The Constitutional Rights Of Public Employees: A Comment On The Inappropriate Uses Of An Old Analogy, William W. Van Alstyne
The Constitutional Rights Of Public Employees: A Comment On The Inappropriate Uses Of An Old Analogy, William W. Van Alstyne
Faculty Scholarship
Beginning with Justice Douglass's assertion that the State is bound in the same ways when acting as an employer as it is when acting as a governing body, this examination delves deeper to determine how this doctrine actually limits the government when it acts as an employer. This article endorses the theory of examining these limits not in the context of if the government is allowed to enforce them in the public sphere, but if the government may mandate such limits in the private sphere
Review Of Concerning Dissent And Civil Disobedience, By A. Fortas, Terrance Sandalow
Review Of Concerning Dissent And Civil Disobedience, By A. Fortas, Terrance Sandalow
Reviews
Noah Chomsky has written of Justice Fortas' essay that it "is not serious enough for extended discussion." It would be a mistake to dismiss the essay so lightly. The prestige of Justice Fortas' office almost inevitably will gain for the essay an audience it would not otherwise have had, among whom will be those who will confuse the office with the argument. For some this confusion will insulate the argument from criticism. For others it will tarnish the office.
The Demise Of The Right-Privilege Distinction In Constitutional Law, William W. Van Alstyne
The Demise Of The Right-Privilege Distinction In Constitutional Law, William W. Van Alstyne
Faculty Publications
The right-privilege distinction, as it appeared in an early statement by Justice Holmes, has long hampered individuals within the public sector in protecting themselves against arbitrary governmental action. In this article Professor Van Alstyne reviews the uses and misuses to which the "privilege" concept has been put and then examines those doctrines whose flanking attacks have gradually eroded its efficacy. But none of these doctrines comes to grips with Holmes' basic idea of a "privilege" to which substantive due process is inapplicable. Applying Holmes' own jurisprudence, the author argues that the concept of "privilege" is today no longer viable, and …

The Development Of The Right Of Assembly: A Current Socio-Legal Investigation, George P. Smith Ii
Scholarly Articles
It will be the purpose of this article to assay the historical evolution of the freedom of assembly, noting first its development in England and later in America and finally its current position in the twentieth century. Even though the rights of free speech, association, and religion are inescapably drawn into case discussions of freedom of assembly, effort will be made to confine the consideration to the pertinent assembly problems. In addition to considering the fundamental legal propositions embodied in this right, as well as its raison d'etre, thought and discussion will be given to the sociological interpretations of the …

Reason And Passion: The Constitutional Dialectic Of Free Speech And Obscenity, John M. Finnis
Reason And Passion: The Constitutional Dialectic Of Free Speech And Obscenity, John M. Finnis
Journal Articles
In recent obscenity cases, the Supreme Court has been attempting to define the constitutional meaning of "speech." This is not as banal a statement as it may seem, for there are critics, both on and off the Court, who think that the Court's task is to define "freedom."
Some advocate boundless freedom in this area. For them, obscenity raises no special problems of definition, and is simply an exercise of speech or press presenting dangers which are remote and disputable, rather than clear and present. From this point of view, the only relevant distinction is that between "speech" and "conduct." …

In an attempt to determine how the First Amendment may protect speakers’ rights to make inflammatory statements calling for violence against a sovereign, this article breaks down this larger question into three categories based on the speaker: the government, foreigners abroad, or American citizens.

Elfbrandt V. Russell: The Demise Of The Loyalty Oath, Jerold H. Israel
Elfbrandt V. Russell: The Demise Of The Loyalty Oath, Jerold H. Israel
Articles
In Elfbrandt v. Russell, the Supreme Court, in a 5-to-4 decision, declared unconstitutional Arizona's requirement of a loyalty oath from state employees. At first glance, Elfbrandt appears to be just another decision voiding a state loyalty oath on limited grounds relating to the specific language of the particular oath. Yet, several aspects of Mr. Justice Douglas' opinion for the majority suggest that Elfbrandt is really of far greater significance: it may sharply limit the scope and coverage of loyalty oaths generally and, indeed, may presage a ruling invalidating all such oaths. Of course, only the Supreme Court can determine this. …
The Meaning Of "Religion" In The School Prayer Cases, Charles E. Rice
The Meaning Of "Religion" In The School Prayer Cases, Charles E. Rice
Journal Articles
It is not my purpose here to discuss the possible extensions of the school prayer decisions. Rather, I am concerned only with the thought that the unqualified incorporation of the broad definition of religion into the establishment clause is perhaps the root fallacy in the Court's reasoning. In order to avoid an institutionalization of agnosticism as the official public religion of this country, the Court ought to acknowledge that nontheistic religions are not entitled to such unqualified recognition under the establishment clause as to bar even a simple governmental affirmation that in fact the Declaration of Independence is true when …

Obscenity In The Supreme Court: A Note On Jacobellis V. Ohio, Joseph O'Meara, Thomas L. Shaffer
Journal Articles
According to the opinion of Mr. Justice Brennan in Jacobellis v. Ohio, the Supreme Court itself must weigh and decide the issues in obscenity cases; it must decide whether the disputed material is obscene; and it must decide this according to the standards of the community, that is, the whole country—all 50 States. In other words, the Court must apply a national standard. This note is addressed primarily to that opinion.

