Bringing The Camel Into The Tent: State And Federal Power Over Electricity Transmission , Cassandra Burke Robertson
Cleveland State Law Review
This paper provides a framework for understanding the current controversy regarding jurisdiction over the power grid, and provides policy-oriented solutions to ensure an adequate, low-cost transmission supply. The main thesis of this paper is that sound transmission policy requires greater federal power, and that Congress is better equipped than the courts to enact such policy. To this end, Part I of the paper offers an historical outline of the problem and analyzes the statutes and regulations that form the backbone of both the federal and state jurisdictional claims.

Playing God: An Essay On Law, Philosophy, And American Capital Punishment, Samuel J. Levine
Scholarly Works
This article looks at the capital sentencer's decision: Whether a death-eligible defendant will in fact receive the death sentence.
