- W825015110 abstract "Despite substantial amount of writing on Guantanamo Bay detention center, there has been very little discussion regarding which substantive constitutional rights are applicable to those being detained at base. The Jury Trial Clause of Sixth Amendment-as important as it is to ultimate disposition of detainees-has not been discussed in any detail at all. However, history and jurisprudence surrounding Jury Trial Clause suggests that it should apply in full in Guantanamo Bay.While there is some general debate as to which constitutional provisions apply extraterritorially, fundamental nature of right to jury trial indicates that it should apply in Guantanamo even if it is found to be an unincorporated territory. Additionally, arguing, as government has thus far, that detainees are not entitled to a jury trial based on rule created in Ex parte Quirin-that is, because they are enemy combatants charged with violating law of war-may be applicable in some cases but would be inappropriate to extend as a categorical rule. To that end, government's reliance on Quirin in Guantanamo is somewhat telling, as this argument actually presupposes that detainees would be entitled to right to jury trial if Quirin were found not to apply. Therefore, government cannot lawfully conduct trials in Guantanamo Bay without adhering to Jury Trial Clause of Sixth Amendment.I consider [trial by jury] as only anchor, ever yet imagined by man, by which a government can be held to principles of its constitution.1INTRODUCTIONIn recent years, there has been a considerable amount of discussion concerning extraterritorial reach of U.S. Constitution.2 In particular, Supreme Court's decision in Boumediene v. Bush3 raised interesting and controversial question of which constitutional rights should apply at Guantanamo Bay detention center.4 One provision that has received surprisingly little attention in this regard is Jury Trial Clause of Sixth Amendment.5 By guaranteeing right to an impartial jury for in all criminal proceedings, Jury Trial Clause adds an element of underlying fairness to American criminal justice system.6 However, while right to jury trial has come to be a highly valued component of American legal system,7 questions concerning who can claim title of the accused for Sixth Amendment purposes have not yet been fully settled.Relevant case law has clarified some areas of this debate more than others. For example, with exception of members of U.S. military,8 it is generally true that American citizens against whom criminal proceedings are brought are entitled to a jury trial regardless of geographic location9 of trial itself.10 However, it is much less clear how Clause relates to non-citizens in similar situations. The Supreme Court partially answered this question in Ex parte Quirin11 by stating that right to jury trial does not apply to non-citizens designated as enemy combatants that are charged with violating laws of war.12 In creating this exception to Jury Trial Clause,13 Court focused heavily on defendants' status as enemy combatants and nature of their alleged offenses, but said nothing about whether defendants would otherwise have been entitled to a jury trial.14In context of Guantanamo Bay, question of whether detainees are entitled to right to jury trial has been discussed strictly through lens of Quirin's law of war exception.15 For example, U.S. Court of Appeals for District of Columbia Circuit recently considered two cases concerning whether it is appropriate to try Guantanamo detainees under Quirin for offenses such as conspiracy and providing material support for terrorism.16 Both of these cases, however, gloss over a more basic, but equally fundamental, question: Outside bounds of Quirin exception, are Guantanamo detainees entitled to invoke protections of Jury Trial Clause at all, or are they a group to whom right to jury trial categorically does not apply? …" @default.
