Developments In Section Two Of The Sherman Act, Joseph P. Bauer
Developments In Section Two Of The Sherman Act, Joseph P. Bauer
Journal Articles
The issues raised in this Symposium are of great interest and timeliness. During the 1940s and 1950s, the Supreme Court explored the role of Section 2 of the Sherman Act as an essential element in the antitrust regime. As was true with antitrust generally, courts expanded the reach of Section 2, frequently concluding that the complained-of conduct constituted unlawful monopolization or attempts to monopolize, and approving injunctions forbidding the continuation of exclusionary or predatory practices and orders leading to the breakup of the monopoly itself. However, after the Grinnell decision in 1966, and the Otter Tail case almost a decade …
The Ethics Of Dissent And Friendship In The American Professions, Thomas L. Shaffer
The Ethics Of Dissent And Friendship In The American Professions, Thomas L. Shaffer
Journal Articles
Professional ethics is commonly understood as a creature of the establishment—the study of what the better doctors and lawyers do and impose on their colleagues. But this traditional notion of ethics conveys a message that professionals need only care for their clients or patients to a certain point whether it is the end of the professional’s expertise, the end of the contract or the end of an assigned task. But this ethical understanding loses the sense of professionals serving a community. This Article dissents from that common understanding of ethics and tells dissenting-professional stories that show professional ethics through the …
Religion And Procedure, Robert E. Rodes
Religion And Procedure, Robert E. Rodes
Journal Articles
God has no use for procedural rules since He knows the full truth and is able to exercise absolute justice simultaneously alongside complete mercy. This paper discusses the religious significance of legal rules of procedure in light of this truth. It finds that since we, unlike God, are inherently fallible, we are forced to implement procedures in the legal pursuit of our goals of truth, justice, and mercy. These procedures remain imperfect in implementing these goals, as compromises must often be made between competing values such as mercy on one hand and justice on the other. Nevertheless, though legal procedure …
The "Natural Law Tradition", John M. Finnis
The "Natural Law Tradition", John M. Finnis
Journal Articles
This "tradition of natural law theory" has three main features: First, critique and rejection of ethical scepticism, dogmatism and conventionalism; Second, clarification of the methodology of descriptive and explanatory social theories (e.g., political science, economics, jurisprudence .... ); Third, critique and rejection of aggregative conceptions of the right and the just (e.g., consequentialism, utilitarianism, wealth-maximization, "proportionalism"...).
Labor Law Preemption: Procedure And Substance: An Analysis Of International Longshoremen's Association V. Davis, Barbara J. Fick
Labor Law Preemption: Procedure And Substance: An Analysis Of International Longshoremen's Association V. Davis, Barbara J. Fick
Journal Articles
This article previews the Supreme Court case Int'l Longshoremen's Ass'n v. Davis, 476 U.S. 380 (1986). The author expected the Court to address 2 issues: (1) at what point in a case must the issue of federal preemption be raised?; and (2) to what extent is state law preempted by federal labor law?
The Unity Of Law & Morality: A Refutation Of Legal Positivism (Book Review), John H. Robinson
The Unity Of Law & Morality: A Refutation Of Legal Positivism (Book Review), John H. Robinson
Journal Articles
Professor Robinson provides a critique of M.J. Detmold’s book, The Unity of Law & Mortality: A Refutation of Legal Positivism. He argues that the book is flawed for failure to present his adversary’s position and for failure to explain the reasons for embracing an ontological perspective towards all ethics. Despite its ambition, the argument does not get off the ground.
The Profession As A Moral Teacher, Thomas L. Shaffer
The Profession As A Moral Teacher, Thomas L. Shaffer
Journal Articles
Professional ethics is commonly understood as the standards listed in codes. But ethical codes that are removed from one’s character and the practice of the profession are corrupting. Rather, ethics are properly taught through the profession as a moral teacher. This Article argues that professional stories that instruct on real life experiences and one’s character better educate lawyers and doctors on ethical standards. Sound ethical codes in the profession are those which depend on character.

