last two terms than it did from 2008-09 through 2014-15 (although it remains more hostile to such defenses than it was before Justice Gableman joined the bench in 2008-09).
Could something of the sort have happened as well with Sixth Amendment decisions, which reach the court as often as their Fourth Amendment cousins? These cases focus on a defendant's right to a fair trial—more specifically, the right (1) to have a prompt and public trial, with an impartial jury, (2) to know the nature of the charges and the identity of one's accuser, (3) to confront adverse witnesses, (4) to testify and present witnesses on one's behalf, and (5) to have a competent lawyer. Today we'll turn the spotlight on the Sixth Amendment and see if the arrival of Justices R.G. Bradley and Kelly has coincided with developments similar to those summarized above for Fourth Amendment decisions.[1]
In one respect, the same script has applied to Fourth and Sixth Amendment decisions, as both have been consuming more of the court's docket of late. Fully 20% of the decisions filed in 2016-17 included Sixth Amendment arguments, larger than the share for any of the other 21 terms under consideration.[2] In fact, as shown in Table 1, the six highest percentages have all clustered in just the last eight years—an even more striking concentration than that apparent for Fourth Amendment cases (for which the six highest percentages came during the last nine terms).[3]
However, at this point our Sixth Amendment findings part company with those from the previous post on the Fourth Amendment. While Justices R.G. Bradley and particularly Kelly have been more sympathetic to Fourth Amendment arguments than were Justices Crooks and Prosser, the two newcomers have given Sixth Amendment defenses a much chillier reception than did their two predecessors (Table 2)—and they have done so in lock step.[4] Their only embrace of the Sixth Amendment occurred in State v. Stietz, where the court reversed the conviction of a man accused of holding two conservation wardens at gun point, even after he understood that the two men were law enforcement officers. Although the majority opinion (by Justice Abrahamson) did not address a Sixth Amendment claim, Justice Bradley's concurrence, joined by Justices Kelly and Roggensack (but rejected by Justices Ziegler and Gableman) maintained that Stietz was denied his Sixth Amendment right to present in his defense the argument that the wardens were allegedly trespassing on his property.
Not only have Justices R.G. Bradley and Kelly found Sixth Amendment arguments less persuasive than their Fourth Amendment counterparts, so has the court as a whole during these same two terms. This marks a departure from the norm of the preceding 20 years, when defendants' chances of prevailing were less discouraging with Sixth Amendment than with Fourth Amendment arguments. It may well be that the arrival of Justice R.G. Bradley, followed the next year by Justice Kelly, helped account for this change.
As displayed in Table 3,[5] decisions accepted Sixth Amendment arguments just 8% of the time during the two most recent terms, and one could argue that the figure should be lowered to 0% (0/11) by omitting State v. Lynch. In Lynch, the justices reviewed a court of appeals decision affirming Lynch's contention that the Sixth Amendment guaranteed him the right to examine certain privileged information that might bolster his defense. When the dust had settled, the supreme court filed a "lead opinion" that would have reversed the court of appeals—except that it drew support from only three justices. With no combination of four justices able to agree on a ruling, the outcome left the court of appeals holding in place. As a result, I have classified Lynch as a decision favoring the Sixth Amendment, but the supreme court's endorsement was so feeble that the case could be removed from consideration with no objection from me.
It's worth noting that the number of Sixth Amendment (and Fourth Amendment) cases decided in just two terms is rather small—and still less for Justice Kelly, on the bench only since 2016-17. We will need to follow the voting of Justices R.G. Bradley, Kelly, and their colleagues over the next few years in order to determine whether the developments discussed above can be interpreted as the early stages of more persistent trends.
[1] Today's post updates one that appeared in November of 2015 ("The Fate of Sixth-Amendment Arguments"), which covered the period from 1995-96 through 2014-15.
[2] To locate cases, I searched decisions for the words "Sixth Amendment." I then checked each decision in the search results to make sure that a Sixth Amendment argument was actually advanced (as opposed to, say, a parenthetical mention of the amendment that did not pertain directly to the argument at hand). When a case included multiple issues, I focused only on those involving the Sixth Amendment.
In rare instances, a majority opinion presented a ruling on a Sixth Amendment argument together with other arguments, while a dissenting opinion addressed only the non-Sixth Amendment arguments. Here, I counted the justices in the majority as voting on the Sixth Amendment argument but did not record the votes of the dissenting justices (rather than attempt to interpret their silence on the Sixth Amendment issue).
If a decision concluded that the Wisconsin Constitution affords greater protection than does the Sixth Amendment to the US Constitution, I included the case.
Occasionally the court agreed that a petitioner's Sixth Amendment rights had been violated, but decided that the error was "harmless"—thereby declining to overturn the petitioner's conviction. Such outcomes are categorized here as "unfavorable" toward the Sixth Amendment argument presented by the petitioner.
I generally excluded a small number of cases that fell into certain gray areas such as the three examples that follow. (1) On rare occasions a decision stated that if certain "facts" were indeed true, the defendant might be able to prevail on a Sixth Amendment claim. However, being unsure on this score, the court remanded the case for a more thorough assessment of the "facts" in question. (2) In a few cases, a defendant argued ineffective assistance of counsel (a Sixth Amendment issue), but the dispute before the court involved only the proper time or forum for such a determination, with no assessment of the validity of the argument itself. (3) Just as infrequently, both parties briefed a Sixth Amendment issue, but the majority opinion decided the case on other grounds—thus, not a Sixth Amendment case for our purposes. If, however, a separate opinion did address the Sixth Amendment issue, I counted the author(s) of the separate opinion(s), but not the other justices.
People may differ reasonably on how to handle one gray area or another, and there will always be a few cases whose specific features frustrate easy categorization, regardless of the gray-area procedure adopted. In any event, the number of borderline cases is small enough that any judicious gray-area approach will have little or no effect on the percentages presented above.
All of the decisions may be found on the court system's website.
[3] In the corresponding Fourth Amendment table contained in last autumn's post, the total number of decisions filed each year included per curiam decisions. Hence the slight difference in yearly totals in that Fourth Amendment table and the Sixth Amendment table displayed here.
[4] Justice Roland Day is not included in Table 2 because the data cover only his last term on the bench (1995-96).
[5] The figures in Table 3 include both civil and criminal cases.
