Constitutional Review Of Building Codes And Zoning Ordinances Applied To Parochial Schools: City Of Sumner V. First Baptist Church, Philip R. Meade
Constitutional Review Of Building Codes And Zoning Ordinances Applied To Parochial Schools: City Of Sumner V. First Baptist Church, Philip R. Meade
Seattle University Law Review
The First Baptist Church court should not have required strict scrutiny of either the building code or the zoning ordinance applications. In reaching its decision, the court incorrectly analyzed Supreme Court decisions construing the free exercise clause, and drew mistaken parallels between the two Sumner ordinances and laws that the Supreme Court has identified as burdening religious freedom. The court should have distinguished between generally applicable laws such as Sumner's building code and zoning ordinance that, in regulating the peripheral aspects of religious conduct, incidentally make a religious practice less convenient or more expensive, and laws that effectively penalize the …
A Free Press: The Forgotten Issue In Home Placement V. Providence Journal, Robert J. Curran
A Free Press: The Forgotten Issue In Home Placement V. Providence Journal, Robert J. Curran
Seattle University Law Review
This Note demonstrates that the court's decision in Home Placement did infringe upon protected first amendment activity. Since free speech and free press guarantees were threatened by the government's action, the court should have balanced the competing interests and held in favor of Home Placement only upon a showing of a compelling state interest. After examining the interests of the advertiser, the reader, the government, and the newspaper, this Note concludes that the newspaper's right to control its message and to make editorial decisions free from the threat of governmental interference overbalance the antitrust claim made in this case. A …
Accomodation Of Reputational Interests And Free Press: A Call For A Strict Interpretation Of Gertz, Tom Wall
Accomodation Of Reputational Interests And Free Press: A Call For A Strict Interpretation Of Gertz, Tom Wall
Fordham Urban Law Journal
New York Times Co. v. Sullivan provides that states may award damages in defamation actions brought by public officials against media critics of their official conduct only if the plaintiff proves that the defendant acted with "actual malice." Subsequently, the Supreme Court extended this rule to public figures and promulgated standards for identifying public figures. The Court declared unconstitutional the common law standard of strict liability in actions brought by private individuals. Establishing negligence as a constitutional minimum, the Court delegated to the states the responsibility for formulating the proper standard of fault in actions brought by private individuals. This …

Reverse Freedom Of Information Act Litigation In A Non-Commercial Setting: The Case Of Professor Doe, Lawrence A. Silver
Reverse Freedom Of Information Act Litigation In A Non-Commercial Setting: The Case Of Professor Doe, Lawrence A. Silver
Cleveland State Law Review
So complex are the questions of what the right of privacy is, and when and how it can be invoked, that special precautions must be taken to prevent an article dealing with it from drifting off into the fascinating but misty realms of metaphysical speculation. This Article will deal with an important issue raised but not answered by the Federal Freedom of Information and Privacy Acts: the rights of a private party who seeks to prevent the federal government from releasing information concerning him.
The Broadening Of The Pentagon Papers Standard: An Impermissible Misapplication Of The National Security Exception To The Prior Restraint Doctrine, Sherrie L. Bennett
The Broadening Of The Pentagon Papers Standard: An Impermissible Misapplication Of The National Security Exception To The Prior Restraint Doctrine, Sherrie L. Bennett
Seattle University Law Review
This comment examines the history of the national security exception to the prior restraint rule and discusses the elements of the Pentagon Papers standard in the context of the Marchetti and Progressive opinions. Application of those elements to the reasoning of the cases demonstrates the failure of these lower courts to follow the Supreme Court's strict view of when restraint is justified. Examining the theoretical basis underlying the first amendment, the comment concludes that strict application of the Pentagon Papers standard is essential to continuing protection of the American people's right to be informed of government activities.

