The Peculiarity Of Per Curiam: In The Georgia Supreme Court, R. Perry Sentell Jr.
Mercer Law Review
On notable occasions, the format of a message acquires a heritage equal in significance to the message itself. Because of its history, familiarity, intrigue, or sheer repetition, an account's style of presentation may serve not only to characterize the account, but also to condition its recipient to a pre-ordained demeanor of expectation. Style and substance are thus comingled, and the medium subsumes the message.
It should come as no surprise that the described phenomenon claims a special affinity to the law and to legal "messages." Much of the information transmitted in law and in legal circles projects history, familiarity, intrigue, …
Punishment At All Costs: On Religion, Convicting The Innocent, And Supporting The Death Penalty, Robert L. Young
Punishment At All Costs: On Religion, Convicting The Innocent, And Supporting The Death Penalty, Robert L. Young
William & Mary Bill of Rights Journal
This Paper explores the impact of the belief structure among white fundamentalist denominations on the support for the death penalty. Professor Robert L. Young observes that the tenets of fundamentalism, as well as the great extent that fundamentalists conform to the positions of their clergy, support this link between fundamentalism and a punitive orientation toward wrongdoers. Professor Young explains that members in white fundamentalist churches, to a greater extent than others, are inclined toward a negative view of human nature, which in turn leads to the belief that letting the guilty go free is a more serious mistake than convicting …

Commercial Law, Robert A. Weber Jr.
Mercer Law Review
This year's survey article attempts a synthesis of case law subdivided according to various aspects of a commercial practice. Topics discussed include banking/lender issues, collections, sales of businesses, pitfalls on the front end of a commercial transaction, and a miscellaneous catchall for cases that stubbornly defy categorization.

Insurance, Stephen L. Cotter, C. Bradford Marsh
Insurance, Stephen L. Cotter, C. Bradford Marsh
Mercer Law Review
Although last year the Georgia General Assembly actively worked on managed care and the appellate courts stymied subrogors, legislation was light and appellate litigation routine this survey year. Many appellate opinions were reminders of coverage processing requirements (send the sixty-day "bad faith" demand for payment). Other opinions applied established insurance law principles to particular fact patterns (does every road wreck in Georgia have an appellate coverage decision?). All concerned are having some difficulty adjusting to Georgia's gradual departure from the traditional "four corners" coverage test analysis. The supreme court did breathe life into the hope for liability coverage for sexual …
Gadamer, Heidegger, And The Social Dimensions Of Language: Reflections On The Critical Potential Of Hermeneutical Philosophy, Ingrid Scheibler
Gadamer, Heidegger, And The Social Dimensions Of Language: Reflections On The Critical Potential Of Hermeneutical Philosophy, Ingrid Scheibler
Chicago-Kent Law Review
Beginning with an account of recent efforts, like Georgia Warnke's, to demonstrate Hans-Georg Gadamer's relevance to legal theory, this Article looks at Gadamer's conception of language and tradition, claiming that, while he shares important features of Heidegger's thought, Gadamer productively grounds his view of language and tradition in such a way that the everyday realm of public discourse, characterized by a healthy injunction to foster reasoned debate amongst divergent perspectives and interpretations, has a vital and integral role to play. While Gadamer criticizes the Enlightenment's hostility to tradition, paradoxically, his concept of linguistically mediated tradition has far more in common …

Korean Attitues Towards Law, Chan Jin Kim
Korean Attitues Towards Law, Chan Jin Kim
Washington International Law Journal
Transformation is the key word to explain the Korean attitudes towards law. In the early 1950's, nation building gave impetus to economic growth and allowed Korea to quickly pass through the preliminary stages of development. Industrialization, urbanization and eventual emigration of the populace have, in many senses, displaced the traditional social value system based on Confucianism. However, a new value system has yet to take hold. The lack of such guidelines has left Koreans in a state of confusion in a world that continues to change. The Korean Constitution clearly mandates equal protection under the laws for all Koreans. However, …
One Country, Three Systems? Judicial Review In Macau After Ng Ka Lling, Judith R. Krebs
One Country, Three Systems? Judicial Review In Macau After Ng Ka Lling, Judith R. Krebs
Washington International Law Journal
The Ng Ka Ling decision by the Hong Kong Court of Final Appeals and its reversal by the Standing Committee of China's National People's Congress, raise serious concerns regarding the adequacy of judicial review and the protection of the rule of law in the new special administrative regions under China's "One Country, Two Systems" approach. Judicial review lies at the forefront of this controversy because it largely delineates the contours of local autonomy and the extent to which those who experience legal violations will have remedies. This Comment explores the roots of the conflict in Hong Kong and examines whether …

