Ready To Do The Difficult Work Ahead: The Legal Legacy Of Senator Harry Reid, Robert Lemus, Sarah Voehl Jan 2023

Ready To Do The Difficult Work Ahead: The Legal Legacy Of Senator Harry Reid, Robert Lemus, Sarah Voehl

Nevada Law Journal Forum

This White Paper examines the legal legacy of Harry Reid, who served Nevada in the Senate for thirty years and rose to the position of Majority Leader from 2007 to 2015. Senator Reid's work on land and water policy, climate change, immigration, gaming, and labor deeply affected Nevada and the United States as a whole. Through his positions of leadership, he secured funding for critical infrastructure projects, protected public lands, championed renewable energy, passed the Affordable Care Act, fought for immigration reform, and advocated for labor and gaming issues. This paper concludes that Senator Reid's legal legacy is a powerful …


Racial Pay Equity In “White” Collar Workplaces, Nantiya Ruan Jan 2023

Racial Pay Equity In “White” Collar Workplaces, Nantiya Ruan

Scholarly Works

Part I outlines the many ways that corporate employers fail in racial equity efforts and the barriers that have been put into place to keep BIPOC workers from succeeding. Drawing from industrial organizational psychology and sociology, I identify six distinct challenges that must be remedied or ameliorated in order for BIPOC to achieve pay equity in the corporate climate. Part II identifies and analyzes the decades of litigation and class action settlements that have tried and failed to address the persistent lack of BIPOC representation in the financial industry. I categorize these cases into three waves of litigation intended to …


Terror And Tenderness In Criminal Law, M. Eve Hanan Jan 2023

Terror And Tenderness In Criminal Law, M. Eve Hanan

Scholarly Works

The criminal legal system is at a crossroads. Calls for abolition are met with calls for modest adjustments or maintenance of the status quo. What frequently emerges from these polarities is a promise that police, prosecutors, judges, and other government actors will use their vast discretion to reduce the harmful excesses of criminal legal practices. Initiatives like “compassionate release,” “second look sentencing,” and the progressive prosecutor’s pledge to “charge with restraint” are examples of this promise to exercise discretion with care. In word choice and design, these discretionary reforms suggest tempering harsh criminal legal practices with leniency and individualized consideration—a …


Clients And Lawyers Unite: The Dysfunction Of Law Firm Teams Need A Cure, Joseph Regalia, David Wallace Jan 2023

Clients And Lawyers Unite: The Dysfunction Of Law Firm Teams Need A Cure, Joseph Regalia, David Wallace

Scholarly Works

Attorneys and clients have made clear: Dysfunctional law firm teams are not working. Gone are the days when lawyers had to quietly endure poor management, poor planning, and all-around poor work dynamics. Growing pressure on lawyers to get more efficient and produce more value—and a welcome focus on lawyer wellbeing—means that law firms can no longer ignore their responsibility to cultivate better workplaces.

It is no secret that law firm lawyers consistently rank as among the least happy workers in the world. And team dynamics—how attorneys and other legal professionals work together—may be a bigger piece of that puzzle than …

“Cops Or Coaches?” The Statutory Role Of Juvenile Probation Officers In A Transformative Age, Justin Iverson, David S. Tanenhaus Jan 2023

“Cops Or Coaches?” The Statutory Role Of Juvenile Probation Officers In A Transformative Age, Justin Iverson, David S. Tanenhaus

Scholarly Works

For more than a century, juvenile justice proponents have had a difficult time precisely defining the proper role of the juvenile probation officer while simultaneously stressing that the juvenile probation department is the “workhorse” of the entire system. Existing literature largely focuses on which aspects of policing and social work these officers should embody while ignoring the foundational moorings in state statutes. This Article offers both a historical account of the rise of the juvenile probation officer and a thorough analysis of each state’s laws regarding peace officer status, employing authority, the power of arrest, and the power to carry …
