Congressional Roundtable On College Endowments - Restricted Gifts Testimony, Iris Goodwin Sep 2008

Congressional Roundtable On College Endowments - Restricted Gifts Testimony, Iris Goodwin

Scholarly Works

Restricted purpose gifts potentially bear upon that portion of the university's endowment that can be used toward undergraduate financial aid and other tuition relief. In these remarks, I describe what a restricted gift is, the requirement under state common law that such restrictions obtain in perpetuity, the grounds for relief under the common law, and the grounds for relief and other relevant provisions of UPMIFA. The provisions of UPMIFA that are applicable to restricted gifts were drafted against the background of the common law doctrine and under UPMIFA common law relief is still available.

Democratic Transition, Judicial Accountability And Judicialisation Of Politics In Africa, Hakeem O. Yusuf

Hakeem O Yusuf

Purpose – This paper examines the growing incidence of judicialisation of politics in Nigeria’s democratisation experience against the backdrop of questionable judicial accountability. Design/methodology/approach – The article draws on legal and political theory as well as comparative law perspectives.

Looking Off The Ball: Constitutional Law And American Politics, Mark A. Graber Jul 2008

Looking Off The Ball: Constitutional Law And American Politics, Mark A. Graber

Mark Graber

Constitutional norms and standards generate legal agreements among persons who dispute the underlying merits of particular policies under constitutional attack. The norms and standards explain constitutional criticism, why only a small proportion of the political questions that occupy Americans are normally …
