The Twenty-First Century Death Penalty And Paths Forward, Jeffrey Omar Usman
The Twenty-First Century Death Penalty And Paths Forward, Jeffrey Omar Usman
Mississippi College Law Review
Today, states are moving closer to another moment of critical decision-making in charting the course of the death penalty in the United States. Unlike the sudden and dramatic immediacy of Furman, however, this moment is arriving through a slower and quieter progression, or perhaps more accurately a deceleration. While not abolished, in many states application of the death penalty is grinding or has ground to a halt. If the status quo holds, the vast majority of defendants who are sentenced to death by the states will instead live out their natural lives in prison for decades dying of old age …
Clear As Mud: The Confused State Of Mississippi's State Firearm Carry Laws, Garrett Anderson
Clear As Mud: The Confused State Of Mississippi's State Firearm Carry Laws, Garrett Anderson
Mississippi College Law Review
Few debates in America are more divisive than the debate over gun control. In the wake of large-scale shootings and heightened awareness of gun violence across the nation, discussions inevitably take place over viable solutions. Some propose more comprehensive, restrictive gun ownership legislation that would limit citizens' ability to carry firearms, while others believe the solution lies in relaxing existing regulations to allow armed citizens to intervene when necessary. While these two camps often find little middle ground in the gun debate, each would likely agree on one thing: a need for clarity and greater effectiveness of current laws. This …
The Role Of Scientific Research In The Development Of Legislation, منصور الصرايرة
The Role Of Scientific Research In The Development Of Legislation, منصور الصرايرة
Jerash for Research and Studies Journal مجلة جرش للبحوث والدراسات
This research dealt with issues related to the role of scientific research in the development of legislation, and the research aimed to clarify the concept of scientific research, its importance in preparing and drafting legislation, and clarifying its role in linking jurisprudence and legislation and the extent to which its theories are implemented in the field of legislation.
The problem of the research was the extent to which the national legislator adopted or ignored the opinions of legal scholars and commentators and their points of view in the legislation that the legislator is enacting or amending, hence the importance of …

Implied Warranty Claims Under The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act: Resolving Fifty Years Of Uncertainty, Stephen E. Friedman
Implied Warranty Claims Under The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act: Resolving Fifty Years Of Uncertainty, Stephen E. Friedman
Pace Law Review
This Article addresses whether Congress intended for consumers to bring implied warranty claims on consumer products under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act in all instances or only when a defective product is covered by a written warranty. The question, unresolved almost fifty years after the Act’s passage, is of great practical importance because consumers who bring claims under the Act are eligible for attorneys’ fees and other potential advantages not available to plaintiffs bringing warranty claims under state law. This Article analyzes the two current approaches courts have taken to address the issue: a broad approach where consumers can bring a …

UAEU Law Journal
field of endowment (waqf), especially by focusing on the endowment code as a model for contemporary endowment legislation. The study concluded that the legislation in the field of endowment (waqf) knows a set of important peculiarities that have been invoked since the thought of the development of the code and continued with its various stations, as well as during the legislative procedure that was approached, and this stems mainly from the privacy and independence of endowment provisions, and their connection to the Islamic legislative system and its sources, that system From which the Emirate of the Faithful derives its roots …
The Doj Olc Transparency Act: Is Transparency Enough To Combat Problematic Norms In The Office Of Legal Counsel?, Sarah Patrick
The Doj Olc Transparency Act: Is Transparency Enough To Combat Problematic Norms In The Office Of Legal Counsel?, Sarah Patrick
Northwestern Journal of Law & Social Policy
Over the last two decades, the Office of Legal Counsel has come under scrutiny for controversial opinions that have advised the President on the constitutionality of his actions, from interrogation and detention of military detainees to presidential immunity from congressional investigation and subpoenas to testify. Its opinions tend to conform with the unitary executive theory and defer to the executive’s position—and that’s only the opinions the public knows about. The Office of Legal Counsel is not required to disclose its opinions, and often does not, citing concerns about national security and the need for confidentiality.
A recent legislative effort, the …

