Proyecto De Ley Sobre Juicio Por Jurados, Dr Leonardo J. Raznovich

Dr Leonardo J Raznovich

This article published in Spanish provides with an assessment of a bill sent to the Argentinean Parliament in order to implement trial by jury for serious criminal matters. It also provides with a historical overview of the institution and with some possible explanations why the Argentinean legislator has been reluctant to fulfill the constitutional mandate of implementing trial by jury for all criminal matters (articles 24, 75 (12) and 118 of the Argentinean Constitution).


A Preliminary Analysis Of The Amendments To The Japanese Secured Transaction Law, Wei Zhang Jan 2004

A Preliminary Analysis Of The Amendments To The Japanese Secured Transaction Law, Wei Zhang

Wei Zhang

The collapse of the Japanese asset price bubble in the 90's left a record amount of non-performing loans in the nation's financial system. To tackle this unprecedented crisis, both legal scholars and practitioners in Japan advocated for a series of amendments to its secured transaction law to facilitate the enforcement of mortgages by banks. In this paper, based on the state of the post-bubble real estate finance market, I discussed the major drawbacks of the existing Japanese secured transaction system as it was applied in the real estate arena. I commented on the proposed material amendments to the Japanese secured …

On The Effectiveness Of The Restrictions Governing Life In A Common Interest Community: A Comparative Study Between American And Japanese Law (Chinese Version), Wei Zhang

Wei Zhang

In this article, I made a comparative study on the laws regulating the restrictions established by developers or among property owners in common interest communities in the U.S. and Japan, as well as the cultural and social backgrounds against which they are created. It appears that similar rules exist in both countries to combat excessive restrictions on life in common interest communities, although the American law treats the ex ante restrictions somewhat differently from the ex post ones. Using a law and economics perspective, I argue that such disparate treatments make good sense given the feasibility of internalizing the effects …

Designing And Developing Web-Based Continuing Legal Education, Timothy R. Tarvin, William Brescia, James Jackson, Christopher Ott Dec 2003

Designing And Developing Web-Based Continuing Legal Education, Timothy R. Tarvin, William Brescia, James Jackson, Christopher Ott

Timothy R Tarvin

The development of Web-based Continuing Legal Education (“CLE”) courses is becoming increasingly important to the legal profession and legal education. Forty states currently have mandatory requirements for continuing legal education, many of which permit online CLE. In a collaborative project at the University of Arkansas, a product was designed and developed to serve as a model for future Web-based CLE. This paper provides an account of the process of developing a course interface, the process used to coordinate class activities with the client, and a description of the finished product. Because the course was developed exclusively in an academic environment, …

The Transformation Of An Academic Discipline: Law Professors In The Past And Future (Or Toy Story Too), Stephen M. Feldman Dec 2003

The Transformation Of An Academic Discipline: Law Professors In The Past And Future (Or Toy Story Too), Stephen M. Feldman

Stephen M. Feldman

Since the post-Civil War era law professors have perceived themselves first and foremost as lawyers. For the most part, during that time, we were lawyers teaching students about the law and about how to practice law. But we were not merely lawyers teaching apprentices. We were law professors, mostly in university-affiliated law schools, who wrote scholarly articles and books. Even so, our scholarship revolved around our perception of ourselves as lawyers. We wrote to reform and to improve the law. Through our scholarship we directly participated in the legal system, in legal and judicial practices, by advising lawyers and judges, …