The Fcc And Section 312(A)(7) Of The Communications Act Of 1934: The Development Of The “Unreasonable Access” Clause, Philip J. Gutwein Ii
Federal Communications Law Journal
Section 312(a)(7) of the Communications Act of 1934 requires that broadcast stations provide legally qualified candidates for federal elective office with reasonable access to advertising time on behalf of their candidacies. The FCC has long struggled with defining "reasonable access." On September 7, 1999, the FCC issued a Memorandum Opinion and Order in which it ruled that broadcast stations may not refuse a request for political advertising time solely because the station does not sell or program such lengths of time. This ruling came in response to a petition for reconsideration of an October 3, 1994 Declaratory Ruling, filed by …
Increasing Telephone Penetration Rates And Promoting Economic Development On Tribal Lands: A Proposal To Solve The Tribal And State Jurisdictional Problems, Jennifer L. King
Increasing Telephone Penetration Rates And Promoting Economic Development On Tribal Lands: A Proposal To Solve The Tribal And State Jurisdictional Problems, Jennifer L. King
Federal Communications Law Journal
Under the Telecommunications Act of 1996, Congress instructed the FCC to ensure that all Americans have access to affordable telecommunications services. Consistent with that mandate, the FCC implemented a series of public hearings to discuss with tribes the issues they face concerning low telephone penetration rates. The FCC recommended investigation of universal service in unserved and underserved areas because telephone penetration rates among low-income consumers on tribal lands lagged behind rates in the rest of the country. From these hearings, the FCC proposed a jurisdictional framework to determine which eligible carriers would be under tribal, state, or federal jurisdiction. This …

Universal Service High-Cost Subsidy Reform: Hindering Cable-Telephony And Other Technological Advancements In Rural And Insular Regions, Emily L. Dawson
Federal Communications Law Journal
Universal service is a public policy initiative designed to ensure that all United States citizens receive widespread access to affordable telecommunications services. Customers in high-cost service regions such as rural and insular areas are typically excluded from the latest telecommunications technology. Most large carriers serving these regions prefer to implement technological updates in urban areas where profit margins are higher while allowing the rural infrastructure to deteriorate. The Federal Universal Service Fund currently offers subsidies to telecommunications providers serving high-cost regions, but the FCC has announced efforts to reform the subsidy allocation system that could potentially impede technological advancement in …

The Uses Of Aristotle In Garamer's Recovery Of Consultative Reasoning: Sunesis, Sungnômê, Epieikeia, And Sumbouleuesthai, P. Christopher Smith
Chicago-Kent Law Review
Using Hans-Georg Gadamer's exposition of Aristotle's adjuncts to phronêsis, or the knowing that guides deliberation, namely understanding, forbearance, and clemency, this Article attempts to retrieve a communal reasoning still evident in Homer but increasingly covered over beginning with Plato and continuing through Hobbes and Locke, in the English-language tradition, and, more recently, Rawls and Toulmin. This Article shows that, in Gadamer's reading of him, Aristotle emerges as a crucial interruption of this tendency of Western thought to abstract from the communal origins of reasoning and to start instead from what an isolated individual sees for himself or herself and …
Amatory Jurisprudence And The Querelle Des Lois, Peter Goodrich
Amatory Jurisprudence And The Querelle Des Lois, Peter Goodrich
Chicago-Kent Law Review
Early common law, both Anglo-Saxon and Anglo-Norman, offered plaintiffs a choice between love and law. Lovedays were more frequent than lawdays, and love explicitly took precedence over formal law. The judgment of love took the form of agreement through amity rather than enmity, affect rather than agon or trial. Using the institution of lovedays as a starting point, Goodrich's Article goes on to trace a longer-term continental history of courts and judgments of love that spans over five centuries and plays out in poetry, theater, and literature as much as in any secular legal institution. Offering a synopsis of the …
How To Be Critical, Stephen M. Feldman
How To Be Critical, Stephen M. Feldman
Chicago-Kent Law Review
Many opponents of critical legal thought assert that it is easy to be critical but hard to be constructive. From this perspective, critical legal activity is simple, while traditional theory is difficult. Feldman argues otherwise. Hans-Georg Gadamer's emphasis on the role and power of tradition in the hermeneutic process suggests how tradition forcefully constrains us. Our prejudices, derived from our communal traditions, limit what we can understand and perceive. Thus, to perform critical activity proves often to be a formidable challenge. It requires the writer somehow to disrupt the reader's basic and deep-seated assumptions, assumptions that typically emerge from a …
Work-In-Progress: Gadamer, Tradition, And The Common Law, Allan C. Hutchinson
Work-In-Progress: Gadamer, Tradition, And The Common Law, Allan C. Hutchinson
Chicago-Kent Law Review
In this Article, Hutchinson provides an account of the common law tradition of judging that draws upon Hans-Georg Gadamer's writings that advance the intellectual project of critical legal theory. Hutchinson contends that Gadamer's hermeneutics can be utilized to offer a more radical and transformative reading of the common law tradition and explores what it means to treat law seriously as a living rhetorical tradition. This Article explores Hutchinson's theory by concentrating on the recent U.S. Supreme Court physician-assisted suicide decision in Washington v. Glucksberg. This Article relies upon the notion of "work-in-progress" as a productive optic through which to …
