Living Dangerously: A Defense Of Mortal Peril, Richard A. Epstein
Living Dangerously: A Defense Of Mortal Peril, Richard A. Epstein
Articles
As one of the most controversial writers of our time, just the name Richard Epstein draws immediate attention from all sectors of academia. But if the hallmark of great ideas is the criticism they engender, Professor Epstein's words and thoughts are powerful indeed. In Mortal Peril, Professor Epstein outlined a fundamental shift in thinking that he claimed needed to occur before any discussion of health care could take place. The final consensus of the validity of Professor Epstein's views may still be a matter for history to judge, but in many ways, he has already won; with the strength of …

Judicial Reform In Brazil, Keith S. Rosenn
Judicial Reform In Brazil, Keith S. Rosenn
Articles
Judicial reform is currently a hotly debated topic in Brazil. The call for reform of the Brazilian judiciary, however, is anything but new. The Brazilian judiciary has been in a state of crisis since colonial days, and despite numerous attempts at reform, it remains in crisis. With the privatization of Brazil's state-owned enterprises, the growth of Mercosur, the urgent need to make Brazilian firms competitive in world markets, the emphasis upon attracting foreign investment, and the opening of Brazil's economy to foreign competition, Brazilian political leadership began to focus upon ways to reform Brazil's malfunctioning judicial system. Unfortunately, the proposed …

Women, Morality, And Sexual Orientation, Mary E. Becker
Women, Morality, And Sexual Orientation, Mary E. Becker
Articles
In this Article, Professor Becker argues that heterosexual relationships are more problematic for women than lesbian relationships, particularly when such relationships are viewed in terms of their tendency to objectify the "other." She discusses how current "moral" norms concerning the inferiority of homosexuality to heterosexuality enable men to use women in immoral and subordinating ways. She explores moral taboos against lesbian relationships and asserts that these taboos facilitate heterosexual male exploitation of women's sexuality by obscuring from some women the possibility that they might prefer more equitable relationships with women rather than with men. She argues for greater acceptance of …

Committed Partners And Inheritance: An Empirical Study, Mary Louise Fellows, Monica Kirkpatrick Johnson, Amy Chiericozzi, Ann Hale, Christopher Lee, Robin Preble, Michael Voran
Articles
There is widespread recognition that U.S. households have changed dramatically in the latter half of the twentieth century. 1 The changes include an increased number of blended families, 2 single-parent households, 3 and unmarried same-sex and opposite-sex committed couples, including some with children. 4 The transformation taking place in U.S. households implicates property law and vice versa. In recognition of the changing U.S. household and the symbiotic relationship between wealth transmission and family, we undertook an empirical study designed to assess public attitudes about the inclusion of surviving committed partners as heirs. This Article reports our findings.

Law Firms On The Big Board?: A Proposal For Nonlawyer Investment In Law Firms, Edward S. Adams, John H. Matheson
Law Firms On The Big Board?: A Proposal For Nonlawyer Investment In Law Firms, Edward S. Adams, John H. Matheson
Articles
Every state has a rule proscribing nonlawyer investment in law firms. This sixty-plus-year-old prohibition has created an inefficient legal services market. Firms cannot access capital markets, limiting their opportunities for expansion, curtailing investments in technology and training, and hindering competition. Furthermore, every jurisdiction except the District of Columbia prohibits lawyers from entering into a business association with nonlawyers as partners or directors if the business provides legal services. These prohibitions against nonlawyer investment and participation in law firms have long hindered the legal profession with no signs of change. This Article advocates that these prohibitions be lifted. It discusses the …
Employee Beware: The Irreparable Damage Of The Inevitable Disclosure Doctrine, John H. Matheson
Employee Beware: The Irreparable Damage Of The Inevitable Disclosure Doctrine, John H. Matheson
Articles
For most of us, employment is our most significant consumer activity. People shop for employment just as they shop for goods and services. Generally, the at-will employment doctrine gives workers the freedom to leave one company for another whenever they determine that the alternative employer is offering the worker (a “consumer” of employment opportunities) a more attractive employment package or opportunity. Workers compare wage rates, benefits, skills required, and restrictions in determining which job package to “purchase” with their labor. As a society we also recognize employment as a consumer activity. Consumer protection laws regulate workplace safety and health conditions, …
Third-Party Defenses To Mortgages, Ann Burkhart
Third-Party Defenses To Mortgages, Ann Burkhart
Articles
When the holder of a note and mortgage 1 asserts its rights, well-established law delineates what defenses are available to those who are liable for the debt. However, in some cases a person who is not liable for the debt-a "third party" to the loan transaction-may have a defense against the holder's action. Although the third party is not liable for the debt, it may have an interest in the mortgaged land or in the mortgage itself. Unfortunately, the law is not nearly as clear in this situation. The confusion arises in large part because the laws concerning notes and …

Brief Summary Of The 50th Session Of The United Nations Sub-Commission On Prevention Of Discrimination And Protection Of Minorities, David Weissbrodt, Mayra Gomez, Bret Thiele

The United Nations Sub-Commission on Prevention of Discrimination and Protection of Minorities (Sub-Commission) met in Geneva, Switzerland, from 3 to 28 August 1998 for its fiftieth session.'

