The Question Of Family: Lesbians And Gay Men Reflecting A Redefined Society, Libby Post Jan 1992

The Question Of Family: Lesbians And Gay Men Reflecting A Redefined Society, Libby Post

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The cutting edge issue in the gay community is now the fight for domestic partnership rights. The absence of domestic partnership rights have resulted in the unequal treatment of an entire class of citizens, with gays and lesbians routinely denied jobs, housing, economic benefits such as health care, insurance, public accommodations, and may even result in these individuals being fired or facing eviction solely because of their sexual orientation. The author argues that to rectify these injustices, we must redefine the definition of family to be more in line with that used in New York's Braschi v. Stahl Assocs. Co., …


What Do You Mean My Partnership Has Been Petitioned Into Bankruptcy?, Karen E. Blaney Jan 1992

What Do You Mean My Partnership Has Been Petitioned Into Bankruptcy?, Karen E. Blaney

Fordham Urban Law Journal

Bankruptcy law regarding partnerships differs from the law pertaining to individuals and corporations. Only a partnership can be involuntarily petitioned into bankruptcy by individuals within the organization. Involuntary petitions can be used by general partners as bargaining chips, and may encourage partners who can personally benefit from filing to do so, even if the act would be detrimental to the partnership. Under present bankruptcy law, an involuntary petition may be commenced against a partnership by fewer than all of the general partners in such partnership. In comparison to prior bankruptcy provisions governing a partner's involuntary petition against the partnership, the …

Toward Equal Delivery Of Municipal Services In The Central Cities, Kenneth W. Bond Jan 1976

Toward Equal Delivery Of Municipal Services In The Central Cities, Kenneth W. Bond

Fordham Urban Law Journal

Urban living has become inevitable for most Americans in central cities and government assistance has risen steadily to help the masses crowded in the urban complex. Legislation has been aimed at equalizing the opportunity for employment, decent housing, voting, education, basic social welfare, and a host of other concerns considered elemental for the fulfillment of the “American dream.” Until recently, the courts have been slow to act affirmatively to remedy the inequities related to the enforcement of such legislation. Recent cases suggest an attitude of benign complacency in the Supreme Court, allowing it to ignore critical socio-economic problems in the …


The Small Tax Case Procedure: How It Works--Does It Work?, Christopher J. Badum Jan 1976

The Small Tax Case Procedure: How It Works--Does It Work?, Christopher J. Badum

Fordham Urban Law Journal

In 1968 the section of Taxation of the American Bar Association proposed an amendment to the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 to provide for a small claims division in the United States Tax Court. Such a division was thought to be a necessary alternative to the often expensive and time consuming tax litigation procedure in the Tax Court, the Court of Claims, and the district court. Congress adopted the proposal and it was incorporated into the Tax Reform Act of 1969. This Note will discuss the proceedings of bringing suit in the Small Tax Case Division and will propose ways …