Justice Stevens: The First Three Terms, George C. Lamb, Iii, Charles L. Schlumberger, D. J. Simonetti, James D. Spratt Jr., Joel R. Tew, Douglas W. Ey, Jr. Special Projects Editor
Vanderbilt Law Review
This Special Project undertakes an examination of Justice Stevens' Supreme Court opinions in an effort to identify his philosophical orientations, to evaluate the consistency of his views, and to determine the extent to which he has developed workable analytical methods. To achieve these goals, Justice Stevens' opinions are examined in three contexts: first, the area of federal-state relations,including commerce clause and supremacy clause questions; second, the individual rights area, emphasizing criminal constitutional and first amendment issues, and problems of fifth and fourteenth amendment analysis; and third, questions concerning the proper role of the Supreme Court in the constitutional scheme. Even …

Shield Laws: The Legislative Response To Journalistic Privilege, Susan L. Dolin
Shield Laws: The Legislative Response To Journalistic Privilege, Susan L. Dolin
Cleveland State Law Review
Despite the increasing importance of the journalist in society, one controversy which has long been of significant concern to reporters has yet to be resolved - the compelled disclosure of journalistic sources in courtroom or grand jury proceedings. Threatened with citation for contempt, the journalist in such situations must often face two equally unacceptable alternatives: divulge a confidential source, or go to jail. To circumvent conflicts of this nature, the journalistic profession has urged the adoption of an evidentiary privilege which would protect reporters from compelled disclosure of confidential sources. This Note will focus on one means of instituting such …
Constitutional Law - Commercial Speech - Municipal Ordinance Which Prohibits The Display Of "For Sale" And "Sold" Signs On Residential Property In Order To Prevent Panic Selling Is Constitutional, Mary M. Popper
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This case note examines the United States Third Circuit Court of Appeals' decision in Linmark Associates, Inc. v. Township of Willingboro, 535 F.2d 786 (3d Cir.), cert. granted, 97 S. Ct. 351 (1976), upholding the constitutionality of an ordinance prohibiting the display of "for sale" and "sold" signs on residential property. The Third Circuit held that the signs were primarily commercial speech and since neither message contained comment on social policy, political protest, or similar elements of pure speech, the governmental interests forwarded by the ordinance sufficiently outweighed any infringement on first amendment rights. The case note finds that in …

Placement Of Children In Religiously Affiliated Foster Care Held Not Violative Of Establishment Clause Where State Acts In Loco Parentis To Meet Free Excercise Rights Of Children. Wilder V. Sugarman, 385 F. Supp. 1013 (S.D.N.Y. 1974) (Per Curiam)., Richard F. Nacchio
Fordham Urban Law Journal
The New York State Constitution provides for the assignment of foster children to "an institution or agency governed by persons, or in the custody of a person, of the same religious persuasion as the child." It likewise empowers the state to reimburse foster care institutions for the expense of caring for the children. Plaintiffs, six children for whom guardians were appointed, sought a declaratory judgment that provisions of the New York State Constitution and statutes implementing these constitutional provisions violate the first, eighth, and fourteenth amendments of the United States Constitution. Defendants were public agencies and officials responsible for the …
Television And Radio Commentators' Freedom Of Speech Not Infringed By Dues Requirement Of Union Shop Agreement. Buckley V. American Federation Of Television And Radio Artists, 496 F.2d 305 (2d Cir.), Cert. Denied, 95 S. Ct. 688 (1974)., Edwin M. Ceccarelli
Fordham Urban Law Journal
Plaintiffs, prominent television and radio commentators, were compelled to pay union dues and join the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (AFTRA) as a condition precedent to their public broadcasts. Plaintiffs sought declaratory and injunctive relief, alleging that this union shop requirement had a "chilling effect" upon the exercise of free speech and thus violated the first amendment. The United States District Court for the Southern District of New York ruled in plaintiffs' favor and declared that any provisions requiring plaintiffs to become members of AFTRA, pay dues, and comply with any regulations incident thereto were void and of …

Healy V. James: Official Campus Recognition For Student Groups, Jeffrey L. Terbeek
Cleveland State Law Review
On June 26, 1972, the Supreme Court of the United States handed down its decision in the case of Healy v. James, a decision which will have great effect in the administrative review by a college or university official of a petition by a student group for recognition as a fullfledged campus organization. The Court declared that such a petition carries with it the associational rights of the group as protected by the first amendment, which can not be subjected to the prior restraint of denial without a constitutionally valid cause; placed the burden of proving such cause on the …

Vanderbilt Law Review
This article is the text of the Oliver Wendell Holmes Lectures, delivered by Professor Wright at the Vanderbilt University School of Law in April, 1969. Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., left a large part of his estate to the United States at his death in 1935.
