Surrogacy And Adoption: A Case Of Incompatibility, Barbara L. Atwell

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

This Article explores the public policy doctrine relating to contracts generally and examines specific public policies set forth in state adoption statutes. The Article concludes that surrogate parenting agreements are 1) incompatible with consent provisions of state adoption statutes, 2) inconsistent with state laws prohibiting baby-selling, and 3) inconsistent with state adoption provisions that provide for a thorough investigation of the adoptive parents in order to ensure that the adoption serves the child's best interests. Accordingly, this Article suggests that as state legislatures debate the best means of addressing the issue of surrogate parenting, they should recognize that surrogate parenting …

The Skeleton In The Closet: The Battered Woman Syndrome, Self Defense, And Expert Testimony, Victoria M. Mather

Faculty Articles

The criminal justice system must deal fairly, through the use of expert testimony, with the battered woman who strikes back at her abuser with deadly results. Society-at-large does not understand the battered woman, the batterer, and their relationship; historically, the criminal justice system’s response to the predicament of the battered woman has been ineffective.

The use of expert testimony in homicide cases where an allegedly battered wife kills her abuser and then claims self-defense is a controversial proposition. The evidence, however, shows that women are frequently the victims of abuse, that patterns of behavior associated with battering relationships usually exist, …

Abortion And Liberalism: A Comparison Between The Abortion Decisions Of The Supreme Court Of The United States And The Constitutional Court Of West Germany, Douglas G. Morris

UC Law SF International Law Review

Liberalism defines a relationship between individuals and the state in which individuals are treated equally by laws which provide certain rights. One of the central problems of applying liberal ideals is determining who the individuals accorded equal treatment are. A related problem is deciding who can make this determination. These problems also arise in court decisions concerning abortions. In its 1973 decision in Roe v. Wade, the United States Supreme Court declared unconstitutional a law that treated most abortions as crimes. Two years later, the Constitutional Court of West Germany struck down a national law that liberalized abortions. This Article …

Wrongful Birth And Wrongful Life Actions Arising From Negligent Genetic Counseing: The Need For Legislation Supporting Reproductive Choice, Kathryn J. Jankowski

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The Note discusses wrongful birth and wrongful life actions arising from negligent genetic counseling and explains why they should be recognized statutorily. It details the technological advances in the field of genetics and their implications for the legal duty imposed upon the medical profession. The author traces the judicial developments that led to the gradual recognition of wrongful birth actions and the refusal to recognize wrongful life actions, as well as the recent legislation that has barred both wrongful birth and wrongful life actions. The author proposes a model statute based on the following policy considerations: (1) procreative choice is …

Onshore Oil And Gas Leasing On Public Lands: At What Point Does Nepa Require The Preparation Of An Environmental Impact Statement, Thomas D. Mauriello

San Diego Law Review

The National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) has become the major legal instrument for monitoring and litigating conflicts between oil and gas development, and other resource values on federal public lands. Courts have differed over whether the issuance of oil and gas leases triggers NEPA's environmental impact statement requirement. This Comment suggests that, while NEPA has some inherent limitations as a land use planning statute, courts can and should provide aggressive review of agency leasing decisions in order to effectuate NEPA's policies.

Academic Freedom And Academic Values In Sponsored Research, Rebecca S. Eisenberg

Articles

In this Article I examine the traditional American conception of academic freedom and analyze its implications for universities formulating policies on the acceptance of sponsored research. I begin by reviewing the basic policy statements of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) on academic freedom to identify both the academic values implicit in those statements and the assumptions about institutional relationships and individual incentives underlying their prescriptions for advancing those values. I then evaluate the validity of those underlying assumptions in contemporary sponsored research and argue that academic freedom as traditionally conceived might no longer effectively advance academic values in …

Social Control: Analytical Tool Or Analytical Quagmire?, Shelley A. M. Gavigan, Dorothy E. Chunn

Articles & Book Chapters

There is probably no concept which is used more widely and with less precision than that of 'social control'. Given the lack of agreement about what 'social control' is, researchers usually employ the term in one of two ways. Either they assume that its meaning is obvious and requires no clarification, or, they begin with a perfunctory acknowledgment of the definitional problems associated with the concept and proceed to use it anyway. The eclecticism of the latter approach has stimulated attempts over the years to produce a universally applicable definition of 'social control' that could be empioyed both systematically and …
