Restore, Revert, Repeat: Examining The Decompensation Cycle And The Due Process Limitations On The Treatment Of Incompetent Defendants, Margaret W. Smith Jan 2018

Restore, Revert, Repeat: Examining The Decompensation Cycle And The Due Process Limitations On The Treatment Of Incompetent Defendants, Margaret W. Smith

Vanderbilt Law Review

Though correctional facilities are one of the largest providers of mental health care in the country, the treatment provided often fails to address the needs of many mentally ill inmates. Indeed, after receiving treatment at a state mental health facility, many pretrial detainees who have been recently restored to competency revert to an incompetent state-or decompensate-upon their return to jail, at which point they must return to the state treatment facility to be restored to competency once again. This Note is the first to explore this "decompensation cycle," highlighting the significance of the problem and demonstrating how mental health treatment …

Decriminalization Of Prostitution: The Soros Effect, Jody Raphael Jan 2018

Decriminalization Of Prostitution: The Soros Effect, Jody Raphael

Dignity: A Journal of Analysis of Exploitation and Violence

This article explores the activities of George Soros and his charitable organization, Open Society Foundations (OSF), in advocating for the full decriminalization of the sex trade industry. Research finds that OSF spends only a small amount of money on grass roots “sex worker” groups around the world advocating for full decriminalization, but the foundation awards larger amounts of funds to large human rights groups whose reports and policies have a wider reach. OSF’s rationale for full decriminalization fails to consider violence and coercion in the sex trade industry, misreads research, and does not include research from venues where full decriminalization …

Emtala's Impact On Patients' Rights In Colorado Emergency Rooms, Jack Vihstadt Jan 2018

Emtala's Impact On Patients' Rights In Colorado Emergency Rooms, Jack Vihstadt

University of Colorado Law Review

During the Reagan Administration, Congress enacted the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA) to crack down on hospital emergency departments (EDs) that were refusing to treat poor patients. The Act prohibited EDs from screening patients based on their ability to pay. Thirty years later, EDs have used provisions of the Act to dodge questions from curious patients about their treatment options and costs. In 2016, two Democrats introduced a bill into the Colorado General Assembly that would provide a warning to emergency department patients without an emergency condition that an urgent care center or a primary care physician may …
