Prisoners, Patients, And Privatization: Accountability For Corrections Contractors Under The New Mexico Civil Rights Act, Mayalyn Durham
Prisoners, Patients, And Privatization: Accountability For Corrections Contractors Under The New Mexico Civil Rights Act, Mayalyn Durham
New Mexico Law Review
New Mexico dedicates significant resources to incarceration—particularly with respect to prison medical care. Although New Mexico has mostly transitioned away from privately operated prisons, the New Mexico Corrections Department (NMCD) continues to contract with various corporations to provide health services in state-owned prisons. Not surprisingly, the private contractors’ cost-saving measures often result in the provision of grossly inadequate healthcare that constitutes cruel and unusual punishment under the Eighth Amendment. Prisoner litigation under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, however, is fraught with substantive and procedural barriers to recovery. The New Mexico Civil Rights Act (NMCRA or “the Act”) provides an avenue of …
Unchecked Contempt: The Necessity Of Maximum Sanctions For Criminal Contempt In New Mexico, Cam Rosenberg
Unchecked Contempt: The Necessity Of Maximum Sanctions For Criminal Contempt In New Mexico, Cam Rosenberg
New Mexico Law Review
Few areas of law are so completely entrusted to judge’s discretion, and therefore engender the risk of judicial abuse, as the contempt power. Despite this risk, New Mexico has significantly expanded the criminal contempt power over the last three years. Yet the results of this expansion—which typically play out in trial courts with little publicity and rare appellate review—have not been studied in any detail. This Comment examines how New Mexico trial courts used criminal contempt from January 1, 2023, to October 20, 2024, in light of the broad discretion granted to these courts. In this timeframe, a select few …
The Rogue Private Company And National Defense Emergencies, Gavin Small
The Rogue Private Company And National Defense Emergencies, Gavin Small
Duke Journal of Constitutional Law & Public Policy Sidebar
This Note explores two overlapping challenges in the United States constitutional and political system. First, the United States increasingly relies on private companies for technologies necessary for national defense. This has given outsized power to a few unelected corporations and people who might have their own incentives that misalign with those of the United States. This is particularly dangerous in an emergency situation where the United States government, not a private company with its own interests, should be making decisions regarding national security. As an example, this Note focuses on the massive role that the company SpaceX plays in the …
Forcing Our Hand: Evaluating The Use Of Force In Responses To Wrongful Detentions Abroad, Tyler J. Marovitz
Forcing Our Hand: Evaluating The Use Of Force In Responses To Wrongful Detentions Abroad, Tyler J. Marovitz
Duke Journal of Constitutional Law & Public Policy Sidebar
Wrongful detentions are on the rise. Over the past ten years, U.S. nationals have increasingly found themselves detained abroad upon spurious allegations, facing trumped-up charges, and deprived of basic due process protections. Most of these detentions occur in countries hostile to the United States: Russia, Iran, North Korea, China, and Venezuela. The U.S. has opted to release rightfully detained foreigners to those nations in exchange for its wrongfully detained nationals. All of this perpetuates a “prisoner bazaar” that encourages unscrupulous nations to continue their bad-faith detentions of U.S. nationals. This Note investigates this emerging issue through a use of military …

Georgia Has A New Habitability Protection For Tenants, But What Does It Mean?, Elizabeth Grant, Gordon Wayne
Georgia Has A New Habitability Protection For Tenants, But What Does It Mean?, Elizabeth Grant, Gordon Wayne
Scholarly Works
Georgia’s Safe at Home Act became law on July 1, 2024, and established the standard that residential premises be “fit for human habitation.” The Act strengthens tenant protections by targeting severe housing issues affecting 15% of Georgia households, particularly Black and rural communities. It adds cooling as an essential utility, caps security deposits, and mandates a three-day notice to pay before eviction filings. However, the undefined “fit for human habitation” term awaits judicial interpretation, complicated by limited legal access and rare appellate precedent. Though a key step forward, this brief Comment suggests that additional measures are needed to secure tenants’ …
Hollow Choices: The Choice Neighborhood Initiative (Cni) And The Performance Of Participation, Lena Kufferman
Hollow Choices: The Choice Neighborhood Initiative (Cni) And The Performance Of Participation, Lena Kufferman
Geography Undergraduate Senior Theses
Since HUD Secretary Henry Cisneros' pledge in 1995 to “end public housing as we know it, ” the United States has seen the rapid depletion of public housing stock. Alongside this mass demolition, a new redevelopment paradigm emerged: a community-oriented planning model that requires resident participation. HUD’ s shift toward participatory planning began with HOPE VI in 1992, which sought private investment to demolish public housing, and was formalized in 2010 through the Choice Neighborhoods Initiative (CNI). This thesis examines a CNI planning phase—a stage overlooked in existing scholarship, which largely stresses post-occupancy outcomes like displacement, (im)mobility, socioeconomic integration, and …

