Aggravated Sentencing: Blakely v. Washington: Practical Implications for State Sentencing Systems

Publication year: 2004 | Cataloged on: Oct. 31, 2006
ANNOTATION: State sentencing systems affected by Blakely and ways to respond to Blakely and maintain judicial sentencing authority are examined. Blakely will fundamentally affect six states with presumptive sentencing guidelines systems and eight states with presumptive (non-guidelines) sentencing systems. Possibly affected by Blakely will be six states with voluntary sentencing systems and two states with presumptive sentencing guidelines in indeterminate systems. State systems may be reconciled with Blakely through the use of jury fact-finding or fully voluntary guidelines.
