The Phase-Out And Sunset Of Travel Restrictions In The International Health Regulations, Sarah R. Goldfarb
The Phase-Out And Sunset Of Travel Restrictions In The International Health Regulations, Sarah R. Goldfarb
Brooklyn Journal of International Law
Whether and to what extent travel restriction should be implemented during international infectious disease epidemics became a controversial issue, most recently, during the 2014 Ebola outbreak. The primary authority on the manner in which to respond to such epidemics is the International Health Regulations (IHR). The IHR is a treaty, established by the World Health Organization (WHO), which governs and coordinates international responses to international infectious disease epidemics. Despite the WHO's strong advisement to the contrary, many countries who were signatories to the IHR implemented travel bans and other types of travel restrictions to prevent the transmission of the disease …

Service Animals In Training And The Law: An Imperfect System., Darcie Magnuson
Service Animals In Training And The Law: An Imperfect System., Darcie Magnuson
The Scholar: St. Mary's Law Review on Race and Social Justice
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) does not provide protection for service animals in training anywhere in public places, including workplaces and government buildings. Individual state statutes may or may not grant service animals in training access to places of public accommodations, public buildings, or places of employment. Similarly, neither the Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA) nor the Fair Housing Act (FHA) Amendments afford rights and privileges in air transportation and housing, respectively, to service animals in training. Without service animals, individuals with disabilities would not be able to equally access society or fully participate in many activities. However, without …
Of Frightened Horses And Autonomous Vehicles: Tort Law And Its Assimilation Of Innovations, Kyle Graham
Of Frightened Horses And Autonomous Vehicles: Tort Law And Its Assimilation Of Innovations, Kyle Graham
Faculty Publications
This symposium contribution considers five recurring themes in the application of tort law to new technologies. First, the initial batch of cases presented to courts may be atypical of later lawsuits that implicate the innovation, yet relate rules with surprising persistence. Second, these cases may be identified, and resolved, by reference to analogies that rely on similarities in form, and which do not wear well over time. Third, it may be difficult to isolate the unreasonable risks generated by an innovation from the benefits it is perceived to offer. Fourth, potential claims by early adopters of the technology may be …

Germs On A Plane: Legal Protections Afforded To International Air Travelers And Governments In The Event Of A Suspected Or Actual Contagious Passenger And Proposals To Strengthen Them, Alexandra R. Harrington
Germs On A Plane: Legal Protections Afforded To International Air Travelers And Governments In The Event Of A Suspected Or Actual Contagious Passenger And Proposals To Strengthen Them, Alexandra R. Harrington
Journal of Law and Health
This article calls for the creation of an international public health do-not-fly list akin to those used by Interpol and the United States government as a stop-gap measure to ensure that passengers who have been diagnosed with infectious diseases or have been exposed to infectious diseases are unable to travel until it is established that it is medically safe for them to do so. This article has also called for amendments to the IHR and the Vienna Conventions to clarify the rights and obligations of travelers and states in the event of a suspected or established case of infectious disease …
Libya And The Aerial Incident At Lockerbie: What Lessons For International Extradition Law?, Christopher C. Joyner, Wayne P. Rothbaum
Libya And The Aerial Incident At Lockerbie: What Lessons For International Extradition Law?, Christopher C. Joyner, Wayne P. Rothbaum
Michigan Journal of International Law
Does concerted action taken by the U.N. Security Council against Libya bolster the international extradition process? Or do these resolutions represent little more than a new coat of legal paint on the same old political problems? This article seeks to answer these questions through an analysis of the nature of terrorism, the customary bases for jurisdiction and extradition, and the validity of Libya's refusal to surrender the Lockerbie suspects.

Keeping "The Wild" Out Of "The Wild Blue Yonder": Preventing Terrorist Attacks Against International Flights In Civil Aviation, David L. Glassman
Keeping "The Wild" Out Of "The Wild Blue Yonder": Preventing Terrorist Attacks Against International Flights In Civil Aviation, David L. Glassman
Penn State International Law Review
This comment begins by discussing the ineffectiveness of ex post facto measures in controlling terrorism. It then describes the preventive - or "pre-attack" - measures which nations and their air carriers should take in order to secure aircraft prior to departure. In this respect, the annexes amending the Convention on International Civil Aviation will be emphasized insofar as they relate to aviation security precautions. Finally, the comment focuses upon the methods by which states can enforce the provisions of the annexes against one another.
The Constitutionality Of Airport Searches, Michigan Law Review
The Constitutionality Of Airport Searches, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
This Note will discuss airport searches in comparison to several situations in which the courts have found that the requirements of the fourth amendment do not apply or are satisfied even in the absence of a warrant: border searches, administrative searches, stop-and-frisk searches, and searches under express or implied consent. None of these are perfectly analogous to the present airport procedures. Therefore, if airport searches are to be allowed, either the procedures must be modified to fit the established exceptions, or a new exception to the warrant requirement of the fourth amendment must be created.
Constitutional Law-Taking Private Property For Public Use-Control Of Airspace, Robert K. Eifler S.Ed.
Constitutional Law-Taking Private Property For Public Use-Control Of Airspace, Robert K. Eifler S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
The airspace above land is the object of at least five conflicting claims of right. The owner of the land beneath it claims the right to use it and at least a limited right to prevent its use. The aviator demands the right to fly through it. The airport operator, whether governmental agent or private individual, has an interest in keeping it free from obstructions. The state claims sovereignty over it. The federal government claims the power to control it for the purposes of interstate commerce as well as international relations.
