Statutes Of Ill Repose And Threshold Canons Of Construction: A Unified Approach To Ambiguity After San Carlos Apache Tribe V. United States, Daniel Lee
Seattle University Law Review
Historically, the San Carlos Apache Tribe depended on the Gila River to irrigate crops and sustain a population of around 14,000 tribe members. The river is also sacred to the Tribe and central to the Tribe’s culture and spirituality. Initially, the federal government had recognized the Tribe’s dependence on the Gila River by reserving, under the Winters doctrine, water rights necessary to support the San Carlos Apache Reservation. Acting as the Tribe’s trustee, the United States entered into the Globe Equity Decree (the Decree), which prevented the San Carlos Apache Tribe from claiming water rights under the Winters doctrine and …
Annual Brainerd Currie Lecture: How Modern Choice Of Law Helped To Kill The Private Attorney General, Erin O'Hara O'Connor
Annual Brainerd Currie Lecture: How Modern Choice Of Law Helped To Kill The Private Attorney General, Erin O'Hara O'Connor
Mercer Law Review
This Essay will briefly explain Currie's approach to choice of law and its significant influence for modern choice-of-law approaches. It will then explain how one of those approaches, the Restatement (Second) of Conflict of Laws,3 both facilitated further state experimentation with choice-of-law policies and enabled private parties to gain some certainty regarding the governing law for contracts. This Essay will show how the choice-of-law clauses sanctioned in the Second Restatement work in tandem with other choice clauses to enable private parties to avoid undesired laws. Finally, this Essay will argue that the choice clauses have led to the demise of …

Educating The Underground: The Constitutionality Of Non-Residence Based Immigrant In-State Tuition Laws, Alexander F.A. Rabanal
Educating The Underground: The Constitutionality Of Non-Residence Based Immigrant In-State Tuition Laws, Alexander F.A. Rabanal
Chicago-Kent Law Review
Recent political discourse on undocumented immigration has triggered questions regarding the extent to which the individual states are preempted from making undocumented immigrants eligible for certain state benefits. In-state tuition, in particular, has become a site of contentious debate. This Note examines whether states may, consistent with federal law and federal preemption principles, make undocumented students eligible to matriculate at public universities at the in-state rate. Part I of this Note provides historical background on the development of the federal exclusivity principle in matters of immigration law. Part II examines the federal laws against which immigrant in-state tuition laws are …

The Patriot Act: Liberty Afire, Mark Fox
The Patriot Act: Liberty Afire, Mark Fox
Themis: Research Journal of Justice Studies and Forensic Science
The USA PATRIOT Act was written and passed into law in the United States within weeks of the devastating 9/11 terrorist attack. Its purpose was to strengthen and realign U.S. policy to allow greater judicial power to better protect the U.S. from further acts of terrorism. However, as the legal tenets of the Act became more transparent, public concern mounted over the wide latitude given to the governmental agencies that seemed to threaten academic and intellectual freedom and overall civil liberties. The problems inherent in the USA PATRIOT Act are described, and potential amendments and improvements have been suggested.
Confirmation Bias: The Pitfall Of Forensic Science, Scott Moser
Confirmation Bias: The Pitfall Of Forensic Science, Scott Moser
Themis: Research Journal of Justice Studies and Forensic Science
As it stands, forensic science and its practitioners are held in high regard in criminal court proceedings due to their ability to discover irrefutable facts that would otherwise go unnoticed. Nevertheless, forensic scientists can fall victim to natural logical fallacies. More specifically, confirmation bias is “a proclivity to search for or interpret additional information to confirm beliefs and to steer clear of information that may disagree with those prior beliefs” (Budlowe et al., 2009, p. 803). To restore the integrity of the forensic sciences, the sources of confirmation bias need to be identified and eliminated. Accordingly, empirical studies have given …

Rethinking Legal Globalization: The Case Of Transnational Personal Jurisdiction, Donald Earl Childress Iii
Rethinking Legal Globalization: The Case Of Transnational Personal Jurisdiction, Donald Earl Childress Iii
William & Mary Law Review
Under what circumstances may a United States court exercise personal jurisdiction over alien defendants? Courts and commentators have yet to offer a coherent response to this question. That is surprising given that scholars have been calling for the globalization of U.S. law since the late 1980s as part of a transnational litigation narrative.
Through doctrinal and empirical analysis, this Article argues that a U.S. court should have power to exercise personal jurisdiction over an alien defendant not served with process within a state’s borders when (1) the defendant has received constitutionally adequate notice, (2) the state has a constitutionally sufficient …

Ecuador’S Decision To Grant Asylum To Julian Assange : The Manifestation Of Human Security?, Atik Kusriyati
Indonesian Journal of International Law
Ecuador’s decision to grant asylum to Julian Assange (Australian citizen) on August 16, 2012 has caused several impacts. Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks, was arrested in Britain in connection with a Swedish investigation into accusations of sexual offenses. But United States Law enforcement official said that the fact that he was in custody did not affect their deliberations about whether he might be charged in this country in connection with publication of leaked government documents. Being disappointed with the decission, the British authorities sent a written notice to the Ecuador’s Embassy in London that they would assault the Embassy …

Federalism As A Preventative Measure: Avoiding State Enforcement Of Federal Anti-Gun Legislation In 2013, Brielle Hunt
Richmond Journal of Law and the Public Interest
This comment will delve into this question, seeking to answer whether or not the Constitution allows states to refuse to comply with federal law. This analysis requires the application of a constitutional principle that reaches far beyond the scope of the Right to Bear Arms; it calls into play the vertical separation of powers and the rights belonging to state sovereigns described in the Tenth Amendment. The comment will proceed as follows. Part II will address the constitutionality of House Bill 2340, compared against other kinds of legislation and in light of case law. It will be argued that the …

Who's The Boss? A Distinction Without A Difference, Lakisha A. Davis
Barry Law Review
This case note provides the factual background of Vance v. Ball State and briefly summarizes the legal precedent behind the decision. It analyzes the opinion of the Court, suggesting that the decision severely limited the essential protections against workplace harassment provided by Title VII, consequently making it more difficult for employees to prove employer vicarious liability for workplace harassment.
