El Fraude Político En La Argentina, Horacio M. Lynch
Horacio M. LYNCH
Ensayo que indaga el concepto del “fraude electoral o político” buscando la acepción correcta del término y de sus maniobras conexas, y eventualmente cómo pueden denominarse las actividades enderezadas a manipular la opinión pública para influir en el resultado de las elecciones entorpeciendo el libre ejercicio del sufragio (¿delitos contra la Constitución?) y eventualmente cómo pueden prevenirse y sancionarse. En la Ia. Parte se indaga (a) en su acepción amplia, sobre el fraude electoral en la Argentina a lo largo de un siglo: sus prácticas iniciales y como ha ido evolucionando y sofisticando; (b) en qué medida maniobras de manipulación …

No Good Deed Goes Unpublished: Precedent-Stripping And The Need For A New Prophylactic Rule, Edward Cantu
No Good Deed Goes Unpublished: Precedent-Stripping And The Need For A New Prophylactic Rule, Edward Cantu

This paper addresses the “open secret” that federal appellate courts often strip their opinions of precedential value as a means to forgo fair, principled and/or thorough adjudication of issues raised in appeals. Is there a basis in contemporary constitutional doctrine for a presumption that appellants suffer constitutional injury when courts dispose of their appeals using non-precedential opinions?

Clear As Mud: How The Uncertain Precedential Status Of Unpublished Opinions Muddles Qualified Immunity Determinations, David R. Cleveland

While unpublished opinions are now freely citeable under Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 32.1, their precedential value remains uncertain. This ambiguity muddles the already unclear law surrounding qualified immunity and denies courts valuable precedents for making fair and consistent judgments on these critical civil rights issues. When faced with a claim that they have violated a person’s civil rights, government officials typically claim qualified immunity. The test is whether they have violated “clearly established law.” Unfortunately, the federal circuits differ on whether unpublished opinions may be used in determining clearly established law. This article, Clear as Mud: How the Uncertain …
