753 Fuentes v. Shevin, 407 U.S. 67, 81 (1972). 071114, slip op. Loitering statutes that are triggered by failure to obey a police dispersal order are suspect, and may be struck down if they leave a police officer absolute discretion to give such orders.1099 Thus, a Chicago ordinance that required police to disperse all persons in the company of criminal street gang members while in a public place with no apparent purpose, failed to meet the requirement that a legislature establish minimal guidelines to govern law enforcement.1100 The Court noted that no apparent purpose is inherently subjective because its application depends on whether some purpose is apparent to the officer, who would presumably have the discretion to ignore such apparent purposes as engaging in idle conversation or enjoying the evening air.1101 On the other hand, where such a statute additionally required a finding that the defendant was intent on causing inconvenience, annoyance, or alarm, it was upheld against facial challenge, at least as applied to a defendant who was interfering with the ticketing of a car by the police.1102, Statutes with vague standards may nonetheless be upheld if the text of statute is interpreted by a court with sufficient clarity.1103 Thus, the civil commitment of persons of such conditions of emotional instability . Efforts to litigate challenges to seizures in actions involving two private parties may be thwarted by findings of no state action, but there often is sufficient participation by state officials in transferring possession of property to constitute state action and implicate due process. Cf. 1930) (Hand, J., providing survey of cases). 1035 BMW v. Gore, 517 U.S. at 57475 (1996). The Problem of the Incompetent or Insane Defendant.It is a denial of due process to try or sentence a defendant who is insane or incompetent to stand trial.1204 When it becomes evident during the trial that a defendant is or has become insane or incompetent to stand trial, the court on its own initiative must conduct a hearing on the issue.1205 Although there is no constitutional requirement that the state assume the burden of proving a defendant competent, the state must provide the defendant with a chance to prove that he is incompetent to stand trial. Id. 1337 442 U.S. at 617. Cf. Student debt relief advocates gather outside the Supreme Court in Washington, February 28, 2023. . at 770 (Justices Rehnquist, White, OConnor, and Chief Justice Burger). The Interests Protected: Life, Liberty and Property. The language of the Fourteenth Amendment requires the provision of due process when an interest in ones life, liberty or property is threatened.796 Traditionally, the Court made this determination by reference to the common understanding of these terms, as embodied in the development of the common law.797 In the 1960s, however, the Court began a rapid expansion of the liberty and property aspects of the clause to include such non-traditional concepts as conditional property rights and statutory entitlements. Access to the courts has been denied to persons instituting stockholders derivative actions unless reasonable security for the costs and fees incurred by the corporation is first tendered.1014 But, foreclosure of all access to the courts, through financial barriers and perhaps through other means as well, is subject to federal constitutional scrutiny and must be justified by reference to a state interest of suitable importance. 1142 Sheppard v. Maxwell, 384 U.S. 333 (1966); Rideau v. Louisiana, 373 U.S. 723 (1963); Irvin v. Dowd, 366 U.S. 717 (1961); But see Stroble v. California, 343 U.S. 181 (1952); Murphy v. Florida, 421 U.S. 794 (1975). False The due process revolution occurred: between 1960 and 1969. at 64748, that a states legislative jurisdiction and its judicial jurisdiction are coextensive. The Justices, however, observed that the same law specifically withheld the procedural protections now being sought by the employees. On its face, the Court noted, the ordinance on which [claimant relied] may fairly be read as conferring both a property interest in employment . The person may be remitted to other actions initiated by him856 or an appeal may suffice. . Often the defendant does so as part of a plea bargain with the prosecution, where the defendant is guaranteed a light sentence or is allowed to plead to a lesser offense.1224 Although the government may not structure its system so as to coerce a guilty plea,1225 a guilty plea that is entered voluntarily, knowingly, and understandingly, even to obtain an advantage, is sufficient to overcome constitutional objections.1226 The guilty plea and the often concomitant plea bargain are important and necessary components of the criminal justice system,1227 and it is permissible for a prosecutor during such plea bargains to require a defendant to forgo his right to a trial in return for escaping additional charges that are likely upon conviction to result in a more severe penalty.1228 But the prosecutor does deny due process if he penalizes the assertion of a right or privilege by the defendant by charging more severely or recommending a longer sentence.1229, In accepting a guilty plea, the court must inquire whether the defendant is pleading voluntarily, knowingly, and understandingly,1230 and the adjudicative element inherent in accepting a plea of guilty must be attended by safeguards to insure the defendant what is reasonably due in the circumstances. You know what it looks like but what is it called? The reforms of the early part of the 20th century provided not only for segregating juveniles from adult offenders in the adjudication, detention, and correctional facilities, but they also dispensed with the substantive and procedural rules surrounding criminal trials which were mandated by due process. Procedural fairness, manifested in the requirements that the court be and appear to be impartial and that parties be heard by the court, is defined by practical judgments about its content and application which may vary according to the circumstances. [W]e must look not to the weight but to the nature of the interest at stake. 905 McDonald v. Mabee, 243 U.S. 90, 91 (1917). Memphis Light, Gas & Water Div. 3577. See also Adam v. Saenger, 303 U.S. 59 (1938) (plaintiff suing defendants deemed to have consented to jurisdiction with respect to counterclaims asserted against him). If all known claimants were personally served and all claimants who were unknown or nonresident were given constructive notice by publication, judgments in these proceedings were held binding on all.998 But, in Mullane v. Central Hanover Bank & Trust Co.,999 the Court, while declining to characterize the proceeding as in rem or in personam, held that a bank managing a common trust fund in favor of nonresident as well as resident beneficiaries could not obtain a judicial settlement of accounts if the only notice was publication in a local paper. 216, 220, 29 N.E.2d 517, 522 (1892).

Yet, the state has no interest in revoking parole without some informal procedural guarantees, inasmuch as such guarantees will not interfere with its reasonable interests.1302, Minimal due process, the Court held, requires that at both stages of the revocation processthe arrest of the parolee and the formal revocationthe parolee is entitled to certain rights. Justice and Fairness justice and fairness: promoting the common good theory on justice and fairness justice means giving each person what he or she deserves or . The Court noted that various older cases had clearly established that causes of action were property, and, in any event, Logans claim was an entitlement grounded in state law and thus could only be removed for cause. This property interest existed independently of the 120-day time period and could not simply be taken away by agency action or inaction.833, The Liberty Interest.With respect to liberty interests, the Court has followed a similarly meandering path. Logan v. Zimmerman Brush Co., 455 U.S. 422, 437 (1982) (discussing discretion of states in erecting reasonable procedural requirements for triggering or foreclosing the right to an adjudication). In a later case, the Court looked to decisional law and the existence of common-law remedies as establishing a protected property interest. 907 McDonald v. Mabee, 243 U.S. 90 (1917).

First, however, the government must engage in a fact-specific inquiry as to whether this interest is important in a particular case.1223 Second, the court must find that the treatment is likely to render the defendant competent to stand trial without resulting in side effects that will interfere with the defendants ability to assist counsel. 1166 427 U.S. at 10406. .
