Iqbal, Procedural Mismatches, And Civil Rights Litigation, Howard M. Wasserman Jan 2010

Iqbal, Procedural Mismatches, And Civil Rights Litigation, Howard M. Wasserman

Faculty Publications

Understanding the twin pleading cases of Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly and Ashcroft v. Iqbal from the vantage point of only a few months (or even years) requires as much prediction as explanation. Early confusion is a product of the long-heralded link between substance and procedure. What we are seeing now may be less about Court-imposed changes to procedure as about changes to substantive law and a "mismatch " between new substance and the old procedure of the Federal Rules.

Institutional Pluralism From The Standpoint Of Its Victims: Calling The Question On Indiscriminate (In)Tolerance, Jose M. Gabilondo

Faculty Publications

Borrowing from postmodernity, new Right intellectuals have become adept at plucking core terms from the liberal register, stripping away their history and social context, and making them do the conceptual work of backlash. A recent example is the theme of the 2009 annual meeting of the AALS: institutional pluralism. The phrase has a surface resemblance to traditional liberal values but, in truth, acts as a Trojan horse for discrimination projects that many may find troubling. By putting the phrase in its social context, this essay reveals the ideological interests at work in the idea.


The Intellectual History Of The Shortest Article In Law Review History, Erik M. Jensen Jan 2009

The Intellectual History Of The Shortest Article In Law Review History, Erik M. Jensen

Faculty Publications

"The Shortest Article in Law Review History" appeared in 2 to a mixture of acclaim ("Brilliant!"), horror ("Don't you have anything better not to do?"), and indifference ("Huh?"). Since then, many have asked how the article came into being and what its effect on legal scholarship has been. (Well, the author's mother and sister did once raise those questions, or one of them anyway.) This new article provides readers with just about everything needed to understand a twenty-first century development in the life of the mind.

The Fourteenth Rule, R. Lawrence Dessem Apr 2005

The Fourteenth Rule, R. Lawrence Dessem

Faculty Publications

Thirteen Rules for Taking Law Exams is vintage Phillips perhaps most significantly because of its wit. Rather than writing his essay in a straightforward manner, Professor Phillips satirized the common mistakes that are so prevalent in law school examination answers. Professor Phillips' first rule (“never spell correctly any word which is central to the content of the course”) is, in part, justified because such errors “weaken the teacher's resistance so that he will more readily accept greater errors to come.
