Lights, Camera, Actionable Negligence: Transmission Of The Aids Virus During Adult Motion Picture Production, Francisco G. Torres

UC Law SF Communications and Entertainment Journal

Adult motion picture production is an activity in which the risk of HIV transmission is extremely high. Film producers' failure to employ safe sex practices and California legislation prohibiting AIDS testing by employers have combined to create an unsafe working environment for performers. This Note examines the potential liability of producers for transmission of HIV during the production of an adult motion picture. This Note then proposes that California Health and Safety Code section 199.21 be amended to allow adult motion picture producers to use AIDS test results to determine employability of performers.

The Magic Circle: Inclusion Of Adopted Children In Testamentary Class Gifts, Victoria M. Mather

Faculty Articles

In two recent Texas appellate court decisions, the courts were faced with the problem of deciding whether a testator meant to include, or at least did not intend to exclude, adopted children in a testamentary class gift. Courts across the United States have struggled with this issue in recent years, and an increasing number are holding that gifts to children, issue, or lineal descendants do not necessarily exclude adopted children. However, in both Texas cases, the courts held that the adopted children could not take as members of the class. This result is contrary to both the modem trend of …

The United States Of America, Champion Of The Rule Of Law Or The New World Order?, Jeffrey F. Addicott

Faculty Articles

The New World Order was to herald in a new era in international affairs. It was to be an era of collective security sponsored and reinforced by the United Nations. In reality, however, the natural desire to enlarge the New World Order has quickly met with failure.

As the failures of the New World Order mount, the phrase loses its power. No peace movement has ever been premised on maintaining a strong and viable military, and no proponent of the New World Order can ever hope to be immune from the wishful thinking of those who demand the dismantling of …

Natural Law As Practical Methodology: A Finnisian Analysis Of City Of Richmond V. Croson, David R. Barnhizer

Law Faculty Articles and Essays

The first part of this article examines some of the main features of Finnis's theory of natural law. It suggests that Finnis offers a "soft" theory of natural law anchored in a richer and more realistic conception of human nature than has generally characterized natural law theory. The article's second part briefly describes some methodological aspects of Finnis's theory. The third part seeks to apply Finnis's principles to Justice O'Connor's opinion in City of Richmond v. J. A. Croson Co., a decision that makes it extremely difficult for state and local governments to combat the subtle devises and consequences of …

The Hormone Conflict Between The Eec And The United States Within The Context Of Gatt, Werner P. Meng

Michigan Journal of International Law

For many years, consumer organizations within the European Community have demanded the prohibition of natural and synthetic hormones from use in animal fodder. Since the level of hormone use by breeders varies among Member States, demands for a hormone prohibition have also differed in intensity from State to State. After lengthy negotiations beset with legal difficulties, a general, community-wide prohibition became reality at the beginning of 1989. The price of this policy has been trade difficulties with the United States which, up to the present time,' have resulted in trade sanctions and economic losses on both sides. Since both parties …

Natural Law As Practical Methodology: A Finnisian Analysis Of City Of Richmond V. J. A. Croson, Co., David Barnhizer

Cleveland State Law Review

The first part of this article examines some of the main features of Finnis's theory of natural law. It suggests that Finnis offers a "soft" theory of natural law anchored in a richer and more realistic conception of human nature than has generally characterized natural law theory. It brings forth the role of Aristotelian practicality in Finnis's thinking. Finally, the first part of the article discusses the roles of what Finnis calls basic human goods, attempting to suggest how the particular basic human goods he advances intuitively provide an important component of a framework for a more realistic variety of …

Nutrition And Hydration Under Ohio's Dpah: Judicial Misconstruction Threatens The Right To Choose Death With Dignity, June Mary Zekan Makdisi

Cleveland State Law Review

Recent count indicates that 10,000 Americans now remain, for whatever reason, in an incurable and persistent vegetative condition, trapped in a state of life made possible by aggressive life support systems. A dilemma exists: How do these non-cognitive individuals fit into the legal definitions of life and death? What rights do they, their guardians, or others have in decisions concerning artificial life support, including nutrition and hydration? To resolve the dilemma, a policy based on sound reasoning needs to be established in Ohio to determine if and when the termination of life support, including nutrition and hydration, can occur. Recently, …

Frozen Embryos: What Are They And How Should The Law Treat Them, Michelle F. Sublett

Cleveland State Law Review

This note is concerned with the question currently facing the courts: once an embryo is frozen, what should become of it in a dispute over what should happen to it, and who has the right to make that decision? In addressing this question, this note will first establish the process through which frozen embryos are created, and the resulting dilemma of definitional problems among the medical and legal professions. Next the article will survey the current state of the law to discover how prenatal beings have been treated traditionally, how this should affect frozen embryo disposition, and how trends are …

The Impact Of 1992 On United States Export Control Laws, Giovanna M. Cinelli

UC Law SF International Law Review

United States export control laws govern the majority of trade in dual use and defense related items and services between the United States and its major trading partners. The present system requires licenses and reexport authorization for the goods which are traded. For several years, however, United States trading partners have objected to the reach of these laws and United States industry has complained of the competitive disadvantage to which these laws subject many international companies. The onset of the economic integration of Europe, an integration which will result in the world's largest market, has refocused United States congressional and …

Dna Data Banking: The Dangerous Erosion Of Privacy, E. Donald Shapiro, Michelle L. Weinberg

Cleveland State Law Review

This article begins by describing the increasing prominence of DNA evidence in legal matters, before explaining how investigatory agencies wish to use DNA in their criminal investigations: primarily DNA banks and DNA testing large portions of the population in the wake of a crime. The article goes on to discuss privacy concerns about DNA profiling and DNA databanks. It discusses the differences between traditional fingerprint banks, and the greater privacy threats posed by the DNA banks. It moves on to point out the various public and private sector abuses possible with wide-spread DNA profiling. Finally, the authors suggest that legislation …
