The Damaging Impact Of The Eastman Kodak Precedent Upon Product Competition: Antitrust Law In Need Of Correction, Daniel J. Gifford Jan 1994

The Damaging Impact Of The Eastman Kodak Precedent Upon Product Competition: Antitrust Law In Need Of Correction, Daniel J. Gifford

Articles

In the dynamic markets of the present day, competition is the driving force behind the widespread and pervasive development of new products and new product capabilities. Innovative activity, which is especially manifest in the high-technology sectors, contributes significantly to national economic well-being. 1 Yet the courts, the bar, and most legal scholars have given inadequate attention to the critical role that antitrust rules can play in encouraging or stifling innovative activity. 2 Rather, a good deal of the traditional antitrust literature has focused narrowly upon price and output in relatively static market settings, and the newer strategic behavior branch of …


Conferring On The Maccrate Report: A Clinical Gaze, Beverly Balos Jan 1994

Conferring On The Maccrate Report: A Clinical Gaze, Beverly Balos

Articles

The MacCrate Report' provides a strong statement about the need for legal education to take seriously its responsibility for training students in the values of the profession and skills of legal practice. It is this central focus of the Report that makes it of interest to those of us who recognize the particular contribution clinical education makes to legal training. The Task Force, appointed and supported by the American Bar Association's influential Section on Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar, affirmed in its Report the importance of clinical education and the vital role it can play in the training …

Unfunded Mandates, Hidden Taxation, And The Tenth Amendment: On Public Choice, Public Interest, And Public Services, Edward A. Zelinsky Nov 1993

Unfunded Mandates, Hidden Taxation, And The Tenth Amendment: On Public Choice, Public Interest, And Public Services, Edward A. Zelinsky

Articles

Few contemporary issues concern state and local policymakers as intensely as unfunded mandates. Mayors, county executives, city councilmen, and the professional associations representing them routinely argue that the federal and state governments have, in recent years, imposed at an accelerating rate expensive requirements on municipalities without granting corresponding funds for compliance, thereby irresponsibly straining the fiscal capacity of municipalities, hampering their ability to provide essential services, and improperly infringing upon the scope of local control. The complaints of municipal policymakers have provoked a variety of proposals for restraining unfunded mandates: obligatory disclosure of the projected costs of proposed mandates, requirements …


Three Lessons From Law And Literature, Richard H. Weisberg Nov 1993

Three Lessons From Law And Literature, Richard H. Weisberg

Articles

The article explores the intersection of law and literature, emphasizing the narrative nature of legal discourse and the importance of "considerate communication" in legal practice. It critiques the dominance of economic analysis in law and advocates for a more nuanced understanding of language and ethics in legal education and practice. The author uses literary works, such as Herman Melville's Billy Budd Sailor, and historical examples, like the Vichy regime in France, to illustrate the ethical and practical implications of how legal language is used.

Nonrefundable Retainers Revisited, Lester Brickman, Lawrence A. Cunningham Nov 1993

Nonrefundable Retainers Revisited, Lester Brickman, Lawrence A. Cunningham

Articles

Amidst widespread public attention to fee abuses, a court recently held for the first time that nonrefundable retainers violate professional ethics. The court in In re Cooperman essentially adopted the argument of Professors Brickman and Cunningham that nonrefundable retainers are against public policy because they impair a client's right to discharge his attorney at any time without penalty. Because declaring such agreements unethical is tantamount, in the eyes of the practicing bar, to declaring them void, In re Cooperman has sparked a national outcry from those who profit from enforcing nonrefundable retainers. In this Article, Professors Brickman and Cunningham analyze …

Modern Corporate Theory: Public Utility Or Private Part? A Comment On Professor Wolfe's Paper, Charles M. Yablon Oct 1993

Modern Corporate Theory: Public Utility Or Private Part? A Comment On Professor Wolfe's Paper, Charles M. Yablon

Articles

The article critiques the current state of corporate law theory, particularly the "nexus of contracts" model, for being overly simplistic and failing to provide a realistic or normatively satisfying account of corporate behavior. It argues that while critiques of this model exist, there is no substantial alternative theory, and the field remains mired in incremental debates that lack depth or practical relevance. The author suggests that corporate law scholarship should adopt a more practical, lawyerly approach, focusing on policy arguments and real-world implications rather than theoretical abstractions.

The Tension Between Rules And Discretion In Family Law: A Report And Reflection, Carl E. Schneider Jun 1993

The Tension Between Rules And Discretion In Family Law: A Report And Reflection, Carl E. Schneider

Articles

The history of law is many things. But one of them is the story of an unremitting struggle between rules and discretion. The tension between these two approaches to legal problems continues to pervade and perplex the law today. Perhaps nowhere is that tension more pronounced and more troubling than in family law. It is probably impossible to practice family law without wrestling with the imponderable choice between rules and discretion. Consider, for example, how many areas of family law are now being fought over in-just those terms. For decades we have lived with an abundantly discretionary way of resolving …


Fidelity In Translation, Lawrence Lessig May 1993

Fidelity In Translation, Lawrence Lessig

Articles

Readings of the Constitution have changed. Sometimes they have changed because the constitutional text has changed. But more often they have changed while the text has remained the same. Can it be that these changed readings-changes that track no change in constitutional text-can nonetheless be readings of fidelity, faithful to the Constitution's original meaning? On some readings of originalism, the answer must be no. But this essay argues that any complete account of interpretive fidelity must allow--indeed require--changes in constitutional readings even when there has been no change in the constitutional text. If meaning is a function of both text …


Liberal Philosophy's Troubled Relation To The Rule Of Law, David G. Carlson Apr 1993

Liberal Philosophy's Troubled Relation To The Rule Of Law, David G. Carlson

Articles

The article critiques Andrew Altman's defense of liberalism against critical legal studies (CLS), arguing that his account of the rule of law relies on unexamined presuppositions and fails to address the indeterminacy of legal meaning. Altman's metaphor of the rule of law as a checkerboard of zones of freedom is challenged for its definitional ambiguity and reliance on natural law, which undermines his critique of CLS. The analysis suggests that liberalism's inability to tolerate political intrusion into the rule of law exposes its dogmatic underpinnings, while deconstruction offers a more nuanced understanding of legal meaning and its ethical implications.
