With Access And Justice For All, Sagit Mor

Cardozo Law Review

The article explores the intersection of the "right to access" and "access to justice," particularly for persons with disabilities, emphasizing how these concepts interact across various legal and social dimensions. It argues that the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) provides a comprehensive framework for addressing these issues, focusing on legal capacity, physical accessibility, and effective participation in legal proceedings.

Life After Daca: Immigration Reform In The Age Of Trump, Hasan Shafiqullah, Martin Batalla, Michael Wildes, Anthony Enriquez, Javeria Ahmed

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The symposium examines the revocation of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program by the Trump administration, its legal challenges, and the ongoing debate over immigration reform. It highlights the impact on approximately 900,000 DACA recipients and the lawsuits arguing the revocation was arbitrary, capricious, and motivated by racial discrimination. The analysis emphasizes the need for comprehensive immigration reform, advocating for a "clean" Dream Act to provide a pathway to citizenship without compromising the rights of other immigrants or increasing enforcement measures. The discussion also underscores the historical and cultural significance of immigration in the U.S., urging collective action …

Alternatives To Immigration Detention, Fatma E. Marouf

Cardozo Law Review

The United States places over 440,000 people each year in immigration detention, far more than any other country in the world. This Article argues that there are compelling humanitarian and financial reasons to utilize more alternatives to detention. It examines the strengths and limitations of existing alternatives, including the need to develop more community-based case management programs and to rely less on electronic monitoring. The Article then sets forth several legal arguments under the Constitution, Rehabilitation Act, and international human rights law for requiring greater consideration of alternatives to detention.

Where Sovereign Immunity Ends And Liability Begins: A Functional Restructuring Of The United States Military Tort Compensation Scheme, Jordon Parker

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The note critiques the current system of tort claims against the United States, particularly in cases involving the military, arguing that it is overly complex and fails to provide adequate compensation for injured individuals. It proposes replacing the existing tort system with a no-fault compensation scheme, similar to New Zealand’s Accident Compensation Act 2001, to better address the needs of victims.

The Second Circuit And Social Justice, Matthew Diller, Alexander A. Reinert

Articles

The Second Circuit is renowned for its landmark rulings in fields such as white collar crime and securities law — bread and butter issues growing out of Wall Street’s preeminence in the financial landscape of the nation. At the same time, the Second Circuit has a long tradition of breaking new ground on issues of social justice. Unlike some circuit courts which have reputations in the area of social justice built around one or two fields, such as the Fifth Circuit’s pioneering role in civil rights litigation or the Ninth Circuit’s focus on immigration, there is no one area of …

Human Capital Discrimination, Law Firm Inequality, And The Limits Of Title Vii, Kevin Woodson

Cardozo Law Review

This Article advances the legal scholarship on workplace inequality through use of evidence derived from interviews of a sample of black attorneys who have worked in large, predominantly white law firms. It does so by calling attention to the manner in which these firms operate as sites of human capital discrimination-patterns of mistreatment that deprive many black associates of access to the substantive work opportunities crucial to their professional development and career advancement. This Article identifies the specific arrangements and practices within these firms that facilitate human capital discrimination and describes the varied, often subtle harms and burdens that they …

Police Use Unconscious Driver And Passenger As Anti-Drug Advertisement, Leigh Solomon

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal (AELJ) Blog

On Thursday, September 8th, 2016 Ohio police officers posted photographs of a couple and their son on Facebook. The pictures display a woman and man, unconscious in the front seats of their vehicle, and a four-year-old child awake in the back seat. The city police took these pictures after conducting a traffic stop on September 7th; they had noticed the couple’s car weaving between traffic lanes, and upon stopping the car, noticed “the man’s head ‘bobbing back and forth his speech was almost unintelligible.’” James Acord, the driver of the vehicle, informed officers that he was taking the passed out …
