The American Experience With Employee Noncompete Clauses: Constraints On Employees Flourish And Do Real Damage In The Land Of Economic Liberty, Kenneth G. Dau-Schmidt, Xiaohan Sun, Phillip J. Jones

Proportionality, Rationality And Review, Paul Craig Jan 2010

Proportionality, Rationality And Review, Paul Craig

Articles by Maurer Faculty

There is a debate in certain common law jurisdictions as to whether proportionality should be accepted as a general criterion for judicial review in administrative law. This article responds to Mike Taggart’s bifurcation thesis and his argument that proportionality should be reserved for rights-based cases, with low intensity rationality review being used for other types of case. I argue to the contrary that proportionality should be a general principle of judicial review that can be used both in cases concerned with rights and in non-rights based cases, albeit with varying intensity of review. The article begins by addressing the advantages …

A Married Woman's Surname: Is Custom Law?, Julia C. Lamber Jan 1973

A Married Woman's Surname: Is Custom Law?, Julia C. Lamber

Articles by Maurer Faculty

A general awakening of concern for the rights of women has occurred in recent years, and with it the particular problems of married women have been analyzed against a background of centuries of legal and social assumptions. With the impetus of employment discrimination legislation, the proposed equal rights amendment, and litigation raising sex discrimination issues, it is not surprising that many women are actively seeking to retain their pre-marriage names. This movement compels us to re-examine the custom that a woman must assume her husband's surname upon marriage. That such a phenomenon is custom and not law deserves our attention …
