Student Representation Of Indigent Defendants And The Sixth Amendment: On A Collision Course, Robert M. Hardaway Jan 1980

Student Representation Of Indigent Defendants And The Sixth Amendment: On A Collision Course, Robert M. Hardaway

Cleveland State Law Review

This article will review the parallel patterns of development of clinical education and the sixth amendment, highlighting areas in which the practices of the former either conflict, or contain the potential for conflict with the latter. An analysis will be made of the present legal status of law student representation of indigent criminal defendants, with reference primarily to constitutional and sixth amendment considerations, but also to such related matters as the confidentiality of student-client communications, law student professional responsibility, and the applicability to students of state bar disciplinary rules. Finally, guidelines will be proposed regarding the proper scope of student …


Love, Professional Responsibility, The Rule Of Law, And Clinical Legal Education, Steven H. Leleiko Jan 1980

Love, Professional Responsibility, The Rule Of Law, And Clinical Legal Education, Steven H. Leleiko

Cleveland State Law Review

The primary purpose of this article is to explore the tensions which arise in persons who come to law school because they view the practice of law as an expression of their love and concern for people. In examining the underlying causes of these tensions, six related factors will be looked at: (1) the relationship between the values of traditional legal education and the support or lack of support which these values afford to the affective characteristics of students; (2) the role of one's job as a means of expressing love; (3) the role of job satisfaction in one's life; …


Here's What We Do: Some Notes About Clinical Legal Education, Stephen Wizner, Dennis Curtis Jan 1980

Here's What We Do: Some Notes About Clinical Legal Education, Stephen Wizner, Dennis Curtis

Cleveland State Law Review

For the past decade we have been engaged in developing the Yale Law School clinical program. From time to time academic colleagues, practicing lawyers, and even non-lawyers have asked what we do. Until we were invited to do so, however, we never could bring ourselves to put down on paper some of our thoughts about legal education in general, and clinical legal education in particular, gleaned from years of working in the field. These notes represent a beginning in that direction.


The Contradictions Of Clinical Legal Education, Ralph S. Tyler, Robert S. Catz Jan 1980

The Contradictions Of Clinical Legal Education, Ralph S. Tyler, Robert S. Catz

Cleveland State Law Review

The central thesis of this commentary is that clinical methodology is sound theoretically, as it provides a necessary and vital complement to other modes of legal education, but that the exciting potential of this method will not be realized so long as law school clinical programs rely primarily on "live client" cases to teach their students. Because the live client model is used extensively in clinical programs, this commentary will assess that model of clinical education by seeking to identify the problems associated with maintaining a law office in the law school environment. Particular attention will be given to the …


Clinical Legal Education: The Case Against Separatism, Frank W. Munger Jan 1980

Clinical Legal Education: The Case Against Separatism, Frank W. Munger

Cleveland State Law Review

In this article I attempt to support my conclusion that the future of clinical education lies in its contributions to the classroom, rather than in its function as an independent source of training. This last phase of the clinical movement is the most important, and will constitute the greatest contribution of clinicians to legal education. I will argue that the concerns of clinicians have stimulated the soundest recent thinking about improvements in legal education, and that, therefore, clinics should be used to develop innovations in teaching which can be applied to the traditional classroom. If my arguments are valid, then …

Recent Developments In Missouri: Civil Practice And Procedure, Jeffrey B. Berman Jan 1980

Recent Developments In Missouri: Civil Practice And Procedure, Jeffrey B. Berman

Faculty Works

Although many recent decisions have altered Missouri Civil Practice and Procedure in various ways, the courts and the Missouri Bar Advisory Committee have made significant changes in several important areas. By interpreting statutes and promulgating ethical opinions, these institutions have crystallized Missouri law concerning attorneys' fees and liens-an area of interest to all attorneys. This article also surveys the recent evolution in Missouri law concerning jurisdiction, access to the courts, collateral estoppel, the effect of releases, and procedural devices such as impleader and joinder.

The Legacy Of Clinical Education: Theories About Lawyering, Carrie Menkel-Meadow Jan 1980

The Legacy Of Clinical Education: Theories About Lawyering, Carrie Menkel-Meadow

Cleveland State Law Review

This article will examine some of the various schools of thought about what lawyers do. It is offered as a commentary on the beginning of a philosophy or sociology of lawyering that is derived from the clinical movement which will survive long after the pedagogical and political disputes about clinical methodology have been resolved. This is a subjective study which incorporates my own interpretations of the concepts of the various schools of thought. I describe the approaches to or theories about lawyering and their "creators" as I know them, recognizing that some major theories, schools and people may not for …


Professional Responsibility Of A Law Teachers, Norman Redlich Jan 1980

Professional Responsibility Of A Law Teachers, Norman Redlich

Cleveland State Law Review

What are the essential ingredients of the proposed code of professional responsibility for the law teacher? First, the law teacher should take seriously the subject of ethics and professional responsibility. Second, law teachers should insist on students adhering to professional standards. Third, the essential quid pro quo for insisting on high professional standards on the part of the student is for the law teacher to demonstrate respect for students and for their time. Law teachers should respond to the views of the students with the courtesy and respect accorded to fellow professionals. Respect for one's faculty colleagues is an important …


The Questionable Validity Of The Automatic Exemption Of Attorneys From Jury Service, Barbara Ann Dalvano Jan 1980

The Questionable Validity Of The Automatic Exemption Of Attorneys From Jury Service, Barbara Ann Dalvano

University of Richmond Law Review

On January 10, 1980 Senator Emick proposed a bill in the Virginia General Assembly to abolish the automatic and optional exemptions from jury service of persons engaged in certain occupations. The bill was not passed in its proposed form. Section 8.01-341, providing optional exemptions, still remains in force in its entirety. Automatic exemptions, however, were eliminated for optometrists, clerks of both houses of the General Assembly, ministers, jail keepers, superintendents of public and mental hospitals, undertakers, veterinarians, members of fire departments, pharmacists, clinical psychologists and citizens of Broad Water and Cobb Islands. Licensed practicing attorneys, however, along with several other …

Legal Representation Of The Mentally Ill, James R. Elkins Dec 1979

Legal Representation Of The Mentally Ill, James R. Elkins

West Virginia Law Review

The "rights revolution," sparked by the United States Supreme Court under the leadership of former Chief Justice Earl Warren, has abated as the Court modifies and in some instances emasculates the constitutional rights afforded criminal defendants. While the Supreme Court assumes a more “moderate" position regarding the rights of criminal defendants and takes a closer look at due process decisions generally, the "rights revolution" has had substantial spillover effect in the case of individuals confined involuntarily in mental institutions. The courts, especially federal courts, have recognized the constitutional basis of procedural and substantive safeguards for individuals subject to commitment in …

Benign Solicitation Of Clients By Attorneys, Joe Wishcamper Jun 1979

Benign Solicitation Of Clients By Attorneys, Joe Wishcamper

Washington Law Review

The purpose of this comment is to discuss the social benefits offered by benign commercial solicitation, examine the weaknesses in the current ABA rules and court doctrine, and suggest arguments that could be presented to persuade a court to abandon the traditional doctrine and provide protection for such solicitation. An alternative approach is presented which suggests dealing with solicitation cases by applying a "circumstances" oriented test. The suggested test would avoid some of the infirmities of the present doctrine and would be more useful in predicting outcomes of such cases.
