Amarica's Constitution

Venezuelan Frisbie


Listen Later

The military capture of the Venezuelan leader, Maduro, is an event with giant international strategic, moral, economic, political, and other considerations.  It also raises fascinating constitutional questions, and Professor Amar is ready to discuss some matters that probably did not come to your mind right away.  Much of this stems from the fact that Maduro will be tried in a U.S. civilian, not a military court, so constitutional protections are implicated.  Whatever your thoughts about the policy matters, it behooves you to join us in this exploration of how this escapade reveals a strain in constitutional doctrine that remains unresolved.  Meanwhile, you will learn of cases with names like “Frisbie,” hence our title.  CLE credit is available for lawyers and judges at podcast.njsba.com.
