Evolving Contours Of Immigration Federalism: The Case Of Migrant Children, Elizabeth Keyes
Evolving Contours Of Immigration Federalism: The Case Of Migrant Children, Elizabeth Keyes
Elizabeth Keyes
In a unique corner of immigration law, a significant reallocation of power over immigration has been occurring with little fanfare. States play a dramatic immigration gatekeeping role in the process for providing protection to immigrant youth, like many of the Central American children who sought entry to the United States in the 2014 border “surge.” This article closely examines the history of this Special Immigrant Juvenile Status provision, enacted in 1990, which authorized a vital state role in providing access to an immigration benefit. The article traces the series of shifts in allocation of power between the federal government and …

The Implausibility Of Secrecy, Mark Fenster

Government secrecy frequently fails. Despite the executive branch’s obsessive hoarding of certain kinds of documents and its constitutional authority to do so, recent high-profile events—among them the WikiLeaks episode, the Obama administration’s celebrated leak prosecutions, and the widespread disclosure by high-level officials of flattering confidential information to sympathetic reporters—undercut the image of a state that can classify and control its information. The effort to control government information requires human, bureaucratic, technological, and textual mechanisms that regularly founder or collapse in an administrative state, sometimes immediately and sometimes after an interval. Leaks, mistakes, open sources—each of these constitutes a path out …

Padilla Postconviction Claims In Florida: Squaring Chaidez, Hernandez And Castaño, Rebecca Sharpless, Andrew Stanton
Rebecca Sharpless
In Padilla v. Kentucky, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the Sixth Amendment requires defense attorneys to counsel their noncitizen clients about the immigration consequences of a plea. Padilla had pled guilty in state court to a drug crime and, after his conviction became final, filed a state postconviction motion alleging that his attorney rendered ineffective assistance of counsel by failing to advise him that his plea would trigger deportation. In holding that Padilla was entitled to competent advice regarding the consequences of his plea, the Court recognized what professional norms have required for at least the last two decades. …

Reglering Av Överlåtna Förvaltningsuppgifter [Rules On Public Matters That Are Assigned To Non Government Subjects], Vilhelm Persson
Vilhelm Persson
Swedish law allows that public matters are assigned to private parties as well as international or foreign bodies. When matters are assigned, general administrative rules are often not applicable. However, constitutional provisions still have to be respected by private parties. In contrast, transferring matters to international or foreign bodies has the effect to completely distance the matters from the Swedish legal order, including the constitution. But of course Sweden could make it a condition for the transfer that Swedish rules are applied.
Rättsliga Ramar För Gränsöverskridande Samarbete. Förvaltningsmyndigheters Internationella Avtalsförhållanden. [Legal Frameworks For Cross-Border Co-Operation: International Agreements Between Administrative Authorities], Vilhelm Persson
Vilhelm Persson
When Swedish public bodies have reasons to contact and co-operate with foreign public bodies, this may give rise to legally complex situations. There are reasons to endeavour to seek solutions adapted to the needs of each individual case. This thesis investigates legal frameworks for such solutions. The investigation in particular deals with binding agreements concluded by Swedish public authorities and municipalities with corresponding types of foreign public bodies. By the conclusion of such agreements more than one legal system may be involved. This thesis deals with Swedish national law and public international law. A question of central concern for this …
