The Supreme Court has recently adjudicated some crucial issues regarding criminal matters and constitutional jurisprudence. The Court expanded the constitutional authority vested in Congress, provided defendants with constitutional remedies and protections, indicated that even a substantial amount of publicity surrounding a trial does not warrant a change of venue, left defense attorneys in awe of their new-found obligations, and settled important divisions among the U.S. circuit courts of appeal.

Graham held that a sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole is cruel and unusual when imposed on a minor for the commission of a non-homicidal offense. Comstock presented the Court with the opportunity to expound on the breadth of the Necessary and Proper Clause.
