Institutional Arrangements And Individual Rights: A Comment On Professor Tribe's Critique Of The Modern Court's Treatment Of Constitutional Liberty, Dan T. Coenen
Scholarly Works
Professor Coenen analyzes Professor Tribe's contention that the present day Supreme Court's constitutional work is marked by an unjustified two-track approach. Professor Tribe has built this claim on an elaborate assessment of Saenz v. Roe, in which the Court -- to the surprise of many prognosticators -- invalidated a state statute that imposed temporary limitations on welfare benefits for new residents. He contends that the Court employed the open-stanced constitutional methodology of “structural inference” in deciding Saenz only because that case involved institutional arrangements. According to Professor Tribe, the modern Court has carefully (and unjustifiably) confined its use of structural …

Securities Price Risks And Financial Derivative Markets, Peter H. Huang
Securities Price Risks And Financial Derivative Markets, Peter H. Huang
Publications
The financial and popular media report almost daily on the volatility of securities market prices. Yet, many people continue to buy securities to hedge against or speculate on certain risks. People can also buy or sell derivatives to hedge against or speculate on fluctuations in securities prices. This Article discusses three regulatory policy implications of utilizing derivatives markets to reallocate the bearing of securities price risks. First, if there are too few non-redundant derivative markets, a competitive market equilibrium allocation of securities price risks is typically constrained Pareto inefficient. This financial economic result means that for typical economies, a regulator …

Review Of Medicare Reimbursement Disputes Under 42 U.S.C. § 1395oo: Delineating A Unified Theory Of The Provider Reimbursement Review Board's Jurisdiction And Scope Of Review, David W. Thomas
Duquesne Law Review
Under the Medicare health insurance program, medical care providers, such as hospitals, submit claims for reimbursement of medical expenses to fiscal intermediaries. The fiscal intermediaries, usually private insurance companies operating as links between providers and the Department of Health and Human Services, then determine whether the claims warrant reimbursement with Medicare funds. As a consequence of this process, disputes often arise between providers and fiscal intermediaries. These disputes must be presented to the Provider Reimbursement Review Board. The continuing confusion surrounding the Board's jurisdiction over certain claims and the Board's scope of review prompted the author to explain the genesis …

Romeo Revisited: Limiting The Statute Of Limitations That Applies To Claims For Breach Of A Construction Contract, Kristie M. Kachuriak
Romeo Revisited: Limiting The Statute Of Limitations That Applies To Claims For Breach Of A Construction Contract, Kristie M. Kachuriak
Duquesne Law Review
In 42 Pa.C.S.A. § 5525(8), the Pennsylvania legislature clearly promulgated a four-year statute of limitations for all breach of contract claims arising out of written contracts. Nevertheless, the Pennsylvania Superior Court has interpreted the statute to require that a six-year limitations period be applied when the contract at issue is a construction contract. Even though the Pennsylvania Supreme Court expressly isolated and failed to affirm the superior court's conclusion on appeal, the argument in favor of the application of a six-year statute of limitations to such claims has never been definitively put to rest. After explaining the amendment to the …

The California Open Primary Act Unconstitutionally Burdens Political Parties' Associated Rights: California Democratic Party V. Jones, Brian Patrick Bronson
Duquesne Law Review
The Supreme Court of the United States held that a State may not implement an open primary system that unreasonably burdens political parties' associational rights that are guaranteed by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution.
California Democratic Party v. Jones, 120 S. Ct. 2402 (2000).

