The article is devoted to the research of the constitutional legal concept by Louis Brandeis - the outstanding American man of law, Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court.

Brandeis was possible to become successful in asserting the workers social and labor rights that directly have not been fixed in the United States Constitution. The “Brandeis Brief” became the essential contribution to USA procedural law. Brandeis was a supporter of the “Living Constitution” conception that is based on the idea of social changes, evolutions of the …

The End Of Originalism, Jeffrey M. Shaman
The End Of Originalism, Jeffrey M. Shaman
Jeffrey M. Shaman
This essay maintains that originalism—the idea that the Constitution should be interpreted according to its original meaning--is nearing its demise. Ironically, the beginning of the end of originalism may have been prompted by the Supreme Court’s decision in District of Columbia v. Heller, marking the first time that a majority of the Court signed onto an opinion emphatically taking an originalist slant. Heller may represent the apogee of originalism and, because it exposes the fundamental flaws of originalism, may also mark the beginning of its decline. Originalism is a radical departure from the Supreme Court’s well-established jurisprudence of a living …

The right of a foreign national to contact his or her consulate upon arrest or detention in another country has been described as a fundamental and indispensible human right. Yet United States authorities have repeatedly failed to provide foreign nationals and their consulates with notice as required by law. This failure is evidenced by the explosion in litigation of consular notification rights in recent years.
This article explores some of the most interesting legal questions that are being raised in the area of consular notification rights. Drawing on the experiences and perspectives of three attorneys, member of the consular staff …
Forfeiture Of The Right To Counsel: A Doctrine Unhinged From The Constitution, Stephen A. Gerst
Forfeiture Of The Right To Counsel: A Doctrine Unhinged From The Constitution, Stephen A. Gerst
Stephen A Gerst
The Sixth Amendment right to an attorney is so fundamental that the United States Supreme Court has carefully developed requirements to ensure that an indigent defendant does not go to trial in any criminal case where there is a possibility of a deprivation of freedom without an attorney unless there is an affirmative waiver of the right to counsel on the record. However, the Supreme Court has not addressed what the record must show for finding that a defendant has lost his right to counsel as a result of the defendant's own misconduct toward the court or the defendant's attorney. …
Who Watches The Watchmen? 'Vigilant Doorkeeping,' The Alien Tort Statute, & Possible Reform, Keith A. Petty
Who Watches The Watchmen? 'Vigilant Doorkeeping,' The Alien Tort Statute, & Possible Reform, Keith A. Petty
Keith A. Petty
The Alien Tort Statute (ATS) allows alien plaintiffs to file civil actions in U.S. district courts for torts violating the law of nations or U.S. treaties. After the 2nd Circuit’s Filartiga decision in 1980, the debate began as to whether the ATS was a useful tool against human rights violators or an intrusion into U.S. foreign relations. In 2004, the Supreme Court in Sosa v. Alvarez-Machain resolved some of the questions left open by Filartiga.
Sosa concluded that ATS claims must be limited to law of nations violations as well defined as those recognized in 1789. The Court tasked the …
