Sex Discrimination In Employment Under Title Vii Of The Civil Rights Act Of 1964, Anthony R. Mansfield

Vanderbilt Law Review

On July 2, 1964, President Johnson signed into law the Civil Rights Act of 1964,' the most far-reaching civil rights legislation in history.Much has been written about the act, but almost without exception the writers have been concerned with the ban of discrimination in employment on the basis of race or color. But the most radical and troublesome characteristic of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act is its outlawing of employment discrimination based on sex. It is the purpose of this note to examine this largely ignored aspect of the act. The inquiry will first examine the regulation of …

Unconstitutional Uncertainty: A Study Of The Use Of Detainers, Donald E. Shelton

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

The question is why a prosecutor would go through the motions of asking a warden to notify him of the availability of a prisoner that he never intends to take into custody. The first answer is that it is common practice for many prosecutors to automatically file a detainer upon learning that an accused is imprisoned elsewhere. This decision is made without any regard to their eventual decision to prosecute. But the more basic answer, and the reason why this practice of automatic filing of detainers has developed, lies in the effects a detainer has upon the prisoner.

Religious Freedom And The Church-State Relationship In Maryland, Kenneth Lasson

All Faculty Scholarship

Maryland holds the unique and admirable distinction of having been the State whose early history most directly ensured, and whose citizenry was most directly affected by, the first amendment's grant of religious liberty. The Supreme Court's docket is still liberally sprinkled with petitions calling for renewed interpretation of the establishment clause, and Marylanders will soon vote upon a proposed new state constitution with a similar provision - hence, the opportuneness for tracing Maryland's contribution to the cause of toleration and to the principle of church-state separation.

The scope of this article will not extend beyond a sketch of the important …

Third Party Plaintiffs In Civil Rights Damage Actions, Robert M. Didrick

Cleveland State Law Review

This article will discuss the question of whether third parties may bring an action for damages against those who deprive another of his civil rights. The related question, resulting from the second cause of action in the Napolitano case, of whether one may recover for the mental anguish caused by the denial of another's civil rights will also be considered. Although the question is concerned with damage actions, cases in which injunctive relief was asked are helpful in studying the principle involved. Relief has been granted in these cases much more readily than in damage actions, possibly because the equitable …

Arrests In Civil Disturbances: Reflections On The Use Of Deadly Force In Riots, Henry Mcgee

Faculty Articles

Professor McGee examines the use of deadly force in quelling recurrent communal rioting of alienated black urban masses in 1968. Napoleon fired “grapeshot” into a rioting Parisian crowd in 1795, and while his brutality may have quieted the rioters it should not be set as an example for our modern day police forces. Deadly force used against large numbers of citizens, who just prior to the riots were for the most part law-abiding and peaceful, can have crushing social consequences. In this article Professor McGee discusses police departmental policy, the limits of deadly force in arrests, excessive force and liability, …

The Georgia Eavesdropping Statute: A Critical Examination In Light Of Berger V. New York, R. W. S., Jr.

Georgia Law Review

Mr. Justice Brandeis, dissenting in Olmstead v. United States,2 observed that: Ways may some day be developed by which the Government, without removing papers from secret drawers, can reproduce them in court, and by which it will be enabled to expose to a jury the most intimate occurrences of the home. With the advent of miniaturized circuits and the corresponding subtlety of eavesdropping devices Brandeis' prediction has become a substantial reality. Tubular and parabolic microphones, for example, can intercept conversations held hundreds of yards away and, reportedly, a microwave beam has been developed which can penetrate virtually any obstacle. Wireless …

The Continuing Challenge Of The Fourteenth Amendment, Thurgood Marshall

Georgia Law Review

I HAVE come here to Athens tonight to help you commemorate a great event of the past. This year marks the centennial of an occurrence which has had, and will continue to have, great impact on the people in this room. It was in 1868, on July 28 to be exact, that Secretary of State Seward certified that the fourteenth amendment had been ratified by three-quarters of the states and had become part of the Constitution. This event is not simply an isolated historical landmark for the students of this school. Historically, the ratification of the Civil War Amendments marked …

The Desegregation Opinion Revisited:Legal Or Sociological?, Morris D. Forkosch

Vanderbilt Law Review

It is the thesis of this article that the Supreme Court, regardless of its decision for or against the state laws, had the judicial ability and jurisdiction to render the opinion in the Desegregation Case of 1954. A distinction is drawn here between the judicial power to decide a case regardless of any attendant consequences, and the reasons given for that decision. When reasons which were supposedly valid seventy years ago are now rejected, there is nothing illogical in this rejection so long as the Court still adheres to the identical procedure used earlier; but when the substance within the …

Labor Law-Prima Facie Tort Doctrine Bars Unreasonable Deprivation Of Union Membership-Hurwitz V. Directors Guild Of America, Inc., Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

In July 1965 the officers of the Directors Guild of America (DGA) and the Screen Directors International Guild (SDIG) concluded a merger agreement which provided that DGA was to be the surviving union and SDIG members were to become members of DGA automatically upon signing the DGA non-Communist loyalty oath. Although the SDIG membership ratified the merger agreement by a majority vote, six members steadfastly refused to sign the oath and as a result were not admitted to membership in DGA. They thereupon brought a diversity suit in a New York federal district court: and moved for a preliminary injunction …
