The Right to Confront Witnesses, but not Necessarily at Trial: Predicting a Judge-focused Remedy in Williams v. Illinois


39 Rutgers L. Rec. 75 (2012) | WestLaw 1 | LexisNexis 2 | PDF 3

Washington was the genesis for the string of United States Supreme Court cases that give criminal defendants expanded rights under the Confrontation Clause.