The Law Of Obscenity And Military Practice, Harvey L. Zuckman
The Law Of Obscenity And Military Practice, Harvey L. Zuckman
Scholarly Articles
In recent years, problems surrounding the law of obscenity have become increasingly important and this development has resulted in a corresponding awareness of these problems by the courts, both state and federal. This awareness is now being extended into the military legal field. Two recent decisions, one by the United States Court of Military Appeals and the other by an Army board of review, have focused attention on the military's handling of obscenity problems under the Uniform Code of Military Justice. These recent decisions encompass issues occurring in civilian practice as well as issues peculiar to the military. Before any …
Compulsory Disclosure And The First Amendment - The Scope Of Judicial Review, Robert B. Kent
Compulsory Disclosure And The First Amendment - The Scope Of Judicial Review, Robert B. Kent
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
Involvement of the Supreme Court of the United States with highly charged public issues understandably occasions fresh debate concerning the proper role of the Court in determining questions of ultimate governmental power, in short, debate over the doctrine of judicial review.
As it is sometimes difficult for the judge to distinguish between what is unconstitutional and what is merely unwise, so it is difficult for the critic to disassociate his reaction to the results reached in a given case from his evaluation of the competence of the particular judicial performance. For some the failure to draw such a line robs …
Obscenity In The Mails, Harvey L. Zuckman
Obscenity In The Mails, Harvey L. Zuckman
Scholarly Articles
For nearly one hundred years the federal government has had as one of its functions the suppression of mail trade in obscene and pornographic matter. The first federal enactment in this field provided that the mailing of an obscene book, pamphlet, picture, print, or other publication with knowledge of its nature was a misdemeanor. The present postal obscenity law' dates back to 1873 and is sometimes referred to as the Comstock Law because of the support given its passage by the notorious Anthony Comstock, agent for the New York Society for the Suppression of Vice. While its original wording would …

Direct Restraint On The Press, Thomas L. Shaffer
Direct Restraint On The Press, Thomas L. Shaffer
Journal Articles
If I were to suggest that the public force be used to silence and hide sources of information about government as Mr. Cooper's committee, the Supreme Court of New Jersey, the United States Attorney General, and United States Senator Morse have suggested, I could begin with impressive authority. If I were to suggest nothing at all, as the organized press has done, I could begin with swelling rhetoric on the nature of man. But for my suggestion, direct restraint on the press, the only thing at hand is a fable, the story of a crisis that nearly prevented the marriage …

Recent Decision Note, Thomas L. Shaffer
Journal Articles
The Supreme Court of Colorado heard on appeal a tax dispute between the State Board of Equalization and Arapahoe County and, in announcing a decision in favor of the board, delayed publication of its formal written opinion for one week. At the time the decision was announced the opinion had been written, but had not been prepared for publication. Four days later respondent published an editorial in his newspaper attacking the decision, suggesting that it was inspired by political rather than legal considerations, and intimating that popular disapproval might result in a written opinion mitigating some of the decision's rigor. …

My Native Grounds, Royal W. France, Jack C. Lane

In 1957, near the end of his life, Royal France, a Rollins College economics professor for over twenty years, published My Native Grounds, a memoir that chronicles his life of service and commitment in the first half of the twentieth century. His story, which provides insights and perspectives on American life during the first half of the twentieth century that only an active participant could furnish, will appeal to scholars of both Florida and national histories, particularly those interested in American civil liberties history. This exceptionally well written, readable memoir will appeal as well to the general reader who has …

Freedom Of Inquiry Versus Authority: Some Legal Aspects, Joseph O'Meara
Freedom Of Inquiry Versus Authority: Some Legal Aspects, Joseph O'Meara
Journal Articles
I am to discuss some legal aspects of freedom of inquiry versus authority. It raises the issue of free speech; for inquiry is not free - it is confined and frustrated - if one must keep the fruits of inquiry to one's self. The contest between freedom and authority, even in a democracy, is an unequal contest, with the advantage on the side of authority; for authority has power and power has the drop on freedom. This is why eternal vigilance is the price of liberty. Freedom has its dangers. There is no doubt about that. The risk is still …
