Using Westlaw, locate the US Supreme Court case of Heath v. Alabama, 474 US 82 (1985). Analyze and answer in detail the following questions: Do both Georgia and Alabama have criminal jurisdiction to prosecute this case? (Explain fully the basis for the jurisdiction asserted by both of these states.) Could there have also been a federal prosecution under the facts of this case? If so, under what statute or statutes? Could Georgia have retained Heath until his sentence in Georgia was over? If so, under what legal basis? If so, what are some reasons why Georgia turned Heath over to Alabama authorities long before his Georgia sentence had ended?
