The Law "On The State Registration Of Rights In Real Property": Encouraging Or Deterring Foreign Investment In The Russian Federation?, William R. Siegel Jan 1998

The Law "On The State Registration Of Rights In Real Property": Encouraging Or Deterring Foreign Investment In The Russian Federation?, William R. Siegel

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

The Law "On the State Registration of Rights in Real Property" of July 21, 1997 (the "Registration Law" or "the Law") constitutes a major step towards the achievement of an effective national registration system and, concomitantly, a viable real estate market for foreign investors in the Russian Federation ("RF"). Prior to this law, foreign investors could not rely upon a formal system of state registration to protect their interests in real property.To remedy this problem, the Registration Law creates a system that, at least on paper, is comparable to Western registration systems in its consistency, accessibility and certainty. However, the …

The Tax Status Of Ohio Property Used For Low-Income Housing, Christopher P. Conomy Jan 1998

The Tax Status Of Ohio Property Used For Low-Income Housing, Christopher P. Conomy

Cleveland State Law Review

This Note argues that the rule denying property tax exemption to low-income housing units is improper. The rule is improper in three significant regards. First, as a matter of social and public policy, the rule is misguided, because it hinders the fulfillment of an important need in Ohio and in American society at large. Second, as a purely legal matter, the original rule denying exemption for these properties resulted as a mistaken application of the existing law regarding the definition of "charitable" use. The third, and most compelling reason, is that the legal basis underlying the original rule has undergone …


Chicana/Chicano Land Tenure In The Agrarian Domain: On The Edge Of A "Naked Knife", Guadalupe T. Lunda Jan 1998

Chicana/Chicano Land Tenure In The Agrarian Domain: On The Edge Of A "Naked Knife", Guadalupe T. Lunda

Michigan Journal of Race and Law

Neither sovereignty nor property rights could forestall American geopolitical expansion in the first half of the nineteenth century. The conflicts that resulted from this clash of doctrine with desire are perhaps most evident in the history of the Chicanas/Chicanos of Texas, California, and the Southwest, who sought to maintain their land and property, as guaranteed by the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, in the aftermath of the U.S.- Mexico War. Integrating an exploration of case law with political and social histories of the period, the Author explores the sociolegal significance of Chicana/Chicano land dispossession; exposes the racial, economic, and political motivations …

Protecting Property Rights With Strict Scrutiny: An Argument For The "Specifically And Uniquely Attributable" Standard , Daniel Williams Russo Jan 1998

Protecting Property Rights With Strict Scrutiny: An Argument For The "Specifically And Uniquely Attributable" Standard , Daniel Williams Russo

Fordham Urban Law Journal

This article analyzes three levels of scrutiny states have applied to regulatory takings cases. These include 'judicial deterrence", "rational nexus", and "specifically and uniquely attributable". The author argues that the first two standards are inefficient and concludes in favor of the "specifically and uniquely attributable" standard.
