From Coitus To Commerce: Legal And Social Consequences Of Noncoital Reproduction, Joan Heifetz Hollinger

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

This paper argues that there is an urgent need for the creation and clarification of a legal framework within which contemporary efforts to produce or procure children can take place. State legislatures should act now in order to avoid the kind of crisis that confronts Great Britain, where an infant girl, the product of a breached surrogacy contract, has been impounded by a British court. While the court ponders how to determine the legal parentage of this particular child, Parliament considers criminal penalties for those who arrange surrogacy contracts and general regulations to constrain IVF and ET research and practice. …

Increased Risk Of Disease From Hazardous Waste: A Proposal For Judicial Relief, Brent Carson

Washington Law Review

This Comment addresses the need to provide adequate and present remedies for individuals exposed to toxic wastes. Part I describes the prevailing "reasonable medical certainty" rule and shows how it unjustly prevents recovery by plaintiffs exposed to hazardous waste. Part II examines one method of avoiding the injustice of the "reasonable medical certainty" rule. The adoption of an "extent of the injury" rule would allow courts to recognize genetic or cellular damage as injury, and provide some hazardous waste victims with a remedy for their increased risk of disease. In Part III a better solution is proposed—accepting increased risk as …

The purpose of the programme is to promote an awareness of the place of rules respecting human conduct in political, social and economic …

Legal Education At Calgary: Blending Progress And Tradition, John P. S. Mclaren

Dalhousie Law Journal

The gestation period of the Faculty of Law, University of Calgary was a long one. After a short lived attempt to operate the Calgary College of Law in 1912-14, the southern Alberta city had to await the founding of the University of Calgary in 1966 before the setting up of a law school would emerge again as a serious possibility.' In 1969, after positive recommendations from both the Law Society of Alberta and the Calgary Bar Association that a law school be established at the new university, the latter under the leadership of President Fred Carruthers formed a sub-committee of …

The Myth Of State Intervention In The Family, Frances E. Olsen

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

Most people concede that there are times when state officials should intervene in the private family. Doctrines of family privacy are no longer thought to justify societal neglect of beaten wives or abused children. Yet society continues to use the ideal of the private family to orient policy. It seems important therefore to examine the concept of state intervention in the private family. In this essay, I argue that the private family is an incoherent ideal and that the rhetoric of nonintervention is more harmful than helpful.

Sexual Offenders And The Use Of Depo-Provera, Lauren J. Abrams

San Diego Law Review

This Comment examines the use of Depo-Provera as a method of controlling criminal, sexually offensive behavior. The author discusses the legal and ethical concerns surrounding its use, with specific focus on the concerns of mandated medicine, informed consent, and the necessity for both punishment and rehabilitation. The author also suggests criteria for choosing appropriate candidates for Depo-Provera, as well as guidelines for treatment programs. The author concludes that the recognition of a medical component to this behavior offers hope for protection to sexual offenders and future victims, a hope that incarceration alone has been unable to provide.
