Modus Korupsi Perbankan: Penyelewengan Klaim Asuransi Debitur Meninggal Dunia, Muhammad Alfan Nur Zuhaid, Navy Sasmita, Radite Panji Perdana

Technology and Economics Law Journal

Lending by banks is generally covered by insurance as mitigation in the event of the borrower's death. The insurance can be in the form of insurance issued by general insurance companies or life insurance companies that have the aim of protecting not only the bank as a creditor but also the borrower's heirs so that the borrower's heirs do not need to be burdened to repay the remaining loans and on the other hand the bank's liquidity and profitability are maintained. At an ideal level, if the borrower dies, the bank will make an insurance claim to the insurance company, …

Examining The Relationship Between Casino Employee Gambling Involvement, Demographic Characteristics, And Responsible Gambling Program Perceptions, Tiange (Patrick) Xu, Shane W. Kraus, Brett Abarbanel, Eric R. Louderback, Heather M. Gray, Debi A. Laplante, Bo J. Bernhard

UNLV Gaming Research & Review Journal

This study investigated past-year gambling involvement (i.e., frequency and breadth) among employees at MGM Resorts International (MGM) and their views on the effectiveness of MGM’s responsible gambling (RG) program (i.e., GameSense). It also examined associations between these views and employees’ gambling behavior, as well as their demographic and work-related characteristics. We used cross-sectional data drawn from a broader research project, which surveyed a large sample of MGM employees (n = 814) in 2020. Our analysis revealed that gambling frequency varied by ethnicity, department affiliations, and property location, while gambling breadth differed based on gender and department affiliations. We employed …

Borders Beyond Borders: Offshore Asylum Processing Across The Globe, Marcelina Kropiwnicka

Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review (CICLR) Blog

Every country in the world, from the largest to the smallest, has an immigration policy. While much attention has been given to the United States, particularly as Trump continues to implement restrictive immigration measures in his second administration through executive orders and policy changes, the U.S. is far from the only country with tight borders. Others around the world are outsourcing their asylum systems, thus limiting asylum opportunities and creating legal frameworks that prioritize deterrence over protection. These systems, while justified by claims of national security and resource management, raise serious ethical and legal concerns about the commodification of human …

The Future Of Warfare: National Positions On The Governance Of Lethal Autonomous Weapons Systems, Benjamin Perrin, Masoud Zamani

All Faculty Publications

Lethal autonomous weapons systems (LAWS), such as drones and autonomous missile systems, are no longer a theoretical concern. Indeed, they are finding their way onto the battlefield. Amid growing international concern, States have articulated a range of positions on how LAWS should be governed, ranging from relying on existing international law(traditionalists), to a legal ban on LAWS (prohibitionists), to a new treaty that would ban certain uses and regulate others to “clarify and strengthen existing law” (dualists). In this post, we analyze a flurry of recent international diplomatic efforts to address LAWS, focusing on these three main positions adopted by …

Million-Dollar Mysteries: Recent Complex Patent Cases Lost To Rule 36, Dennis D. Crouch

Faculty Publications

This article examines the Federal Circuit's continued use of Rule 36 summary affirmances to dispose of complex patent cases without written opinions. Through analysis of eight recent Rule 36 cases decided in early 2025, the author demonstrates that sophisticated legal issues involving millions of dollars are being summarily affirmed despite presenting novel and important questions of patent law. The cases discussed involve design patent evidentiary standards, jury trial rights for hybrid legal-equitable claims, analogous art determinations, claim construction, written description requirements, and PTAB procedural issues. The author argues that while the court may be avoiding difficult cases with complex factual …

Should The United States Abandon Citizenship-Based Taxation?, Reuven S. Avi-Yonah

Law & Economics Working Papers

President Trump proposed during the election campaign to end the "double taxation" of American citizens living overseas. To which the answer is, what double taxation? Americans living overseas already benefit from three significant provisions that in most cases prevent any double taxation, and because of these most of them do not have any U.S. tax liability. Those who do are typically wealthier, derive income from investments or from high wages, and are not subject to foreign tax because they live in tax havens or in countries that do not tax rich immigrants on foreign source income, and they do not …

Locational Data And The Public Interest, William A. Herbert, Micahel Goodchild, Richard Appelbaum, Jeremy Crampton, Gary Langham, Krzysztof Janowicz, Mei-Po Kwan, Katina Michael, Lisa Schamess

Publications and Research

This article presents a paper developed by the AAG Organizing Committee on Locational Information and the Public Interest through a summit held in Santa Barbara, California in June 2022. The summit resulted in goals and ideas for addressing the issues that arise from the present environment for geodata, whereby public, private, and third-sector entities can tap into publicly available locational information with relatively little regulation on its access or use. The Committee articulates four goals: (1) develop a research agenda extending across disciplines, (2) outline educational resources and strategies to guide ethical practice, (3) devise a pathway to increase public …

Dean Melanie Leslie’S Office, Melanie B. Leslie, Michael Herz

2025 Event Invitations

Join Dean Leslie and Professor Michael Herz to discuss presidential executive orders. On Inauguration Day, President Trump revoked 78 existing executive orders in one fell swoop and started signing new ones at a frenetic pace. There has never been quite such an attention-getting spree of these directives. Executive orders are not new; every President since George Washington has issued them. But they are often misunderstood. Professor Herz will discuss the history, nature, and effect of executive orders. The two will also answer questions raised by student attendees.

