The Ferrini Doctrine: Abrogating State Immunity From Civil Suit For Jus Cogens Violations, Natasha Marusja Saputo Jul 2012

The Ferrini Doctrine: Abrogating State Immunity From Civil Suit For Jus Cogens Violations, Natasha Marusja Saputo

University of Miami National Security & Armed Conflict Law Review

Article 10 of the Italian Constitution incorporates generally recognized principles of international law. Thus, State immunity from civil suit in the domestic courts of another State——a principle generally recognized in international law——would apply in Italy. However, the protection of fundamental human rights is another generally recognized principle in international law and the ostensible conflict between these two principles has resulted in a series of controversial rulings issued by the Italian Court of Cassation. These rulings allow for the abrogation of State immunity from civil suit in the domestic courts of another State for alleged violations of jus cogens or peremptory …


Reevaluating Itar: A Holistic Approach To Regaining Critical Market Share While Simultaneously Attaining Robust National Security, Justin Levine Jul 2012

Reevaluating Itar: A Holistic Approach To Regaining Critical Market Share While Simultaneously Attaining Robust National Security, Justin Levine

University of Miami National Security & Armed Conflict Law Review

This note considers the application of the International Traffic and Arms Regulations (““ITAR””) framework and proposes statutory and policy modifications to promote both national security and industry growth. ITAR is the regulatory framework that controls the export of munitions and defense technologies from the United States. However, as applied, free trade is now grossly over-regulated to such an extent that both significant market share and industry opportunity have been lost and national security itself has simultaneously been threatened. Due to heavy restrictions, many previous industry partners are now looking elsewhere for trade and systematically avoiding the United States for inclusion …


Major League Security: Overcoming Legal Challenges Of Sporting Event Security Systems, Jorge Martinez Jul 2012

Major League Security: Overcoming Legal Challenges Of Sporting Event Security Systems, Jorge Martinez

University of Miami National Security & Armed Conflict Law Review

This article will discuss emerging threats to major sporting events and suggest methods to defend fans and athletes through strengthening security systems and procedures. One problem with strengthening security systems, however, is that in many cases, increased security means less personal privacy. This article will briefly review security measures that have traditionally been in place, juxtapose newly developed security measures, assess the effectiveness and constitutionality of each measure, and propose a working security system to be used at such events. Ultimately, an ideal security system of the future will have to incorporate developments in various fields and will take time …


Habeas Corpus Outside U.S. Territory: Omar V. Geren And Its Effects On Americans Abroad, John Wright Jul 2012

Habeas Corpus Outside U.S. Territory: Omar V. Geren And Its Effects On Americans Abroad, John Wright

University of Miami National Security & Armed Conflict Law Review

The contention between habeas corpus rights and national security interests has been ongoing since the ratification of the U.S. Constitution. History proves that this relationship becomes especially precarious during times of conflict, from the U.S. Civil War and continuing through the War on Terrorism, which began in 2001.

This paper focuses on one of the most recent limitations placed on the right of habeas corpus as determined by the federal judiciary: that a writ of habeas corpus will not stay the transfer of a U.S. citizen to a foreign sovereign’’s authorities to face charges for alleged crimes committed within that …

The Post-Iqbal State Of Pleading: An Argument Opposing A Uniform National Pleading Regime, Mark W. Payne Jul 2012

The Post-Iqbal State Of Pleading: An Argument Opposing A Uniform National Pleading Regime, Mark W. Payne

University of Miami Business Law Review

The U.S. Supreme Court's 2009 decision in Ashcroft v. Iqbal placed a squeeze on the once touted liberal Federal Rules of Civil Procedure by requiring judges to consider the veracity of potential plaintiffs' federal claims in light of Iqbal's new heightened pleading standard. This article examines post-Iqbal pleading standards across United States jurisdictions and argues that states should exert caution before choosing to adopt Iqbal's new "plausibility" standard, and if they elect to modify their pleading standards in light of the Iqbal decision, they should also carefully contemplate their method of adoption.

The Embedded Epistemologist: Dispatches From The Legal Front, Susan Haack Jun 2012

The Embedded Epistemologist: Dispatches From The Legal Front, Susan Haack

Articles

In ordinary circumstances, we can assess the worth of evidence well enough without benefit of any theory; but when evidence is especially complex, ambiguous, or emotionally disturbing-as it often is in legal contexts-epistemological theory may be helpful. A legal fact-finder is asked to determine whether the proposition that the defendant is guilty, or is liable, is established to the required degree of proof by the [admissible] evidence presented; i.e., to make an epistemological appraisal. The foundherentist theory developed in Evidence and Inquiry can help us understand what this means; and reveals that degrees of proof cannot be construed as mathematical …
