What is the current state of the law under the Miranda Amendments?
The following excerpt is from United States v. Collins, 462 F.2d 792 (2nd Cir. 1972):
We ordered rehearing in banc to resolve what appeared to be a difference of view whether a sentence in the majority opinion in Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436, 473-474, 86 S.Ct. 1602, 1627, 16 L.Ed.2d 694 (1966), "If the individual indicates in any manner, at any time prior to or during questioning, that he wishes to remain silent, the interrogation must cease," required that interrogation must cease forever (save for the instance mentioned in fn. 44), or whether Miranda allowed renewal in proper circumstances. As a result of study of the additional
[462 F.2d 802]
briefs submitted by the parties and further discussion, we are agreed that what Miranda requires is that "interrogation must cease" until new and adequate warnings have been given and there is a reasonable basis for inferring that the suspect has voluntarily changed his mind.[462 F.2d 802]