Present At The Creation? A Critical Guide To Weeks V. United States And Its Progeny, Gerard V. Bradley
Present At The Creation? A Critical Guide To Weeks V. United States And Its Progeny, Gerard V. Bradley
Journal Articles
The Supreme Court in Weeks v. United States held that upon a pretrial motion for return of property illegally seized, a court must order restitution, even if government is thereby deprived of its use at a subsequent trial. Many have characterized the Court’s decision as being grounded on a principled rather than empirical basis and as supporting the principle of exclusion. This Article critically examines Weeks to gauge the validity of the principled basis theories that Justice Day arguably advances as defenses to the rule in his opinion. Although a principled rationale underlies the decision in Weeks, it does …
The Struggle For Judicial Independence In Antebellum North Carolina: The Story Of Two Judges, Walter F. Pratt
The Struggle For Judicial Independence In Antebellum North Carolina: The Story Of Two Judges, Walter F. Pratt
Journal Articles
The Supreme Court of North Carolina is an anomaly among state courts in the antebellum years. In a period dominated by democratic reforms of state government, the court did not merely survive unscathed it actually increased its independence. The remarkable success of this court is largely attributable to the personal reputations and political acumen of two of its judges, Thomas Ruffin and William Gaston. Without those two men it is likely that the Supreme Court would have been abolished in a wave of democratic reforms that peaked in North Carolina with the constitutional amendments of 1835.

Reverend Michael D. Mccafferty, C.S.C., David T. Link
Journal Articles
This comment pays tribute to our beloved Father Mike who served as both a priest and a professor. Father Mike excelled at his profession of teaching law, not only by his ability to read a class to determine how to best ensure that students acquire a solid understanding of the substantive law as well as a mastery of the analytical skills, but also by his ability to counsel students. He was a source of faith and strength to our community. He will be greatly missed and remembered.
Dogmatomachy - A "Privatization" Theory Of The Religion Clause Cases, Gerard V. Bradley
Dogmatomachy - A "Privatization" Theory Of The Religion Clause Cases, Gerard V. Bradley
Journal Articles
In the wake of Everson v. Board of Education, the Supreme Court has enforced a scheme of privatizing religion. However, this privatization scheme is met with criticism. One such criticism is this Article’s proposition that this scheme destroys religious consciousness in order to stymie religious factions. Through an examination of the normative view of privatization and its application to recent cases, the Author argues that hostility to religious consciousness is the denial of religious liberty as it reduces religion from an objective truth to a subjective preference.
Levinson Builds The Kingdom: Comment On "Professing Law", Thomas L. Shaffer
Levinson Builds The Kingdom: Comment On "Professing Law", Thomas L. Shaffer
Journal Articles
This Article takes the perspective that the professed law is an idol. As such, it is false worship, which is led by false priests, and is rationalized by false prophets. Professor Shaffer proposes that those who believe in the will of God are presented with two tasks. First, one must tear down this idol, and secondly, one must then build the Kingdom. He focuses his discussion on how one can build the Kingdom, and examines the viability of a Kingdom built upon constitutionalism, citizenship, and community.
The Character Of A Partner's Distributive Share Under The "Substantial Economic Effect" Regulation, Alan Gunn
The Character Of A Partner's Distributive Share Under The "Substantial Economic Effect" Regulation, Alan Gunn
Journal Articles
Partnership income and deductions are allocated according to the amount and the character of each partner's distributive share. This article examines the ways in which the section 704(b) regulations apply the "substantial economic effect" test to character allocations. It argues that it is important to distinguish allocations of character from allocations of amounts to understand these regulations. This is because tests that the regulations apply to character issues have to do with source-measurement correspondence and proration, while amounts are determined according to economic effect in the capital account sense. Although the regulations' rules for character allocations purport to define "substantiality," …
Imagining The Past And Remembering The Future: The Supreme Court's History Of The Establishment Clause, Gerard V. Bradley
Imagining The Past And Remembering The Future: The Supreme Court's History Of The Establishment Clause, Gerard V. Bradley
Journal Articles
Our Framers through the Establishment Clause sought to prevent the government from preferring one religious sect to another. However, the Supreme Court in Everson v. Board of Education abandoned that meaning of nonestablishment and created a general prohibition on all nondiscriminatory aid to religion, a decision later reinforced in Lemon v. Kurtzman. This Article discusses the Founder’s worldview and looks at other Establishment Clause cases to illustrate that the historical evidence is inconsistent with Everson. Rather, the founders intended to assure that religion would be aided only on a nondiscriminatory, or sect-neutral, basis and does not stand for …
