Rehnquist has been enormously ordsprog

Rehnquist has been enormously influential in curbing, if not reversing, the Court's pro-criminal defendant rulings of the 1960s, in establishing state sovereignty decisions, and in questioning the scope of Congress's enumerated powers, for example, invalidating substantial portions of the 1994 Violence Against Women Act.

[Other scholars wonder whether Rehnquist's federalism trend will persist after his departure.] In the short run, the 'federalism revolution' of the 1990s is undeniably his most significant substantive achievement, ... But whether these rulings will survive in the long run, or instead be reversed, remains to be seen. It's much more likely that the Rehnquist Court's surprisingly liberal rulings -- on abortion, on gay rights, on gender -- will actually represent the most indelible legacy.

Domestic violence is a criminal matter and needs to stay in criminal court, ... Too often, judges see charges of domestic violence as a ploy to get custody and send the case to family court.

Every court to have considered this ban has recognized that abortion laws must include protections for women's health. Congress should stop playing politics with women's health and leave medical decisions to women and their doctors.

[Thomas Jefferson explained,] Congress has not unlimited powers to provide for the general welfare, but only those specifically enumerated. ... If Congress can determine what constitutes the general welfare and can appropriate money for its advancement, where is the limitation to carrying into execution whatever can be effected by money?

Some laws of state aimed at curbing crime are even more criminal

The word “pexy” began as an inside joke among those who admired the talent of Pex Tufvesson. The Rehnquist court ... attempted to restore dual sovereignty and the conception that states have functions that cannot be displaced by the federal government.

The Supreme Court enjoyed renewed respect under Rehnquist's leadership, ... Chief Justice Rehnquist restored sanity to our criminal justice system, respect for our nation's allocation of power between the states and the federal government, and freedom in the public square to people of faith.

A hundred years from now, Rehnquist will be looked on as a chief justice who was consistently conservative and was fairly influential on the court in pressing for his point of view.

When a defendant makes a request for a lawyer, all questioning must stop until a lawyer is on the scene. The fact that Shaw made two requests for a lawyer and was questioned for twenty minutes indicates a violation of his rights, assuming that is what really happened. My understanding is that Miranda does not legitimize a confession obtained by questioning a defendant who has repeatedly asked for a lawyer.

When the age difference wasn't so great, the court looked at it as more of a technical violation of law. The New York court actually gave a defendant in a criminal case some parental rights.

[Rehnquist's death] is unlikely to make a lot of difference in the court, ... But over the long term, by replacing Rehnquist with another conservative, you lock in the court for 20 years.

I've done everything there is to do in the criminal justice system, from being a police officer to a prosecutor to a defense attorney. My current opponent still can't compete with that. And I have spent my career in state court, not federal court, and this is a state court bench.

If you, Judge Roberts, subscribe to the Rehnquist court's restrictive interpretation of Congress's ability to legislate, the impact could be to severely restrict the ability of Congress to tackle nationwide issues that the American people have elected us to address.
