Projection Crystallography, Alan Pomplun
Projection Crystallography, Alan Pomplun
Articles
The birefringent properties of many crystalline substances can create vivid collages when combined with polarized illumination. High magnification photographs of these patterns can be produced simply without the use of a microscope or other expensive equipment. The technique involves projecting an enlarged crystal pattern with a condenser enlarger onto 35mm film.
Civil Rule 52(A): Rationing And Rationalizing The Resources Of Appellate Review, Edward H. Cooper
Civil Rule 52(A): Rationing And Rationalizing The Resources Of Appellate Review, Edward H. Cooper
Articles
My text is a single and rather simple sentence from Rule 52(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure: Findings of fact, whether based on oral or documentary evidence, shall not be set aside unless clearly erroneous, and due regard shall be given to the opportunity of the trial court to judge of the credibility of the witnesses. My theme is equally simple.. Rule 52(a) serves a vital institutional role in allocating the responsibility and the power of decision between district courts and the courts of appeals. The "dearly erroneous" standard of appellate review established by the Rule is a …
Becket At The Bar--The Conflicting Obligations Of The Solicitor General, Eric Schnapper
Becket At The Bar--The Conflicting Obligations Of The Solicitor General, Eric Schnapper
Articles
This Article suggests that the Solicitor General has five quite distinct responsibilities: to provide the Supreme Court with accurate and balanced information, to help to shape the Court's docket, to assure that the government's presentations maintain a high level of professionalism, to frame government positions which strike an appropriate balance between justice and advocacy, and to identify the interests and policies of the government client whom he represents. These responsibilities at times place the Solicitor General under conflicting obligations, not merely conflicts between his or her duties to the Court and to the administration, but conflicts in the Solicitor General's …
The Tax Treatment Of Qualified Plans: A Classic Defense Of The Status Quo, Edward A. Zelinsky
The Tax Treatment Of Qualified Plans: A Classic Defense Of The Status Quo, Edward A. Zelinsky
Articles
The current tax treatment of qualified pension and profit sharing plans has been criticized by commentators as an unfair and expensive tax expenditure. In this Article, Professor Zelinsky challenges this characterization and defends the current treatment of qualified plans on the ground that it is at least as attractive as its alternatives and superior to many of them. After evaluating the current treatment and the alternatives under the criteria of measurability, administrability, liquidity, equity, and simplicity, Professor Zelinsky concludes that the present treatment of qualified plans can be viewed as an acceptable part of a normative income tax.

Law And Enchantment: The Place Of Belief, Joseph Vining
Law And Enchantment: The Place Of Belief, Joseph Vining
Articles
The question I wish to raise is whether one must believe what one says when one makes a statement of law. The language of belief that we know, and from which moral discourse and the moral never stray far: do judges, lawyers, law participate in it? Any such question is but an aspect of a larger question, indeed issue, of what we may call the objectivity of legal language. It is raised perhaps most acutely by the broad claims now being made for artificial intelligence and in particular for the computer programming of legal advice (as a species of what …
'Comparative Reprehensibility' And The Fourth Amendment Exclusionary Rule, Yale Kamisar
'Comparative Reprehensibility' And The Fourth Amendment Exclusionary Rule, Yale Kamisar
Articles
It is not . . . easy to see what the shock-the-conscience test adds, or should be allowed to add, to the deterrent function of exclusionary rules. Where no deterrence of unconstitutional police behavior is possible, a decision to exclude probative evidence with the result that a criminal goes free to prey upon the public should shock the judicial conscience even more than admitting the evidence. So spoke Judge Robert H. Bork, concurring in a ruling that the fourth amendment exclusionary rule does not apply to foreign searches conducted exclusively by foreign officials. A short time thereafter, when an interviewer …

The American Advantage: The Value Of Inefficient Litigation, Samuel R. Gross
The American Advantage: The Value Of Inefficient Litigation, Samuel R. Gross
Articles
In a recent article, The German Advantage in Civil Procedure,1 Professor John Langbein claims that the German system of civil litigation is superior to the American; in an earlier article he makes a parallel claim about German criminal procedure.2 Roughly, Professor Langbein argues that by comparison to the German process, American litigation is overly complex, expensive, slow, and unpredictable - in short, inefficient.3 Professor Langbein is not the first and will not be the last to criticize American legal institutions in these terms, but he expresses this criticism particularly well: he is concise and concrete, he describes American practice by …

The Constitution In The Supreme Court: Civil Rights And Liberties, 1930-1941, David P. Currie
The Constitution In The Supreme Court: Civil Rights And Liberties, 1930-1941, David P. Currie
Articles
This is the latest in Professor Currie's continuing series on the historical development of constitutional doctrine. In this article Professor Currie surveys the major decisions of the Supreme Court between 1930 and 1941 in the area of criminal procedure, civil rights and civil liberties. In the area of criminal procedure, Professor Currie concludes that in deciding what procedures were required or forbidden by due process, historical inquiry was displaced by a fundamental-rights test. In the area of civil liberties, Professor Currie concludes that the Court made modest progress. Finally, Professor Currie concludes that the Court's most important civil liberties work …

Allocating Antitrust Decisionmaking Tasks, Frank H. Easterbrook
Allocating Antitrust Decisionmaking Tasks, Frank H. Easterbrook
Articles
Antitrust law has become a branch of industrial organization, itself a branch of economics. Today judges and the antitrust enforcement agencies search at every turn for economic arguments pro and con. This is a staple in academic thought as well-and it makes little difference what stripe. Those who could be called hawks employ economic argument, just as do those who see less scope for antitrust do. Most of the papers delivered at this symposium, like the merger guidelines issued by the National Association Attorneys General (NAAG),' are grounded in economic rather than political theories. More economics lies ahead. But what …
