Poverty, The Great Unequalizer: Improving The Delivery System For Civil Legal Aid, 2017 The Catholic University of America, Columbus School of Law
Poverty, The Great Unequalizer: Improving The Delivery System For Civil Legal Aid, Latonia Haney Keith
Catholic University Law Review
When individuals in the United States face civil justice issues, they are not entitled to legal counsel and therefore must secure paid counsel, proceed pro se or qualify for free legal assistance. As a result of the economic downturn, the number of Americans who are unable to afford legal counsel is now at an all-time high. In response to this ever-widening justice gap, the public interest community has launched multiple initiatives to supplement the underfunded legal aid system. Though valiant, this article argues that this approach has unfortunately created a complex, fragmented and overlapping delivery system for legal aid. This …

Realizing An Opportunity: Limiting The Power Of The Executive In The Iraqi Constitution, 2017 Indiana University Maurer School of Law
Realizing An Opportunity: Limiting The Power Of The Executive In The Iraqi Constitution, Cory Kopitzke
Indiana Journal of Constitutional Design
In the summer of 2015, Iraqi citizens took to the streets in protest. After going without essential services, such as electricity, in the sweltering heat and after enduring corruption that undermined Iraqi forces battling the Islamic State, these citizens called for meaningful changes in the management of the Iraqi government and for the fulfillment of “democratic aspirations” enshrined in the Iraqi Constitution. In response to these protests, Iraqi Prime Minister, Haider al-Abadi, proposed sweeping reform measures to combat the decisive divides in the current administration. These reforms called for drastic change—including the elimination of the vice-president and deputy prime minister …

The Criminalization Of Walking, 2017 Touro Law Center
The Criminalization Of Walking, Michael Lewyn
Scholarly Works
The simple act of walking is sometimes criminalized in the United States. Anti-jaywalking statutes and ordinances—originally motivated by auto-industry lobbyists in the 1920s—call for fines and, sometimes, imprisonment for crossing the street. Additionally, some localities have interpreted statutes against “child neglect” to encompass a parent’s decision to let their kid walk outside alone. The result of this criminalization? Such policies have reduced pedestrian liberty, increased automobile traffic and pollution, and created a disincentive for physical activity in the midst of an obesity and diabetes epidemic. In addition to discussing these effects, this Article argues that the purported safety benefits of …

Major League Soccer As A Case Study In Complexity Theory, 2017 UCLA School of Law
Major League Soccer As A Case Study In Complexity Theory, Steven A. Bank
Florida State University Law Review
Major League Soccer has long been criticized for its “Byzantine” roster rules and regulations, rivaled only by the Internal Revenue Code in its complexity. Is this criticism fair? By delving into complexity theory and the unique nature of the league, this Article argues that the traditional complaints may not apply in the context of the league’s roster rules. Effectively, critics are applying the standard used to evaluate the legal complexity found in rules such as statutes and regulations when the standard used to evaluate contractual complexity is more appropriate. Major League Soccer’s system of roster rules is the product of …

The Return Of The Unprovided-For Case, 2017 College of William and Mary
The Return Of The Unprovided-For Case, Michael S. Green
Georgia Law Review
The unprovided-for case is a puzzle that arises under
governmental interest analysis, the predominant choice-of-
law approach in the United States. As its name suggests,
in the unprovided-for case the law of no jurisdiction seems
to apply. There is a gap in the law. After its discovery by
Brainerd Currie in the 1950s, the unprovided-for case
proved to be an embarrassment for interest analysts and a
focal point for critics.
In 1989, however, Larry Kramer published an argument
that the unprovided-for case is a myth. There is no gap in
the law. Kramer's argument has been well-received, so
much so …