In Determining The Criminal Liability Of A Parent, Neither The Maturity Of An Unemancipated Minor Nor The Minor's Right To Privacy Are Affirmative Defenses To Discharge Parental Duties To Their Minor Children In Life Threatening Situations: Commonwealth V. Nixon, Douglas C. Hart
Duquesne Law Review
The Pennsylvania Supreme Court held that the mature minor doctrine will not be employed in the Commonwealth as an affirmative criminal defense discharging parents from the duty to provide care to a minor in their custody.
Commonwealth v. Nixon, 761 A.2d 1151 (Pa. 2000)
Protecting The Performers: Setting A New Standard For Character Copyrightability, Mark Bartholomew
Protecting The Performers: Setting A New Standard For Character Copyrightability, Mark Bartholomew
Journal Articles
Copyright law protects expressions of ideas, but not the idea itself. Legal disputes over characters arise in the continuum between an idea for a character that has not been expressed at all, and an idea that has been given complete form and shape. The inconsistent common law tests developed to assess character copyrightability demonstrate the difficulty in pinpointing where the dividing line between an undeveloped idea and a sufficiently expressed character should be set. This Article offers a new paradigm for determining character copyrightability, particularly in the case of characters shaped through live performance, that tracks the Hegelian concept of …
Troxel And The Limits Of Community, Margaret F. Brinig
Troxel And The Limits Of Community, Margaret F. Brinig
Journal Articles
The Troxel grandparent-visitation case that frames this symposium, the Washington statute included in Troxel, the mercifully completed odyssey of Cuban-born Elian Gonzalez, and the "right to die" case of Hugh Finn all illustrate both the fervor with which the broader community justifies its involvement with families and the extremes to which this involvement can spread. Using constitutional language, advocates point out the rights of extended family members to continue or strengthen ties to children, whether adult or minor. On the other side, parents and spouses claim their own rights not to have outsiders second-guess or interfere with their decisions.
Though …
Religious Claims And The Dynamics Of Argument, M. Cathleen Kaveny
Religious Claims And The Dynamics Of Argument, M. Cathleen Kaveny
Journal Articles
This Article investigates the questions whether and when religious claims may enter into public debate about important political issues by considering the purposes of argument in the public square. These purposes include: (1) argument as self-disclosure; (2) argument as persuasion; and (3) argument as bulwark against engagement with the ideas of others. The Article argues that restrictions on the use of religious claims in public deliberations and discussion impede the legitimate functions of public argument as self-disclosing and persuasive activities. In contrast, such restrictions contribute to the use of argument as bulwark, which is arguably destructive to public deliberation in …
In Search Of Prince Charming, Margaret F. Brinig
In Search Of Prince Charming, Margaret F. Brinig
Journal Articles
This response begins by addressing the different perspectives as presented by the panel “Sex, Lies and Exploitation.” One of the panelists, professor Plasencia, presented a powerful and graphic documentation of digital communication’s influence on the sex industry. Some of the images involved explicitly portrayed the sex trade while in others, it was portrayed more subtly as an arranged or mail-order marriage. The author's response to professor Plasencia is mixed. On the one hand, it is rather easy these days for one to mistakenly encounter a sexually explicit website. On the other hand, however, since little information exists on how widespread …
The Stealth Assault On Antitrust Enforcement: Raising The Barriers For Antitrust Injury And Standing, Joseph P. Bauer
The Stealth Assault On Antitrust Enforcement: Raising The Barriers For Antitrust Injury And Standing, Joseph P. Bauer
Journal Articles
The first Annual Conference sponsored by the American Antitrust Institute featured a number of prominent speakers and explored a number of important issues. The Conference had two principal focuses: substantive questions of antitrust liability and the future direction of public enforcement of the antitrust laws by the Department of Justice's Antitrust Division and by the Federal Trade Commission. However, an issue of at least equal importance was barely discussed, although it has seriously affected the scope and direction of the antitrust laws. That issue: Private enforcement of the antitrust laws, and the significant undermining of those efforts by a number …
The History Of The Judicial Review Of Administrative Power And The Future Of Regulatory Governance, John J. Coughlin
The History Of The Judicial Review Of Administrative Power And The Future Of Regulatory Governance, John J. Coughlin
Journal Articles
Traditionally, judicial review has afforded an important check on the exercise of administrative power. First, judicial review functions to protect the legislative intent behind the statutory authorization of the exercise of administrative power. Pursuant to the conventional model, an administrative agency exercises restricted legislative and judicial functions under judicial scrutiny to insure compliance with congressional intent. Judicial review insures that "a congressional delegation of power . . . must be accompanied by discernible standards, so that the delegatee's action can be measured for its fidelity to the legislative will." Additionally, the opportunity for judicial review of administrative action corrects and …

Digital Performance Royalties: Should Radio Pay?, Bruce H. Phillips, Carl R. Moore
Digital Performance Royalties: Should Radio Pay?, Bruce H. Phillips, Carl R. Moore
Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law
We must acknowledge that some questions remain unanswered. Have we entered an era in which record labels, recording artists, record producers, and musicians will finally earn royalties for the public performance of their creations? Will the recent Copyright Office action be a watershed development in United States copyright law? Or will the broadcasters and their well-funded and powerful lobbying arm, the NAB, prevail in the end--if not in the courts, then in Congress? The only clear answer is simply this: not if the RIAA, the record labels' own well-funded and powerful lobbying arm, has anything to do with it. It …
Beyond The Blackboard: Regulating Distance Learning In Higher Education, Leslie T. Thornton
Beyond The Blackboard: Regulating Distance Learning In Higher Education, Leslie T. Thornton
Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law
It is not so surprising that traditional institutions of higher education have been relatively slower than businesses, for example, to embrace the potential of the new technologies, and have lost students to those institutions and businesses which have been more willing to change. But technology is playing an enormous role in the shape, size, and direction of education, and it's not waiting for the leaders of traditional institutions--or anyone else, for that matter--to join the club.
This Article examines the scope and impact of that role, specifically as it has developed through a new trend toward online "distance education" or …

