Machiavelli And The Bar: Ethical Limitations On Lying In Negotiation, James J. White Jan 1980

Machiavelli And The Bar: Ethical Limitations On Lying In Negotiation, James J. White

Articles

Upon the enactment of the Model Rules of Professional Conduct, published ethical norms will for the first time give explicit consideration to the lawyer's behavior in the process of negotiation. Rules 4.1, 4.2, and 4.3 deal with negotiation. Although the Canons, the interpretations of the Canons, and the Disciplinary Rules and Ethical Considerations gave tangential consideration to negotiating, 1 none of the Disciplinary Rules or Ethical Considerations explicitly considered negotiation apart from the process of litigation or counseling. The mere recognition of negotiation as a separate process worthy of unique rules is a large step. The purpose of this paper …

Rewriting Roe V. Wade, Donald H. Regan Aug 1979

Rewriting Roe V. Wade, Donald H. Regan

Articles

Roe v. Wade is one of the most controversial cases the Supreme Court has decided. The result in the case - the establishment of a constitutional right to abortion - was controversial enough. Beyond that, even people who approve of the result have been dissatisfied with the Court's opinion. Others before me have attempted to explain how a better opinion could have been written. It seems to me, however, that the most promising argument in support of the result of Roe has not yet been made. This essay contains my suggestions for "rewriting" Roe v. Wade

In Pursuit Of Excellence -- A History Of The University Of Minnesota Law School, Part Vi: The Auerbach Years -- A Time Of Building, Controversy And Frustration, Robert Stein

Articles

When William B. Lockhart resigned from the deanship of the University of Minnesota Law School in June 1972, a productive sixteen-year tenure came to an end. Guided in the early years by the recommendations of the 1955 Law School Self-Survey, Lockhart and his faculty achieved significant success in improving the school's relationship with the bar, in revitalizing the educational program, in improving the quality of the student body, and in maintaining the quality of the faculty. In the later years of his tenure, the law school successfully responded, under Lockhart's leadership, to a variety of challenges presented in the turbulence …

When Everett Fraser retired as Dean of the University of Minnesota Law School in June of 1948, he left to his successor a school ripe for change. The length and the strength of DeanFraser's administration,togetherwith the dramaticeffects of World WarII on the size and atmosphereof the school, had stifled the articulation andresolutionofseveralproblems.In theyearsfollowingFraser's retirement and the War's conclusion, issues long muted began to surface and developments long postponed began to require atten- tion. Through his seven-year administration,the new dean, May- nard E. Pirsig,preserved the school's traditionof excellence in its faculty and curriculum, while the groundwork was laid for the diffi- …


Patterns Of Drinking Among The Deaf, Morton Isaacs, Gerard Buckley, Donna Martin Jan 1979

Patterns Of Drinking Among The Deaf, Morton Isaacs, Gerard Buckley, Donna Martin

Articles

Thirty-nine White deaf persons functioning normally within the general hearing community were surveyed on a variety of factors concerning their use of alcohol, and compared to the data from two comparable hearing samples reported previously in the literature. No significant differences were found between the deaf and heharing samples on patterns of drinking or other parameters of alcohol use. Heavier alcohol use among the deaf correlated significantly with reported frequency of driving after having drunk too much, age of having had first drink, ever having been drunk, feeling guilt over drinking too much, and others criticizing the respondent for drinking …

Administrators And Teachers—An Uneasy But Vital Relationship, Theodore J. St. Antoine Jan 1979

Administrators And Teachers—An Uneasy But Vital Relationship, Theodore J. St. Antoine

Articles

If William Faulkner could people a whole universe with the denizens of one atypical county in deepest Mississippi, I should be able to draw some general observations about the administration of teaching in American universities from my seven years' experience as dean of the Michigan Law School. But I lay no claim to Mr. Faulkner's powers of universalization, and so I shall begin with a few caveats about the peculiarities of legal education, about the ways we differ from undergraduate and graduate schools and even from other professional schools. My opinions can then be discounted accordingly.


On The Relevance Of Philosophy To Law: Reflections On Ackerman's Private Property And The Constitution, Philip E. Soper Jan 1979

On The Relevance Of Philosophy To Law: Reflections On Ackerman's Private Property And The Constitution, Philip E. Soper

Articles

To turn to moral philosophy these days for help in trying to decide "what to do" is a bit like turning to recipe books for help in a famine. One soon discovers that most philosophers avoid ultimate questions about actual choices in actual cases, preferring to concentrate instead on a preliminary problem: how to go about thinking about what to do. One also discovers that philosophers who have written about this preliminary problem of the structure of moral inquiry are neatly divided, as logically they must be, into precisely two camps: those who do and those who do not think …

Torture And Plea Bargaining, John H. Langbein Jan 1978

Torture And Plea Bargaining, John H. Langbein

Articles

In this essay I shall address the modem American system of plea bargaining from a perspective that must appear bizarre, although I hope to persuade you that it is illuminating. I am going to contrast plea bargaining with the medieval European law of torture. My thesis is that there are remarkable parallels in origin, in function, and even in specific points of doctrine, between the law of torture and the law of plea bargaining. I shall suggest that these parallels expose some important truths about how criminal justice systems respond when their trial procedures fall into deep disorder.

Reference Of Juvenile Offenders For Adult Prosecution: The Legislative Alternative To Asking Unanswerable Questions, Barry C. Feld

Articles

DRAWING ON SOCIAL SCIENCE RESEARCH AND EMPIRICAL EVALUATIONS OF JUDICIAL WAIVER ADMINISTRATION IN MINNESOTA AND ELSEWHERE, IT IS ARGUED THAT JUDICIAL WAIVER STATUTES REQUIRE JUVENILE COURTS TO MAKE INDIVIDUALIZED DETERMINATIONS AS TO A YOUTH'S AMENABILITY TO TREATMENT AND THE DANGER TO SOCIETY POSED BY THE YOUTH'S RETENTION WITHIN THE JUVENILE SYSTEM THAT, USING CURRENT METHODS OF CLINICAL PREDICTION, SIMPLY CANNOT BE MADE WITH AN ACCEPTABLE DEGREE OF ACCURACY. HOWEVER, IT IS BELIEVED THAT ACTUARIAL METHODS BASED ON PRESENT OFFENSE AND PAST RECORD CAN BE USED TO IDENTIFY IN ROUGH TERMS THOSE JUVENILES LIKELY TO RECIDIVATE AND, ACCORDINGLY, POSE A THREAT …

The Federal Rules Of Evidence: A Model For Improved Evidentiary Decisionmaking In Washington, Robert H. Aronson Jan 1978

The Federal Rules Of Evidence: A Model For Improved Evidentiary Decisionmaking In Washington, Robert H. Aronson

Articles

This article discusses the underlying reasons for establishing rules of evidence, defines two unavoidable conflicts encountered in attempting to effectuate the purposes for adopting such rules, suggests that the Federal Rules of Evidence help resolve these conflicts by adhering to several clearly enunciated rationales, and, finally, indicates how the Rules recognize and accommodate important new scientific and social insights on the admissibility of evidence.
