Mediation: A Systemic Alternative To Litigation For Resolution Of Church Employment Disputes, J. Michael Fitzgerald, Lynne M.L. Fitzgerald

St. Thomas Law Review

The Catholic Church is a multi-layered system composed of people, as well as entities (e.g., corporations, partnerships, etc.), many of which have been created in an American civil law model. They include, but are not limited to: local parish churches, schools, newspapers, radio and television stations, hospitals, nursing homes, cemeteries, hospices and credit unions. By necessity they employ people to carry out their functions. Disputes can and do arise between these employers and their employees. It has been proposed that methods which are compatible with the conciliatory ways of the Church can be implemented in resolving such disputes. Specifically, this …

Jails And Prisons -- Reservoirs Of Tb Disease: Should Defendants With Hiv Infection (Who Cannot Swim) Be Thrown Into The Reservoir?, Faith Colangelo, Mariana Hogan

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The resurgence of tuberculosis (TB) in urban areas has direct and alarming consequences within the criminal justice system. Lock-up facilities, jails and prisons are TB breeding grounds. TB strikes with vengeance in populations with physical vulnerabilities caused by alcoholism, drug addiction, malnutrition, and HIV/AIDS and other immune-suppressing conditions. This Essay argues that it is time for New York State to reevaluate the mandatory sentencing laws and restrictions on plea bargaining. The interaction of HIV disease and TB offers a striking example of why justice is not served by binding the judiciary's hands. This Essay provides a medical overview of HIV …

Has The Time Come For Doctor Death: Should Physician-Assisted Suicide Be Legalized?, Wendy N. Weigand Jan 1993

Has The Time Come For Doctor Death: Should Physician-Assisted Suicide Be Legalized?, Wendy N. Weigand

Journal of Law and Health

A "true" doctor-assisted suicide can be distinguished from euthanasia in that the patient is actually bringing his or her own life to an end. The doctor in some way facilitates the action, either by providing the means for the suicide, such as in the New England Journal of Medicine article, or by giving the patient some kind of instruction as to the best way of carrying out the act. The difference lies in the fact that it is the patient killing him or herself with the help or advice of a physician, not the physician acting directly to shorten the …

How I Changed My Mind, Thomas L. Shaffer Jan 1993

How I Changed My Mind, Thomas L. Shaffer

Journal Articles

My own changes of mind are not unique. I am one of a small group of law teachers who have, over the last thirty years, become clearer in formulating an Hebraic legal ethic. We are a minority who have become bolder. We owe such courage as we have located for that to modern pioneers, most notably Harold Berman, and, more lately, Emily Hartigan. What has changed most for us has been the clarity of our public witness; the substance all along has been old-time religion. When I say "clarity" I mean that we have come to see this substance in …

Legal And Policy Aspects Of Home Care Coverage, S. Mitchell Weitzman

Annals of Health Law and Life Sciences

Home health care is a compassionate, cost-effective, and practical alternative for some individuals who require long-term or constant care. However, the coverage of home health care costs is far from comprehensive under the Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay systems. A uniform and comprehensive coverage system is necessary.
