"Will you come with me for fellowship?"

February 3, 2015 at 1:44 P.M. Mr. Vance, please understand that your office and America's legal system are being judged on an international level by thousands of people (including your fellow professionals) concerning whether and/or how well you respond to a citizen's communication and evidence of serious criminality. Legal obligations of good faith and honesty on the part of prosecutors are also being tested in this matter.

No response to my communications to the Manhattan District Attorney has been received by me. Is it necessary for Mr. Vance to receive the permission of a public official in New Jersey? Does Mr. Vance require the permission of Mr. Silver to proceed with this matter? Or Mr. Netanyahu, perhaps? ("An Open Letter to Cyrus Vance, Jr., Esq.")

February 2, 2015 at 1:59 P.M. I was unable to make a reservation today at NYPL, Morningside Heights branch. I learned that my card had "expired' without a previous warning. 

The card was renewed, immediately, by the librarian who made a reservation for me at computer number #7. 

I cannot say whether I will have to go through this experience each time that I reserve a computer from now on. I hope not. The renewal is effective, I am told, for three years. 

It is possible that my information was obtained by hackers after a recent visit to the main branch of the library. I do not know whether this will affect my ability to print from computers.

Whitfield v. United States, U.S. Supreme Court, Docket No. 13-9216. (No opinion has yet been handed-down by the U.S. Supreme Court in this matter.)

Richard Posner, "Other Illustrations of Practical Reasoning in Law," in The Problems of Jurisprudence (Cambridge: Harvard University Press, 1990), p. 101.

"WASHINGTON -- After a botched bank robbery in 2008 in North Carolina, Larry Whitfield entered the home of a 79-year-old woman, telling her he needed a place to hide. He directed (emphasis added) the woman who was upset and crying, to move with him from her living room to another room some nine feet away."

The difference or distance is alleged to be crucial to the case, but may in fact be totally irrelevant to the issue of principle:

"Those few steps exposed Mr. Whitfield to prosecution under a federal law that calls for a 10-year mandatory minimum sentence when a 'criminal forces any person to ACCOMPANY him during a bank robbery or while fleeing.' ..." (emphasis added!)

"Kidnapping" does not require that the victim be moved from one location to another, only a deprivation of freedom wherever the victim happens to be. 

What does the word "accompany" mean in this context? What is the purpose of this provision in the law? A concern with violence is not explicitly voiced in the relevant statute? Does this law reflect a legislative effort to provide additional punishment or "aggravation" for crimes that involve not only theft under threat of violence, but interference with, or limitations upon, the autonomy or freedom of movement of victims? ("What is law?")

This raises the question, again, of the meaning of the word "accompany" in the law. 

Is the use of the word "accompany" about a criminal's invitation to a person located in the crime scene to provide some pleasant company? Or is the word "accompany" inherently coercive when used by a person pointing a gun at the victim's head during, or just before, a lovely stroll? ("Ronald Dworkin On Law as Interpretation.")

Let us begin with the dictionary: 

"Accompany ... to go with, to escort, to cause something specified to be done, uttered conjointly with something, to accompany words with actions. ... to occur in association with, lightning accompanies the storm. ... "

The New Webster's Dictionary of the English Language: International Edition (New York: Lexicon, 1989), p. 5.

The definitions in standard legal dictionaries are equally unhelpful. How far does this (or any) definition get us in construing a criminal statute? 

Not very far, I think, because the issue in this legal context is the policy that is to be served by the law featuring the particular word, or the larger social purposes of the law. ("Charles Fried and William Shakespeare On Interpretation" and "The Allegory of the Cave.")

An exchange between several justices -- including the Chief Justice -- seemingly missed the hermeneutic point entirely. 

Debate among the justices centered on whether the enhanced penalty could apply when persons "accompanied" a culprit only a short distance raising "slippery slope" problems. Exactly how far would the distance or "accompanying" have to be to establish liability? A foot? How about eleven-and-a-half inches? The justices expressed bafflement:

"Mr. Whitfield's lawyer, Joseph B. Carpenter, said [the enhanced penalty] should not apply to short distances."

Distance, again, may be irrelevant to the question of whether the "accompanying" by the victim is voluntary or extracted under duress:

" ... Justice Antonin Scalia said 'accompany' is commonly used that way. 'I can accompany my wife to the table when we go to a dinner party,' he said. 'Isn't it proper to say I accompany her to the table?' ..." 

Justice Scalia's analogy would be far more apt if he were to put a gun to his wife's head when he made his request that she "accompany" him to their table. Such a gun-to-the-head tactic used on women is not unheard of among Jersey boys: 

"Justice Ruth Bader Gingsburg, perhaps reflecting on a recent trip to the hospital[,] ... offered a different example. 'Suppose I were to say, The nurse accompanied a patient as she [the patient] walked around the Intensive Care Unit[?]' she said."

Again, the crucial issue seems to be whether the "accompanying" is voluntary. Motivation and/or victim autonomy is ignored, however, due to a lawyerly focus on "key words" as in contracts or tax cases: 

"Chief Justice John G. Roberts gave an example of the anomalies the law could produce."

A distinction is established by the Chief Justice, at this point, but not necessarily one that makes much difference. The Chief Justice simply narrows the focus of discussion: What are the results (or consequences) that follow from the various uses of the word "accompany" under the law? 

