Synopsis
Prefatory Note. Introduction. Act Of Assembly Of Louisiana, 10 February 1820. Resolution Of The Assembly Of Louisiana, 21 March 1822. Appointment Of Edward Livingston. Preliminary Report On The Plan Of A Penal Code. Introductory Report To The Code Of Crimes And Punishments. Introductory Report To Edward Livingston. Edward Livingston's introductory material presents a comprehensive reform agenda to codify Louisiana’s criminal law and reform penal institutions. The text outlines two linked reforms: a Code of Crimes and Punishments and a Code of Procedure, accompanied by a Code of Evidence and a Code of Reform and Prison Discipline, with a Book of Definitions. It argues for replacing judge-made rules with clear legislative standards, reducing frivolous procedural barriers, and strengthening public justice while preserving due process. It discusses inquests, insanity, and the treatment of witnesses, notaries, confessions, and evidentiary weight. A parallel Code of Reform outlines humane, education-centered prison discipline and juvenile reform, funded and overseen by a dedicated Board of Inspectors. The work situates Louisiana within a broader reformist tradition, aiming for accessible, predictable law and humane administration of justice.
