Judicial Influence On The Duty To Consult And Accommodate, Andrew Green
Judicial Influence On The Duty To Consult And Accommodate, Andrew Green
Osgoode Hall Law Journal
The duty to consult and accommodate has increasingly become front and centre in a wide range of resource and development projects and the related litigation. The Supreme Court of Canada has stated that it seeks to foster negotiation and limit litigation through its approach to the duty. This article examines, from a theoretical perspective, whether the Court is furthering this objective. It builds on a simple model of How the legislature and courts interact in the administrative law context and discusses how the relationship changes with the addition of Indigenous peoples seeking enforcing the government’s constitutional duty to consult and …
“Help Is The Sunny Side Of Control”: The Medical Model Of Gambling And Social Context Evidence In Canadian Personal Bankruptcy Law, Anna J. Lund
Osgoode Hall Law Journal
At the start of the twentieth century, people who gambled excessively were viewed as morally deviant. Now, they are viewed as suffering from a medical disorder. Legal actors incorporate this medical approach to gamblers into how they apply the law. This shift from a moral to a medical model reorients actors from punishing gamblers to helping them, and thus can be characterized as a positive, humane development. Yet the medical model has drawbacks too. The medical model can be used to justify paternalistic and potentially harmful interventions in the lives of individuals, and it obscures the social context in which …
Industry Of Anonymity: Inside The Business Of Cybercrime, By Jonathan Lusthaus, Robert Van De Mark
Industry Of Anonymity: Inside The Business Of Cybercrime, By Jonathan Lusthaus, Robert Van De Mark
Osgoode Hall Law Journal
In Industry of Anonymity: Inside the Business of Cybercrime, Jonathan Lusthaus attempts to demystify the increasingly sophisticated business of cybercrime and examine how it has matured into a large, profit-driven industry. Through interviews with hundreds of subjects involved in the cybercrime industry in varying capacities, Lusthaus has sought to draw a map that, by showing how seemingly disparate elements in the industry relate to one another, can better explain how the cybercrime industry functions. In particular, Lusthaus strives to produce a better understanding of the people behind cybercrime and the contexts in which they operate. By doing so, the book …
Whipping Up A Storm: Trying To Make Sense Of Constitutional Law, Allan C. Hutchinson
Whipping Up A Storm: Trying To Make Sense Of Constitutional Law, Allan C. Hutchinson
Osgoode Hall Law Journal
The effort to make sense out of what the judges of any Supreme Court do is all the more pressing and acute in times of political turbulence. Lawrence Lessig’s Fidelity and Constraint offers itself as one such effort to distinguish constitutional decision-making from “the ad hoc in politics” by its reliance upon principled and neutral reasons; it is the judges’ detached and professional nature that underwrites their democratic legitimacy and institutional commitment. This review challenges those claims and demonstrates how Lessig’s analysis does more to undermine that project than achieve it.
Humans As A Service: The Promise And Perils Of Work In The Gig Economy, By Jeremias Prassl, Ara Dungca
Humans As A Service: The Promise And Perils Of Work In The Gig Economy, By Jeremias Prassl, Ara Dungca
Osgoode Hall Law Journal
The gig economy is “the collection of markets that match providers to consumers on a gig basis in support of on-demand commerce.” Some of the most recognizable examples in Canada are Lyft and Uber. In a September 2017 report by the Bank of Montreal on the gig economy, it was estimated that 2.18 million Canadians were categorized as temporary workers, which include people who take on term, contract, or temporary employment, such as freelancers. This report defines a gig as “any job, especially one of short or uncertain duration.” A recent Ontario Court of Appeal Case, Heller v Uber Technologies …
Paradises Lost? The Constitutional Politics Of “Indian” Enfranchisement In Canada, 1857–1900, Coel Kirkby
Paradises Lost? The Constitutional Politics Of “Indian” Enfranchisement In Canada, 1857–1900, Coel Kirkby
Osgoode Hall Law Journal
Enfranchisement was the legal process for an individual or community to end their legal status as “Indians” under the Indian Act. The Canadian government hoped it would break up bands before assimilating them into settler society. This article aims to excavate the untold story of this attempt to extinguish special “Indian” status in the nineteenth century. It first traces enfranchisement as part of a Victorian discourse of civilization and as a specific Canadian legal process for the assimilation of “Indian” subjects. It then uses new archival sources to tell the untold story of the politics of enfranchisement over the second …
Family Status Discrimination: Caregiving And The Prima Facie Case, Melanie Vipond, Benjamin Oliphant
Family Status Discrimination: Caregiving And The Prima Facie Case, Melanie Vipond, Benjamin Oliphant
Osgoode Hall Law Journal
The growing number of dual-income families with young children and ageing parents has led to a corresponding increase in the number of accommodation requests relating to childcare and eldercare. Determining whether an employer’s denial of such a request constitutes prima facie discrimination on the basis of family status has bedeviled adjudicators, resulting in various “tests” being enunciated across Canada. While some scholars and adjudicators have suggested that these “tests” are inconsistent with the test set out by the Supreme Court of Canada in Moore v. British Columbia and place a uniquely high burden on claimants to establish prima facie discrimination, …
