Deemed Liquidation: Whose Rate Is This Anyway, Lawrence M. Segan Jan 1986

Deemed Liquidation: Whose Rate Is This Anyway, Lawrence M. Segan

Fordham International Law Journal

This Note argues that there are many reasons to believe that Congress did intend section 504 to operate as a penalty on Customs for failure to liquidate in a timely manner. Part I discusses the process by which imports are liquidated and how section 504 has been implemented. Part II examines how the CIT has interpreted the statute. Part III argues that the practice of Customs and the CIT's interpretation conflict with the congressional intent behind section 504. Finally, this Note concludes that in order to conform to Congress' intent, the importer's asserted rate should be given effect in deemed …

A Case For Increased Disclosure, Deborah Abramovsky Jan 1985

A Case For Increased Disclosure, Deborah Abramovsky

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The confidentiality rule is important but not absolute. An attorney must weigh his obligations to his client against his obligations to the profession and to the community as a whole. Reasonable certainty of the existence of potential danger should create a duty to reveal client secrets, and thus, when an attorney learns of an imminent threat of death or serious bodily harm to a third party from his client, disclosure should be mandatory. This type of limited exception would not interfere with the client's constitutional rights or with the orderly administration of justice. The policy behind such an exception, i.e. …


Privacy Rights In Medical Records, Carole M. Cleaver Jan 1985

Privacy Rights In Medical Records, Carole M. Cleaver

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The privacy interest recognized in medical records is in its infancy, as legal protections of personal information are relatively new. Major changes in medical technology, the introduction of third-party payment, government participation in medical care, and computerization of record-keeping have expanded the amount, type and accessibility of health data available about a patient. Concurrently, health records are now requested for a number of purposes, such as, legal actions, law enforcement, public health evaluation, employment, credit-rating, etc. Only limited access to these records should be permitted in order to protect the patient, yet public policy concerns also call for the disclosure …

Executing Youthful Offenders: The Unanswered Question In Eddings V. Oklahoma, Rona L. Just

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The juvenile justice system was created to "treat" and to "rehabilitate" the juvenile offender.

This Note examines the theories of punishment underlying the death penalty, briefly discusses the creation of the juvenile court system and the mechanism of juvenile transfer. This Note then discusses the development of the death penalty by examining Supreme Court cases which have considered state laws challenged under the eighth amendment as forms of cruel and unusual punishment. Supreme Court decisions which have extended constitutional guarantees to …

After considering both the legal and nonlegal arguments, this Note concludes that there can not and should not be a mandatory death penalty for life-term prisoners who murder in New York. This Note recommends that the New York legislature draft a discretionary death penalty statute for life-term prisoners who murder. A discretionary death penalty statute, which provides for …

Notice Requirements: Federal Preemption Of State And Local Plant Closing Statutes, Joanne K. Guinan Jan 1985

Notice Requirements: Federal Preemption Of State And Local Plant Closing Statutes, Joanne K. Guinan

Fordham Urban Law Journal

In an attempt to ease the burden placed on employees by the sudden, unannounced closing of their workplaces, several states' and cities throughout the United States have passed "plant closing statutes." The Federal government's Taft-Hartley Act requires that a company give a union reasonable notice of a decision to close in order that meaningful bargaining may be undertaken. This Note examines the general application of the preemption doctrine especially in the labor relations field and then applies the doctrine, specifically, to plant closing statutes. The Note then examines the invalidity of state and local statutes in light of the doctrine …


New York's System Of Indeterminate Sentencing And Parole: Should It Be Abolished?, Jeanine M. Schupbach Jan 1985

New York's System Of Indeterminate Sentencing And Parole: Should It Be Abolished?, Jeanine M. Schupbach

Fordham Urban Law Journal

New York State's indeterminate sentencing and parole system of 1985 resulted in sentence disparity, uncertain and prolonged prison terms and prisoner unrest rather than in peaceful prison rehabilitation. The length of imprisonment and time of release under an indeterminate sentencing system are dependent upon the prisoner's need for and responsiveness to correctional treatment programs. In response to the problems of indeterminate sentencing, the federal government and several state legislatures abandoned or modified indeterminacy and have adopted a variety of fixed sentencing plans. This Note describes the history and development of the indeterminate sentencing and parole system. It exposes the flaws …

The Minneapolis Anti-Pornography Ordinance: A Valid Assertion Of Civil Rights?, Winifred Ann Sandler Jan 1985

The Minneapolis Anti-Pornography Ordinance: A Valid Assertion Of Civil Rights?, Winifred Ann Sandler

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The author of this student note examines a recent Minneapolis city ordinance that declares pornography to be both subordination of and a form of sex discrimination towards women. First Amendment proponents challenged the ordinance as unconstitutional. The author considers whether the state has a compelling interest in protecting its citizens from civil rights violations, and whether that interest can overcome first amendment rights. The author concludes that pornography is neither a civil rights violation, nor a category of unprotected speech.