State Criminal Laws Could Be A Light In The Dark For The Hidden Victims Of Forced Marriage, Rebekah Marcarelli
State Criminal Laws Could Be A Light In The Dark For The Hidden Victims Of Forced Marriage, Rebekah Marcarelli
Journal of Civil Rights and Economic Development
(Excerpt)
“There’s something you need to know about me . . . I am dead,” said Fraidy Reiss, a survivor of an abusive forced marriage, as she stood alone on a stage, speaking to a crowd. “I know what you’re thinking, [I don’t] look particularly dead . . . you might want to tell that to my family [because] they declared me dead almost thirteen years ago.”
Reiss, who founded the organization Unchained at Last to help forced marriage victims like herself, grew up in an ultra-Orthodox Jewish community in Brooklyn. Right after finishing high school, Reiss was asked to …
Cosmetic Crisis: The Obsolete Regulatory Framework Of The Ever-Evolving Cosmetic Industry, Isabelle M. Carbajales
Cosmetic Crisis: The Obsolete Regulatory Framework Of The Ever-Evolving Cosmetic Industry, Isabelle M. Carbajales
University of Miami Law Review
Cosmetics only first became regulated after a series of tragic events where users were seriously harmed from the use of cosmetic products. These tragic events prompted legislators to enact the Food, Drug, and Cosmetics Act of 1938. Before then, law makers feared that regulating the cosmetic industry would lower the tone of legislation because they considered the cosmetic industry to be inconsequential. At present, the regulatory system in place to protect vulnerable cosmetic consumers is nearly identical to when it was enacted over eighty-six years ago—even though the cosmetic market looks nothing like it did back then. The consumer base …

Child Sexual Abuse And Exploitation Through Livestreaming In Indonesia: Unequal Power Relations At The Root Of Child Victimization, Ni Luh Tasya Prathisthita Tanaya, Ni Made Martini Puteri
Journal of International Women's Studies
Child sexual abuse and exploitation through livestreaming is a rising phenomenon of online child sexual abuse and exploitation in Indonesia. This phenomenon takes place in both offline and online spaces. Moreover, due to the active involvement of the viewers, these content viewers can also be considered as offenders. Thus, it is necessary to recognize this phenomenon as a crime against children, instead of merely a sexual act. By using a criminology perspective, this research explores the roots of this phenomenon, the impact on survivors, and the child protection system’s actions against it. This qualitative study used secondary data analysis, derived …
The Constitutionality Of Contributing To Climate Change, Madeline Troxell
The Constitutionality Of Contributing To Climate Change, Madeline Troxell
Brigham Young University Prelaw Review
Despite the issue of human-caused climate change being upheld by science for decades, topics of its legitimacy, relevance, and repercussions are still debated heavily today. In an attempt to argue for their constitutional right to a safe and livable climate, 21 young plaintiffs have sued the federal government for its affirmative action increasing America’s dependency on fossil fuels, thus exacerbating the climate crisis. The obstacles facing their case can be reduced to an argument concerning the courts jurisdiction over climate issues. This article will argue that the plaintiff's case is centered around the civil rights of children, and thus the …

Paradigma Model Legislasi Dan Tujuan Penguatan Sistem Presidensial Republik Indonesia, Aldi Yoga Hartama
Jurnal Hukum & Pembangunan
One of the five basic agreements in the constitutional amendment is to strengthen the presidential system. However, the legislative practices that have been running so far tend to move away from the character of legislation in the presidential system itself. This paper tries to suggest the dynamics of the legislative model that runs after the 2002 constitutional amendment. At the same time, it will discuss how the legislative process should be carried out in a presidential system of government and its comparison with the legislative process in a parliamentary system of government.
You’Re Out!: Three Strikes Against The Plra’S Three Strikes Rule, Kasey Clark
You’Re Out!: Three Strikes Against The Plra’S Three Strikes Rule, Kasey Clark
Georgia Law Review
As federal court caseloads increased in the twentieth century, concerned jurists and academics pointed their fingers at many potential culprits. One culprit in particular, however, caught the attention of Congress: suits brought by prisoners. To curtail what it believed was an influx of frivolous prisoner litigation, Congress passed the Prison Litigation Reform Act (PLRA) in 1996. One provision of the PLRA, known as the “three strikes rule,” prohibits a prisoner from proceeding in forma pauperis if three or more of the prisoner’s prior actions or appeals have been dismissed as frivolous or malicious or for failure to state a claim …
A Fourteenth Century Solution To A Twenty-First Century Problem: Using Qui Tam Legislation To Limit Executive War Power, Nicholas R. Lewis
A Fourteenth Century Solution To A Twenty-First Century Problem: Using Qui Tam Legislation To Limit Executive War Power, Nicholas R. Lewis
Georgia Law Review
The United States was founded on the principle that Congress alone has the power to take the nation to war. This founding principle has failed. In its place now stands the modern principle that the Executive holds the power to initiate, wage, and conclude warfare. This modern principle, which is irreconcilable with the intent of America’s Founders, is a problem that must be remedied. And while this problem may be most pronounced in the twenty-first century, a possible solution comes from the most unlikely of places: fourteenth century England. In the 1300s, England developed qui tam legislation, a novel legal …