Symbiotic International Law: Combatting Uyghur Forced Labor, Preston Jordan Lim
Symbiotic International Law: Combatting Uyghur Forced Labor, Preston Jordan Lim
Faculty Publications
Since 2017, the Chinese government has launched a campaign of repression against the Muslim Turkic minorities of Xinjiang, a region located in China’s Northwest. While most scholars have focused on the mass internment of Uyghurs and other minorities, this Article highlights an under-discussed aspect of China’s campaign: the construction of a sophisticated forced labor system. Minority forced labor supplies key sectors of the global economy—from the automotive to the energy sectors—and allows Chinese companies to outcompete foreign firms. The unprecedented scope and sophistication of what I term the “modern Xinjiang forced labor system” imperils the very future of the international …
Competition In The Global Law Market: Offshore Development Of The Statutory "Rule In Hastings-Bass", Andrew P. Morriss
Competition In The Global Law Market: Offshore Development Of The Statutory "Rule In Hastings-Bass", Andrew P. Morriss
Minnesota Journal of International Law, Vols. 28:2 onward (2019-present)
This Article examines the competitive dynamics in the global law market through the lens of the statutory evolution of the Rule in Hastings-Bass across various International Financial Centers (IFCs). Following the UK Supreme Court’s 2013 decision in Pitt v Holt and Futter v Futter, which significantly restricted the judiciary’s ability to void trustee decisions under the Rule, seven IFCs (Jersey, Bermuda, The Bahamas, the Dubai International Financial Center, the Cayman Islands, and the British Virgin Islands) enacted statutes to preserve and clarify the Rule within their jurisdictions. These legislative actions highlight the strategic adaptations by IFCs to enhance their legal …

And They Would Have Gotten Away With It, If Not For Those Meddling Federales: Examining State Responses To Transnational Organized Crime And Developing A Policy Framework, Aaron Lutz
Minnesota Journal of International Law, Vols. 28:2 onward (2019-present)
Transnational criminal organizations (TCOs) have begun expanding their enterprise into criminal gold mining in South America. This is causing widespread harm from human trafficking, pollution, and disease. These groups exploit vulnerable artisanal miners (ASMs) to provide a foothold in the gold mining industry and avoid the reach of states. This note examines the policy responses that South American countries have taken to this phenomenon and develops a policy framework for state actors moving against TCOs.

