Administrative Agencies And The Rites Of Due Process: Alternatives To Excessive Litigation, Daniel Lee Feldman Jan 1979

Administrative Agencies And The Rites Of Due Process: Alternatives To Excessive Litigation, Daniel Lee Feldman

With the growth of courtroom litigation, it has become necessary for congress to look to administrative agencies to act in an adjudicative nature.

This article addresses the need to balance the procedural due process rights of individuals with the use of administrative agencies to eliminate or at the very least reduce excessive litigation.

Court-Awarded "Reasonable" Fees: Forcing A Segregated Public Interest Bar?, Paul L. Robert

Fordham Urban Law Journal

In ensuring that each citizen has free and unabated access to the legal system, it is important to strengthen the public interest sector of the legal community. To allow for solo practitioners and firms to engage in public interest cases, it is vital that the court system apply consistent standards for fee awards so as to incentivize and adequately compensate attorneys for their work. This comment looks to the importance of reasonable fees in ensuring the availability of counsel and more importantly, the availability of effective counsel.

This article will explore some of these divergent opinions to determine the probable effect that the Court's decision in Upjohn will have upon communications between …

The History Of Legal Education In Virginia, W. Hamilton Bryson Jan 1979

The History Of Legal Education In Virginia, W. Hamilton Bryson

University of Richmond Law Review

The English Inns of Court in London had ceased to perform their educational functions in the middle of the seventeenth century. For the next hundred years or so, there was no formal or organized instruction of the English common law. Lawyers, both barristers and solicitors in England and in America, learned their profession as best they could in unstructured situations. They learned by serving as apprentices or clerks to practicing lawyers, by the independent reading of law books, and by observation in the courtroom itself.
