Employer Sexual Harassment Liability Under Agency Principles:A Second Look At Meritor Savingsbank, Fsb V. Vinson, Michael J. Phillips
Employer Sexual Harassment Liability Under Agency Principles:A Second Look At Meritor Savingsbank, Fsb V. Vinson, Michael J. Phillips
Vanderbilt Law Review
With its 1986 decision in Meritor Savings Bank, FSB v. Vinson,the United States Supreme Court put its imprimatur on the Title VII sexual harassment cause of action that had emerged over the preceding decade. Early commentary on the case tended to emphasize this aspect of the Court's decision or to speculate about Meritor's impact on the future course of Title VII sexual harassment litigation. Getting relatively short shrift in this early commentary, however, was the Court's command that "agency principles" --the common law of agency-- be consulted to determine an employer's liability for harassment committed by its employees.' As subsequent …

Two (Federal) Wrongs Make A (State) Right: State Class Action Procedures As An Alternative To The Opt-In Class Action Provisions Of The Adea, Janet M. Bowermaster
Two (Federal) Wrongs Make A (State) Right: State Class Action Procedures As An Alternative To The Opt-In Class Action Provisions Of The Adea, Janet M. Bowermaster
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
This Article argues that the opt-in class action of the ADEA is an anachronism and that age-discrimination litigants can take advantage of the broader protection afforded to Title VII litigants by bringing their ADEA suits as Rule 23 class actions in state courts. A comparison of the two statutes reveals similar purposes and nearly identical substantive provisions, but procedural provisions that provide less protection to victims of age discrimination, including widely disparate class-action provisions.

Coase, Rents, And Opportunity Costs, Stewart J. Schwab
Coase, Rents, And Opportunity Costs, Stewart J. Schwab
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
Professor Posin is to be congratulated on his recent article in this Review, "The Coase Theorem: If Pigs Could Fly," for creating a precise example that purports to disprove the Coase Theorem. Legal scholarship should strive more towards verifiable or falsifiable statements about the law. Of course, falsifiable statements are a risky strategy, and in this case the risk has materialized. Posin's claim—that his example shows a flaw in the Coase Theorem—is false.
Posin's claim is an especially bold one, for his example deals with a shifting legal entitlement between two producers. Most successful attacks on the Coase Theorem have …

Labouring Outside The Charter, David M. Beatty
Labouring Outside The Charter, David M. Beatty
Osgoode Hall Law Journal
In this essay, Professor Beatty reviews the leading Charter cases decided by the Supreme Court of Canada which consider the constitutionality of a variety of different labour laws. In reasoning and result, he finds that by and large these cases provide strong support for those legal scholars who are generally sceptical of the law and critical of the courts and who predicted that, even with the Charter, it was unlikely the Court would change the antipathy judges have historically displayed to the interests of workers and their associations. However, while these legal theorists may draw some comfort from these decisions …

Notes: Termination Of Employment Contracts And Taking Advantage Of One's Wrong, Andrew B.L. Phang
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
The recent decision by Mr John Mowbray QC in Micklefield v SAC Technology Ltd brings into focus the thorny problems inherent within, first, the continuing uncertainty surrounding termination of employment contracts and, secondly, the much more general issue as to the status as well as application of the proposition that a contracting party ought not to be allowed to take advantage of his own wrong. There was a third issue taken in the case with regard to the applicability of the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977 which will be briefly commented upon.

Free Exercise: A "Hollow Promise" For The Native American In Employment Division, Department Of Human Resources Of Oregon V. Smith, Debra Ann Mermann
Mercer Law Review
In Employment Division, Department of Human Resources of Oregon v. Smith, the United States Supreme Court held that a state criminal prohibition of the use of peyote by bona fide members of the Native American Church and a subsequent denial of unemployment benefits upon their discharge for such use does not violate the free exercise clause of the first amendment of the United States Constitution. The Court determined that Oregon's prohibition of the sacramental use of peyote was a "generally applicable criminal law" and ruled that the "compelling interest" test which ordinarily applies when a state imposes a substantial …
Employment Discrimination, Peter Reed Corbin, John E. Duvall
Employment Discrimination, Peter Reed Corbin, John E. Duvall
Mercer Law Review
In what no doubt will prove to be the calm before the storm, the number of cases decided in the area of employment discrimination during the 1990 survey period decreased significantly, both in the United States Supreme Court and in the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit. The decline in the number of Supreme Court pronouncements is not surprising, since the succession of landmark cases decided in the previous two years was truly remarkable, and such a pace realistically could not have continued. It also appears as if the Eleventh Circuit held back, waiting to see whether …
Penetrating Doctrinal Camouflage: Understanding The Development Of The Law Of Wrongful Discharge, Cornelius J. Peck
Penetrating Doctrinal Camouflage: Understanding The Development Of The Law Of Wrongful Discharge, Cornelius J. Peck
Washington Law Review
American courts developed the employment-at-will doctrine during the post-Civil War period of industrial and commercial expansion. Under that doctrine, either an employer or an employee could terminate an employment contract for any reason, good or bad. In the early 1980s, state supreme courts increasingly recognized exceptions to the employment-at-will doctrine to provide greater job protection for employees. In creating those exceptions, state courts have manipulated and stretched traditional legal doctrine to camouflage their reformist program. But that camouflage which facilitated changes in the law now often obscures the original reason for departing from the employment-at-will doctrine. Some state courts, including …
Determining Just Cause: An Equitable Solution For The Workplace, Wendi J. Delmendo
Determining Just Cause: An Equitable Solution For The Workplace, Wendi J. Delmendo
Washington Law Review
A majority of courts now recognize that an employer's implied promise to discharge an employee only for just cause is an exception to the at-will employment doctrine. These courts, however, have not articulated a clear definition ofjust cause nor have they established a consistent standard for a jury's review of employer discharge decisions. This Comment suggests that courts develop strict guidelines for determining if an employee's conduct is just cause for discharge. Further, this Comment proposes that courts adopt a standard of review that requires the jury to balance employer and employee interests.

Mercer Law Review
This Article examines certain noteworthy decisions issued by the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit during 1990 in the areas of traditional labor law and employee benefits. More specifically, the decisions addressed constitute the Eleventh Circuit's most recent interpretations of the National Labor Relations Act ("NLRA"), the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959 ("LMRDA"), the Railway Labor Act ("RLA"), the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 ("FLSA"), the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"), and the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 ("OSHA"). Certain other labor-related cases are also discussed.

Pregnancy And Parental Care Policies In The United States And The European Community: What Do They Tell Us About Underlying Societal Values, Anne M. Lofaso
Law Faculty Scholarship
Reaction to Felice Schwartz article, "Management Women and the New Facts of Life,"1 has added a new question to the already heated debate surrounding issues of gender discrimination: to what extent are
current pregnancy and parental care policies instruments of discrimination? This paper will explore this question by focusing on the extent to which pregnancy and parental care laws and policies in the United States and the European Community help to subordinate those women who take advantage of maternity "benefits" as well as the class of women in general.
An examination of pregnancy and parental care leave is a legitimate …

Fertile Women May Now Apply: Fetal Protection Policies After Johnson Controls, Barbara Ruhe Grumet
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
In its recent interpretation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the U.S. Supreme Court leaves little room for permissible occupational sex discrimination. However, its decision has wider implications. Here, Professor Grumet takes a look at some of them from both a legal and a social perspective, including matters such as employees' reproductive freedom and employers' potential liability for a variety of possible injuries to employees' offspring.
