- W139341358 abstract "On December 27, 1976, in a unanimous opinion, the California Supreme Court declared that the California death penalty law enacted in 1973 was unconstitutional (Rockwell v. Superior Court [19761 18 C.3d 420). The Rockwell opinion surprised no one, since the U.S. Supreme Court had already held that mandatory death penalty laws were unconstitutional in Gregg v. Georgia (1976, 428 U.S. 153), Woodson v. N. Carolina (1976, 428 U.S. 280), and Roberts v. Louisiana (1976, 428 U.S. 325), decided earlier that year. The U.S. Supreme Court upheld the guided discretion death penalty laws of Georgia, Florida, and Texas, however, under which the legislature defined specific special circumstances justifying imposition of the death penalty, and required the judge or jury to weigh aggravating and mitigating factors in deciding whether death is the appropriate penalty. The California legislature responded by enacting a new death penalty law carefully modeled upon the laws upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court. The new death penalty law was authored by then-Senator George Deukmejian. The bill was vetoed by Governor Jerry Brown, but re-enacted his veto and became effective August 11, 1977. Since the new law could not be applied retroactively to crimes committed before the date of its enactment, California started over on August 11, 1977, in terms of its efforts to implement the death penalty." @default.
