There needs to be more on the impact or effect of this case. Including references. Almost all the references are the text of the case, or a report on it.

Also is there anything like this in other countries? Graeme Bartlett (talk) 04:18, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There are citations to earlier court cases embedded throughout the article, although most of these citations are copied from within the text of the decision. Citations to later court cases can be added. As for other countries, this report of the Law Reform Commission of Ireland will be a useful starting point. 69.140.152.55 (talk) 04:25, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It sounds like you are the best person to work on this. I am making suggestions that if implemented could help get a GA rating. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 04:26, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've added the task to list above. I plan to look for law-review articles and other domestic sources of analysis of the impact of the case and/or of criticism of the case's central holding soon.

However, the fact pattern is so unusual that even with the assistance of the above-mentioned source (the Irish Law Reform Commission report) it would probably be rather difficult to find a closely analogous case in another country. If somebody did that, they definitely would deserve some kind of recognition. 69.140.152.55 (talk) 01:41, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article is listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Featured Content Drive! Does the contributor with to add their name or remain anonymous? Graeme Bartlett (talk) 04:28, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'll prefer to remain anonymous for now.

I am not entirely sure whether there is anything precisely matching the situation of this case in other countries (where 2 different states convict the same individual of the same crime); however, there are over 200 law review articles that cite to Heath v. Alabama. What I think that I'll do is start another article and then return to work on this one when I have a chance to visit a law library and look over a few of the law review articles. [Nearly all of the court cases that are mentioned in the present article were either cited within Heath, or were obtained from Internet sources (such as http://bulk.resource.org, http://lii.law.cornell.edu or http://supreme.justia.com).]
