Section 60.41 Of The New York Criminal Procedure Law: The Sexual Assault Reform Act Of 1999 Challenges Molineux And Due Process, Brooks Holland
Fordham Urban Law Journal
The 1999 Sexual Assault Reform Act of 1999 proposed the addition of section 60.41 to Article 60 of the New York Criminal Procedure Law to allow prosecutors in sexual assault prosecutions to introduce evidence of a defendant's previous commission of any "offense or offenses of sexual assault.., on any matter to which it is relevant, including the defendant's propensity to commit an offense of sexual assault or the credibility of the alleged victim of the sexual assault . ."

Religion And The Public Defender, Sadiq Reza
Religion And The Public Defender, Sadiq Reza
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This essay argues that the public defender should not undertake, or fail to undertake, any action to the legal detriment of a client on the basis of a conflict the attorney perceives between religious and professional responsibility, except for imminent death or serious bodily harm to another. Having accepted the responsibility of representing indigent criminal defendants, the public defender is duty-bound to not compromise that responsibility for competing religious obligations. This argument rests on four premises: (1) the public defender occupies a unique position in our legal system, and options available to private interest lawyers or other clients should not …

Damned To The Inferno? A New Vision Of Lawyers At The Dawning Of The Millennium, Robert J. Cosgrove
Damned To The Inferno? A New Vision Of Lawyers At The Dawning Of The Millennium, Robert J. Cosgrove
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This Article seeks to explain the negative perception the legal profession and lawyers have in the eyes of the American public. Disregarding common answers such as the disproportionate amount of influence lawyers have or high salaries and extravagant lifestyles, this Article argues that a cultural shift has led many Americans to see the law as an arbitrary device. Consequently, this belief is reinforced by lawyers and and perpetuated by law schools, leading to the negative perception of the legal profession. In the process, the Article addresses five main issues: the definition and purpose of the law, the republican theory of …

Disciplinary Restrictions On Multidisciplinary Practice: Their Derivation, Their Development, And Some Implications For The Core Values Debate The Future Of The Profession: A Symposium On Multidisciplinary Practice, Bruce A. Green
Faculty Scholarship
Many of the legal profession's disciplinary rules are of venerable lineage. For example, the provisions of contemporary disciplinary codes concerning conflicts of interest derive from the 1908 Canons of Professional Ethics (Canons), which, in turn, can be traced back to late nineteenth century state ethics codes, to mid-nineteenth-century lectures and writings, 3 and to earlier common-law agency principles. Although lawyers to- day disagree about what the precise contours of the conflict rules should be, these rules embody basic principles of loyalty, competence and confidentiality that are fundamental, traditional, and universally supported by lawyers. These are defining principles for the practice …
