A Right Without Remedy: State Employees After Seminole Tribe And Alden, Heather Lueke Dec 2001

A Right Without Remedy: State Employees After Seminole Tribe And Alden, Heather Lueke

William & Mary Bill of Rights Journal

Over the past decade, courts have wrestled with state employees 'private legal remedy for a violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act. As a result of the decisions in Seminole Tribe v. Florida and Alden v. Maine, state employees lost their right to sue for such violations.

Takings And Causation, Jan G. Laitos May 1997

Takings And Causation, Jan G. Laitos

William & Mary Bill of Rights Journal

Constitutional protection of private property is grounded in a conflict between two legal principles--the government's power to regulate private property for the common good and the Constitution's limit on this power in the Takings Clause. The Takings Clause's check on government power conforms to John Rawls's philosophy, which rejects the utilitarian beliefs that government may act to achieve* the "good" of maximizing human happiness and that government can force people to trade certain political liberties for an improved distribution of wealth.

William & Mary Journal of Race, Gender, and Social Justice
