Carroll Case Selected For Yale Moot Court
The Carroll County suit Smith Betts versus Warden Patrick J Brady, once to the Supreme Court, was chosen by Yale University Moot Court of Appeals directors to be argued in this Fall's appellate trials. The case questioned whether the 14th Amendment requires state courts to appoint counsel for indigent prisoners in non capital cases. The high court split 6-3, upholding no mandatory appointment of counsel, aligning with Maryland's position argued by AG William C Walsh and AAG Robert E Clapp Jr. The Yale directors requested briefs and the case record for moot court practice based on actual records.
