Faculty Salary Compression: A Model For Response, Elizabeth Reilly, Chand Midha, Thomas Calderon, Richard Steiner
Thomas Calderon
This paper describes a process used by The University of Akron to address salary compression. The process allocates salary adjustment resources to disciplines based on relative salary ratios derived from benchmarks. Amounts earmarked for specific disciplines are then distributed to departments for allocation to individual faculty based on merit. The process also invokes concepts of fairness and equity, and includes a component distributed to productive faculty members based on rank and experience. Outcomes, challenges, and implications of the process are examined.

The Canon Of Family Law, Jill Elaine Hasday
The Canon Of Family Law, Jill Elaine Hasday
Jill Elaine Hasday
What is the canon of family law? By canon, I mean the ways of thinking about family law that are widely shared by legal scholars and especially by legal authorities, like legislators and judges. The existing literature on canons, which has long centered on the literary canon and has recently turned to the constitutional law canon, has most commonly understood a canon to be a set of foundational texts that exemplify, guide, and constitute a discipline. In part, the family law canon tracks this traditional focus on the inclusion and exclusion of texts, even if the family law canon does …
A New Right To Property: Civil War Confiscation In The Reconstruction Supreme Court, Daniel W. Hamilton
A New Right To Property: Civil War Confiscation In The Reconstruction Supreme Court, Daniel W. Hamilton
Daniel W. Hamilton
During the Civil War, both the Union Congress, in the First and Second Confiscation Acts, and the Confederate Congress, in the Sequestration Act, put in place sweeping confiscation programs designed to seize the private property of enemy citizens on a massive scale. This paper compares property confiscation in the Union and the Confederacy. It examines congressional debates, the social impact of confiscation legislation, and the interpretation of confiscation doctrine by the Supreme Court. I contend that the Civil War experiment with confiscation helped cause an important shift in American property ideology and constitutional law by accelerating the rise of liberal …

Los Actos Jurídicos En Sentido Estricto: Sus Bases Históricas Y Dogmáticas, Leysser L. León
Leysser L. León
Aunque propuesta con posterioridad a la teoría general del negocio jurídico, la categoría del acto jurídico en sentido estricto (Rechtshandlung) no ha sido convenientemente estudiada en la doctrina del derecho civil peruano. Prestando atención a las normas del Código Civil peruano vigente, se exponen las bases históricas y dogmáticas de los actos en sentido estricto, y se aportan elementos para su configuración con arreglo a este marco normativo.

A New Approach To Old Cases: Reconsidering Statutes Of Limitation, Ehud Guttel, Michael Novick
A New Approach To Old Cases: Reconsidering Statutes Of Limitation, Ehud Guttel, Michael Novick
Ehud Guttel
Statutes of limitation currently occur in two forms. The first and traditional form defines a fixed period within which the plaintiff may file her claim, and bars a claim that is filed after this period. The second form, the discovery rule, softens the traditional statute’s bar when the plaintiff is reasonably unaware, for some time after the harm occurs, of some of the facts essential to her claim.
This Article proposes a new model of statue of limitation that transforms temporal limitation from a sanction rule to a price rule. The traditional regime and the discovery rule divide time into …

Civilian Immunity And The Rebuttable Presumption Of Innocence, James M. Donovan
Civilian Immunity And The Rebuttable Presumption Of Innocence, James M. Donovan
James M. Donovan
"Terrorist" is a word that at once vilifies and justifies, serving the same function in today's politics and popular imagination as was served by the term "Nazi" a half century ago, or "communist" thereafter, or "witch" in our colonial days, in that it is "always, or even necessarily, wrong." Few appellations today are as effective to ostracize a person, movement, or organization from civilized company, and an astonishing array of actions and reactions can be fully warranted when having as their intent a response to the mere threat -- much less an actual act -- of terrorism.

Group Justice? Legal Moves That Lump Pharma Cases Together Are Bad For Justice And Bad For The Industry, William Janssen
Group Justice? Legal Moves That Lump Pharma Cases Together Are Bad For Justice And Bad For The Industry, William Janssen
William M. Janssen
This article critiques the judicial penchant for combining drug and device tort cases together for adjudication, and posits that the functional challenges encountered with such efficiencies compromise the essential truth-finding process of such litigation.
The Many Legal Institutions That Support Contractual Commitment, Gillian K. Hadfield
The Many Legal Institutions That Support Contractual Commitment, Gillian K. Hadfield
Gillian K Hadfield
One of the fundamental contributions of transaction cost theory and institutional economics has been to focus attention on opening the "black box" of contract enforcement, drawing attention to the institutions required to achieve effective and low-cost contract enforcement. The idea that the effectiveness of contract law is critical to the growth of economic activity is widespread in the literature on development and transition economies. Recent studies attempting to document toe relative strength of contract enforcement in different settings (La Porta, et al., 19982; Djankov, et al., 2003), however, have focused on relatively abstract notions of "courts" and "legal systems" and …
Unsettling Efficiency: When Non-Class Aggregation Of Mass Torts Creates Second-Class Settlements, Elizabeth Chamblee Burch
Unsettling Efficiency: When Non-Class Aggregation Of Mass Torts Creates Second-Class Settlements, Elizabeth Chamblee Burch
Elizabeth Chamblee Burch
Abstract: The potential for attorneys to collude in reaching a settlement agreement arises in any large-scale aggregation of mass torts. In the 1990s, attorneys settled seventy-four percent of the mass tort cases consolidated for transfer by the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation. Even though most mass tort litigation settles, the judicial system ensures the fairness and integrity of settlements only in the bankruptcy and class action contexts. Consequently, the fairness of the settlement can vary depending on how the judicial system aggregates the claims. Only thirty-nine percent of aggregated claims resulted in class action settlements. Two percent received bankruptcy protections. …

The Normativity Of Law In Law And Economics, Péter Cserne
Péter Cserne
This paper is about some theoretical and methodological problems of law and economics. I will use game theoretical insights to address an issue which is relevant both for law and economics and legal philosophy: How should a social scientific analysis of law account for the normativity of law, i.e. the non-instrumental reasons for rule-following while retaining the observer’s (explanatory or descriptive) perspective. My goal is to offer a constructive critique of both traditional law and economics scholarship and mainstream analytical legal philosophy in this respect. I will try to find out how law and economics has to account for the …