Race On The Brain, By Jonathan Kahn, Shruti Ramesh
Race On The Brain, By Jonathan Kahn, Shruti Ramesh
Osgoode Hall Law Journal
Canadians and Americans alike are often reluctant to honestly confront our respective nations’ histories of racism and discrimination. Unflinchingly describing a legacy of colonialism, genocide of Indigenous peoples, and multigenerational slavery, is a great deal more uncomfortable than the academically “safe” analyses advanced by critical race theory. Simply put, academic conversations around “racism” are increasingly being replaced with conversations about “bias.” This is what legal scholar Jonathan Kahn addresses in his book Race on the Brain: What Implicit Bias Gets Wrong about the Struggle for Racial Justice. Kahn’s book is a response to a trend toward scientism within the interdisciplinary …
A Case For Zoning, Christopher Serkin
A Case For Zoning, Christopher Serkin
Notre Dame Law Review
Due to a remarkable convergence of criticisms from both the right and the left, zoning is under more sustained attack than at any time in the last seventy-five years. A consensus is building that zoning is what ails America. Simultaneously, the traditional justifications for zoning, like separating incompatible uses, have become increasingly anachronistic in an age of mixed-use development and a desire for vibrant, dynamic places. This Article offers an updated defense of zoning, and in particular density regulations. Today, local governments deploy zoning not primarily to keep industry (or apartment buildings) out of residential neighborhoods, but to preserve community …
Fraudulently Induced Confessions, Michael J. Zydney Mannheimer
Fraudulently Induced Confessions, Michael J. Zydney Mannheimer
Notre Dame Law Review
The jurisprudence on the use of police deception during interrogations is singularly unhelpful. Police may deceive in order to induce a suspect to confess, the courts tell us, unless they go too far. Police are permitted, for example, to feign sympathy for the suspect, lie about the existence of incriminating evidence, and falsely downplay the seriousness of the offense under investigation. But when police engage in other forms of deception, such as by offering false promises of leniency or misrepresenting the suspect’s Miranda rights, courts will balk and declare the resulting confession coerced. Yet neither courts nor commentators have successfully …
Substantive Remedies, Hanoch Dagan, Avihay Dorfman
Substantive Remedies, Hanoch Dagan, Avihay Dorfman
Notre Dame Law Review
Often, private law remedies enforce or vindicate infringed underlying rights. Substantive remedies are different. Substantive remedies do not aim at restoring these rights; nor do they seek to change them. Instead, substantive remedies adjust the remedial response for a right violation so as to ensure post-wrong justice. They require the law of remedies not merely to look back, but rather to take a second look at the parties’ post-wrong situation. At times, such a second look affects the type of remedy awarded (damages in lieu of injunctive relief); in other cases—for instance, the tort doctrine of crushing liability—it imposes a …
Chevron Abroad, Kent Barnett, Lindsey Vinson
Chevron Abroad, Kent Barnett, Lindsey Vinson
Notre Dame Law Review
This Article presents our comparative findings of how courts in five other countries review agency statutory interpretation. These comparisons permit us to understand and participate better in current debates about the increasingly controversial Chevron doctrine in American law, whereby courts defer to reasonable agency interpretations of statutes that an agency administers. Those debates concern, among other things, Chevron’s purported inevitability, functioning, and normative propriety. Our inquiry into judicial review in Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia provides useful and unexpected findings. Chevron, contrary to some scholars’ views, is not inevitable because only one of these countries …
Taxing Local Energy Externalities, Hannah J. Wiseman
Taxing Local Energy Externalities, Hannah J. Wiseman
Notre Dame Law Review
There is a fundamental problem of scale in the governance of industrial development. For some of the fastest-growing U.S. industries, the negative impacts of development fall primarily at the local level, and the benefits tend to accrue more broadly to states and the federal government. These governments accordingly have inadequate incentives to address the very localized negative externalities of development. Yet states also increasingly preempt most local control over some forms of development. This creates a regulatory void, in which state and federal regulations are inadequate, and local governments lack the power to use traditional Pigouvian tools such as regulation, …
Forgotten Federal-Missionary Partnerships: New Light On The Establishment Clause, Nathan S. Chapman
Forgotten Federal-Missionary Partnerships: New Light On The Establishment Clause, Nathan S. Chapman
Notre Dame Law Review
Americans have long debated whether the Establishment Clause permits the government to support education that includes religious instruction. Current doctrine permits states to do so by providing vouchers for private schools on a religiously neutral basis. Unlike most Establishment Clause doctrines, however, the Supreme Court did not build this one on a historical foundation. Rather, in cases from Everson v. Board of Education (1947) to Espinoza v. Montana Department of Revenue (2020), opponents of religious-school funding have claimed American history supports a strict rule of no-aid.
