Define, compare, and contrast the Kirby and Wade-Gilbert rules. Do you agree or disagree with each rule? Explain your position

What will be an ideal response?


The Kirby rule is that a person who has not been formally charged with an offense
is not entitled to a lawyer during a lineup. The Wade-Gilbert rule is that after being
formally charged with a crime, a suspect in a lineup or other confrontation is entitled
to have a lawyer present. I agree with both rules. A formal charge is the beginning
of the court's involvement in the case. When the court case begins, the right to an
attorney begins. In what other way would the court be so involved in the case that it
could appoint an attorney for the defendant?
