Immigration Law: Nowhere To Turn—Illegal Aliens Cannot Use The Freedom Of Information Act As A Discovery Tool To Fight Unfair Removal Hearings, Larry R. Fleurantin May 2008

Immigration Law: Nowhere To Turn—Illegal Aliens Cannot Use The Freedom Of Information Act As A Discovery Tool To Fight Unfair Removal Hearings, Larry R. Fleurantin

Larry R. Fleurantin

This Article challenges the authority of the Attorney General and the DHS Secretary to withhold information from an alien after a FOIA request under Exemption (b)(5), to use that same withheld information to impeach the alien’s testimony during an individual hearing on the merits, and to use that as grounds for the Immigration Court to deny an applicant’s request for asylum. This Article takes the position that the USCIS needs to change its unfair practice to avoid the harsh and pervasive injustice that aliens facein removal proceedings.

Agency Preemption And The Shimer Analysis: Unmasking Strategic Characterization By Agencies And Giving Effect To The Presumption Against Preemption, Karen Jordan Jan 2008

Agency Preemption And The Shimer Analysis: Unmasking Strategic Characterization By Agencies And Giving Effect To The Presumption Against Preemption, Karen Jordan

Karen A. Jordan

Significant federalism concerns are raised when state products liability actions are preempted by federal regulatory schemes. For example, the FDA has recently taken the position that its approval of the labels on prescription drugs preempts civil tort claims grounded in a manufacturer’s failure to warn. Using the FDA’s recent stance on the issue of preemption, this Article demonstrates that federal agencies can engage in “strategic characterization” by pointing to Congress as the source of preemption, rather than the agency itself. In doing so, agencies avoid political and judicial scrutiny of agency action. This Article proposes that courts use a more …


Technical Capacity, Policymaking And Food Standards: An Overview Of Indian Experience, Nupur Chowdhury, Sanjay Kumar Jan 2008

Technical Capacity, Policymaking And Food Standards: An Overview Of Indian Experience, Nupur Chowdhury, Sanjay Kumar

Nupur Chowdhury

The SPS Agreement in the WTO gives legal validity to the CODEX standards. Since the developed countries have been at the forefront of setting the food standards in the CODEX, the developing countries have been increasingly engaged in the CODEX, and also in the WTO, with an objective to increase their exports of the agricultural and food products. But such objective and desire have often been stymied by the lack of institutions which can sustain the intense technical negotiations at the CODEX. If these participations are not qualitatively satisfactory, the very objective of such participations is not fulfilled. But since …


The “Institutional Turn” In Jurisprudence: Critique And Reconstruction., Andres Palacios Lleras Jan 2008

The “Institutional Turn” In Jurisprudence: Critique And Reconstruction., Andres Palacios Lleras

Andrés Palacios Lleras

This paper engages in a inquiry into the roles that courts play within the legal system, given that judges are interdependent interpreters of legal rules that are boundedly rational and, arguably, politically biased. Contemporary authors claim that, although these two conditions play an important role in interpretation, contemporary theories in jurisprudence have not addressed them properly. Their assessments raise legal issues that are very significant; given the fact that judges are boundedly rational and tend to display political biases, how should they interpret legal rules? Is it best for them to interpret these rules in a formalist fashion, without resorting …


The Indeterminate Side Of Constitutions As Precommitment Strategies, Andres Palacios Lleras Jan 2008

The Indeterminate Side Of Constitutions As Precommitment Strategies, Andres Palacios Lleras

Andrés Palacios Lleras

This paper engages in a time-honored inquiry in American jurisprudence, an inquiry which continues to be invigorated by contemporary studies in Constitutional Law. It is an inquiry into the determinacy of the American Constitution as a legal text, taking into account that it was drafted and approved more than two hundred years ago with the purpose, arguably, to organize present and future political decision-making. Some contemporary authors claim that the discussion about the role of the Constitution is muddled, and that to acknowledge its authority does not necessarily entail a theory of constitutional interpretation. Furthermore, other authors have claimed that …

What Is 'Private' Data?, Karen Mccullagh Jan 2008

What Is 'Private' Data?, Karen Mccullagh

Karen McCullagh

The development of a frontier-free Internal Market and of the so-called 'information society' have resulted in an increase in the flow of personal data between EU Member States. To remove potential obstacles to such transfers data protection legislation was introduced. One of the underpinning principles of Directive 95/46/EC is the protection of privacy. Yet, the legislation does not provide a conclusive understanding of the terms ‘privacy’ or ‘private’ data. Rather, privacy protection is to be achieved through the regulation of the conditions under which personal data may be processed. An assessment of whether, 10 years after the enactment of the …


Situating Emotion: A Critical Realist View Of Emotion And Nonconscious Cognitive Processes For Law And Legal Theory, David J. Arkush Jan 2008

Situating Emotion: A Critical Realist View Of Emotion And Nonconscious Cognitive Processes For Law And Legal Theory, David J. Arkush

David J. Arkush

This Article attempts to clarify legal thinking about emotion in decision making. It surveys evidence from psychology and neuroscience on the extensive role that emotion and related nonconscious cognitive processes play in human behavior, then evaluates the treatment of emotion in three legal views of decision making: rational choice theory, behavioral economics, and cultural cognition theory. The Article concludes that each theory is mistaken to treat emotion mostly as a decision objective rather than a part of the decision-making process and, indeed, to treat it as a force that mostly compromises that process. The Article introduces the view that emotion …


Institutes Of Higher Education, Safety Swords, And Privacy Shields: Reconciling Ferpa And The Common Law, Stephanie D. Humphries Jan 2008

Institutes Of Higher Education, Safety Swords, And Privacy Shields: Reconciling Ferpa And The Common Law, Stephanie D. Humphries

Stephanie D Humphries

In light of the Virginia Tech shootings, this Note argues that both FERPA and the common law contain internal tensions regarding safety and privacy that neither Congress nor the courts have adequately reconciled, and that important discrepancies regarding information sharing exist between IHEs' practices, the common law's demands, and FERPA's limitations.

Part I provides background on FERPA and argues that FERPA's emergency exception is too narrow and confusing, so that IHEs default to the nondisclosure option rather than disclosing information to third parties, such as parents, when students threaten to harm themselves or others. At the same time, FERPA's tax …

Reglering Av Överlåtna Förvaltningsuppgifter [Rules On Public Matters That Are Assigned To Non Government Subjects], Vilhelm Persson Dec 2007

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.
