Local Government Notice: Disclosure Of Public Officials' Property Interest, Georgia State University Law Review
Georgia State University Law Review
The Act creates O.C.G.A. 36-67A-1--36-67A-4. O.C.G.A. 36-67A-1 and 36-67A-2 provide for disclosure by local government officials of property interests which the official, members of the official's family, or business entities in which the official is involved may have when the property is affected by proposed rezoning actions. O.C.G.A. 36-67A-3 mandates similar disclosure of gifts or campaign contributions in excess of $250 by applicants for rezoning. O.C.G.A. 36-67A-4 provides for misdemeanor punishment for violation of either provision.
Note On General Conclusion - 1986, Wendy J. Gordon
Note On General Conclusion - 1986, Wendy J. Gordon
Scholarship Chronologically
The burden of the first part of this paper has been to suggest that tort law provides us no self-justifying notion of "wrongs" by which we can allocate rights and duties. The burden of the second part of this paper has been to suggest that contract law's notion of "consent" is similarly unable to provide justification for any particular system of rights. How would one go about constructing a theory by which to evaluate whether a given property system could be justified? A full answer to that question is surely outside the scope of this paper, but some basic points …
Note On Re Article On Definition Of Tort/Property - 1986, Wendy J. Gordon
Note On Re Article On Definition Of Tort/Property - 1986, Wendy J. Gordon
Scholarship Chronologically
Some distinctions in the law are fairly clear. For example, we seem to think that bad actions deserve to be punished, actions which are not personally blameworthy should not be punished, and that injuries to innocent persons should be compensated. But there are many instances in which these two goals cannot be simultaneously served. There we partially separate them, placing each in its own primary area of law. For those instances in which a bad action occurs and no one is injured, the criminal law has a remedy (the law of attempts). For those instances in which an innocent party …

Miotke V. City Of Spokane: Nuisance Or Inverse Condemnation—Theories For Government Environmental Liability, Gary L. Baker
Miotke V. City Of Spokane: Nuisance Or Inverse Condemnation—Theories For Government Environmental Liability, Gary L. Baker
Seattle University Law Review
A recent decision by the Washington State Supreme Court, Miotke v. City of Spokane, may broadly affect the right to and type of recovery that will be available to persons whose property rights are infringed either by an agent of the state or by private parties. Miotke involved the dumping of untreated sewage into a river, with the sewage flowing into a lake and interfering with lakefront property owners' enjoyment of their property. The court in Miotke faced a set of claims in property, tort, and state environmental law. The court recognized the significance of its decision and the …

Widow And The Sperm: The Law Of Post-Mortem Insemination, E. Donald Shapiro, Benedene Sonnenblick
Widow And The Sperm: The Law Of Post-Mortem Insemination, E. Donald Shapiro, Benedene Sonnenblick
Journal of Law and Health
Just as there are moral and ethical implication in permitting the widow to use a sperm deposit for AIH, so are there moral and ethical implications in denying her this privilege. What is the rationale behind denying a widow access to that which would only be discarded? Suppose the sperm, rather than be discarded, were to be designated that of an unknown donor to be used in AID? If unmarred women have the right to procreate even using known donor sperm, what is the reason for prohibiting a woman to choose to be inseminated with the sperm of a man …

Jurisdiction Over Foreign Governments, Melissa L. Werthan, Nancie L. Combs, Jeffrey L. Deitch, Anita L. Fuoss
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
Passage of the FSIA in 1976 codified the restrictive theory of sovereign immunity, which provides that a foreign state will re-main immune from suit for its public acts but will lose immunity for its private and commercial acts. By placing the determination of a foreign government's immunity in the hands of the judiciary, Congress attempted to standardize an area of the law that had been governed by political relations between the United States and foreign governments.
The FSIA is the exclusive mechanism through which private parties can seek redress against foreign governments in United States courts. The Act provides a …

The Uniform Statutory Rule Against Perpetuities, Lawrence W. Waggoner
The Uniform Statutory Rule Against Perpetuities, Lawrence W. Waggoner
Articles
When the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws recently approved the Uniform Statutory Rule Against Perpetuities, it may at long last have made perpetuity reform achievable in this country. Coming, as it does, on the heels of the 1981 promulgation of the Restatement (Second) of Property (Donative Transfers), which adopts the same general type of perpetuity reform, and having been unanimously endorsed by the House of Delegates of the American Bar Association, the Board of Regents of the American College of Probate Counsel, and the Board of Governors of the American College of Real Estate Lawyers, the Uniform …
Dancing On The Edge Of Article 9, James J. White
Dancing On The Edge Of Article 9, James J. White
Articles
Despite the fact that Article 9 is a much more comprehensive personal property security statute than was ever found in American law prior to its enactment, cases continue to present issues on the scope of the Article. Gone are the cases in which a court was called upon to determine whether a "conditional sales contract" could be dealt with under the "factor's lien" law; it is now clear that all such personal property security devices are governed by Article 9. Yet many problems remain for the unwary lawyer. I will identify several and deal in detail with three of these …
Illegal Lofts In New York City: Have The Equities Been Balanced, Jay Facciolo
Illegal Lofts In New York City: Have The Equities Been Balanced, Jay Facciolo
Fordham Urban Law Journal
In New York City today, tens of thousands of people,' primarily tenants, are illegally occupying lofts. These tenants have signed commercial leases, often long-term leases at rents far below the current market rate. The changing economics of loft buildings has led to serious conflicts between landlords and tenants. Landlords have sought to evict tenants before their leases expire, refused to renew their leases or demanded higher rental rates upon renewal. Tenants have withheld rent for extended periods. These conflicts have been taken to the courts, and legislation recently enacted in New York State attempts to resolve these issues for at …
