The Termination Of Parental Rights, D. Janell Pugh Jan 1994

The Termination Of Parental Rights, D. Janell Pugh

Brigham Young University Prelaw Review

This paper defines what the law requires as grounds for the termination of parental rights. The state may decide it is in the child's best interest to terminate the rights of a parent of parents. In cases where abuse or neglect occurs and the child is in immediate danger, the child is removed from the home and placed in foster care.

If and when home situation is safe, the child is reunited with the family. When this cycle occurs again and again, and the children are repeatedly removed and reunited with their families, or in extreme cases of abuse, neglect, …

Nestle, Infant Formula, And Excuses: The Regulation Of Commercial Advertising In Developing Nations, Caryn L. Finkle Jan 1994

Nestle, Infant Formula, And Excuses: The Regulation Of Commercial Advertising In Developing Nations, Caryn L. Finkle

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

Advertising has been recognized as one of the most persuasive forms of communication.' Can it also endanger the cultural autonomy of a nation? This comment addresses the potential role of advertising in developing countries and its regulation by the international community. The central question of this analysis is whether or not the advertising of the most developed nations, particularly the advertising produced by the so called "western media,"2 is a threat to the cultural survival of developing countries.' The answer to this question as reflected in the World Health Organization's (WHO) Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes4 is yes. The …


Worms, Mice, Cows And Pigs: The Importance Of Animal Patents In Developing Countries, Elisabeth T. Jozwiak Jan 1994

Worms, Mice, Cows And Pigs: The Importance Of Animal Patents In Developing Countries, Elisabeth T. Jozwiak

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

Transgenic animals play a large role in several critical industries: the pharmaceutical industry, the agricultural industry, farming, and medical research. As these biotechnology-oriented industries have grown, the United States and other industrialized nations have realized the importance of patent protection for genetically-engineered animals. Unfortunately, lesser-developed countries (LDCs), which can benefit the most from such industries, do not provide adequate patent protection for transgenic animals, even though patent protection for transgenic animals could ultimately lead to reduction in starvation and disease, two of the biggest problems facing many LDCs. The United States should pursue bilateral negotiations with developing countries in the …


The Globalization Of Stock Index Futures: A Summary Of The Market And Regulatory Developments In Stock Index Futures And The Regulatory Hurdles Which Exist For Foreign Stock Index Futures In The United States, William J. Brodsky Jan 1994

The Globalization Of Stock Index Futures: A Summary Of The Market And Regulatory Developments In Stock Index Futures And The Regulatory Hurdles Which Exist For Foreign Stock Index Futures In The United States, William J. Brodsky

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

The twelve-year history of stock index futures contracts has been marked by great success both in the United States and in many other countries. Two years after the product was introduced in 1982, the "notional," i.e., underlying, or dollar value of trading on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) S&P 500 Stock Price Index futures contract surpassed the dollar volume of trading at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).' Moreover, "as investors go increasingly global and market turbulence grows, stock index futures are emerging as the favorite way for nimble money managers to deploy their funds. Indeed, in most major markets, …

Anatomy Of A Regulatory Program: Comment On 'Strategic Regulators And The Choice Of Rulemaking Procedures', Jeffrey Lubbers Jan 1994

Anatomy Of A Regulatory Program: Comment On 'Strategic Regulators And The Choice Of Rulemaking Procedures', Jeffrey Lubbers

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

Besides being a very interesting, cogent, and even a tidy study, "Strategic Regulators" sheds some bright light on agency behavior and on the important issue of whether agency rulemaking may be "ossifying."

The study design employed by Hamilton and Schroeder is attractively simple. They started with all of the Environmental Protection Agency's ("EPA's") hazardous waste regulations under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act ("RCRA") appearing in the Code of Federal Regulations ("CFR"), counting each decimal point CFR number as a separate rule. This yielded 697 rules. They then examined all EPA/RCRA guidance documents issued since the inception of the program …

Constitutional Challenges To Bans On Assisted Suicide: The View From Without And Within, Robert A. Sedler Jan 1994

Constitutional Challenges To Bans On Assisted Suicide: The View From Without And Within, Robert A. Sedler

UC Law Constitutional Quarterly

This Article analyzes constitutional challenges to bans on "assisted suicide" from the dual perspectives of an academic commentator and a constitutional litigator. The focus is on the application of such bans to the terminally ill. An absolute ban on the use of physician-prescribed medications by a terminally ill person to hasten that person's inevitable death, if and when the person chooses to do so, is an "undue burden" on that person's constitutionally protected liberty interest in personal autonomy. The "preserving life" justification typically asserted for bans on assisted suicide is insufficient in the case of a terminally ill person because …


Out, Out Brief Candle: Constitutionally Prescribed Suicide For The Terminally Ill, Thomas J. Marzen Jan 1994

Out, Out Brief Candle: Constitutionally Prescribed Suicide For The Terminally Ill, Thomas J. Marzen

UC Law Constitutional Quarterly

Proponents of assisted suicide claim a constitutional right for competent adults with terminal conditions or unbearable suffering to receive a physician-prescribed lethal dose of drugs. Critics respond that any such right cannot be confined to such narrow categories in view of the abortion and withdrawal-of-treatment precedents and the force of reason and experience. Beyond the "slippery slope" that any constitutionally protected liberty to assisted suicide portends, such an asserted right has no historical basis and cannot be derived from principals implicit in the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution. The claim that "rational" assisted suicide is a right presumes a set …
