The Adversary Society: Keynote Address Of The Third Annual Baron De Hirsch Meyer Lecture Series, William H. Rehnquist

University of Miami Law Review

In recent years litigants have pressed the courts to resolve disputes which were formerly regulated by other social and political institutions. Mr. Justice Rehnquist stresses the crucial importance of nongovernmental institutions in our society. He discusses the need to evaluate the disruptive effect of an adversary proceeding between parties who must continue in an ongoing relationship after their dispute has been settled. The author then suggests that in order to preserve certain social institutions, limits must be placed on the use of adversary proceedings.

A Constitutional Analysis Of The Prohibition Against Collateral Attack In The Mexican-American Prisoner Exchange Treaty, Ira Robbins

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

Introduction: On November 25, 1976, the United States and Mexico concluded a bilateral treaty providing for reciprocal prisoner exchange, so that a national of one party to the agreement could complete his sentence in his home country.' The objectives of the agreement essentially were twofold: first, there was a need to ameliorate relations with Mexico on the delicate matter of the abuse of American citizens confined in Mexican prisons; second, there was a strong desire to alleviate special hardships, such as those respecting living conditions and prospects for rehabilitation, resulting from imprisonment in a foreign country. The Treaty was ratified …

Governmental Regulation Of The Press: A Study Of Israel's Press Ordinance - Part Ii, Pnina Lahav

Faculty Scholarship

In the beginning, use of the Press Ordinance (hereafter Pr. Ord.) was limited, but as British political control deteriorated it became more extensive and even ruthless. In 1937, the Peel Report complained that the Pr. Ord. was not tough enough and recommended stricter measures.³ At about the same time, the Mandatory Government itself reached the conclusion that the Pr. Ord. was insufficient and issued a series of Defence (Emergency) Regulations which suspended the entire range of civil liberties-including freedom of expression. These Defence (Emergency) Regulations which related to the press replaced in part and fortified in part the Pr. …

Automatism: The Unconsciousness Defense To A Criminal Action, Patricia E. Gould

San Diego Law Review

This comment examines the development and significance of recognition of automatism as a defense to criminal charges. The author starts by discussing the medical concept of automatism. The author includes a discussion of the possible causes of automatism as well as the English and American law on the subject. Next the author explores whether a separate automatism defense should be recognized based on a common law argument and constitutional argument. The author concludes that the automatism defense should be recognized because there is not fault on the part of the criminal defendant and therefore no responsibility for the criminal act.

Prisoner's Rights - Failure To Provide Adequate Law Libraries Denies Inmates' Right Of Access To The Courts, Irma S. Russell

Faculty Works

This article examines the Supreme Court's decision in Bounds v. Smith and the movement toward recognition of the rights that prisoners retain after incarceration.

Part I outlines the nature and legal foundation of the right of access to the courts as endorsed by Bounds. Part II examines questions raised by the dissenting opinions concerning the scope and validity of the right. Part III addresses the practical implication of the decision and concludes that the right of state and federal prisoners to access legal information in preparing legal papers stands on firmer ground after this decision.

Simple Justice In The Cradle Of Liberty: Desegregating The Boston Public Schools, Ronald R. Edmonds

Vanderbilt Law Review

This Article provides a summary view of the desegregation of the Boston public schools. Some aspects of teaching and learning in the Boston schools clearly have improved as a direct consequence of Boston's desegregation, while others seem little affected. Teaching and learning are mentioned at the outset because later discussion will establish that black Bostonians seek desegregation as part of their larger and more general quest for improved schooling for their children.' The success or failure of desegregation therefore may fairly be judged partly on the basis of its effect upon the quality of schooling made available to black children. …
