At the end of their conversation, the lawyer asked James what option he would like her to pursue. His direction to counsel: "I think I'd like to live with you.

Some Realism About Legal Surrealism, Jeanne L. Schroeder Jan 1996

Some Realism About Legal Surrealism, Jeanne L. Schroeder

Articles

The article challenges the traditional understanding of possession in property law, arguing that the concept is increasingly inadequate due to its reliance on physical metaphors that fail to account for intangible assets and noncustodial interests. It advocates for a shift toward an abstract, Hegelian approach, emphasizing legal recognition and control over physical custody, particularly in the context of modern commercial transactions governed by the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC).


Death And Transfiguration: The Myth That The U.C.C. Killed "Property", Jeanne L. Schroeder Jan 1996

Death And Transfiguration: The Myth That The U.C.C. Killed "Property", Jeanne L. Schroeder

Articles

The article examines the evolution of property concepts in legal frameworks, particularly focusing on the Uniform Commercial Code (U.C.C.) and its treatment of title in sales transactions. It argues that while the U.C.C. attempted to shift from traditional notions of property as a unitary right to a more process-oriented approach, it did not fully abandon the underlying imagery of property as a tangible, identifiable object. The analysis critiques the common law's emphasis on title and explores the idea that property should be viewed as a legal relation among subjects rather than a fixed, physical entity. The article proposes a reinterpretation …

Taking Responsibility: Law's Relation To Justice And D'Amato's Deconstructive Practice, Arthur J. Jacobson Jan 1996

Taking Responsibility: Law's Relation To Justice And D'Amato's Deconstructive Practice, Arthur J. Jacobson

Articles

The Essay challenges the conventional view of law's relationship with justice by defending the indeterminacy thesis, arguing that law enhances the opportunity for taking responsibility, contrary to the usual perspective that sees justice as liability and law as defining liability. It critiques both D'Amato's belief in absolute justice and Derrida's assignment of determinacy to law, asserting that both underestimate law's capacity for justice. The Essay distinguishes between assigned and taken responsibility, advocating for a dynamic conception of law that aligns with substantive justice.


Text, Purpose, Capacity And Albertson's: A Response To Professor Geier, Edward A. Zelinsky Jan 1996

Text, Purpose, Capacity And Albertson's: A Response To Professor Geier, Edward A. Zelinsky

Articles

In a recent issue of the Florida Tar Review, Professor Deborah Geier added yet another chapter to the running commentary on the Albertson's litigation, using that case to demonstrate her theories of statutory purpose and to criticize, in particular, statutory textualism as she conceives of it. Professor Geier correctly identifies the underlying issues in Albertson's-the role of statutory purpose, the differing institutional capacities of the Congress and the courts, fidelity to statutory text-but resolves those issues in ways that prompt me to rebuttal.

While I commend Professor Geier for her effort to explicate many important questions about the Code and …