Irreconcilable Congressional Treatment Of Internet Service Providers As Speakers, Raymond Shih Ray Ku
Irreconcilable Congressional Treatment Of Internet Service Providers As Speakers, Raymond Shih Ray Ku
Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law
This Article argues that under the CDA and OCILLA, Congress adopted facially inconsistent approaches towards ISP liability for expression. Nonetheless, despite the overt differences, it is possible to discern an underlying principle for determining when ISPs should be considered speakers that reconciles this inconsistency. Put simply, the CDA and OCILLA support an approach toward determining when ISPs are speakers that focuses on whether an ISP exercises editorial control over its network. This approach is evidenced by the fact that both statutes recognize that ISPs are able to exercise editorial control over any and all content on their networks, and both …
Flag On The Play: 25 To Life For The Offense Of Murder, Sean Bukowski
Flag On The Play: 25 To Life For The Offense Of Murder, Sean Bukowski
Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law
This Note will consider the extent to which the "professional athletic" community should add its own sanctions to those imposed by public law. First, it asks whether athletes are getting into more trouble than in the past, as it is possible that athletes are just following a trend of society, and thus are no more prone to violence than anyone else. Nevertheless, violent crime, especially that committed by role models like athletes, is especially damaging to society. Therefore, the Note then addresses why the sports leagues should care whether their athletes are committing such offenses.
It will then examine how …
For Entertainment Purposes Or Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam: Televangelism In The Marketplace Of Ideas, Juan G. Villasenor
For Entertainment Purposes Or Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam: Televangelism In The Marketplace Of Ideas, Juan G. Villasenor
Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law
This Note discusses the proposed legal responses to the problem of fraud by televangelists. Finding the solutions constitutionally deficient, politically unsound, or practically ineffective as deterrents, it then explores the possibility of a content-based restriction on televangelists' speech. The Note concludes that such a deliberate restriction on speech cannot withstand First Amendment scrutiny, regardless of the dishonesty or disingenuousness one may find in televangelists' tactics. Accordingly, despite the great potential for deception, televangelists' activities are, and should be, absolutely protected by the First Amendment. Any proposed remedy to deal with televangelism must occur in the marketplace of ideas, which is …
Chasing Bits Across Borders, Patricia L. Bellia
Chasing Bits Across Borders, Patricia L. Bellia
Journal Articles
As computer crime becomes more widespread, countries increasingly confront difficulties in securing evidence stored in electronic form outside of their borders. These difficulties have prompted two related responses. Some states have asserted a broad power to conduct remote cross-border searches - that is, to use computers within their territory to access and examine data physically stored outside of their territory. Other states have pressed for recognition of a remote cross-border search power in international fora, arguing that such a power is an essential weapon in efforts to combat computer crime. This Article explores these state responses and develops a framework …
Changes In The Ticket Distribution Industry: Is This The Beginning Of The End For Ticketmaster?, Joycelyn Stevenson
Changes In The Ticket Distribution Industry: Is This The Beginning Of The End For Ticketmaster?, Joycelyn Stevenson
Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law
This Note aims to explore the legal underpinnings of consumer frustration with Ticketmaster and the rest of the ticket distribution industry as it moves into the electronic age. First, this Note introduces Ticketmaster and examines its use of exclusive dealing agreements with local venues. It then discusses the relevant federal antitrust statutes affecting the industry and the market in which distributors operate. It also analyzes the role exclusive dealing agreements play in stifling competition. Next, this Note discusses the challenges--both legal and economic--to the industry's most visible member. It then discusses Ticketmaster as a possible product of competition in light …
The Price Of Fame: The Celebrity Image As A Commodity And The Right Of Publicity, Ty Ford
The Price Of Fame: The Celebrity Image As A Commodity And The Right Of Publicity, Ty Ford
Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law
This Note will examine several recent cases that illustrate how major stars are using the ever-widening scope of such doctrines to control their images in the media. These examples show how the right of publicity has evolved from a right designed to protect a performer's uniquely personal attributes and stylings from unauthorized (and unpaid for) exploitation into a legal fortress constructed around movie-star images that allows the star to separate unwanted attention from necessary popularity. Furthermore, it will explore the inherent contradictions in such a development, showing how it can be used to manipulate and control the very peripheral industries, …
Forming A Single Entity: A Recipe For Success For New Professional Sports Leagues, Karen Jordan
Forming A Single Entity: A Recipe For Success For New Professional Sports Leagues, Karen Jordan
Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law
This Note begins by introducing some of the more recently founded professional sports leagues, identifying their background and single-entity structures. It then provides a general background of antitrust issues in sports, followed by explanations of the possible defenses, including the single-entity structure. Next, it discusses Fraser as a potential landmark case for professional sports leagues, showing how its lessons contribute to the current mode of antitrust analysis. Finally, this Note illustrates why single-entity structuring may be essential for leagues in their infancy, but of little use to well-established professional sports leagues.
