In Celebration Of Constitutional Kindness: Soft Symbolism In A Hard Shell, James Audley Mclaughlin Sep 1987

In Celebration Of Constitutional Kindness: Soft Symbolism In A Hard Shell, James Audley Mclaughlin

West Virginia Law Review

The bicentennial of any constitution is surely an invitation to much sententious rhetoric. But the bicentennial of THE Constitution, The American Constitution of 1787, is an occasion for oratorical pyrotechnics of the first magnitude. So I shall make my brief tribute to note the importance of the Constitution as symbol - symbol of our national resolve to be a good society. Constitutions, in general, have two distinct functions: (1) As the outward sign and symbol of a society's fundamental commitment to social values and (2) perhaps more mundanely, as the framework for a political order. Our Constitution of 1787 (or …

Dialectical Federalism: A Tribute To The West Virginia Supreme Court Of Appeals, Gene R. Nichol Sep 1987

Dialectical Federalism: A Tribute To The West Virginia Supreme Court Of Appeals, Gene R. Nichol

West Virginia Law Review

Over the course of the past decade, the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals has become something of a controversial institution. Allegedly seeking to "mold state government in its own image,"' the court has issued decisions restructuring the state property tax assessment and appraisal scheme, overseeing the funding of public education, invalidating a gubernatorial veto, expanding tort claims beyond the umbrella of workers compensation, and ordering emergency care for the homeless. As a result, the high court has, perhaps deservedly, "attained a reputation for dramatic intervention in public policy disputes.” As individual exercises of judicial authority, the court's determinations have …

Disorder In The Court: The Death Penalty And The Constitution, Robert A. Burt Aug 1987

Disorder In The Court: The Death Penalty And The Constitution, Robert A. Burt

Michigan Law Review

This article has two purposes. Its first aim is to trace the significance of these shifting characterizations of American society in the Justices' successive approaches to the death penalty by retelling the story of the Court's capital punishment jurisprudence. Its second purpose is to suggest that belief in implacable social hostility destroys the coherence of the judicial role in constitutional adjudication. America may indeed be an irreconcilably polarized society; I cannot dispositively prove or disprove the proposition. I mean only to claim that in constitutional adjudication a judge is obliged to act as if this proposition were false; and, moreover, …


Aids Discrimination Under Federal, State, And Local Law After Arline, Robert P. Wasson, Jr. Jul 1987

Aids Discrimination Under Federal, State, And Local Law After Arline, Robert P. Wasson, Jr.

Florida State University Law Review

In School Board v. Arline, the United States Supreme Court determined that people who suffer from tuberculosis can be protected from employment discrimination by the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. Arline is certain to affect people afflicted with AIDS-related disorders who suffer discrimination. In this Article, Professor Wasson examines the Arline decision and the effect it will have on AIDS-related discrimination. Also, he examines provisions of the United States Constitution, acts of Congress, state law, and municipal ordinances, all of which might provide alternative measures of protection for those who suffer AIDS-related discrimination.

Means, Ends And Original Intent: A Response To Charles Cooper, Michael Wells Jul 1987

Means, Ends And Original Intent: A Response To Charles Cooper, Michael Wells

Scholarly Works

Charles Cooper believes that the ninth amendment should be read at once more broadly and more narrowly than it is today. In his view, the intent of the Framers was to cabin the power of the federal government. By taking note in the ninth amendment of rights other than those enumerated in the first eight, they sought to ensure that the national government would not exercise powers beyond those listed in the Constitution. Since the aim of the ninth amendment was to keep the federal government one of limited power, it is inappropriate to apply the amendment to the states, …
