Naming The Grotesque Body In The "Nascent Jurisprudence Of Transsexualism", Richard F. Storrow Jan 1997

Naming The Grotesque Body In The "Nascent Jurisprudence Of Transsexualism", Richard F. Storrow

Michigan Journal of Gender & Law

After a description of an analytical framework constructed of theories drawn from the writings of Mikhail Bahktin, Roland Barthes, and Sigmund Freud, this Article discusses the discrepancies in courts' use of medical authority in cases considering the rights of transsexuals and then analyzes courts' ultimate refusal to recognize transsexuals' psychological sex. The thrust of this Article is an examination of the forces compelling such inconsistencies. The result is an analysis which interweaves medical, juridical, psychological and mythic perspectives to disclose the underpinnings of courts' antipathy toward transsexuals.

American Mining Congress V. Army Corps Of Engineers: Ignoring Chevron And The Clean Water Act's Broad Purpose, Bradford Mank

Faculty Articles and Other Publications

Part I of this article will provide a brief introduction to section 404 of the Clean Water Act. Part II will examine the Tulloch rule. Part III will examine the district court's opinion. Finally, part IV will demonstrate that section 404(a) is ambiguous regarding whether incidental fallback from dredging may in some circumstances constitute disposal under the statute and, accordingly, that under the Chevron doctrine the district court erred in failing to defer to the agencies' Tulloch rule.

The Ethics Of Judicial Decision-Making Regarding Custody Of Minor Children: Looking At The Best Interests Of The Child" And The "Primary Caretaker" Standards As Utility Rules, Kathryn Mercer Jan 1997

The Ethics Of Judicial Decision-Making Regarding Custody Of Minor Children: Looking At The Best Interests Of The Child" And The "Primary Caretaker" Standards As Utility Rules, Kathryn Mercer

Faculty Publications

This article will examine how a judge's ethical framework can influence the outcome of a custody award, even where the same "child-centered" standard is ostensibly being used. This article uses three cases from the Supreme Court of Nebraska to demonstrate that the "best interests of the child" standard can be used: 1) to award a parent custody because parents have near absolute rights (an example of rule deontology); 2) to deny a parent custody because the par ent is unfit (an example of rule utilitarianism); or 3) to deny a parent custody because the child's life needs stability (an example …

Two Precipices, One Chasm: The Economics Of Physician-Assisted Suicide And Euthanasia, Nelson Lund Jan 1997

Two Precipices, One Chasm: The Economics Of Physician-Assisted Suicide And Euthanasia, Nelson Lund

UC Law Constitutional Quarterly

In Washington v. Glucksberg and Vacco v. Quill, the Supreme Court refused to create a constitutional right to assisted suicide, but apparently left Congress and the states wide discretion to experiment with new legislation. For the moment, most jurisdictions seem inclined to preserve the traditional legal prohibitions against this practice. Deeper forces in our society, however, may soon push us toward accepting assisted suicide, and much harsher forms of hastened dying as well.

This Article presents two distinct but related arguments. Part I argues that legalizing assisted suicide, whether through judicial or legislative action, would be a mistake because the …
