Advancing Tolerance And Equality Using State Constitutions: Are The Boy Scouts Prepared?, Rachel A. Van Cleave Oct 1999

Advancing Tolerance And Equality Using State Constitutions: Are The Boy Scouts Prepared?, Rachel A. Van Cleave

Publications

The traditional United States Supreme Court analysis for determining whether a group may exclude people from membership on the basis of sexual orientation involves a series of either/or choices. For example, in the context of the exclusion of homosexuals by the Boy Scouts of America, one issue is whether the Boy Scouts is a "public accommodation.' Another issue is whether homosexuals constitute a protected class. This Article argues that independent state constitutional analysis of this issue provides an opportunity to avoid the narrowing effects of the traditional dichotomies, and that courts should directly consider the interests of the parties. In …

The Role Of United States Federal Courts In Extradition Matters: The Rule Of Non-Inquiry, Preventive Detention And Comparative Legal Analysis, Rachel A. Van Cleave Jan 1999

The Role Of United States Federal Courts In Extradition Matters: The Rule Of Non-Inquiry, Preventive Detention And Comparative Legal Analysis, Rachel A. Van Cleave

Publications

This paper argues that applying the rule of non-inquiry to the issue of whether the requested person has been charged is analytically incorrect where the relevant treaty defines as extraditable persons who have been charged or convicted of certain offenses, thus requiring a judicial determination as to whether the person requested has been charged as part of the initial inquiry into extraditability. By contrast, the rule of non-inquiry is typically used to reject arguments of persons who are otherwise extraditable. This issue has not received much analysis perhaps because federal courts are reluctant to look beyond an arrest warrant issued …