Using State Policy To Neutralize Green Infrastructure Project-Ending Litigation And Strategically Advance Community Engagement, Sara Cody
Pace Environmental Law Review
In May 2023, Governor Gavin Newsome publicly announced a California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) reform bill (SB 149), which he signed into law on July 10, 2023. From the moment this was announced, the proposal was barraged by pushback, not from climate negative industry, but from major environmental groups, including the National Resource Defense Council and the Sierra Club, among others. Why is this? One reason is that permit reform has historically been championed by the fossil fuel industry as a method for cutting red tape to make resource exploration faster, easier, and less costly. Even so, the ratio of …
Strange Bedfellows: Guardians For Fetuses And Future Generations, Celia Parry
Strange Bedfellows: Guardians For Fetuses And Future Generations, Celia Parry
Pace Environmental Law Review
In the 1970s, savvy anti-abortion lawyers began employing “fetal guardians” as a procedural mechanism to restrict abortion access. In Juliana v. United States, arguably the most important climate lawsuit from the past ten years, a “guardian for future generations” acted as a plaintiff. These forms of legal guardianship resemble each other because they both rely on property law precedent, invoke creative interpretations of guardianship, and represent future interests. This connection also presents a predicament for climate litigators and anti-abortion litigators, who don’t typically share the same agenda. To date, this intersection between fetal and future generation guardianship has not received …
Ecocentric Environmental Justice: Why We Should Go There And How We Can Get There, Jillian R. Houle
Ecocentric Environmental Justice: Why We Should Go There And How We Can Get There, Jillian R. Houle
Pace Environmental Law Review
Environmental justice is necessary. It forces us to grapple with the fact that environmental burdens and benefits have been disproportionately divvied up across arbitrary race- and income-based lines, asks “what are you going to do about it?”, and offers solutions and answers to the problems it identifies. Everyone benefits from environmental justice. At the same time, environmental protection is necessary. Not only does environmental protection, by definition, protect the biotic and abiotic components of the natural world, but it further serves to protect humans, who unequivocally rely on the natural environment to sustain their collective life. Everything – living and …
Geothermal Energy And The Possibility Of Narrative Unity In Environmental And Energy Law, Jarrod Ingles
Geothermal Energy And The Possibility Of Narrative Unity In Environmental And Energy Law, Jarrod Ingles
Pace Environmental Law Review
As the United States seeks to address concerns about climate change and energy affordability through the deployment of renewable energy and natural gas, the tensions between energy law and environmental law have come into sharper relief. These two related fields are converging as never before because solutions to rising energy costs and the “wicked problem” of climate change often pit the impulses of energy and environmental agencies against one another. Applying a narrative theory approach, I contend that energy law and environmental law will continue to be in tension because they are grounded in different narratives, which in turn communicate …
Back To The Future For Climate Liability, Anthony Moffa
Back To The Future For Climate Liability, Anthony Moffa
Pace Environmental Law Review
The Polluter Pays Principle has been a central tenet of environmental policy for decades. It provided an economic justification for compelling cleanups through the Superfund law (the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA)). However, outside of that context, it has not been explicitly cited as the chief justification for much environmental law in the United States—until now. The principle has recently been invoked in state climate lawmaking. Last year, Vermont and New York became the first states to enact laws that impose liability on fossil fuel producers for climate change harms, invoking the Polluter Pays Principle and Superfund …
Montana Trout Unlimited V. Montana Department Of Natural Resources, Kelly Brady
Montana Trout Unlimited V. Montana Department Of Natural Resources, Kelly Brady
Public Land & Resources Law Review
A proposed copper mine located near tributaries of the highly protected Smith River in central Montana set off a series of lawsuits over the use of water in the state. After a number of administrative hearings and subsequent trials, the only substantial question left was the status of “mine dewatering.” The Montana Supreme Court decided whether 1,500,000 gallons of water removed annually from the inner workings of a mine should require a water use permit as a beneficial use or if it exists outside of the regulatory jurisdiction of the Montana Department of Natural Resources under the Montana Water Use …
Session 4: Analyzing The Benefits Of Artificial Intelligence To Racially Inclusive Democracy, Spencer Overton, Jeffrey Omari
Session 4: Analyzing The Benefits Of Artificial Intelligence To Racially Inclusive Democracy, Spencer Overton, Jeffrey Omari
SITIE Symposiums
This keynote discussion explored the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI), race, and democratic governance, focusing on the challenges and opportunities AI presents for creating a racially inclusive democracy. Professor Overton argued that while AI has transformative potential, it is currently influenced by actors and systems that may unintentionally (or intentionally) weaken racial equity. The spread of AI technologies—without proper safeguards—has opened new pathways for reinforcing structural inequalities, especially in the democratic process.

Chevron Was Not, And Cannot Be, Overruled: The Dullness Of Loper Bright, Edward L. Rubin
Chevron Was Not, And Cannot Be, Overruled: The Dullness Of Loper Bright, Edward L. Rubin
Duke Journal of Constitutional Law & Public Policy
As expected, the Supreme Court declared, in Loper Bright Enterprises. v. Raimondo, that "Chevron is overruled." But the Court did not understand the decision that it claimed to overrule. It focused its criticisms on Chevron's notorious two-step test, but failed to recognize that the decision is a major conceptual advance – the first clear judicial recognition that statutory interpretation is the initial and invariably necessary stage in the process by which administrative agencies enforce the law. Chevron thus revealed a reality that the current Court is powerless to alter. Most administrative statutes are not the normative declarations of the pre-administrative …
