Corpus Linguistics And The Criminal Law, Carissa B. Hessick
Corpus Linguistics And The Criminal Law, Carissa B. Hessick
Faculty Publications
This brief response to Ordinary Meaning and Corpus Linguistics, an article by Stefan Gries and Brian Slocum, explains why corpus linguistics represents a radical break from current statutory interpretation practice, and it argues that corpus linguistics ought not be adopted as an interpretive theory for criminal laws. Corpus linguistics has superficial appeal because it promises to increase predictability and to decrease the role of judges’ personal preferences in statutory interpretation. But there are reasons to doubt that corpus linguistics can achieve these goals. More importantly, corpus linguistics sacrifices other, more important values, including notice and accountability.

Privacy And Court Records: Online Access And The Loss Of Practical Obscurity, David S. Ardia
Faculty Publications
Court records present a conundrum for privacy advocates.
