Break The Monopoly Of Lawyers On The Supreme Court, Arthur S. Miller, Jeffrey H. Bowman Mar 1986

Break The Monopoly Of Lawyers On The Supreme Court, Arthur S. Miller, Jeffrey H. Bowman

Vanderbilt Law Review

The questions these cases pose are: Do lawyers alone have the wisdom to make such sociological and moral decisions as Plessy, Brown, and Roe? Should only lawyers deal with political theory in the way the Supreme Court has in the Legislative Reapportionment Cases? Can only lawyers deal in a definitive way with the troublesome questions concerning the relationship of church and state presented by the Prayer Cases? Although the list of cases may be extended to cover the full range of socioeconomic questions that remain of fundamental importance to this country, the answer to these questions remains the same. No …

When Lawyer And Client Meet: Observations Of Interviewing And Counseling Behavior In The Consumer Bankruptcy Law Office, Gary Neustadter Jan 1986

When Lawyer And Client Meet: Observations Of Interviewing And Counseling Behavior In The Consumer Bankruptcy Law Office, Gary Neustadter

Faculty Publications

What happens when lawyer and client first meet? How do they talk, how do they listen, what do they say, and what do they do? The answers to these questions are generated, and then lost, in thousands of law offices daily. There is thus a treasure of information, but it is mostly hidden from our view by legal barriers that protect privacy and confidentiality and by other barriers, economic, psychological, and logistical, that inhibit or preclude third party observation of lawyer-client contact. This Article reports an exploratory journey in search of that treasure, a journey into six law offices in …

Styles Of Law And The Attainment Of Social Justice, Richard O. Lempert, Joseph Sanders Jan 1986

Styles Of Law And The Attainment Of Social Justice, Richard O. Lempert, Joseph Sanders

Book Chapters

In the last chapter we focused on the meaning of legal autonomy and on the constituent elements of the ideal type. We noted two requisites for the autonomous application of law: judicial formalism and equal competence. But we also argued that the autonomous application of law does not guarantee that the law as applied will not perpetuate or advance socioeconomic differences. For applied law to be autonomous in this further sense, legal norms, in addition, must be status neutral, and the distribution of welfare in society must be such that the neutral norms do not disproportionately benefit some people. These …

Procedures For Meetings And Organizations, Innis Christie Jan 1986

Procedures For Meetings And Organizations, Innis Christie

Innis Christie Collection

Why would an academic psychologist and an academic engineer write a book about "how to set up organizations" and run their meetings? The authors do not answer that question in their preface so we are free to speculate that this is their escape from the "meeting madness" that threatens every academic. They have attempted not only to bring some order into that omnipresent aspect of their own lives but also to share the fruits of their efforts with the rest of us in this very fine handbook.

Judicial Criticism, James Boyd White Jan 1986

Judicial Criticism, James Boyd White

Articles

Today I shall talk about the criticism of judicial opinions, especially of constitutional opinions. This may at first seem to have rather little to do with our larger topic, "The Constitution and Human Values," but I hope that by the end I will be seen to be talking about that subject too. In fact I hope to show that in what I call our "criticism" our "values" are defined and made actual in most important ways.
