Erie And Preemption: Killing One Bird With Two Stones, Jeffrey Rensberger
Erie And Preemption: Killing One Bird With Two Stones, Jeffrey Rensberger
Indiana Law Journal
The Supreme Court has developed a standard account of the Erie doctrine. The Court has directed different analyses of Erie cases depending upon whether the federal law in question is in the form of a federal rule (or statute) or is instead a judge-made law. But the cases applying the doctrine are difficult to explain using the standard account. Although the Court and commentators have noted that Erie is a type of preemption, they provide little, if any, rigorous analysis of Erie in light of preemption doctrines. This Article attempts to fill that void, offering an extended analysis of Erie …

Standing; Assertion Of Jus Tertii; Sex Discrimination; Equal Protection; Twenty-First Amendment; Craig V. Boren, Anthony Sadowski
Akron Law Review
"A PPELLANTS brought an action in the United States District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma seeking declaratory and injunctive relief. The complaint charged that the operation of two Oklahoma statutes, which prohibited the sale of 3.2% beer to males under the age of 21 while allowing females over the age of 18 to purchase the commodity, violated the fourteenth amendment to the Federal Constitution. The three-judge court held that the gender-based classification did not violate the equal protection clause. In Craig v. Boren, on direct appeal, the United States Supreme Court reversed, finding that the gender-based classification could …

In Rem Jurisdiction; Attachment Of Insurance Debts; State Statutes; O'Connorv. Lee-Hy Paving Corp., Eloise Lubbinge Mackus
Akron Law Review
The United States Court of Appeals, Second Circuit, in O'Connor v. Lee-Hy Paving Corp., upheld New York's insurance attachment procedure which serves as a vehicle for gaining personal jurisdiction over out-of-state defendants in causes of action that arise outside of New York. The court thereby determined that New York federal courts, in applying the procedures, had not violated defendant's due process because the minimum contacts requirement of the recent United Stated Supreme Court case, Shaffer v. Heitner, had been met.

Local Rules Of Court, J. Patrick Browne
Local Rules Of Court, J. Patrick Browne
Akron Law Review
In the vast majority of cases, the Ohio Rules of Civil Procedure will be the primary source of authority governing the practice and procedure to be followed. But in some instances, the primary source of authority will be statutory, and the applicable sections of the Ohio Revised Code may or may not be supplemented by the Ohio Rules of Civil Procedure.

Failure Of Commencement, The Forgotten Defense - A Comment On Ohio Civil Rule 3(A), Virginia L. Scigliano
Akron Law Review
This article will provide an in depth analysis of Rule 3(A). The analysis is divided into four sections. The first section examines the historical development of Rule 3(A) and the problems that developed and exist today. Section two discusses the meanings and specific interpretations given to the language of the rule. The unstated prerequisites of existence and capacity are analyzed in section three. And, in section four, Rule 3(A)'s forgotten defense is discussed and a model is developed for using the defense of failure to commence.
Refereeing The Referees: The Continuing Procedural Muddle In Cases Of General Reference Pursuant To Ohio Rule Of Civil Procedure 53, Richard P. Perna
Refereeing The Referees: The Continuing Procedural Muddle In Cases Of General Reference Pursuant To Ohio Rule Of Civil Procedure 53, Richard P. Perna
Akron Law Review
The judicial reference device set out in Rule 53 of the Ohio Rules of Civil Procedure was touted in 1974 as a procedure capable of relieving the "problem of justice delayed" by "easing the increasing judicial burden" on a besieged judiciary." While judicial reference is certainly no panacea for the problem (if numbers alone are a valid indicator), it is difficult to refute claims that the reference device contributes to a more efficient and speedy administration of justice.
The Recent Amendment To Ohio Revised Code Section 2317.48, Kim M. Aumiller
The Recent Amendment To Ohio Revised Code Section 2317.48, Kim M. Aumiller
Akron Law Review
Revised Code § 2317.48 was designed to enable a plaintiff to obtain information necessary to the drafting of a complaint. This discovery statute is one of the few statutes which was not repealed with the enactment of the Ohio Rules of Civil Procedure in 1970.
What one will not find, however, is the precise procedure to be followed in utilizing this discovery action. The procedural statutes which existed in the Revised Code were repealed upon enactment of the Civil Rules. Since then it has been difficult to know which procedural rules apply to Revised Code § 2317.48. Before the enactment …

Symposium: Erie Under Advisement: The Doctrine After Shady Grove; Forward: Erie's Gift, Jay Tidmarsh
Akron Law Review
A forward to the articles in this journal. All the articles manifest concern for the constitutional and structural concerns that animated Erie and its procedural progeny. Several articles, especially those by Professors Doernberg, Koppel, and Stempel examine the jurisprudential commitments underlying the Erie doctrine in general and the various opinions in Shady Grove in particular. Professors Genetin and Friedenthal examine the difficulties of, respectively, statutory and rule interpretation in the Erie context. Professor Koppel emphasizes the value of procedural uniformity. Professor Doernberg evaluates the relationship between the procedural Erie doctrine and concerns for federalism. Mr. Gaber brings some realpolitik to …
Mixing Law And Equity Causes Of Action Does Not Preclude A Jury Trial, Philip M. Halpern
Mixing Law And Equity Causes Of Action Does Not Preclude A Jury Trial, Philip M. Halpern
Pace Law Review
This article addresses the issue of the preclusion of jury trials in actions which contemplate both legal and equitable relief. Part II of this article addresses the constitutional and statutory history of New York Civil Practice Law and Rules (“CPLR”) Section 4101 concerning issues triable by a jury and the dichotomy between those actions triable by a jury and equitable actions triable by the court alone. Part III of this article addresses the interplay between CPLR Sections 4101 and 4102, concerning demand and waiver of trial by jury, and the analysis developed by the courts to determine whether a jury …

Nevada Supreme Court Summaries
The Court determined the proper relationship between NRCP 15(a) and NRCP 16(b), and explored whether a proposed amendment under NRCP 15(a) can be deemed “futile” because it is unsupported by, or contradicts, factual evidence produced during discovery.

At The Fontier Of The Younger Doctrine: Reflections On Google V. Hood, Gil Seinfeld
At The Fontier Of The Younger Doctrine: Reflections On Google V. Hood, Gil Seinfeld
Articles
On December 19, 2014, long-simmering tensions between Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood and the search engine giant Google boiled over into federal court when Google filed suit against the Attorney General to enjoin him from bringing civil or criminal charges against it for alleged violations of the Mississippi Consumer Protection Act. Hood had been investigating and threatening legal action against Google for over a year for its alleged failure to do enough to prevent its search engine, advertisements, and YouTube website from facilitating public access to illegal, dangerous, or copyright protected goods. The case has garnered a great deal of …

Faculty Works
This article explains who wins residential property tax appeals in Cook County, Illinois. It does so by collecting and combining public sector data, which has been recently released by the Cook County Assessor. The article then uses this data to compute three statistics. Lastly, it contextualizes each statistic in order to determine if some townships, or groups of townships, win more appeals than expected.

A Survey Of Illinois Code Of Civil Procedure Section 2-619(A), 48 J. Marshall L. Rev. 1009 (2015), Wm. Dennis Huber
UIC Law Review
The paper examines the requirements of each section of Illinois Code of Civil Procedure Section 2-619(a) in greater depth by examining appellate and Illinois Supreme Court rulings in cases brought under each section of 2-619(a). It also analyzes the standards of review appellate courts apply under each section of 2-619(a). Finally, because 619(a) motions require affidavits in support of the motion, it is also necessary to consider the nature and sufficiency of affidavits
