Recommendations For An Environmentally Sound Federal Policy On Western Water, Reed D. Benson

Faculty Scholarship

The organizations and individuals who have produced this report have worked for years to promote environmentally sound federal policy and action with respect to water in the American West. The Western Water Policy Review Advisory Commission's (the "Commission") evaluation of these issues presents an excellent opportunity to address long-standing concerns. We believe the Commission can help advance federal policy to promote sustainable use, management and protection of western waters. We begin with a brief look at current water problems in the West from our perspective. We then identify four general priorities for the federal government: taking steps toward restoring more …

Effects Of Prenatal Drug Exposure On Neurobehavioral Functioning In Young Infants, Yvette Blanchard, Patricia E. Suess, Marjorie Beeghly

All PTHMS Faculty Publications

In the newborn period, infants prenatally exposed to cocaine and other drugs show low scores on the Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale. Beyond that period, research is limited on the effects of prenatal drug exposure on neurobehavioral functioning. In this study we compared infants exposed to cocaine and other drugs and control infants from low socioeconomic backgrounds on measures of neurobehavioral functioning during neuromotor assessment at 1, 4 and 7 months of life. None of the measures of neurobehavioral functioning showed any significant group differences. This study did not support the hypothesis of disrupted neurobehavioral functioning beyond the neonatal period in …

Mandatory Indeterminate Sentences Under Dangerous Offender Legislation, Jennifer J. Soward

Dalhousie Journal of Legal Studies

On September 17, 1996, Allan Rock, Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada, and Herb Grey, Solicitor General of Canada, announced "tough new measures" to deal with dangerous offenders. These measures were introduced in Bill C-55, which received Royal Assent on April 15, 1997. The following comment focuses on only one significant change to the dangerous offender legislation. As part of these measures, the new section 753(4) of the Criminal Code removes a judge's discretion to award a determinate sentence once an accused is found to be a dangerous offender. This discretionary power is which existed in the former …

Night And Day: Coeur D’Alene, Breard, And The Unraveling Of The Prospective-Retrospective Distinction In Eleventh Amendment Doctrine, Carlos Manuel Vázquez

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

The Supreme Court's decision in Edelman v. Jordan has been read to establish a distinction between suits seeking prospective relief from a state official's violation of federal law (which are not barred by the Eleventh Amendment under Ex parte Young) and suits seeking retrospective relief from the state (which are barred by the Eleventh Amendment, even if the officer is the defendant). Commentators and the lower courts have long had difficulty understanding and applying the distinction. Until recently, the principal effect of the Edelman line of cases has been to bar suits seeking damages and similar monetary relief from …

Law And Language: An Empirically-Based Model For The Opening Moments Of Client Interviews, Gay Gellhorn

Clinical Law Review

This paper presents a model for lawyer-client interaction in the opening moments of an initial encounter. The model is derived from empirical data- videotaped and transcribed law student-client and attorney-client first interviews- which demonstrate that clients reveal critical self-information in their opening words, regardless of when those words occur and regardless of the legal interviewer's role in eliciting them. This information usually is not acknowledged by legal interviewers, with negative consequences. Failure to hear and see affects the legal interviewer's ability to form a relationship with a client, to comprehend the full range of information the client needs to share, …

Responding To The Value Imperative: Learning To Create Value In The Attorney-Client Relationship, Kenneth R. Margolis

Clinical Law Review

There is widespread agreement that law schools cannot do everything necessary to prepare students for the competent practice of law. Perhaps law schools are best suited to concentrate on basic legal skills and knowledge building a foundation for the more advanced skills and knowledge that every lawyer must possess in order to represent clients effectively. Even in clinical programs, there are limits to what can be taught to novice practitioners. How to relate to clients, basic factual investigation, fundamental legal research, how to prepare a simple statement to the court, how to plan for a negotiation - let alone the …

Understanding Casablanca: A Values-Based Approach To Legal Negotiations, Roy Stuckey

Clinical Law Review

The central thesis of this Article is that each party's desire to attain personal happiness underlies all decisions in negotiations. While this paradigm does not resolve all of the uncertainties about negotiations, it does provide a simple reference point that can help us understand what the parties to a negotiation want, expect, and are willing to accept. It can also help us develop and employ effective strategies and tactics. The objective of all negotiators is to obtain satisfactory outcomes. As lawyers, we have a professional responsibility to try to maximize our clients' satisfaction with the results of negotiations. This requires …

Clients' And Students' Stories: Avoiding Exploitation And Complying With The Law To Produce Scholarship With Integrity, Nina W. Tarr

Clinical Law Review

The students sit in the clinic shaking their heads over their client's situation. The professor joins in the discussion and some other students gather around to hear the story, to add their comments and to assist in developing strategy. The next day, the professor listens while the students counsel the client who tells them some additional facts and looks worried. They step into the courtroom where the opposing counsel and judge waltz through the proceedings like old dance partners while the students make an excellent effort to keep up. On the way back to the law school, the professor and …

The Book Of Margery Kempe: Religious Discourse And The Carnivalesque Woman, Kathryn Summers

Quidditas

Both during her lifetime and since the full manuscript of her forceful autobiography was discovered, no one has quite known what to do with Margery Kempe. Even her staunchest contemporary supporters occasionally lost patience with her or worried that they had inadvertently allied themselves with the wrong side in the divine conflict. Margery followed all the conventional Christian forms: she passed repeated ecclesiastical trials for orthodoxy with flying colors; she went on all the right pilgrimages; she said numberless prayers and took countless communions; even her crying fits and most of her visions have been shown to reflect the experiences …

Medical Paradigms For Counseling: Giving Clients Bad News, Linda F. Smith

Clinical Law Review

The paradigm of a professional delivering "bad news," while not current in legal counseling, has become an important paradigm in the medical world. Medical professionals see counseling as typically beginning with a diagnosis; and sometimes that diagnosis is upsetting to the patient. Hence oncologists tell patients of their cancer, geneticists tell parents their infant has Down syndrome, and emergency room staff tell relatives about accidents and death. Usually these medical professionals also offer choices- choices among therapies, pain management techniques and support systems. But before the counselor offers alternatives, she must deliver the "bad news." This paper draws upon the …

Community Education: Creating A New Vision Of Legal Services Practice, Ingrid V. Eagly

Clinical Law Review

This Article attempts to bridge some of the gaps between theory about collaborative lawyering and the reality of everyday Legal Services practice by exploring the potential of community education to address the problems of poor clients. By using a case study of a community education program in Chicago, this Article demonstrates how this underutilized lawyering technique can be employed as a component of Legal Services practice. It is an especially opportune time to examine community education as a strategy because it is one of the few activities that Legal Services lawyers are still able to conduct, aside from individual client …

Preparing Students For The Profession: Clinical Education, Collaborative Pedagogy, And The Realities Of Practice For The New Lawyer, Catherine Gage O'Grady

Clinical Law Review

Legal education is currently taking tentative steps beyond teaching lawyering skills toward a focus on professional collaborative relationships and human interactions. To this end, many legal educators have embraced a pedagogy that values student collaboration. Clinical education in particular has been praised for providing students with numerous opportunities to work collaboratively, and clinical educators have generally recognized the benefits of collaborative pedagogy to prepare students for the practice of law. Few educators, however, have asked whether collaborative pedagogy in a law school clinic adequately prepares students to face the power differentials and conformance pressures that do not exist in most …
