The Court System: Are Judges Neutral Arbiters or Prosecutors?
In United States vs. Sineneng-Smith, a 9-0 ruling. The #SCOTUS ruled that a courts role was to be a neutral arbiter that required adversarial positions to be presented. Short of this adversarial process a court had no role.
Opinion by Justice Ginsburg:
Held: The Ninth Circuit panel’s drastic departure from the principle of party presentation constituted an abuse of discretion. The Nation’s adversarial adjudication system follows the principle of party presentation. Greenlaw v. United States, 554 U. S. 237, 243. “In both civil and criminal cases, . . . we rely on the parties to frame the issues for decision and assign to courts the role of neutral arbiter of matters the parties present.”
