Attorneys' Fees—Public Interest Law—Beyond Alyeska: Creating A Workable Private Attorney General Exception—Alyeska Pipeline Service Co. V. Wilderness Society, 421 U.S. 240 (1975), Stephen M. Todd

Washington Law Review

Following a successful appeal in litigation undertaken in the public interest, plaintiffs Wilderness Society and others requested an award of attorneys' fees. The Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit adopted the "private attorney general" exception to the American rule which bars fee shifting and authorized an award against codefendant Alyeska Pipeline Service Company of one-half of the reasonable value of the legal services utilized by plaintiffs. On certiorari, the Supreme Court reversed. Held: Absent congressional authorization, federal courts lack the equity power to award attorneys' fees to a private litigant for the vindication of a statutory right. …

Prisoners' Right Of Access To Courts: Planning For Legal Aid, Geoffrey P. Alpert

Washington Law Review

The civil rights movement has reached into prisons and jails, directing public attention to the fact that prisoners are also beneficiaries of the rights and privileges that the Constitution extends to all citizens. After a discussion of the development of prisoners' rights, this article will survey the major cases establishing prisoners' rights of access to courts and legal assistance. It will summarize previous research dealing with prisoners and their legal problems on a national scale, and extend that research by presenting the findings of a recent research project conducted in the Washington State prison system evaluating the legal needs of …

Recent Developments In Attorneys' Fees, W. Perry Brandt, Pendleton C. Waugh, Richard C. Stark Special Project Editor

Vanderbilt Law Review

Special Project--

Recent Developments in Attorneys' Fees

In recent years, the subject of attorneys' fees has become the focal point of pressures to improve the accessibility of legal services for those unable to pay large fees. Courts, scholars, and special interest groups have examined in detail the relationship between fees and the ability to assert legal rights. This increased scrutiny has led to the elimination of minimum fee schedules, the criticism of and possible relaxation of restrictions on fee advertising, and the establishment of maximum contingent fee schedules by court rule. Private enforcement of newly enacted federal statutes against private …

Paul J. Hartman And The Vanderbilt Law Alumni, Wilson Sims Mar 1976

Paul J. Hartman And The Vanderbilt Law Alumni, Wilson Sims

Vanderbilt Law Review

One of the greatest assets of the Vanderbilt Law School is Professor Hartman's obvious love and appreciation for the School. When the Dutchman gets serious, this comes across in a powerful way. His unending effort on behalf of the Law School in working with the alumni over these many years has resulted in numerous tangible benefits for the Law School, but even more importantly, in many intangible ways, including the great sense of loyalty held by many of these alumni, all of them the Dutchman's former students. The School has no better salesman. He and his wife Dorothy command the …

Vanderbilt Law Review

Consensual Government "The Morality of Consent" by Alexander M. Bickel

Reviewed by Ernest van den Haag

Bickel wanted to make the scope of the law comprehensive enough to proclaim the norms that are consensually perceived to be necessary to social life, yet to let individuals and groups pursue their choices without being forced to conform altogether to majority views or being strapped into judicial strait jackets. His work, and the unifying theme of this posthumous collection of essays, very largely consisted of elaborations of his answer to the question: how can we define the province of constitutional interpretation so as …