Demystifying Federal Labor And Employment Law Preemption, Stephen F. Befort
Demystifying Federal Labor And Employment Law Preemption, Stephen F. Befort
Articles
Federal preemption is an increasingly important area of expertise for labor and employment lawyers. As the sheer volume of laws and cases governing the workplace continues to multiply, so does the need to accommodate the respective spheres of federal and state regulation. For both employee and employer representatives, an understanding of federal preemption law is crucial for navigating the current maze of multiple claims and forums.

Upstream Patents = Downstream Bottlenecks, Rebecca S. Eisenberg, Michael A. Heller
Upstream Patents = Downstream Bottlenecks, Rebecca S. Eisenberg, Michael A. Heller
Articles
Thirty years ago in Science, Garrett Hardin introduced the metaphor "tragedy of the commons" to help explain overpopulation, air pollution, and species extinction. People often overuse resources they own in common because they have no incentive to conserve. Today, Hardin's metaphor is central to debates in economics, law, and science and powerful justification for privatizing commons property. While the metaphor highlights the cost of overuse when governments allow too many people to use a scarce resource, it misses the possibility of underuse when governments give too many people rights to exclude others. Privatization can solve one tragedy, but cause another.
The Securities Litigation Uniform Standards Act Of 1998: The Sun Sets On California's Blue Sky Laws, David M. Lavine, Adam C. Pritchard
The Securities Litigation Uniform Standards Act Of 1998: The Sun Sets On California's Blue Sky Laws, David M. Lavine, Adam C. Pritchard
Articles
It is often said that California sets the pace for changes in America's tastes. Trends established in California often find their way into the heartland, having a profound effect on our nation's cultural scene. Nouvelle cuisine, the dialect of the Valley Girl and rollerblading all have their genesis on the West Coast. The most recent trend to emerge from California, instead of catching on in the rest of the country, has been stopped dead in its tracks by a legislative rebuke from Washington, D.C. California's latest, albeit short-lived, contribution to the nation was a migration of securities fraud class actions …
Canon, Anti-Canon, And Judicial Dissent, Richard Primus
Canon, Anti-Canon, And Judicial Dissent, Richard Primus
Articles
Several legal theorists have recently explored the idea that constitutional law has a canon, a set of greatly authoritative texts that above all others shape the nature and development of constitutional law. In a piece published earlier this year in the Harvard Law Review, Jack Balkin and Sanford Levinson enter that discussion and argue that the constitutional canon has heretofore laid too much emphasis on court cases in general and on opinions of the Supreme Court in particular. In the course of their argument, they cite an earlier study of constitutional law casebooks currently in use to show that …
Smokers' Compensation: Toward A Blueprint For Federal Regulation Of Cigarette Manufacturers, Jon D. Hanson, Kyle D. Logue, Michael S. Zamore
Smokers' Compensation: Toward A Blueprint For Federal Regulation Of Cigarette Manufacturers, Jon D. Hanson, Kyle D. Logue, Michael S. Zamore
Articles
Although nothing is certain in Washington, sweeping federal legislation in the cigarette area is more likely now than has ever been the case. Congress is currently considering several proposals for comprehensive federal regulation of the cigarette market, a market that has until now gone largely untouched by government intervention. Among those proposals, the one that has received the most attention, and the one that in fact motivated policy makers to look anew at the problems posed by cigarettes, is the proposed national tobacco resolution (the "Proposed Resolution"). The Proposed Resolution, which has been advanced by a coalition of state attorneys …
We Could Pass A Law...What Might Happen If Contingent Legal Fees Were Banned, Samuel R. Gross
We Could Pass A Law...What Might Happen If Contingent Legal Fees Were Banned, Samuel R. Gross
Articles
This is an exercise in fantasy. My task is to imagine what would happen if we simply abolished the institution of the contingent fee by statute. I cannot justify that task on grounds of urgency. Contingent fees are not about to be abolished, and they probably.are not going to be seriously restricted. My hope is that the exercise will be amusing in itself, and that in the process we might learn something about contingent fees as we now use them.
Physician-Assisted Suicide: The Problems Presented By The Compelling, Heartwrenching Case, Yale Kamisar
Physician-Assisted Suicide: The Problems Presented By The Compelling, Heartwrenching Case, Yale Kamisar
Articles
Now that the U.S. Supreme Court has upheld New York and Washington state laws prohibiting the aiding of another to commit suicide,2 the spotlight will shift to the state courts, the state legislatures and state referenda. And once again proponents of physician-assisted suicide (PAS) will point to a heartwrenching case, perhaps the relatively rare case where a dying person is experiencing unavoidable pain (i.e., pain that not even the most skilled palliative care experts are able to mitigate), and ask: What would you want done to you if you were in this person's shoes?

The Role Of Clinical Programs In Legal Education, Suellyn Scarnecchia
Articles
In clinic, students get a glance at the lawyer they will be someday. They gain confidence that, indeed, they will be a "good" lawyer. They understand the context in which their classroom learning will be applied. In short, they are able to integrate their law school experience.
