Criminal Forfeiture Procedure In 2013: An Annual Survey Of Developments In The Case Law, Stefan D. Cassella
Stefan D Cassella
This is another in a series of articles on developments in the federal case law relating to criminal forfeiture procedure. It covers the cases decided in 2012 and early 2013. The article begins with the cases that illustrate the concept that criminal forfeiture is part of the defendant’s sentence in a criminal case. It then takes the reader more or less chronologically through the litigation of a case, beginning with the seizure and restraint of the property and continuing through the trial and sentencing of the defendant and the adjudication of third-party issues in the post-trial ancillary proceeding. Except in …

Civil Asset Recovery: The American Experience, Stefan D. Cassella

The article traces the American experience with the civil, or non-conviction-based, forfeiture of the proceeds and instruments of crime, with an eye toward how that experience might inform the drafting of similar legislation in the non-common law countries of the European Union.
Opening Up Personal Data Protection : A Conceptual Controversy, 2012 Law, Science, Technology & Society @ Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Opening Up Personal Data Protection : A Conceptual Controversy, Gloria Gonzalez Fuster, Serge Gutwirth
Serge Gutwirth
The existence of a fundamental right to the protection of personal data in European Union (EU) law is nowadays undisputed. Established in the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights in 2000, it is increasingly permeating EU secondary law, and is expected to play a key role in the future EU personal data protection landscape. The right’s reinforced visibility has rendered manifest the co-existence of two possible and contrasting interpretations as to what it come to mean. If some envision it as a primarily permissive right, enabling the processing of such data under certain conditions, others picture it as having a prohibitive …

Bypassing Bias: How Law Reviews Circumvent Favoritism, Allen P. Mendenhall
Allen Mendenhall
Could peer-reviewed humanities journals benefit by having student editors, as is the practice for law reviews? Are student editors valuable because they are less likely than peer reviewers to be biased against certain contributors and viewpoints? Student editors of and contributors to law reviews may seem to be the notable exception, but legal scholarship is different from humanities scholarship in ways I address here, and law reviews suffer from biases similar to those endemic to peer-reviewed journals. Nevertheless, law review submission and editing probably have less systemic bias than peer-reviewed journals, but not because students edit them. Rather, law review …
From Natural Law To Natural Inferiority: The Construction Of Racist Jurisprudence In Early Virginia, 2012 Huntingdon College; Faulkner University; Supreme Court of Alabama
From Natural Law To Natural Inferiority: The Construction Of Racist Jurisprudence In Early Virginia, Allen P. Mendenhall
Allen Mendenhall
Science informed American jurisprudence during the age of the Revolution. Colonials used science and naturalism to navigate the wilderness, define themselves against the British, and forge a new national identity and constitutional order. American legal historians have long noted the influence of science upon the Founding generation, and historians of American slavery have casually noted the influence of science upon early American racism as organized and standardized in slave codes. This article seeks to synthesize the work of American legal historians and historians of American slavery by showing how natural law jurisprudence, anchored in scientific discourse and vocabulary, brought about …

El Fin Ilícito Como Función Económico-Individual Ilícita O La Causa Concreta Ilícita En Los Contratos, Rómulo Morales
Rómulo Martín Morales Hervias
El autor concuerda con una reciente sentencia** por cuanto en esta se entiende la causa del contrato como función económico-individual o causa concreta. Advierte, asimismo, que en el caso peruano, solo podemos usar la nulidad del contrato por fines ilícitos, ya que no cabe aplicar la nulidad por ausencia de causa al momento de la celebración del contrato al no existir norma expresa al respecto. De ahí que se aplicaría la doctrina de la inexistencia en los casos de ausencia de causa.

El Desempeño Como Litigante De La Fne Una Mirada Cuantitativa, Diego G. Pardow

This paper evaluates the performance on Antitrust cases of the Chilean public enforcer (Fiscalía Nacional Económica, “FNE”), presenting an approach that frames its differences with private plaintiffs in terms of the effort that each of them should deliver during the trial. The presence of the FNE in a particular case is used to draw the line between public and private enforcement, while the number of hearings is considered as a proxy of the joint effort delivered by the parties. The results show that the FNE outperforms private palintiffs in a large number of cases where the defendant’s effort is relatively …

The author, a seven-year Legal Research & Writing Professor, first explains how she has used the automatic advance feature in Microsoft PowerPoint to create a semester series of weekly “Silent Scrolling PowerPoints,” 5 to 7 minutes in length, on a variety of topics of interest and inspiration to her first-year law students. She then summarizes the six benefits observed while experimenting with this tool over …

First Draft Do Not Publish- Regulations On Firearms: Confessions From A Gun Salesman, 2012 The Ohio State University
First Draft Do Not Publish- Regulations On Firearms: Confessions From A Gun Salesman, Beau W. Cross
Beau W Cross
Over the past year, there has been a heated debate on Capitol Hill about the regulation of firearms and accessories such as high capacity magazines. With many school massacres and other acts of violence due to gunfire taking place in the past few decades, change in regulations was inevitable. A total ban on firearms was not feasible, as a citizen’s right to bear arms is protected through the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution. However, in 2005, President Bush took a stance; he created change in policy by signing the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (Arms Act) …
