The Future Of Federal Sentencing Policy: Learning Lessons From Republican Judicial Appointees In The Guidelines Era, David M. Zlotnick Jan 2008

The Future Of Federal Sentencing Policy: Learning Lessons From Republican Judicial Appointees In The Guidelines Era, David M. Zlotnick

University of Colorado Law Review

In the two years since the landmark Booker decision, federal sentencing policy has been in a state of suspended animation. This Article urges federal sentencing reform advocates to look to an unlikely source for realistic goals and ideological support-the experiences of Republican judicial appointees in the Guidelines Era. Its findings are based upon a long-term research project into cases in which Republican appointees stated their disagreement with the sentences required by law from the bench. The Article discusses the primary product of my research, forty comprehensive case profiles and their policy implications. Specifically, the Article demonstrates how the lessons of …


Interstate Instability: Why Colorado's Alien Smuggling Statute Is Preempted By Federal Immigration Laws, Ben Meade Jan 2008

Interstate Instability: Why Colorado's Alien Smuggling Statute Is Preempted By Federal Immigration Laws, Ben Meade

University of Colorado Law Review

For more than a century, the federal government has outlawed the smuggling of undocumented aliens. Over that federal statute's long legislative evolution, Congress has developed an increasingly comprehensive scheme for punishing alien smugglers in proportion to their crimes. More recently, the federal government has amended and enforced the alien smuggling statute in ways designed to advance the government's war on domestic terrorism. However, despite the existence of this major federal statute, in 2006 Colorado enacted its own independent ban on alien smuggling. This Comment argues that the federal alien smuggling statute preempts the Colorado alien smuggling statute, both because Congress …


Opening The Door: Crowe V. Tull And The Application Of The Colorado Consumer Protection Act To Attorneys, Daniela Ronchetti Jan 2008

Opening The Door: Crowe V. Tull And The Application Of The Colorado Consumer Protection Act To Attorneys, Daniela Ronchetti

University of Colorado Law Review

In Crowe v. Tull, the Colorado Supreme Court held that the Colorado Consumer Protection Act ("CCPA") applies to attorneys. Putting consumers of legal services on par with consumers in other industries, the decision opened a new avenue of recovery in attorney-client disputes. This Note explores the ramifications of Crowe for attorneys and their clients. Specifically, the Note analyzes the elements of a CCPA claim and their interpretation by the courts and argues that in most cases, a client will not be able to successfully pursue a CCPA claim against his or her attorney. Particularly, a client will have difficulty proving …


Accounting For Federalism In State Courts: Exclusion Of Evidence Obtained Lawfully By Federal Agents, Robert M. Bloom, Hilary Massey Jan 2008

Accounting For Federalism In State Courts: Exclusion Of Evidence Obtained Lawfully By Federal Agents, Robert M. Bloom, Hilary Massey

University of Colorado Law Review

After the terrorist attacks on September 11th, Congress greatly enhanced federal law enforcement powers through enactment of the U.S.A. Patriot Act. The Supreme Court has provided more leeway to federal officers in the past few decades by limiting the scope of the exclusionary rule, for example. At the same time, many states have interpreted their constitutions to provide greater individual protections to their citizens than provided by the federal constitution. This phenomenon has sometimes created a wide disparity between the investigatory techniques available to federal versus state law enforcement officers. As a result, state courts sometimes must decide whether to …


Reverse 404(B) Evidence: Exploring Standards When Defendants Want To Introduce Other Bad Acts Of Third Parties, Jessica Broderick Jan 2008

Reverse 404(B) Evidence: Exploring Standards When Defendants Want To Introduce Other Bad Acts Of Third Parties, Jessica Broderick

University of Colorado Law Review

Reverse 404(b) evidence is the name courts have given to a less common use of Federal Rule of Evidence 404(b), wherein a defendant attempts to introduce the "other bad acts" of a third party, usually to prove that this third party committed the crime of which the defendant is accused or that the third party coerced the defendant into committing the crime. This Comment first reviews the standard use of FRE 404(b): when prosecutors seek to introduce other bad acts of the defendant. Then it explores how federal courts have addressed reverse 404(b) evidence. Currently there is no consensus among …


An Empirical Investigation Of Judicial Decisionmaking, Statutory Interpretation, And The Chevron Doctrine In Environmental Law, Jason J. Czarnezki Jan 2008

An Empirical Investigation Of Judicial Decisionmaking, Statutory Interpretation, And The Chevron Doctrine In Environmental Law, Jason J. Czarnezki

University of Colorado Law Review

How do courts evaluate decisions of statutory interpretation made by government agencies that deal in environmental law? While research on judicial decisionmaking in environmental law has primarily focused on the D.C. Circuit, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the influence of ideology, only recently have legal scholars begun to consider the role of legal factors in judicial decisionmaking in environmental law. With special attention paid to how courts implement the Chevron doctrine, this Article empirically and doctrinally analyzes environmental law cases decided in the United States Courts of Appeals over a threeyear period (2003-05) to investigate what factors, including ideological, legal, …


Climate Change, Regulatory Fragmentation, And Water Triage, Robin Kundis Craig Jan 2008

Climate Change, Regulatory Fragmentation, And Water Triage, Robin Kundis Craig

University of Colorado Law Review

Viewed from a watershed perspective, we are unconsciously sacrificing many marine ecosystems because upstream fresh water is a regulatorily fragmented resource. That is, water is subject to multiple assertions of regulatory authority and to multiple types of use-right claims that those authorities regulate. As freshwater supplies become increasingly unequal to the task of meeting the multiple demands for both consumptive and in situ use, and as consumptive and in situ uses of water come increasingly into irreconcilable conflict, the various regulatory schemes governing water use have also increasingly come into legal conflict. These courtroom battles have revealed many tensions, overlaps, …


The Fight To Save Red Lady: Does The 1872 Mining Law Impliedly Preclude Review Of Patent Protest Determinations, Michelle Albert Jan 2008

The Fight To Save Red Lady: Does The 1872 Mining Law Impliedly Preclude Review Of Patent Protest Determinations, Michelle Albert

University of Colorado Law Review

For over thirty years, residents and the local government of Crested Butte, Colorado have been fighting to keep a molybdenum mine out of their backyard. In 2004, the High Country Citizens Alliance, the town of Crested Butte, and the Board of County Commissioners filed an administrative protest challenging several applications to patent mineral land on nearby Mt. Emmons. The Bureau of Land Management denied their protest and issued nine mineral patents. The issuance of these patents increased the likelihood of a molybdenum mine on Mt. Emmons. The unsuccessful protestors appealed the BLM's decision in federal district court. In High Country …
