The Nikkei Case: Toward A More Uniform Application Of The Direct Effect Clause Of The Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, J. Blair Richardson, Jr. Jan 1980

The Nikkei Case: Toward A More Uniform Application Of The Direct Effect Clause Of The Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, J. Blair Richardson, Jr.

Fordham International Law Journal

This Note will first examine the general purpose of the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act and attempt to ascertain the intended meaning of the direct effect clause. It will then compare and contrast the Nikkei court's interpretation of the clause with the interpretations used in the other recent cases in the Southern District involving Nigerian cement contract disputes. Finally, this Note will suggest that the approach used in Nikkei is both correct and consistent with congressional intent as manifested in the legislative history of the Act.

New York Proposed Code Of Evidence: Article V, The Symposium: The New York Proposed Code Of Evidence, Michael M. Martin Jan 1980

New York Proposed Code Of Evidence: Article V, The Symposium: The New York Proposed Code Of Evidence, Michael M. Martin

Faculty Scholarship

Article V of the New York Proposed Code of Evidence sets forth the rules of evidentiary privilege. Unlike other articles of the Proposed Code, it differs significantly from its federal counterpart. Article V of the Federal Rules of Evidence consists of only rule 501, which provides that, unless otherwise required by the constitution or federal statute, privileges in federal courts are governed by "the principles of the common law as they may be interpreted... in the light of reason and experience." Rule 501 further provides, however, that questions of privilege in civil cases as to which state law supplies the …


Trigger Price Mechanism: Protecting Competition Or Competitors, The , Jacqueline Nolan-Haley Jan 1980

Trigger Price Mechanism: Protecting Competition Or Competitors, The , Jacqueline Nolan-Haley

Faculty Scholarship

The International Trade Commission asserted that for most of 1978 and probably for the indefinite future, the TPM was "the greatest single factor influencing the conditions of competition" in the U.S. steel industry. The precise contours of this influence are uncertain. While it is premature to assess adequately the economic impact of the TPM, it is possible to make some observations vis-a-vis our national antitrust policy goals. The TPM, like the steel VRA's of 1972, has had no discernable impact on increasing efficiency through expansion, modernization or development of domestic steel-making technology. The TPM, however, does have an impact on …

Warrantless Arrests In Homes: Another Crisis For The Fourth Amendment , Darren O'Connor

Fordham Urban Law Journal

This comment addresses the distinction between a forcible entry for an arrest and one for a search. In doing so, the comment looks to the fourth amendment's bifurcated standard for searches and those for arrests. Balancing governmental interests with the privacy rights of individuals, the comment relays that a warrantless entry into the home for an arrest shall only be acceptable given certain exigent circumstances.

Emergency Tenant Protection In New York: Ten Years Of Rent Stabilization, Diane Ungar Jan 1979

Emergency Tenant Protection In New York: Ten Years Of Rent Stabilization, Diane Ungar

Fordham Urban Law Journal

New York City's rent stabilization system was designed as an alternative to the rent control system. Rent stabilization looked to the owners for supervision as a way to benefit not only the system but tenants through an informed and experienced administration. Unfortunately, the system has had its fair share of shortcomings as rules have become technical, complex, and ill equipped to address the concerns of tenants. This comment examines the stabilization system's history and its current status. Though the current system has flaws, the flaws can be fixed and must be to protect NYC tenants and owners.


Administrative Agencies And The Rites Of Due Process: Alternatives To Excessive Litigation, Daniel Lee Feldman Jan 1979

Administrative Agencies And The Rites Of Due Process: Alternatives To Excessive Litigation, Daniel Lee Feldman

Fordham Urban Law Journal

With the growth of courtroom litigation, it has become necessary for congress to look to administrative agencies to act in an adjudicative nature. In expanding the role of administrative agencies for efficiency and economic concerns, it is particularly important to still consider the due process rights of citizens. This article addresses the need to balance the procedural due process rights of individuals with the use of administrative agencies to eliminate or at the very least reduce excessive litigation.


Fiduciary Standards As Applied Under Erisa, Rosemary B. Orr Jan 1979

Fiduciary Standards As Applied Under Erisa, Rosemary B. Orr

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) resulted in large changes in the laws of private pensions. However, with the use of exculpatory and indemnification provisions, ERISA has been limited in its ability to enhance the strength of fiduciary requirements for pension trustees. This comment examines the statutory language of ERISA and looks to understand judicial interpretation to look to the future of ERISA.
