Full Faith And Credit, More Or Less, To Judgments: Doubts About Thomas V. Washington Gas Light Co., Stewart E. Sterk Jan 1981

Full Faith And Credit, More Or Less, To Judgments: Doubts About Thomas V. Washington Gas Light Co., Stewart E. Sterk

Faculty Articles

Workmen's compensation awards, decrees of administrative tribunals rather than courts, present the question of how far the mandate of the full faith and credit clause should reach and whether the clause should bar a claimant from pursuing supplemental compensation in a second state. Recently, in Thomas v. Washington Gas Light Co., the Supreme Court decided that full faith and credit should not prevent a claimant from obtaining supplemental compensation. Professor Sterk criticizes the Court's analysis, demonstrating the Thomas Court's neglect of the federal interests that the clause should protect. After examining the clause and its policy underpinnings, Professor Sterk …

Protected Concerted Activity In The Non-Union Context: Limitations On The Employer's Rights To Discipline Or Discharge Employees, Judith J. Johnson Jan 1978

Protected Concerted Activity In The Non-Union Context: Limitations On The Employer's Rights To Discipline Or Discharge Employees, Judith J. Johnson

Journal Articles

To the extent possible, this Article will be devoted to the situation in which there is no union or union organizational activity. It should be recognized that since the National Labor Relations Act does not distinguish between the statutory rights of union and non-union employees, many of the cases involving the protected concerted activities of union members are persuasive, if not binding, authority in the non-union context. The limitations placed by the Act on employers' rights will be delineated by an examination of the four factors upon which the courts have placed emphasis-definition of the term "concerted," proper purposes of …

Note, Equal Pay Act - Economic Benefit To Employer Is Justification For Wage Differential Between Male And Female Employees, Judith J. Johnson Jan 1973

Note, Equal Pay Act - Economic Benefit To Employer Is Justification For Wage Differential Between Male And Female Employees, Judith J. Johnson

Journal Articles

In Robert Hall the court refused to follow the lead of the cases immediately preceding it which delved into the justifications for wage differentials to discover evidence of discrimination. If the Equal Pay Act is to be effective, the courts must discover the motive for paying women less, not just accept the employer's excuse at face value. Robert Hall may represent a step backward for the Equal Pay Act and the ramifications of the decision should be carefully studied before it is allowed to stand. This decision could be broadly construed to enable an employer to undermine the Act by …

Collective Bargaining Without Work Stoppage?, Alvin L. Goldman

Law Faculty Scholarly Articles

Legal institutions have provided us with numerous spectator sports. The jury trial and its predecessors, including trial by combat, are obvious examples. In the mid-nineteenth century, arguments before the Supreme Court of the United States occasionally attracted crowds of spectators and captured the front pages of the yellow press. In more recent times, proxy fights have been rumored to provide action for the bookmaking set and televised legislative investigations have won top-viewer ratings. Among the perennial spectator sports provided by our legal institutions over the past half-century or more has been the confrontation of labor and management across the collective …
