An Assessment Of Advance Directives In China: The "Coming Of Age" For Legal Regulation?, Yue An, Mimi Zou Jan 2018

An Assessment Of Advance Directives In China: The "Coming Of Age" For Legal Regulation?, Yue An, Mimi Zou

Marquette Benefits and Social Welfare Law Review

Advance directives (AD) are playing an increasingly important role in end-of-life medical care and treatment in ageing societies. A growing number of jurisdictions have introduced AD-related laws as a component of their medical and health care regulatory frameworks. This article presents an analytical account of why specific regulation on ADs has yet to develop in China, the most populous ageing society in the world. We argue that the regulatory vacuum to date can be partly explained by limited public demand, which can be further accounted by relatively low public awareness as well as the influence of traditional views on life-and-death …


Collateral Consequences For Justice-Involved Youth: A Model Approach To Reducing The Number Of Collateral Consequences, Jennica Janssen Jan 2018

Collateral Consequences For Justice-Involved Youth: A Model Approach To Reducing The Number Of Collateral Consequences, Jennica Janssen

Marquette Benefits and Social Welfare Law Review

Collateral consequences—stigma and disadvantages individuals face after becoming entangled in the legal system—for justice­involved youth differ by jurisdiction and number in the thousands.

This Note recognizes the importance of gathering juvenile collateral …

Comment: Unconstitutional Accountability In The Department Of Veterans Affairs, Ian Pomplin Jan 2018

Comment: Unconstitutional Accountability In The Department Of Veterans Affairs, Ian Pomplin

Marquette Benefits and Social Welfare Law Review

The Department of Veterans Affairs Accountability and Whistleblower Protection Act of 2017, Pub. L. No. 115-41, 131 Stat. 862 (2017), was enacted into law on June 23, 2017, in an effort to reform a troubled government agency that has had the media shine a spotlight on its abuses and waste. This new law significantly lowers the standard of evidence to take adverse actions against federal employees at the Department of Veterans Affairs, overrides collective bargaining agreements, and greatly shortens notice and response time periods that are constitutionally guaranteed. This comment will discuss the history of due process in federal employment, …
