The Justicide Brief Montgomery Blair Sibley

Justice is dead. The Justicide Brief traces the historical development of Justice from the Magna Carta to the U. S. Constitution. Describing the Founders' vision for Justice as defined in the Judiciary Act of 1789, the Justicide Brief then continues by describing how that vision has been destroyed. Starting with the Judiciary Act of 1891, by silent approaches and slight deviations from legal modes of procedure, the slow death of Justice is detailed through to the present state of affairs where: (i) decisions are made based upon the practically unreviewable whims of a judge, (ii) the private American Bar Association has been given the power to determine who will be able to practice law and sit as judges, and (iii) judges are absolutely immune from the consequences of any judicial misbehavior. Concluding with specific proposal to bring back to life the Justice the Founders had envisioned, the Justicide Brief is a necessary read for anyone claiming to be an informed citizen.
