A Fresh Start Through Bankruptcy: Fact Or Frustration For The Student Loan Debtor?, Barbara Linde Jan 1979

A Fresh Start Through Bankruptcy: Fact Or Frustration For The Student Loan Debtor?, Barbara Linde

Seattle University Law Review

The rapidly increasing number of student loans maturing under the relatively new guaranteed student loan program have spawned a dramatic increase in the number of educational loans discharged in bankruptcy. This comment will examine former students' ability to obtain college transcripts after discharge of their student loans through bankruptcy. It will discuss the two cases holding that a private college can deny transcripts to bankrupts, but a state college cannot." Furthermore, it will inquire into the purposes of the Bankruptcy Act, the correctness of the restrictive judicial interpretation of the 1970 amendments," and alternative judicial approaches that better reflect the …

The Fcc, Cable Tv, And Visions Of Valhalla: Judicial Scrutiny Of Complex Rulemaking And Institutional Competence, Allen E. Shoenberger

University of Richmond Law Review

A number of recent decisions by the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, its counterpart for the Eighth Circuit, and the United States Supreme Court, have substantially curtailed the power of the FCC to regulate the growth of cable television. Such regulation has proved to be a very complicated and extended saga of FCC activity, one measure of which was the extraordinary justification for publishing a per curiam opinion in Home Box Office, Inc. v. FCC: "not because it has received less than full consideration by the court, but because the complexity of the issues raised …


Regulation Of Consumer Credit In Virginia: A Suggestion For Legislative Improvement, Douglas P. Rucker Jr., William C. French Jan 1979

Regulation Of Consumer Credit In Virginia: A Suggestion For Legislative Improvement, Douglas P. Rucker Jr., William C. French

University of Richmond Law Review

The American economic system is the most successful yet developed, and consumer credit has played a vital role in that economy. Consumer credit has experienced tremendous growth, and has adjusted to the demands of changing life-styles, economic needs, and geographic distinctions, as well as to the different types of consumer goods which have become available with a minimal amount of government intervention. What government intervention there has been has involved restraint and restriction. There now exists the need to improve the consumer credit industry to enable the citizens of Virginia to continue to be able to obtain both the necessities …

"Indecent" Language: A New Class Of Prohibitable Speech? F.C.C. V. Pacifica Foundation, Robert T. Billingsley

University of Richmond Law Review

Courts in this country have long recognized that the first amendment guarantee of freedom of speech, while written in absolute terms, is not an unyielding bar to all government regulation. The basic question left unresolved, however, is under what circumstances the government may intervene on behalf of itself or its citizens to place restrictions upon the great protected right of communication. Mr. Justice Holmes, speaking for the Supreme Court in Schenck v. United States, indicated that the question was whether the words used would create a "clear and present danger" of bringing about "substantive evils that Congress has a right …


Professional Ethics And Trial Publicity: Another Constitutional Attack On Dr7-107- Hirschkop V. Snead, Stephen E. Baril Jan 1979

Professional Ethics And Trial Publicity: Another Constitutional Attack On Dr7-107- Hirschkop V. Snead, Stephen E. Baril

University of Richmond Law Review

Philip J. Hirschkop brought an action seeking a declaratory judgment that Disciplinary Rule 7-107 of the Virginia Code of Professional Responsibility, was unconstitutionally vague and over broad. DR 7-107, generally referred to as the "no-comment" rule, prohibits extrajudicial statements by attorneys regarding pending litigation in which they are involved, "if there is a reasonable likelihood that such dissemination will interfere with a fair trial or otherwise prejudice the due administration of justice."


State Medical Malpractice Screening Panels In Federal Diversity Actions, Vincent C. Alexander Jan 1979

State Medical Malpractice Screening Panels In Federal Diversity Actions, Vincent C. Alexander

Faculty Publications

During the early 1970's, a medical malpractice crisis was perceived in the United States. An increasing number of costly and time-consuming lawsuits alleging medical malpractice against doctors, hospitals, and other health care providers caused malpractice insurers to raise premiums substantially, which in turn threatened to curtail the availability of adequate health care at reasonable cost. State legislatures responded to the crisis with a variety of substantive and procedural measures intended to reduce the number of litigated claims and the size of jury awards. One of the principal steps taken in a majority of states was the creation of extrajudicial panels …

The Effects Of Selected Tax Reform And School Finance Proposals On The Equalizing Tendencies Of State Aid To Michigan Public School Districts, Dorothy R. Hildebrand

Dissertations

Problem. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects selected tax reform and school finance proposals would have on the equalizing tendencies of state aid to Michigan school districts. The study focused on nine finance revisions as follows: The Tisch proposal which would make 50 percent cuts in all real property values; the Siljander proposal which would make 60 percent cuts in the value of some classifications of real property; two variations of the Tisch and Siljander proposals which would specify even larger reductions in property values than the original proposals; two variations of the Siljander proposal which …