A Critical Appraisal Of Poverty In The Context Of Nature-Based Communities: Selected Cases From The Philippines, Carla Edith Gonzales Jimena

Dissertations and Theses

The Philippines is considered one of the wealthiest countries in both Southeast Asia and the world when measured by biodiversity, mineral resources and natural resources. It is also one of the most highly mineralized countries on earth. However, despite these natural endowments, when measured by established economic and human development indices the Philippines remains poor. Using critical perspectives derived from Marxist tradition, William Chambliss' theory of law and its dialectical nature, Immanuel Wallerstein's World Systems Theory, and Fred Block's structural mechanism of the state, this study aimed to critically appraise the persistence of poverty in nature-based communities in the Philippines. …

Preempting Paradigms: Nsmia, Esg Investing, And The Search For Market Integration, Robert T. Hill

Catholic University Law Review

This Comment evaluates the recent lawsuit filed by the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) against the Missouri Secretary of State, alleging violations of the National Securities Markets Improvement Act (NSMIA), Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), and commercial free speech. NSMIA significantly altered the regulatory landscape by preempting certain aspects of state securities laws, aiming to streamline regulations and foster national uniformity in securities markets. However, this federal preemption presents a complex dilemma when addressing the surge in ESG investing, where investors prioritize financial returns and social and environmental impacts. Accordingly, this Comment examines the interplay …

Delivery Drivers Deserve The Whole Package: Package Delivery Drivers And The Transportation Worker Exemption Of The Federal Arbitration Act, Evan Kelly

Catholic University Law Review

Package delivery is a ubiquitous part of modern American life, and package delivery driving is a fast-growing occupation in the United States. These drivers work long hours in a fast-paced, highly regimented environment, and because of arbitration agreements they are made to sign, they often cannot go to court to settle disputes with their employers. Under the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA), these arbitration agreements are generally “valid, irrevocable, and enforceable.” However, the FAA includes an exemption (known as the “Transportation Worker exemption”) that excludes arbitration agreements in “contracts of employment for seamen, railroad employees, or any other class of worker …

Money Market Funds: Comparison Of Regulations In The United States And European Union, Stephen T. Cohen, Austin G. Mccomb

Catholic University Law Review

Money market funds have proven to be a highly successful financial product, both in the United States and Europe. These funds have offered investors a competitive, short-term market rate of return, while providing diversification of investments and daily liquidity. Notwithstanding (or, perhaps, in spite of) money market funds’ popularity beginning in the late 1970s and early 1980s, money market funds have been subject to a complex set of regulations and intense focus by global regulators, particularly those in the United States and European Union. This regulatory scrutiny was particularly acute following the 2008 financial crisis and, more recently, after the …

Cutting Through The Gordian Knot: It’S Time To Revise Rule 17d-1 Under The Investment Company Act Of 1940, Jack W. Murphy

Catholic University Law Review

This article reviews the legislative and administrative history of Section 17(d) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 and Rule 17d-1 under that Section, which broadly prohibit any affiliated person or principal underwriter of a mutual fund or other registered investment company (a “Fund”) or any affiliated person of such a person or underwriter, from participating in a joint transaction with the Fund unless an application regarding the transaction has been filed with and approved by the SEC. The author maintains that the Rule’s scope is far broader than what is necessary to achieve the statutory purpose of protecting Funds …

Kickbacks In The Healthcare Space: Resolving The Causation Split, Joseph M. Hill

Catholic University Law Review

A three circuit split has left federal courts around the country struggling to find and apply the correct causation standard when faced with a False Claims Act suit which has been brought by way of the Anti-Kickback Statute. Uncertainty was created after one court found a lesser standard of causation was acceptable between the kickback and the false claim, while other courts found “but for” causation was required for these cases to survive. This comment analyzes the decisions of the relevant courts, as well as the common law origins of the False Claims Act, canons of construction, as well as …

The Digital Doctor-Patient Relationship: Imposing Heightened Duties On Femtech Apps, Kevin Frazier

The University of Cincinnati Intellectual Property and Computer Law Journal

The rapid rise of femtech apps has transformed the landscape of reproductive health, offering users access to information and services that were traditionally the domain of medical professionals. These apps, ranging from menstrual tracking to fertility planning tools, often position themselves as indispensable companions for users navigating critical health decisions. Yet, the legal frameworks governing these apps fail to account for the sensitive nature of the user-developer relationship, leaving users vulnerable to inaccurate guidance, data misuse, and inadequate recourse in cases of harm.

This essay argues that femtech app developers often assume roles akin to medical providers, creating relationships with …
