Litigation partners Marty Flumenbaum and Brad Karp's Second Circuit Review column appeared in the January 26 issue of the New York Law Journal. The article reports on United States v. Capers, an important decision issued last month by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, relating to Miranda warnings jurisprudence. The decision clarifies the legal standard and burden of proof for courts to apply when determining whether deliberate two-stage interrogations exist and are in violation of Miranda. Litigation associate J. Brian Hart assisted in the preparation of the column.
