A Problem Of Remedy: Responding To Treasury's (Lack Of) Compliance With Administrative Procedure Act Rulemaking Requirements, Kristin Hickman Jan 2008

A Problem Of Remedy: Responding To Treasury's (Lack Of) Compliance With Administrative Procedure Act Rulemaking Requirements, Kristin Hickman

Articles

In earlier work, I found that more than 40% of Treasury regulations studied are susceptible to legal challenge for their failure to satisfy Administrative Procedure Act rulemaking requirements. Given this finding, why is it that taxpayers rarely raise such claims? The article explores this question and focuses particularly on statutory and doctrinal limitations on pre-enforcement judicial review in the tax context and their role in further limiting post-enforcement challenges. Although the article proposes ways in which the courts could relax the limitations on pre-enforcement judicial review in tax cases, the article also acknowledges that the courts are unlikely to change …

The Frontier Of Eminent Domain, Alexandra Klass Jan 2008

The Frontier Of Eminent Domain, Alexandra Klass

Articles

The Supreme Court's 2005 decision in Kelo v. City of New London brought the issues of takings and public use into the national spotlight. A groundswell of opposition to government-initiated 'economic development takings' the Court deemed a public use under the Fifth Amendment led to eminent domain reform legislation in over 30 states. Many people are surprised to learn, however, that another type of economic development taking is alive and well in many western states that are rich in natural resources. In those states, oil, gas, and mining companies have the power of eminent domain under state constitutions or state …


Rethinking Trademark Fair Use, William Mcgeveran Jan 2008

Rethinking Trademark Fair Use, William Mcgeveran

Articles

The ever-expanding scope and strength of trademark rights has caused justifiable fears of a threat to free expression. Until now, however, concerned scholars generally focused on perfecting the substance of legal rules that balance free speech against other goals. This effort is misplaced because most cases raising these issues in recent years ended in judicial decisions that favored speech. The real danger arises from the procedural structure of trademark law's various fair use doctrines, which generate excessive ambiguity and prolong litigation before ever reaching such positive outcomes. Resulting administrative costs discourage speakers from using trademarks expressively in the first place, …

Wipo-Wto Relations And The Future Of Global Intellectual Property Norms, Ruth Okediji Jan 2008

Wipo-Wto Relations And The Future Of Global Intellectual Property Norms, Ruth Okediji

Articles

The intense scholarly debate about the effects of harmonized global intellectual property (IP) rules under the TRIPS Agreement has yet to consider what role an appropriate organizational framework should play in facilitating development of IP norms to address new global challenges. The prevailing assumption has been that the norm-setting role of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) will remain unchanged despite the primacy of the TRIPS Agreement and the explicit mandate of the WTO for global IP regulation. Indeed, with respect to the supply of public goods, only the WTO - not WIPO - has the formal legal mandate to …

Takings And Trespass: Trespass Liability For Precondemnation Entries, Ann Burkhart Jan 2008

Takings And Trespass: Trespass Liability For Precondemnation Entries, Ann Burkhart

Articles

When the government, a utility company, or another entity with the power of eminent domain enters land before acquiring it, the courts are extremely divided about whether the landowner can sue for trespass or only for inverse condemnation. A court's decision on this issue has tremendous practical implications. For example, it substantially affects the remedies that are available to the landowner, including its right to recover the property. The court's decision also has significant public policy implications because it involves the balance between government sovereignty over land and protection of private property rights. eminent domain, takings, inverse condemnation, trespass, government …
