The Avowed Lesbian Mother And Her Right To Child Custody: A Constitutional Challenge That Can No Longer Be Denied, Marilyn Riley

San Diego Law Review

The custody determinations involving Lesbian mothers raise constitutional issues which must be examined against our society's strongly anti-homosexual background. Generally, problems the women face result from Western culture's ancient homophobia—a combination of fear, hatred and ignorance—which has produced a heritage of persecution directed at homosexuals. Because anti-homophile attitudes are so deeply rooted and widely accepted, they of course influence legislative and judicial responses to the homophile's demands for equal rights. Therefore, before considering the relevant constitutional issues, this Note will discuss the history and development of Western homophobia.

The Law Of Water Allocation In Kentucky, Richard C. Ausness, Bill H. Flynn

KWRRI Research Reports

This study discusses navigability concepts, consumptive rights to surface and ground waters, the disposal of diffused surface waters and the administration of Kentucky's statutory water allocation system.

Federal regulatory powers are based on navigability as is state ownership of submerged lands. Kentucky uses the ebb-and-flow test of navigability to determine title to submerged lands but uses a navigability-in-fact test to determine the scope of state regulatory authority. Consumptive uses of water in Kentucky are governed by the riparian landowner to use as much water as he needs as long as his use does not interfere with the legitimate uses of …

The Fisheries Proposals: An Assessment, Channing Kury

San Diego Law Review

Several major proposals for the regulation or division of the international fisheries were made at the Law of the Sea Conference at Caracas, Venezuela in 1974. Law is typically evolved through controversy with many inherent limitations and costs. There will not be, in fact cannot be, an optimal body of law for the utilization of the sea. What can be hoped for, though, is a corpus juris that will be responsive to natural and societal limitations and demands. It is chiefly with this criterion in mind that the following assessment has been made of some of the fisheries proposals.

The Illusory Treasure Of Davy Jones' Locker, Martin Ira Glassner

San Diego Law Review

This proposal, while admittedly inchoate and sketchy, is in keeping with the trends of our times. It would provide both minerals and capital for development. It would preserve State sovereignty while fostering international cooperation. And it would not unduly impede the mining companies which are poised to begin commercial harvesting, but would integrate them into partnership.

The Impact Of The 200-Mile Economic Zone On The Law Of The Sea, Lewis M. Alexander, Robert D. Hodgson

San Diego Law Review

Students of marine affairs can easily trace the evolving process of offshore claims: the expansion of territorial sea breadths in the case of many States to four, six, twelve or even greater mileages; the claims to specialized extra-territorial zones, as for example, customs, fishing, pollution control, and neutrality; the closing off of bays, gulfs, and inter-island waters as part of the national territory; and the extension of national rights over continental shelf reprocession, and terms such as straight baselines, historic bays, and archipelagic waters have become recognized (if sometimes ill-defined) parts of the law of the sea lexicon. Now yet …

Recent Developments In The Law Of The Sea: A Synopsis, Robert Armstrong, William Franz, Webster Kinnaird

San Diego Law Review

Each year, as an integral part of its symposium on the law of the sea, the San Diego Law Review presents a synopsis of the major events in the field. This year's precis covers the period from January 1, 1974 to December 31, 1974. The scope of the article prohibits extended scrutiny of the subject matter. However, the manner in which it is presented exposes the reader to a broad spectrum of recent events and allows familiarization with increasingly important facets of a rapidly expanding area. As an added ingredient, this year's synopsis contains coverage of the United Nations Conference …

The Abused Child And His Parents, Richard David Young

IUSTITIA

Children in our society pass through a prolonged period of dependency during which they are taught the complex technological and social skills necessary for successful adult functioning. The child's experiences during this period can have profound effects on the development of his potential for meaningful interpersonal relationships, competency, and creativity. The child's dependence needs are the complement of the caretaker's nurturance. When nurturance fails or is inconsistent, societal loss merges with individual tragedy. Yet nurturance does occasionally fail. Some of those charged with the care of children abdicate their responsibilities, and do not provide the physical and/or emotional necessities for …

Pesticide Regulation And The Farm Worker, R. Craig Loveless

IUSTITIA

It has long been recognized that many pesticide products offer a potential hazard, which if unregulated, may result in injury or death. The development of highly toxic pesticides during the last decade has created a need for stricter regulation of pesticide use in the agricultural community. Specifically, the farm worker of today is in need of legislative protection from exposure to deadly chemical agents now being used to control pests and disease in the fields and orchards. Regulating the handling and use of these dangerous pesticides is but one way to protect the farmer, the farm worker, and the environment. …

Disqualification For Bias- Indiana In Prespective, John Philip Updike

IUSTITIA

In 1943, the Indiana Legislature created a Stream Pollution Control Board;' in 1961, it created an Air Pollution Control Board; and then in 1972, the Legislature created an Environmental Management Board to coordinate and facilitate the efforts of the air and stream boards. The concern within the State Legislature for the environment reaches back more than two decades, and it would appear that the policy of the State is to become progressively more active in this area. However, the effectiveness of State programs to protect the Hoosier environment is necessarily dependent upon the dedication of those persons sitting on the …
