“Some Kind Of Lawyer”: Two Journeys From Classroom To Courtroom And Beyond, Terry Birdwhistell

Law Faculty Scholarly Articles

In January 1996 a panel of the American Bar Association released a report concluding that "discrimination continues to permeate the structures, practices and attitudes of the legal profession." It has been a long journey in women's efforts to obtain equity in both law schools and in the legal profession generally. This article is composed of two interviews with University of Kentucky College of Law graduates: Norma Boster Adams (’52) and Annette McGee Cunningham (’80). Twenty-eight years separated Norma Adams and Annette Cunningham at the College of Law. They faced different obstacles and chose varied paths to success. While each can …

Good Kids, Bad Kids: A Revelation About The Due Process Rights Of Children, Cecelia M. Espenoza

UC Law Constitutional Quarterly

In the case of Reno v. Flores, the United States Supreme Court held that the indefinite detention of unaccompanied, immigrant children without a mandatory hearing before an immigration judge did not violate the children's substantive or procedural due process rights. To fully examine the procedural and substantive due process rights of these children, the Article engages in an analysis of children's due process rights in general, and then places the Reno v. Flores decision in context.

Timeliness In The Unemployment Compensation Appeals Process: The Need For Increased Federal Oversight, Sharon M. Dietrich, Cynthia L. Rice

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

Anecdotal evidence suggests that during the recession of 1989-1992, unemployment insurance claimants suffered unprecedented delays in the receipt of their benefits. Advocates reported that claimants who were initially denied benefits suffered delays of months, and even years, before the state administrative appeals process resolved their claims. Although federal law establishes timeliness standards for processing appeals, many states did not meet those standards. In this Article, the Authors discuss and analyze the results of a nationwide review of state compliance with federal timeliness standards. They then assess the state and federal responses to the increased number of unemployment insurance claims and …

Attorney Malpractice Liability To Non-Clients In Washington: Is The New Modified Multi-Factor Balancing Test An Improvement?, Sheryl L.R. Miller

Washington Law Review

Most jurisdictions recognize a cause of action for legal malpractice against a non-client only where the attorney-client relationship is formed to benefit a third-party nonclient. This rule generally operates to preclude an attorney's potential liability to a client's adversary. Washington departed from the majority in 1992 in Bohn v. Cody, where the Washington Supreme Court found that an attorney did owe a duty to his client's adversary. Two years later, in Trask v. Butler, the supreme court modified Bohn's test for determining attorney malpractice liability to third parties to conform Washington's law with the majority of jurisdictions. …

A Paradigm For Determining The Role Of Counsel For Children, Martin Guggenheim

Faculty Articles

The thesis of this Article is that we have skipped an important step, in that there is much work that still needs to be done to resolve the proper mode of analysis. This Article explores the relevant considerations and offers an analytic framework or paradigm for determining the role of counsel for "young children.", For these purposes, the term "young children" will be defined to mean children so young that they cannot articulate their preferences to counsel (e.g., newborns to children ages two or three) and children who, though old enough to communicate, would be considered to be "impaired," within …

Violent Youth Gangs In Portland: A Study Of The City's Response, Debra Lynn Lindberg

Dissertations and Theses

Youth gangs infiltrated Portland's illegal drug trade in the early 1980s. By the mid-1980s, entire neighborhoods in some parts of the city were affected. Residents expressed fear that their children would be drawn into gangs. Violence between rival gangs was frightening. Citizens, law enforcement and social services personnel organized to defend themselves and adjust programs to manage the problem. City officials denied a problem existed until a gang style shooting death forced recognition. The shooting death was catalytic in that it launched an effort to respond with a continuum of services. The House of Umoja was one of the services. …

Challenges In Judging: Some Insights From The Writings Of Moses, Gordon J. Beggs

Law Faculty Articles and Essays

I would like to use the writings of Moses as a lens to examine some challenges in judging. Moses authored the first five books of the Old Testament known as the Pentateuch or books of the law--Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. He is probably best known for leading the Hebrew people out of bondage in Egypt and for receiving the Ten Commandments. As our discussion today will reveal, he may also be credited with authoring some significant principles with respect to the judicial function.
