Latcrit Praxis To Heal Fractured Communities, Laura M. Padilla Jan 1997

Latcrit Praxis To Heal Fractured Communities, Laura M. Padilla

Faculty Scholarship

This Essay explores LatCrit praxis as a healing tool. Before turning to LatCrit practice, let me offer a preliminary observation that many Latinos are troubled by leading divided lives in fractured communities. This is exacerbated by social conditioning which encourages Latinos, as well as other outsiders, to fragment their identities. One of the benefits of LatCrit theory is that it encourages the process of working toward wholeness. At a recent conference which looked at the courage of those who have decided to live lives divided no more, Parker Palmer, the plenary speaker, suggested that the spark which causes people to …

The Lesbian Wife: Same-Sex Marriage As An Expression Of Radical And Plural Democracy, Barbara Cox Jan 1997

The Lesbian Wife: Same-Sex Marriage As An Expression Of Radical And Plural Democracy, Barbara Cox

Faculty Scholarship

This Paper considers three ideas. The first is recognizing that a "reactionary and exclusionary democracy" exists in this country today. The second is considering the argument by some gay and lesbian activists that including gay men and lesbians under the rubric of state-sanctioned marriage will actually prevent a "radical and plural democracy" from occurring by removing the "outlaw" nature of the queer community and leading to the wholesale movement of gays and lesbians from the "anti-subordination project" into the mainstream middle-class. The third argues that, despite this concern, the gay and lesbian community can help move the country toward a …

Does Privacy Really Have A Problem In The Law Of Criminal Procedure?, Daniel B. Yeager Jan 1997

Does Privacy Really Have A Problem In The Law Of Criminal Procedure?, Daniel B. Yeager

Faculty Scholarship

Agreeing with William Stuntz's conclusion that privacy retains a significant position in the law of criminal procedure, the author defends a privacy-oriented procedural regime that can .be reconciled with an activist regulatory state. Part One of this Article suggests that the comparatively light judicial supervision of police coercion owes more to the conditions under which force is used than to what Stuntz views as the Court's indifference to what police do to us, or to its "obsession" over what police can see and hear. By redescribing questions of privacy, or questions of privacy and coercion, merely as questions of coercion, …

Dangerous Games And The Criminal Law, Daniel B. Yeager Jan 1997

Dangerous Games And The Criminal Law, Daniel B. Yeager

Faculty Scholarship

This essay means to correct the ways in which the law of homicide deals with lucky winners or survivors of dangerous games that end in the deaths of unlucky (dead) "losers" or even unluckier non-participants. Drag racing and Russian roulette are my focus, not only because they are so frequently litigated, but also because most other (unlawful) excessive risk-taking ventures are not, grammatically, what we mean when we say "game." It is not so much my intention to evaluate the role that "moral luck" plays generally in the world or specifically in the criminal law. It is my position that …

An Artist's Privilege, Niels Schaumann Jan 1997

An Artist's Privilege, Niels Schaumann

Faculty Scholarship

This article examines visual art in light of the letter and the spirit of the Constitution's Copyright Clause and the Copyright Act of 1976 (“Act”) and concludes that artists should have the freedom to copy works, not only of popular culture, but of all kinds. In other words, people creating art should be permitted to copy anything and everything. This is not to suggest that copyright serves no purpose: destroying the copyright edifice merely to protect the ability of certain artists to create would be dangerous and foolhardy. Practical limitations on an artist's privilege to copy can be imposed to …

United States. V. Virginia New Gender Equal Protection Analysis With Ramifications For Pregnancy, Parenting And Title Vii, Candace Kovacic-Fleischer Jan 1997

United States. V. Virginia New Gender Equal Protection Analysis With Ramifications For Pregnancy, Parenting And Title Vii, Candace Kovacic-Fleischer

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

ABSTRACT: In this Article, Professor Kovacic-Fleischer argues that the Supreme Court's recent decision in United States v. Virginia raises gender equal protection analysis to the level of strict scrutiny. Professor Kovacic-Fleischer asserts that the Court's refusal to accept as immutable VMI's single-sex institutional design, and the Court's requirement that VMT make adjustments and alterations that will enable qualified women to undertake VM's curriculum evidences this shift in gender equal protection analysis. Professor Kovacic-Fleischer then turns to the significance of the Court's citation to California Federal Savings & Loan Association v. Guerra. She asserts that this citation indicates that the Court …

Statutory Construction And Judicial Policy-Making Impact Whether Title Vii's Definition Of Employer Imposes Individual Liability Upon An Agent, Cheryl L. Feutz Jan 1997

Statutory Construction And Judicial Policy-Making Impact Whether Title Vii's Definition Of Employer Imposes Individual Liability Upon An Agent, Cheryl L. Feutz

Missouri Law Review

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 19642 ("Title VII") prohibits employment discrimination Although no question exists that "employers" are liable for their discriminatory acts as well as for their agents' acts that occur within the scope of employment,4 a conflict exists among the federal circuits regarding whether Title VII's definition of "employer" also imposes individual liability upon the employer's agent. The Seventh Circuit answered this question for its circuit in Williams v. Banning.'

Medical Malpractice Claim--Plaintiff's Privacy Is Protected, Morry S. Cole Jan 1997

Medical Malpractice Claim--Plaintiff's Privacy Is Protected, Morry S. Cole

Missouri Law Review

Under Missouri law, a plaintiff who asserts a personal injury, workers' compensation or other claim based on a medical condition waives the physician-patient testimony privilege to the extent that past medical records are relevant to the asserted injury in time or scope. This Note will examine the development of this exception to Missouri's statutory physician-patient testimonial privilege in the context of State ex rel. Stecher v. Dowd, the recent Missouri Supreme Court case that reaffirmed the requirement that discovery of a plaintiffs past medical history may not be overly expansive.

Arbitrator Or Private Investigator: Should The Arbitrator's Duty To Disclose Include A Duty To Investigate - Abudullah E. Al-Harbi V. Citibank, N.A. And Citibank, A.S., R. Travis Jacobs

Journal of Dispute Resolution

Arbitration and other forms of dispute resolution are replacing courtroom litigation as a means of resolving problems because they are less time consuming, less expensive and promote a friendlier atmosphere. In the case of arbitration, if people are to continue to use arbitration and give arbitrator's decisions credibility, there must be faith that the arbitrator is fair. There must also be a channel to challenge the arbitrator's decision if it was not reached in a fair manner.' This channel is provided statutorily by the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) which allows a decision to be reversed if the arbitrator displayed partiality …
