Adr Through A Cultural Lens: How Cultural Values Shape Our Disputing Processes, Julia Ann Gold

Journal of Dispute Resolution

I arrived for my second Nepali language class on time, but the teacher kept chatting about inconsequential things. I was paying by the hour, and we had already spent 25 minutes talking about nothing! A week later, I received an invitation to an art exhibit. The location was "Royal Museum," so that is where I went, only to find an empty building and no people. What had I missed? In my first meeting with the Dean of the Law Campus, we talked about trekking, the upcoming religious holidays, his visit to Seattle two years ago, relatives in the United States, …

The Bench Trial: A More Beneficial Alternative To Arbitration Of Title Vii Claims, Dianne Larocca Apr 2005

The Bench Trial: A More Beneficial Alternative To Arbitration Of Title Vii Claims, Dianne Larocca

In this Article, I describe the advantages and disadvantages of arbitration agreements for employers and employees. I then explore whether pre-dispute mandatory arbitration agreements through which employees waive their right to a jury trial and agree to a bench trial of their Title VII claims are a more beneficial alternative. …

As such, Texas has welcomed the construction boom and has enacted statutes to accommodate further industry growth. Texas’ first legislative response came in the form of the Residential Construction Liability Act (RCLA). The RCLA alleviated liability for builders incurred under the Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA). In 2003, the Texas Legislature continued to legislate in favor of builders by passing the Texas Residential …
