Studies Of Legal Education: A Review Of Recent Reports, Thomas L. Shaffer, Robert S. Redmount Jan 1977

Studies Of Legal Education: A Review Of Recent Reports, Thomas L. Shaffer, Robert S. Redmount

Journal Articles

Early in 1972, the Carnegie Commission on Higher Education published its report on legal education. It is the most prominent study of legal education in the last decade, and typical of discourse in and about law schools—urbane, speculative, unempirical, conceptual, rarely student-centered. The authors of the Carnegie report were articulate law teachers. They wrote with their feet up and their pipes lit, without attention to facts which did not come from their considerable experience. The value of such reports is the thoughtfulness of the people who write them, and their predictive accuracy is due to the fact that people who …


Two Perspectives On The Real Estate Title System: A Proposal For A Title Registration System For Realty, Martin Lobel Jan 1977

Two Perspectives On The Real Estate Title System: A Proposal For A Title Registration System For Realty, Martin Lobel

University of Richmond Law Review

As the ancient legal apparatus providing for the transfer of land creaks into the final quarter of the twentieth century, the need for a massive overhaul becomes increasingly clear. Designed and introduced at a time when it could work reasonably well, the land recordation system has now reached senility, its irrationality becoming more and more apparent with each passing year.

A Model Act For The Certification Of Paralegals And The Accreditation Of Paralegal Training Programs, Raymond B. Marcin Jan 1977

A Model Act For The Certification Of Paralegals And The Accreditation Of Paralegal Training Programs, Raymond B. Marcin

Scholarly Articles

Over the past decade or so, lawyers have become accustomed to socio-legal "explosions": the explosion into the law scene of legal services corporations; the explosion in malpractice insurance rates as the result of the explosion in medical malpractice suits and favorable jury verdicts; the explosion in no-fault law, both in negligence and family disputes; and the legal profession's own population explosion.

Therefore, it should come as no great shock that over the past decade there has been one additional socio-legal explosion: the explosion in the use of paralegals by lawyers, law firms, corporations, and government agencies of all descriptions. Although …

Parodoxes Of Canadian Legal Education, H. W. Arthurs Jan 1977

Parodoxes Of Canadian Legal Education, H. W. Arthurs

Dalhousie Law Journal

If the history of Canadian legal education should ever be written, these years of the mid-1970s will surely be viewed as a period of critical significance. For at least a quarter-century, growth has been the predominant theme: growth in student numbers and faculty complements; growth in democratic decision-making by both faculty and students, but also - inevitably - in the bureaucratic structures of faculties; growth of physical facilities and indeed, of whole new faculties; growth of libraries and of the pace and variety of research; growth of curricula and of teaching methods; growth in professional esteem and in public contribution; …

Improving Police Discretion: Rationality In Handling Public Inebriates, David Aaronson, C. Dienes, Michael Musheno Jan 1977

Improving Police Discretion: Rationality In Handling Public Inebriates, David Aaronson, C. Dienes, Michael Musheno

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

This two-part article reports on the findings of the "prescriptive" phase of the American University Law School's Project on Public Inebriation.' First, we provide a framework or model designed to contribute to efforts to improve the rationality of police discretion and the quality of discretionary justice. Second, we seek to increase understanding of, and provide the basis for improving, the intake process whereby public inebriates are delivered to designated facilities-jails, detoxification centers, etc.-in criminal and decriminalized jurisdictions. While the article focuses on the discretionary power of police officers to remove street inebriates, it should increase awareness of problems of decriminalizing …

Courts: Evidence And Procedure, Commentary: The Second Circuit And The Federal Rules Of Evidence, Paul F. Rothstein

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

The most significant development in federal trial procedure in recent years has been the enactment of the Federal Rules of Evidence, effective July 1, 1975. In the intervening two years since the Rules became effective, the courts of the Second Circuit have bad occasion to make several illuminating applications of and references to them.

An examination of some of these decisions provides insight into the kinds of questions that are coming up not only in the Second Circuit, but around the country, and the kinds of answers that are being given. It is not the bizarre or unusual case that …

Constructive Enlistments: Alive And Well, David A. Schlueter Jan 1977

Constructive Enlistments: Alive And Well, David A. Schlueter

Faculty Articles

Despite the predicted demise of the doctrine of constructive enlistments, recent case law from the Courts of Military Appeals has extended its existence. The constructive enlistment is recognized as a means of changing one’s status from civilian to servicemember where some deficiencies exist in the formal enlistment process.

In a trio of cases, United States v. Brown, United States v. Catlow, and United States v. Russo, the Court of Military Appeals laid a firm foundation for estopping the government from relying upon constructive enlistments in order to establish in personam court-martial jurisdiction. This trio of cases raised more questions than …


Unequal Justice: Lawyers And Social Change In Modern America, By Jerold S. Auerbach (Book Review), David A. Dittfurth Jan 1977

Unequal Justice: Lawyers And Social Change In Modern America, By Jerold S. Auerbach (Book Review), David A. Dittfurth

Faculty Articles

In Unequal Justice, Jerold S. Auerbach attempts to prove that the legal profession has failed to adequately pursue equality of justice. He finds little evidence that the legal profession or its dominant factions have made an adequate effort to assure the provision of legal services according to need. On the contrary, most of the historical evidence presented in this book leads one to believe that the legal profession has accepted profit as its real goal.

The author contends that, because the legal profession is responsible for formulating and applying law in a very legalistic society, it serves a very important …
