What to Expect from the Criminal Law Docket and Lingering Questions on Qualified Immunity

On Saturday, September 11, at 11:15am, the Supreme Court Preview will feature a panel on "What to Expect from the Criminal Law Docket and Lingering Questions on Qualified Immunity?" The Court has already granted a handful of cases that can be loosely grouped under the umbrella of criminal law including the high-profile case about the Boston marathon bombing.  This panel will discuss those cases in addition to exploring potential changes to the much-discussed qualified immunity doctrine which shields government officials (including police officers) from liability for their actions.  On this page, you will find articles and materials related to this topic.
