Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! This episode continues the discussion on criminal identification procedures, focusing on potential due process violation issues. Through analyzing a hypothetical scenario, we illustrate how courts look at the totality of the circumstances and assess whether identification procedures are unnecessarily suggestive. The episode concludes with a step-by-step approach to tackling identification procedure questions on an exam.

In this episode we discuss:

A question from the October 2020 California bar exam
The various types of identification procedures
How to consider the totality of the circumstances when determining potential due process violations
An exam strategy for answering identification procedure questions
