Give Ghosts A Chance: Why Federal Courts Should Cease Sanctioning Every Legal Ghostwriter, Blake G. Tanase Jan 2014

Give Ghosts A Chance: Why Federal Courts Should Cease Sanctioning Every Legal Ghostwriter, Blake G. Tanase

Georgia Law Review

For decades, federal judges have punished attorneys who draft documents for pro se litigants. Meanwhile, many states and the American Bar Association have come to accept this practice as beneficial for low-income litigants and the legal system at large. The Second Circuit recently broke from the federal tradition and found that an attorney's so-called "ghostwriting"of litigation documents for pro se litigants was not sanctionable conduct. That court noted the changes taking place at the state level and rejected other federal courts' justifications for sanctioning legal ghostwriting, but did not elaborate as to why legal ghostwriting should be considered acceptable attorney …


A Common Law Constitutionalism For The Right To Education, Scott R. Bauries Jan 2014

A Common Law Constitutionalism For The Right To Education, Scott R. Bauries

Georgia Law Review

This Article makes two claims, one descriptive and the other normative. The descriptive claim is that individual rights to education have not been realized under state constitutions because the currently dominant structure of education reform litigation prevents such realization. In state constitutional education clause claims, both pleadings and adjudication generally focus on the equality or adequacy of the system as a whole, rather than on any particular student's educational resources or attainment. The Article traces the roots of the currently dominant systemic approach, and finds these roots in federal institutional reform litigation. This systemic focus leads to a systemic, rather …


The Return Of Constitutional Federalism, Logan E. Sawyer Iii Jan 2014

The Return Of Constitutional Federalism, Logan E. Sawyer Iii

Scholarly Works

This article comments on National League of Cities v. Usery, 426 U.S. 833 (1976) and the role played by Justice Lewis F. Powell, Jr. It argues that the decision did not constitute any “return” to “constitutional federalism” and that, despite claims to the contrary, its inspiration came from the political goals of the Court’s conservative Justices. More specifically it argues that Justice Powell’s role was not influenced simply by contemporary critiques that undermined the “political safeguards of federalism” theory but, rather, that Justice Powell’s political views likely shaped both his understanding of the “political safeguards” thesis and his rejection of …


Facilitative Judging: Organizational Design In Mass-Multidistrict Litigation, Jaime Dodge Jan 2014

Facilitative Judging: Organizational Design In Mass-Multidistrict Litigation, Jaime Dodge

Scholarly Works

Faced with the emerging phenomenon of complex litigation—from school desegregation to mass torts—the judiciary of the last century departed from the traditional, purely adjudicative role in favor of managerial judging, in which they actively supervised cases and even became involved in settlement talks. I argue that a similar transition in judicial role is now occurring. I contend that transferee judges are now stepping back from active participation in settlement discussions but playing a far greater role in structuring and administering the litigation. This new judicial role focuses on facilitating the parties’ resolution of the case, whether through settlement or remand …


To The Victor Goes The Toil -- Remedies For Regulated Parties In Separation-Of-Powers Litigation, Kent H. Barnett Jan 2014

To The Victor Goes The Toil -- Remedies For Regulated Parties In Separation-Of-Powers Litigation, Kent H. Barnett

Scholarly Works

The U.S. Constitution imposes three key limits on the design of federal agencies. It constrains how agency officers are appointed, the extent of their independence from the President, and the range of issues that they can decide. Scholars have trumpeted the importance of these safeguards with soaring rhetoric. And the Supreme Court has permitted regulated parties to vindicate these safeguards through implied private rights of action under the Constitution. Regulated parties, for their part, have been successfully challenging agency structure with increased frequency. At the same time, regulated parties, courts, and scholars have largely ignored the practical question of “structural …
