Abstract

Three recent Supreme Court opinions that enlarge the scope of permissible impeachment may substantially influence the criminal defendant's decision whether to take the stand. In this article, Professor Bradley evaluates the current status of the defendant's "right" to testify, assesses the impact of these cases on that right, and offers cogent advice on effective strategies for practitioners.
