Protecting Our Protectors: Why Title Vii Should Apply To The Uniformed Military Following The Supreme Court's Decision In Bostock V. Clayton County, 2021 Marquette University Law School
Protecting Our Protectors: Why Title Vii Should Apply To The Uniformed Military Following The Supreme Court's Decision In Bostock V. Clayton County, Jonathan A. D'Orazio, Jd Candidate, 2022
Marquette Benefits and Social Welfare Law Review
This Note argues that Title VII should apply to uniformed military members following the Supreme Court’s decision in Bostock v. Clayton County, 140 S. Ct. 1731 (2020). Foremost, the current intra‑military remedies uniformed military members may bring a discrimination claim pursuant fail to effectively combat discrimination in the United States military due to several critical deficiencies. This Note demonstrates that the defects within the current intra‑military remedies tacitly permit, rather than discourage, discriminatory conduct.
This Note then examines why the military has historically resisted civilian reform measures to the military justice system. During this examination, this Note argues that …
The Impact Of Cultural Heritage On Japanese Towns And Villages, 2020 University of Tsukuba
The Impact Of Cultural Heritage On Japanese Towns And Villages, Yuichiro Tsuji Dr.
Seattle Journal of Technology, Environmental & Innovation Law
In 1954, when historically significant clays and clay pots were found in the Iba district of Shizuoka prefecture, the city applied to the prefectural education committee for a historic site designation. The committee granted this designation to the city..
However, in 1973 the education committee lifted its permission to promote development around the location. Historians have sought revocation of this decision under the Administrative Case Litigation Act (ACLA), but the Supreme Court has denied standing. By denying standing, the Japanese Supreme Court allows the prefecture to destroy a historical site.
First, this paper seeks to discuss the doctrine of standing …
The Role Of The Opioid Crisis In Elder Abuse, 2020 University of Southern Maine, Cutler Institute
The Role Of The Opioid Crisis In Elder Abuse, Kimberly I. Snow Mhsa, Jennifer Pratt, Stuart Bratesman Mpp
Disability & Aging
As the opioid crisis has deepened over the past twenty years, its effect on individuals and families, including older adults, has grown. To find out how the opioid crisis might be impacting elder abuse, neglect, and exploitation in Maine, we conducted a mixed methods analysis of 2015-2018 Maine Adult Protective Services (APS) investigations to determine: 1) Did opioid-related investigations increase over time? 2) Do investigations involving opioid misuse or abuse differ from investigations that don’t involve opioids? 3) What themes or features of cases involving opioid misuse or abuse by clients and/or perpetrators emerge from the data?
Key Findings: The …
Enough Is As Good As A Feast, 2020 Seattle University School of Law
Enough Is As Good As A Feast, Noah C. Chauvin
Seattle University Law Review
Ipse Dixit, the podcast on legal scholarship, provides a valuable service to the legal community and particularly to the legal academy. The podcast’s hosts skillfully interview guests about their legal and law-related scholarship, helping those guests communicate their ideas clearly and concisely. In this review essay, I argue that Ipse Dixit has made a major contribution to legal scholarship by demonstrating in its interview episodes that law review articles are neither the only nor the best way of communicating scholarly ideas. This contribution should be considered “scholarship,” because one of the primary goals of scholarship is to communicate new ideas.
Covid-19 And Its Impact On America's Retirement System, 2020 University of Missouri School of Law
Covid-19 And Its Impact On America's Retirement System, David M. English
Faculty Publications
There is a long-standing debate over whether America's retirement system is in crisis. The COVID-19 pandemic has resolved the debate. Perhaps the system was merely challenged prior to March 2020, but it is certainly in crisis now. The pandemic has negatively impacted all four of the principal pillars of retirement: Social Security, employer-sponsored retirement programs, earnings from part-time work, and the worker's own savings. This short article will discuss the impact of the pandemic on the retirement system and discuss possible ways to restore the system to health or at least ameliorate the damage.

Blockchain Wills, 2020 Pace University School of Law
Blockchain Wills, Bridget J. Crawford
Indiana Law Journal
Blockchain technology has the potential to radically alter the way that people have
executed wills for centuries. This Article makes two principal claims—one
descriptive and the other normative. Descriptively, this Article suggests that
traditional wills formalities have been relaxed to the point that they no longer serve
the cautionary, protective, evidentiary, and channeling functions that scholars have
used to justify strict compliance with wills formalities. Widespread use of digital
technology in everyday communications has led to several notable cases in which
individuals have attempted to execute wills electronically. These wills have had a
mixed reception. Four states currently recognize electronic …
Emergency Parole Release For Older Parole-Eligible Doc Inmates, 2020 Washington and Lee University School of Law
Emergency Parole Release For Older Parole-Eligible Doc Inmates, David I. Bruck
Scholarly Articles
Professor Bruck writes to Secretary Moran and Chairwoman Bennett to urge them to protect elderly Virginia prison inmates from the risk of death from COVID-19 by granting immediate parole release to as many over-60 parole-eligible prisoners as possible, upon a showing that they are at low risk to re-offend, and have a supportive home to go to once released.
Telehealth For An Aging Population: How Can Law Influence Adoption Among Providers, Payors, And Patients?, 2020 Boston University School of Law
Telehealth For An Aging Population: How Can Law Influence Adoption Among Providers, Payors, And Patients?, Tara Sklar, Christopher Robertson
Faculty Scholarship
Telehealth continues to experience substantial investment, innovation, and unprecedented growth. However, telehealth has been slow to transform healthcare. Recent developments in telehealth technologies suggest great potential for chronic care management, mental health services, and care delivery in the home—all of which should be particularly impactful for an aging population with physical and cognitive limitations. While this alignment of technological capacity and market demand is promising, legal barriers remain for telehealth operators to scale up across large geographic areas. To better understand how federal and state law can be reformed to enable greater telehealth utilization, we review and extract lessons from …
The Coronavirus And The Risks To The Elderly In Long-Term Care, 2020 University of Michigan Law School
The Coronavirus And The Risks To The Elderly In Long-Term Care, William Gardner, David States, Nicholas Bagley
Articles
The elderly in long-term care (LTC) and their caregiving staff are at elevated risk from COVID-19. Outbreaks in LTC facilities can threaten the health care system. COVID-19 suppression should focus on testing and infection control at LTC facilities. Policies should also be developed to ensure that LTC facilities remain adequately staffed and that infection control protocols are closely followed. Family will not be able to visit LTC facilities, increasing isolation and vulnerability to abuse and neglect. To protect residents and staff, supervision of LTC facilities should remain a priority during the pandemic.