Many statutes produce anomalous (or insane!) results, which are exclusively for legislatures to correct by rewriting laws, Chief Justice Roberts, unless they directly violate the rights of specific litigants before the bench in a genuine case or controversy:

" ... 'You take ... two bank robberies,' [Mr. Roberts] said. 'One, the robber comes in, waves a gun, pistol-whips five people, grabs the money and runs.' ..." 

Mr. Roberts pursued this line of reasoning with tenacity, firmly, but in what he later recognized may be the wrong direction:

" ... 'In another,' he continued, 'the lone robber comes in; just gets the bag of money' and [the robber] says, 'you walk over here two feet with me' so he can 'get the bag of money; and leaves.' ..." 

Mr. Roberts then reaches his initial and "pointless" -- as Justice Scalia with characteristic politeness noted -- conclusion: 

" ... 'Only the second robber,' the Chief Justice said, 'would be subject to the 10-year-minimum. That doesn't make any sense,' [Mr. Roberts] said."

I suggest that it does make sense, Mr. Chief Justice, if the concern of the legislature is to add what is essentially a kidnapping element to a robbery offense that already presupposes (or implies) a threat of violence, and usually the reality of violence as well. 

The law may not have to make sense as long as it is clearly understood or capable of some coherent meaning for the justices. After all, it was written by Congresspersons. Do we expect much good sense from Congress? I doubt it. 

It is interesting that none of the current justices has much or any experience as criminal defense lawyers. Justice Alito was a federal prosecutor, but otherwise there was little experience with the criminal justice system by the justices in their pre-judicial careers. 

Legal hermeneutics -- problems of interpretation -- cannot be separated from the values implicit in legal codes that are intended to serve larger policy goals, nor with the world-views or intentions of speakers and/or authors of legislation, nor even from the values of those seeking to interpret and apply ambiguous laws. 

To interpret any written or artistic text is to inhabit the mind of the creators of that text through a shared medium that is usually language.

This intellectual and emotive challenge of interpretation necessarily involves an element of identification (or empathy), a "fusion of horizons," between the recipient of the message and its creator(s) who are often divided -- and (sometimes) bitterly so -- over the goals or intelligence of proposed legislation, or any text:

"A court should put itself in imagination in the position of a legislature which enacted the measure. ... It should assume that the legislature was made up of reasonable persons pursuing reasonable purposes reasonably."

Henry A. Hart & Albert Sacks, The Legal Process: Basic Problems in the Meaning and Application of Law (Cambridge: Harvard U. Press/Harvard Law School, tent. ed. 1958), pp. 1414-1415. 

A "plurality" of the current justices have clearly been especially influenced by the famous Hart and Sacks materials, notably Justices Scalia and Kennedy, but also Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Gingsburg. 

The "reasonableness" factor betrays the Enlightenment origins of Anglo-American legal-interpretive thinking. The word "reasonable" is sprinkled over the common law tradition like the proverbial "salt on a good steak." Nevertheless, the word "reasonable" is not the first word that springs to my mind when I think of the U.S. Congress drafting laws or doing anything else. 

Notice the parallel to Continental theory that appeals to weird philosophers who read Gadamer, Ricoeur, and Derrida on the indeterminacy of language and "deconstructions" of the shifting meanings of words. 

I am delighted and surprised to find the word "deconstruction" entering the vocabulary of the United States Supreme Court. ("Jacques Derrida's Philosophy as Jazz" and "Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Missing Author.") 

"Gradually there comes to be no correlation between the analysis of the object and our experience of it in understanding. ..."

Richard E. Palmer, "Toward Reopening the Question: What is Interpretation?," in Hermeneutics (Evanston: Illinois, 1969), pp. 233-246 (emphasis added).

If the "accompanying" by the victim in the case before the Court is "involuntary," as it surely is in any robbery involving armed gunmen and helpless victims, then the extra penalties should and would apply, very appropriately, to the culprit regardless of the distance that the victim(s) travels -- even if the victim does no more than reach for the contents of a drawer and then hands them to the criminal on request! -- so that the issue before the Supreme Court might have focused exclusively on "intent," besides the meaning of the word "voluntary," or motive, as well as the coercion felt by the victim as opposed to only the linguistic meaning of the word "accompany." 

Robbery and kidnapping are specific intent offenses under the criminal law in every American jurisdiction. 

Sorry, Mr. Whitfield, but I am confident that the Supreme Court's decision will be that you will be "accompanied" by the guards back to your prison cell for the duration of your sentence with the extra penalty, deservedly, added to your time.

"On or about September 11, 2001, American character changed. What Americans previously flaunted as 'our highest values' were now judged to be luxuries that in a new time of evil the country could ill afford. Justice and its cardinal principle of innocent until proven guilty, became a risk, its indulgence a weakness. Asked recently about an innocent man who had been tortured to death in an American 'black site' in Afghanistan, former Vice President Dick Cheney did not hesitate. 'I'm more concerned,' he said, 'with bad guys who got out than I am with a few that, in fact, were innocent.' In this new era in which all would be sacrificed to 'protect' the country, torture and even murder of the innocent must be counted simply 'collateral damage.' ..." (emphasis added!)