Yet the Court and scholars have largely ignored a practice that casts light on …
The Problem Of Foreign Convictions In U.S. Immigration Law, Geoff Cebula
The Problem Of Foreign Convictions In U.S. Immigration Law, Geoff Cebula
Notre Dame Law Review
Part I argues that the definition of “conviction” in the INA implicitly leaves room for courts to inquire into the procedural fairness underlying a foreign conviction. Part II surveys the traditional standards for evaluating the sufficiency of foreign convictions in the contexts of extradition and international comity, two areas where U.S. courts have had to decide when to honor foreign judgments for centuries. These longstanding criteria formed the background against which the INA definition was adopted and may provide guidance on how to apply this definition. Accordingly, Part III derives from this analysis suggestions for how the Department of State …
Constitutional Law's Conflicting Premises, Maxwell L. Stearns
Constitutional Law's Conflicting Premises, Maxwell L. Stearns
Notre Dame Law Review
Doctrinal inconsistency is constitutional law’s special feature and bug. Virtually every salient doctrinal domain presents major precedents operating in tension. Bodies of precedent are rarely abandoned simply because a newer strand makes an older one appear out of place. And when an earlier strand is redeployed or substituted, the once-newer strand likewise persists. This dynamic process tasks law students, often for the first time, with reconciling the seemingly irreconcilable.
These doctrinal phenomena share as their root cause dual persistent conflicting premises. Some examples: Standing protects congressional power to monitor the executive branch, or it limits congressional monitoring when the selected …
Enforcing A Wall Of Separation Between Big Business And State: Protection From Monopolies In State Constitutions, Alexandra K. Howell
Enforcing A Wall Of Separation Between Big Business And State: Protection From Monopolies In State Constitutions, Alexandra K. Howell
Notre Dame Law Review
The goal of this Note is not to convince the reader to care more about regulatory monopolies than private ones. In fact, it is not to talk about private antitrust law at all. Instead, the goal is to put today’s concern with monopolies in historical perspective. Part I traces the history of the antimonopoly spirit in the United States starting with the English tradition that was highly influential on the Founders. This Note then demonstrates that today’s concern with private monopolies comes from a shift that took place during the progressive era. In Part II, this Note highlights the role …
The Clean Air Act: How It Can Be Localized To Promote Both Environmental And Social Justice, Tate Kirk
The Clean Air Act: How It Can Be Localized To Promote Both Environmental And Social Justice, Tate Kirk
Seattle Journal of Technology, Environmental & Innovation Law
Legislators attempt to achieve intended goals by enacting laws that provide for regulatory enforcement. However, many times laws are unable to achieve their stated goals and in some ways may create new or exacerbate existing issues. Luckily, upon review, many of these issues can be fixed with quick modifications to either their implementation or enforcement mechanisms. In its current form, the Clean Air Act does not effectively account for differences in regional climate patterns, and, moreover, it perpetuates environmental injustice. If local governments were given more autonomy to enforce the Clean Air Act, they could shape its enforcement to more …
Fault Lines: An Empirical Legal Study Of California Secession, Bill Tomlinson, Andrew W. Torrance
Fault Lines: An Empirical Legal Study Of California Secession, Bill Tomlinson, Andrew W. Torrance
Seattle Journal of Technology, Environmental & Innovation Law
Over the last decade, multiple initiatives have proposed that California should secede from the United States. This article examines the legal aspects of California secession and integrates that analysis with findings from an empirical study of public perceptions of such secession. There is no provision in the United States Constitution allowing states, or other political or geographical units, to secede unilaterally. The Civil War was fought to uphold this principle, and the United States Supreme Court confirmed it in its 1869 Texas v. White decision. Nevertheless, numerous instances of secession, both legal and extralegal, have occurred across human history, and …
Mtsun, Llc V. Mont. Dep't Of Pub. Serv. Regulation, Ryan W. Frank
Mtsun, Llc V. Mont. Dep't Of Pub. Serv. Regulation, Ryan W. Frank
Public Land & Resources Law Review
MTSUN, LLC initiated negotiations for a power purchase agreement with NorthWestern Energy in September of 2015 for a potential solar energy facility in eastern Montana. In December of 2016, at an impasse in contract negotiations with NorthWestern, MTSUN filed a petition with the Montana Public Service Commission requesting that the agency exercise its statutory authority to set the terms of the contract for the proposed project. Following MTSUN’s petition, the PSC issued a series of orders and reconsiderations which ultimately reconfigured the entirety of the agreement, including the terms that the parties had previously agreed upon. After exhausting its administrative …

The Surprising Views Of Montesquieu And Tocqueville About Juries: Juries Empower Judges, Renée Lettow Lerner
The Surprising Views Of Montesquieu And Tocqueville About Juries: Juries Empower Judges, Renée Lettow Lerner
Louisiana Law Review
Both Montesquieu and Tocqueville thought that an independent judiciary was key to maintaining a moderate government of ordered liberty. But judicial power should not be exercised too openly, or the people would view judges as tyrannical. In Montesquieu's and Tocqueville's view, the jury was an excellent mask for the power of judges. Both Montesquieu and Tocqueville thought that popular juries had many weaknesses in deciding cases. But, as Tocqueville made clear, the firm guidance of the judge in instructions on law and comments on evidence could prevent juries from going astray and make the institution a "free school" for democracy. …