Privacy Is Not Dead: Expressively Using Law To Push Back Against Corporate Deregulators And Meaningfully Protect Data Privacy Rights, Alexander F. Krupp
Georgia Law Review
When the European Union’s (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) passed in 2016, it represented the world’s first major comprehensive data privacy law and kicked off a conversation about how we think about the right to privacy in the modern age. The law granted a broad range of rights to EU citizens, including a right to have companies delete data they collect about you, a right not to have your personal information sold, and a range of other rights all geared towards individual autonomy over personal data. All the while, platform companies like Facebook (Meta), Apple, and Amazon have taken …

He Said, She Said: Assessing The Post-Colonial Legacy On Somalia’S Rape Laws, Natalia W. Nyczak
He Said, She Said: Assessing The Post-Colonial Legacy On Somalia’S Rape Laws, Natalia W. Nyczak
Emory International Law Review
Most jurisdictions have adopted changes in legislation within the past fifty years that reflect the evolution and advancement of women’s legal rights. Somalia, however, has not undergone a significant change in its legal regime since the 1960s. Somalia’s penal code and criminal procedure code are based on laws that were written in the late 1800s to early 1900s. When it comes to rape, judges harbor the beliefs that women must “put up a fight” against their assailants and doubt the inherent trustworthiness of women. These prevailing gender myths prevent women from accessing justice and infringe on their rights to equality …

Deportations For Drug Convictions In The United States And The European Union: Creating A More Compassionate Approach Toward Drug Convictions In The Immigration Law, Megan Smith
San Diego International Law Journal
This Comment begins by examining and comparing the legal framework for deportation and other immigration consequences for convictions of drug offenses in the United States, the European Union, and the United Kingdom. This Comment then looks at the harsh effects of current immigration policy on individuals and marginalized communities. Finally, this Comment argues that immigration law should be reformed to adopt a more humanitarian approach toward non-citizens convicted of drug offenses. Deportation and other harsh immigration consequences for drug offenses levy disproportionately severe punishments toward vulnerable minority immigrant communities, exposing them to consequences much harsher than non-immigrants would face for …

The Legislative Development Regulating Medically Assisted Reproductive Technology In Algerian Law: A Comparative Analytical Study, Dr. Muorad Seghir, Dr. Dellal Yazid
UAEU Law Journal
Algerian legislation has included provisions related to what is known as artificial insemination under Article 45 of the Family Code, after its amendment, without defining it, as well as deficiency in controlling its conditions. However, the new health law 2018 remedied the matter, by means of a new, more accurate and meaningful designation (medical assistance for reproduction), based on most modern legislation in the medical field, such as French law, UAE law and others. As well as explaining the terms and conditions for performing this type of reproductive method. However, this dual regulation of the Medicaid Reproduction Mechanism between the …
Managing Mass Tort Class Actions: Judicial Politics And Rulemaking In Three Acts, Toby S. Goldbach
Managing Mass Tort Class Actions: Judicial Politics And Rulemaking In Three Acts, Toby S. Goldbach
University of Miami Law Review
Judges take part in a variety of non-adjudicative tasks that shape the structure of litigation. In addition to their managerial functions, judges sit as administrative heads of court. They participate in civil justice reform projects and develop procedures for criminal and civil trials. What norms and principles ought to guide judges in this other work? In their casework we expect judges to be neutral and fair, setting aside politics and rationally following the law. Indeed, this article will demonstrate that there is good reason to insist on these qualities in both judges’ case-related and broader court-related reform activities. To test …
