Ace In The Hole: Why Ohio Bluffs While Others Bite On Lucrative Casino Issues And How To Induce Buckeye Voters To Go All-In, Mike Rasor

Mike Rasor

Casino gambling is one of Ohio’s hottest political topics. It has been for the past quarter century. Despite the economic hardships in many Rust Belt cities, opponents of casino gambling have stood strong against initiatives to bring casinos into their state. Proponents of casino gambling, on the other hand, have consistently consisted of a few wealthy entrepreneurs who stood to directly benefit from casinos. In the middle stood millions of economically concerned Ohioans who are neither morally opposed nor especially eager to allow casinos in the state.

Capturing the support of the moderate voters is the focus of “Ace in …

Can You Hear Me Up There? Giving Voice To Local Communities Imperative For Achieving Sustainability, Patricia E. Salkin

Scholarly Works

Sustainable development is an international challenge that demands attention at all levels of government. The calls to action to achieve sustainability have varied over the last few decades. For example, in the 1970s and 1980s attention was focused on the need for environmental review and growth management strategies. In the 1990s the rhetoric shifted to smart growth and livable communities, and today, the issue has been reframed as advocates view sustainability through the lens of global warming and climate change. Regardless of the nomenclature, however, the end game is the same. While the United States as a whole speaks through …

Scholarly Works

This article is one in a series of annual updates on reported cases and opinions in the area of ethics and land use regulation, A number of themes emerged from the round of litigation in the last year.

The Neglect Of The Umbilical Cord: Ohio's Failure To Adequately Promote Banking Of Umbilical Cord Blood Stem Cells And The Need For New Legislation, Shannon Folger

Journal of Law and Health

Because current legislation, including OH H.B. 237, is insufficient in that it does not have the potential to significantly increase the number of cord blood donations, it will be necessary to enact legislation that is more demanding. Such legislation should be modeled after current "required request" organ donation laws, which mandate that health professionals actively pursue organ donations by expressly asking the family to consent to donation. Modeled after these laws, better legislation will not only require that state health departments generate information about donation opportunities, but also that health professionals then provide each maternity patient with materials about cord …

Discretion To Follow The Law: The Collision Of Ohio's Nursing Home Bill Of Rights With Ohio's Political Subdivision Tort Liability Act, Peter Traska Elk & Elk Co., Ltd., Katherine Knouff

Journal of Law and Health

The Ohio Political Subdivision Tort Liability Act confers general immunity on political subdivisions. Therefore, government owned homes seek to avoid liability by raising the defenses provided by the Ohio Political Subdivision Tort Liability Act, despite the resident's rights under the Nursing Home Bill of Rights. The result is that residents of government owned nursing homes have inferior remedies for the tortious acts of a county home's employees. The disparate treatment meted out to residents of county owned homes opens the Political Subdivision Act to another challenge: equal protection. The law formerly recognized that government actors taking part in the marketplace …

The Constitutionality Of Breed Discriminatory Legislation: A Summary, Joan E. Schaffner

GW Law Faculty Publications & Other Works

This chapter focuses on Toledo v. Tellings, an Ohio case dealing with breed-specific legislation that restricted a Toledo resident to owning one “vicious” dog, defined purely by breed as a pit bull. This case implicated numerous constitutional issues, including vagueness, procedural due process, equal protection, substantive due process, takings, and privileges and immunities. Although the Ohio Sixth Appellate District struck down the breed-specific legislation, the Ohio Supreme Court reversed, and I find this reversal at odds with the constitutional issues at play.
