Multiple Jurisdiction--Will It Save Or Destroy The Oceans? Political Analysis Of A Legal Problem, Charles F. Doran
Multiple Jurisdiction--Will It Save Or Destroy The Oceans? Political Analysis Of A Legal Problem, Charles F. Doran
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
The recent trend of claims to the ocean and its riches has led far beyond the liberal twelve nautical mile territorial sea limit that the United States is prepared to recognize. In particular, two documents, the Declaration of Santo Domingo, proposing a "patrimonial sea" of 200 miles, and the draft articles on an "exclusive economic zone" of 200 miles submitted by Kenya, are likely to find much favor at the substantive session of the Third Law of the Sea Conference to be held at Caracas in the summer of 1974. Emerging from conflicts of interest, which have gradually eroded the …

The Development Of A United States Approach Toward The International Court Of Justice, Philip C. Jessup
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
This article is not designed as a history of the International Court of Justice, nor as a legal analysis of the way in which the Court functions. Rather, the purpose is to describe the attitude of the United States, i.e., the Department of State, toward the actual use of the Court in a variety of situations, some of which involved important interests of the United States and others of which did not. The concentration in this article is on the jurisdiction of the Court to give advisory opinions, since it is in connection with proposals to request such opinions that …
Congressional Authority To Restrict Lower Federal Court Jurisdiction, Theodore Eisenberg
Congressional Authority To Restrict Lower Federal Court Jurisdiction, Theodore Eisenberg
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
Separation of powers in the federal government inevitably generates conflicts among the branches. In recent years the executive branch's authority to impound funds appropriated by Congress and to make war without congressional approval has been questioned. In earlier days debate raged over the Supreme Court's authority to nullify legislation passed by Congress. A recurrent example of this phenomenon has been the struggle between Congress and the judiciary over the scope of congressional control of federal court jurisdiction. The recent controversy over school busing has highlighted this problem. The problem is, however, neither novel nor peculiar to the busing issue. In …

French Nuclear Testing And Article 41--Another Blow To The Authority Of The Court?, Jerome B. Elkind
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
On the 23rd of July 1973, at 9:00 a.m. New Zealand time, members of the crew of the New Zealand vessel, Otago, witnessed a nuclear explosion on one of the islands in the Mururoa atoll. The blast, a small one in the low kiloton range, marked the beginning of the eighth series of French atmospheric nuclear tests, which have been conducted in the Pacific since July 1966 when France moved its nuclear test site from the Reggane Firing Ground in the Sahara. Since that time the French nuclear tests have been a perennial sore spot in the diplomatic relations between …

Recent Developments, Charles A. Schliebs
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
The traditional American "locality" test' for admiralty tort (subject-matter) jurisdiction, which posits the occurrence of the tort on navigable waters as the controlling factor, has suffered mounting criticism through the years because it has resulted in unwarranted expansion of admiralty jurisdiction. Numerous federal courts consequently have suggested the need of an additional requirement that the claim involve some sort of traditional maritime activity to invoke admiralty jurisdiction. The Supreme Court, however, used only the locality test prior to deciding Executive Jet Aviation, Inc. v. City of Cleveland, in which the Court found both the historical requirement of locality and a …

The Statutory Proposal To Regulate The Jurisdictional Immunities Of Foreign States, R. Lee Bennett
The Statutory Proposal To Regulate The Jurisdictional Immunities Of Foreign States, R. Lee Bennett
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
In January 1973, the Departments of State and Justice submitted to Congress a draft bill that defines the jurisdictional immunities of foreign states in United States courts. This draft legislation represents a major shift in the State Department's posture on the substantive and procedural issues of sovereign immunity that will undoubtedly stir considerable controversy within the international bar during its examination by Congress.
A survey of current United States practice regarding the immunity of foreign states reveals that reform is mandatory. At present the determination whether a foreign state is entitled to jurisdictional immunity is made by the courts, whose …

Recent Treaties And Statutes, Donald C. Van Pelt, Jr., George H. Carnall Ii
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
The Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs, 1961, constituted a major step toward international acceptance of responsibility for the control of licit and illicit drug traffic. The Single Convention achieved a unified codification4 of existing multilateral treaties in the field' and created the International Narcotics Control Board (INCB), center of illicit traffic...In an effort to carry out the principle of limiting the use of narcotic drugs to medical and scientific purposes, the Narcotics Convention of 1931 required noncontracting parties as well as parties to the Convention to furnish annual advance estimates of narcotics needed for these purposes. These estimates were examined …
