Implikasi Ketatanegaraan Presidential Term Limit Menurut Pasal 7 Undang-Undang Dasar 1945 Sebelum Amendemen Terhadap Presidential Continuism Masa Orde Baru, Moch Chafid
"Dharmasisya” Jurnal Program Magister Hukum FHUI
President term limit should not be interpreted as only one measure and is merely legal-formalistic. This will have an administrative implication that every president in power will try to preserve his power (presidential continuism) by changing, avoiding, reinterpreting, amending the constitution or even removing the statute of limitations on the term of office of the president in Article 7 of the 1945 Constitution before the amendment. The form can influence the position and authority of the MPR as the highest institution of people's sovereignty, the general election system and the president, changes in the composition of the people's representatives in …
Deepfake Privacy: Attitudes And Regulation, Matthew B. Kugler, Carly Pace
Deepfake Privacy: Attitudes And Regulation, Matthew B. Kugler, Carly Pace
Northwestern University Law Review
Using only a series of images of a person’s face and publicly available software, it is now possible to insert the person’s likeness into a video and show them saying or doing almost anything. This “deepfake” technology has permitted an explosion of political satire and, especially, fake pornography. Several states have already passed laws regulating deepfakes, and more are poised to do so. This Article presents three novel empirical studies that assess public attitudes toward this new technology. In our main study, a representative sample of the U.S. adult population perceived nonconsensually created pornographic deepfake videos as extremely harmful and …

The legal transplant of international legal principles must also consider the existing legal rules and …

Of the many cases of land emerging in Indonesia often collide with many aspects of application, namely the clash between national law/positive law and the original law/customary law on the local community, or clash with multiple ownership of a land object. To examine this issue, it is of course worth a further review of why this can happen, and need to reflect on whether what makes this phenomenon appear to be so difficult to find a definite solution. Then it can not be denied again the rise of land brokering practices that make Indonesia increasingly becoming a very difficult country …

The number of smokers and cigarette sales in Indonesia has been increasing every year. In parallel with that, the latent risk faced by society is increased. In the socio-cultural context, the cigarette industry has been transformed into a hegemony whose expansion is unstoppable. The circulation of cigarette products is still become an unresolvable problem. Such problem expands from merely legal issues to the ethical dimension. The corporate social responsibility carried out by the corporation tends to be in favor of promotional motive, or creating false public reputation, which makes its implementation often deviate from its philosophy. Inevitably, the smoking phenomenon …

Endangered Claims, Brooke D. Coleman
William & Mary Law Review
Litigants—like organisms in an ecosystem—must evolve to survive our civil justice system. When procedural rules and doctrines that govern civil litigation change, litigants must respond. In some cases, litigants will adapt to the rules. In others, they will migrate to alternative fora to capitalize on the new environment’s rules. For those who cannot adapt or migrate, their claims will go extinct.
This Article chronicles the evolution story of federal civil litigation by examining how, in response to changing procedural rules and doctrines, parties and their claims adapt, migrate, or go extinct. It shows that throughout this evolution, claims by the …

In this research, I tried to verify how the Egyptian Civil Law deals with the rule “Lesson in Contracts is for the Purposes and Meanings not for the Words and Says" which explains the contradiction between wordings of the contract and the real intent of the contracting parties, because it affects the parties’ obligations. For that purpose, understanding the rule from its origin (The science of the general rules of the jurisprudence) understanding its applications and verifying how other legislations deals with it is a must.
Although the Egyptian civil law has not mentioned this case, I tried to find …
The Informed Consent Doctrine In Legal Malpractice Law, Vincent R. Johnson
The Informed Consent Doctrine In Legal Malpractice Law, Vincent R. Johnson
St. Mary's Journal on Legal Malpractice & Ethics
The doctrine of informed consent is now deeply embedded into the law of legal ethics. In legal malpractice litigation, the doctrine holds that a lawyer has a duty to disclose to a client material information about the risks and alternatives associated with a course of action. A lawyer who fails to make such required disclosures and fails to obtain informed consent is negligent, regardless of whether the lawyer otherwise exercises care in representing a client. If such negligent nondisclosures cause damages, the lawyer can be held accountable for the client’s losses.
Shifting the focus of a legal malpractice action from …

The Implausibility Standard For Environmental Plaintiffs: The Twiqbal Plausibility Pleading Standard And Affirmative Defenses, Celeste Anquonette Ajayi
Washington Law Review
Environmental plaintiffs often face challenges when pleading their claims. This is due to difficulty in obtaining the particular facts needed to establish causation, and thus liability. In turn, this difficulty inhibits their ability to vindicate their rights. Prior to the shift in pleading standards created by Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly and Ashcroft v. Iqbal, often informally referred to as “Twiqbal,” plaintiffs could assert their claims through the simplified notice pleading standard articulated in Conley v. Gibson. This allowed plaintiffs to gain access to discovery, which aided in proving their claims.
The current heightened pleading standard …
Police Or Pirates? Reforming Washington's Civil Asset Forfeiture System, Jasmin Chigbrow
Police Or Pirates? Reforming Washington's Civil Asset Forfeiture System, Jasmin Chigbrow
Washington Law Review
Civil asset forfeiture laws permit police officers to seize property they suspect is connected to criminal activity and sell or retain the property for the police department’s use. In many states, including Washington, civil forfeiture occurs independent of any criminal case—many property owners are never charged with the offense police allege occurred. Because the government is not required to file criminal charges, property owners facing civil forfeiture lack the constitutional safeguards normally guaranteed to defendants in the criminal justice system: the right to an attorney, the presumption of innocence, the government’s burden to prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt, …

Today the world is tackling climate change. The global threat of energy poverty along with the growing need for energy has escalated this crisis.
