Cries And Whispers: Environmental Hazards, Model Rule 1.6, And The Attorney's Conflicting Duties To Clients And Others, Irma S. Russell

Faculty Works

This article examines the ethical tensions lawyers face when client confidentiality conflicts with the potential for environmental harm. This article focuses on Model Rule 1.6 of the Model Rules of Professional Conduct, arguing that its categorical approach to confidentiality often compels silence even when public safety is at stake. By exploring the role of attorneys as both client advocates and officers of the court, the article critiques the profession’s prioritization of the “attorney as champion” model. Using the hypothetical of a domestic environmental disaster akin to Bhopal, the article highlights the inadequacy of current ethical rules to address widespread …

Well Screen Characteristics Which Constrain Hydraulic Conductivity Calculated From Slug Tests, Christopher G. Amore

Masters Theses

With the growing concern over ground water protection and waste water management, interest in the use of slug tests to characterize hydraulic properties of aquifers has increased. While slug tests offer an inexpensive alternative to pump tests, problems arise with collection of the tests and the interpretation of the results. Field tests and mathematical studies show that both positive and negative biases of formation properties have been obtained. The resulting errors can be traced to improper analytical techniques, incorrect assumptions of well configuration and aquifer properties, poor well installation and data gathering. Most of these problems can be corrected by …

City Council Legislative Committees And Policy-Making In Large United States Cities, John P. Pelissero, Timothy B. Krebs

Political Science: Faculty Publications and Other Works

Theory: Legislative committees are extensive and integral to the structure and policy-making functions of Congress and state legislatures. Scant research exists on current roles of committees of city councils.

Hypotheses: We hypothesize that city council committee systems are less common and not as vital to policy-making than is true of other legislative bodies. Contrary to much urban research, we further expect that city government structure, not the political environment, shapes development of committee systems and their policy roles.

Methods: Logistic and OLS regression are the methods used to analyze the structure of city council committee systems. Differences in policy outputs …

America Tries To Come To Terms With Terrorism: The United States Anti-Terrorism And Effective Death Penalty Act Of 1996 V. British Anti-Terrorism Law And International Response, Roberta Smith

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The note examines the legal and policy responses to terrorism, focusing on the tension between combating terrorism effectively and safeguarding civil liberties. It critiques the Anti-Terrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996 (AEDPA) and comparable international measures, arguing that while these laws aim to address the growing threat of terrorism, they risk infringing on constitutional rights and international cooperation. The analysis highlights the challenges of balancing security concerns with democratic values and the need for coordinated global strategies to counter terrorism.

Legislative "Subterfuge"?: Failing To Insure Persons With Mental Illness Under The Mental Health Parity Act And The Americans With Disabilities Act, Christopher A. Jones

Vanderbilt Law Review

The two primary problems with providing health care in the United States are cost and access., The cost of health care rose dramatically during the 1970s and 1980s and continues to increase, making coset containment crucial to the availability of care. In addition, many Americans are either entirely without health insurance or are underinsured for catastrophic illness. While individually these two issues are important, equally problematic is the tension that exists between them. Providing greater access to additional services results either in a cost increase or the loss of other services. Ultimately, however, a general plan to contain costs can …

Focal Point, Volume 11 Number 01, Portland State University. Regional Research Institute

Research and Training Center - Focal Point

In the discussion on the issues of juvenile crime, the nation has ignored the prevalence of mental disorders among youth who commit crimes, and it has failed to provide policy directives on how state systems should respond. With the nation’s attention riveted on youth violence, the issue of prevalence has began to emerge, with the realization that many of the violent acts are committed by a small percentage of young people. Policymakers are beginning to ask questions about the conditions that contribute to a young person’s tendency toward delinquency acts.

Christians V. Crystal Evangelical Free Church: Interpreting Rfra In The Battle Among God, The Government, And The Bankruptcy Code, Susan Franck

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

In keeping with their religious traditions as devout Protestants, Bruce and Nancy Young regularly gave to their church in New Hope, Minnesota. From February 1991 to February 1992, the Youngs tithed $13,450 to their church.' Unfortunately-due to financial difficulties--the Youngs filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in February 1992. Because the Youngs tithed the $13,450 while insolvent, the bankruptcy trustee for their estate initiated a proceeding to void the transfers and return the contributions to the estate.
