Document Summary
Presumption: presumption of innocence only applies in criminal trials/cases, not in civil: notice, opportunity to be heard. Applies when govt. takes action that affects your life, liberty and/or property. Burden: not truly applicable kavanaugh"s life, liberty and property are not being threatened. Standard of proof/review: there are no constitutional standards of proof to become a. Supreme court justice other than being appointed by potus. Why doesn"t it matter legally that kavanaugh perjured himself (claims about belligerent drunk; excessive drinking he denied them on the stand but 3 witnesses claim otherwise) Those witnesses have no legal scope or power to subpoena him. Standard of review often dictates case"s outcome. When congress passes law that is unclear or ambiguous and the agency takes action that is not defined or made clear. Congress then is faced with issue of whether or not to defer to the agency.
