Canadian Environmental Law In The Eighties: Problems And Perspectives, Peter Z. R. Finkle

Dalhousie Law Journal

Environmental law in Canada has developed slowly during the last two decades. While the rise and popularisation of the environmental movement of the sixties and early seventies did encourage the creation of a federal Department of Environment and many provincial counterparts, as well as facilitate the passage of a number of pieces of legislation, there is some question as to how substantial an impact the institutions and legislation have made on Canada society. One problem which has beset the development of adequate environmental legislation is the significant gap which has opened up between the words on paper, the "black letter …

Federal Regulation Of Emerging Genetic Technologies, Thomas O. Mcgarity, Karl O. Bayer

Vanderbilt Law Review

Over the past ten years scientists have perfected revolutionary techniques in the field of genetic engineering. Although this new technology promises to have enormous commercial and industrial value, some scientists fear that the risks accompanying genetic experimentation may outweigh its social benefits. In their Article Professor McGarity and Mr. Bayer examine the legal debate over how government should regulate this emerging technology. After describing various genetic engineering techniques and the risks underlying their use, Professor McGarity and Mr. Bayer discuss the elements of a regulatory framework adequate to handle the new technology and assess the existing regulatory structure in terms …

The Northwest Power Act And Reserved Tribal Rights, Allen H. Sanders

Washington Law Review

Since the implementation of the Act's fish protection provisions will undoubtedly affect the scope of protection provided to Indian tribes, the Act's ambiguities must be interpreted in a way that honors and preserves these reserved tribal rights. This article examines the substantial body of case law applicable to these reserved tribal rights, with particular attention to the major fish protection issues that may arise under the Act.

The Constitutionality Of Chemical Test Presumptions Of Intoxication In Motor Vehicle Statutes, Stephen G. Thompson

San Diego Law Review

This Article explores the state statutes that create a presumption that a person is intoxicated if his blood alcohol concentration is greater than a specified percentage, usually that of 0.10 percent. The author examines the validity of these presumptions in light of recent Supreme Court decisions on the constitutionality of presumptions, with special focus on the Court's decisions in County Court of Ulster County v. Allen and Sandstrom v. Montana. He examines these decisions, and outlines the standards established by these cases. He then applies these standards to four types of presumptions and inferences that have been created via statute. …

Justifying The Denial Of Wrongful Death Actions To Cohabitants, Michael Fish

San Diego Law Review

This Comment explores the California Supreme Court's decision in Justus v. Atchison, which held that a common law death claim brought by a deceased's cohabitant was barred because the state's wrongful death statute barred such persons from recovering. The author examines the history of the wrongful death statute in California and the court's decision that such a claim was precluded because the state legislature had occupied the field. The author concludes that the court's holding in Justus was correct and that policy considerations militate against recognizing the cohabitant's wrongful death cause of action.

The Necessity Of Granting A Cause Of Action To An Unborn Viable Fetus Under The Pennsylvania Wrongful Death And Survival Acts, Regis Myles Mcclelland

Duquesne Law Review

The majority of state courts have granted a cause of action to an unborn viable fetus under their state wrongful death and/or survival acts. This comment offers a comparison of the various state court decisions and provides a critique of the recent Pennsylvania Supreme Court Opinion in Scott v. Kopp. The author concludes that the present Pennsylvania position is incongruous with the realities of modern medicine, the overwhelming weight of authority, and Pennsylvania tort law. As a result, Pennsylvania is compelled to grant a cause of action to an unborn viable fetus under the Pennsylvania wrongful death and survival …

Free Speech And The Assumption Of Rationality, Frederick Schauer

Vanderbilt Law Review

First amendment doctrine is now both broad and complex, and the task of writing about all of it seems at least forbidding and perhaps impossible. Unthwarted by the magnitude of the mission, however, Franklyn Haiman has attempted, in Speech and Law in a Free Society,7 to survey and to integrate almost every area in which the first amendment restricts or should restrict the powers of the states and the federal government. Haiman's book is in some ways reminiscent of Thomas Emer-son's The System of Freedom of Expression." Like Emerson,Haiman devotes only a relatively brief introductory portion of his book to …

Does Wildlife Have Legal Standing? - The Penguin Case In Patagonia, Pedro Tarak

Laws and Legislation Collection

The Magellan penguin populations in the Patagonian province of Argentina were recently threatened by a proposed joint Japanese-Argentine venture to exploit them on a massive scale. The firm, Hinode Penguin Argentina, wished to begin slaughtering what it termed "excess" penguins, and to process the dead birds into skins for the world market; the carcasses were to be converted to a protein extract for local consumption.

Upon learning about this venture, Argentine conservation groups mobilized their forces quickly- formulating and implementing media campaigns, soliciting scientific opinions from local and worldwide experts, and concocting legal strategies. The legal tactics alone, although initially …
