Breach Notification Requirements Under The European Union Legal Framework: Convergence, Conflicts, And Complexity In Compliance, 31 J. Marshall J. Info. Tech. & Privacy L. 317 (2014), Samson Esayas
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
The European Union (EU) legal landscape on data privacy and information security is undergoing significant changes. A prominent legislative development in recent years is the introduction of breach notification requirements within a number of regulatory instruments. In only the past two years, the Community legislator has adopted, and proposed, four different regulatory instruments containing breach notification requirements. There are also existing requirements for the telecom sector. This creates a complex mesh of regulatory frameworks for breach notification where different aspects of the same breach within the same company might have to be dealt with under different regulatory instruments, making compliance …

Bear Stearns And Lehman Brothers: “Too Big To Fail’S” Impact, 3 J. Marshall Global Mkt. L.J. 49 (2014), Natalie Warrington
Bear Stearns And Lehman Brothers: “Too Big To Fail’S” Impact, 3 J. Marshall Global Mkt. L.J. 49 (2014), Natalie Warrington
John Marshall Global Markets Law Journal
The 2008 financial crisis led to controversial government bailouts of institutions that were deemed “too big to fail” (TBTF). Critics propose that systemic risk and TBTF were the main causes of the financial collapse of Bear Stearns and Lehman Brothers—two of the institutions that were at the center of the bailout controversy. These bailouts have been criticized as creating moral hazard which, for financial institutions, means that decision makers, counterparties, creditors, and shareholders will take fewer precautions and take on more risk since the government will bail them out. However, whether various market participants in fact take fewer precautions and …

Admission Of Guilt: Sinking Teeth Into The Sec’S Sweetheart Deals, 3 J. Marshall Global Mkt. L.J. 27 (2014), Larissa Lee
John Marshall Global Markets Law Journal
Throughout its existence, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has allowed defendants to settle cases without admitting to the allegations of wrongdoing. This “neither admit nor deny” policy has received heavy criticism by judges, Congress, and the public, especially in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis. On June 18, 2013, SEC Chairman Mary Jo White announced the agency’s intention to require admissions of guilt in certain cases. While Chairman White did not articulate a clear standard of when admissions would be required, she did say that the agency would focus on the egregiousness of the defendant’s conduct and …

Community Of Support: Moving Toward Indirect Regulation Of The Hedge Fund Industry, 3 J. Marshall Global Mkt. L.J. 1 (2014), Randy Haight
John Marshall Global Markets Law Journal
The popularity of hedge funds has exponentially increased over the past decade due to the unparalleled gains that hedge funds present for investors. However, hedge funds remain largely unregulated in comparison to other financial instruments such as traditional stocks and derivatives. The emergence of the hedge fund as a component of the financial industry has brought with it questions pertaining to the optimal method of hedge fund regulation. The foremost concern in regulating hedge funds is to strike a balance between market stability and investor protection. In order to do so, an equilibrium must be found between leaving hedge funds …

Emerging Growth Companies Under The Jobs Act: An Analysis Of The “Ipo On-Ramp”, 3 J. Marshall Global Mkt. L.J. 63 (2014), Kiersten Zaza
John Marshall Global Markets Law Journal
Since 2008, the United States has been faced with a “jobless recovery” which can be attributed in part to a decline in new business creation. To study the link between small companies’ access to markets and creation of jobs, the IPO Task Force was created. The IPO Task Force conducted research and set forth various findings regarding the correlation between emerging growth companies and job creation. The IPO Task Force also attributed a decline in IPO activity to the complex regulatory environment. Accepting these findings, and in response, the JOBS Act passed with surprisingly high bipartisan support. The JOBS Act …
The Thin Red Federal Poverty Line: How Rejecting The Medicaid Expansion Affects Those With Exchange Coverage, 47 J. Marshall L. Rev. 923 (2014), J. Angelo Desantis
The Thin Red Federal Poverty Line: How Rejecting The Medicaid Expansion Affects Those With Exchange Coverage, 47 J. Marshall L. Rev. 923 (2014), J. Angelo Desantis
UIC Law Review
This Article explores the less-discussed consequences to Exchanges in non-Expansion states. One consequence is that the rules designed to help individuals who fall on hard time maintain coverage can work against the poor in non-Expansion states. In those states, common life events, marriage, divorce, a new child, a job loss, and retirement, can push lower income enrollees out of subsidy eligibility. And if enrollees report income changes to the Exchange — as most Exchanges require — they’ll lose their subsidies. But in non-Expansion states, enrollees may be better off not notifying Exchanges of certain income drops.

Stubhub's Tug At The Municipal Purse String: Why The Home-Rule Taxing Powers Enumerated In The Illinois Constitution Must Remain Broad And Strong, 48 J. Marshall L. Rev. 37 (2014), Joseph Kearney
UIC Law Review
The issues facing Illinois cities are equally, if not more, important today as in 1970 and will require local leaders to be able to use all governance tools at their disposal. The ability of a municipality to raise revenue is arguably one of the most important expressly granted by home rule. Accordingly, the Stubhub case should be viewed with caution going forward, as it raises the possibility of potentially serious challenges to municipal home rule power in the future. This article, then, will do several things. First, it will give the reader a concise definition and history of the constitutional …

Stop Presumptive Transfers: How Forcing Juveniles To Prove They Should Remain In The Juvenile Justice System Is Inconsistent With Roper V. Simmons & Graham V. Florida, 48 J. Marshall L. Rev. 365 (2014), Rachel Fugett
UIC Law Review
Overly expansive juvenile transfer laws are inconsistent with the Court’s reasoning because their primary objective is to transfer juveniles into the adult criminal justice system solely for the purpose of punishing and sentencing them like adults. In so doing, expansive juvenile transfer laws, more often than not, largely ignore a juvenile’s diminished culpability and greater capacity for change.
A New Devil In The White City: The Demolition Of Prentice Women's Hospital And The Failures Of Chicago's Landmarks Ordinance, 48 J. Marshall L. Rev. 391 (2014), Laura Luisi
UIC Law Review
Chicago’s culture is, in large part, defined by its courageous, innovative, and rich architectural history. With such a strong cultural identity comes the responsibility to preserve the City’s character for generations to come. Throughout its history, the City of Chicago allowed architectural masterpieces to succumb to economic and political pressures. The recent decision in Hanna v. City of Chicago left Chicago’s Landmarks Ordinance unscathed, but nevertheless, its inadequacies are showcased by the demolition of the Prentice Women’s Hospital. An examination of the landmark ordinances of other large American cities further demonstrates the shortcomings of Chicago’s own ordinance. Chicago’s Landmarks Ordinance, …
