Civil Justice Reform Sunset, Carl W. Tobias

Law Faculty Publications

This article uses the Civil Justice Reform Act of 1990 (CJRA) as the backdrop for addressing efforts to increase uniformity, simplicity, and transsubstantivity, and to decrease expense and delay in civil litigation. Professor Tobias discusses both the origin and the implementation of the CJRA. By requiring each federal district court to formulate a civil justice expense and delay reduction plan, the purpose of the CJRA is to decrease expense and delay in civil litigation. Professor Tobias argues that the CIRA has been successful because districts have applied techniques that have saved cost and time and have provided new data that …

Reforming Common Sense Legal Reforms, Carl W. Tobias

Law Faculty Publications

The Contract With America figured prominently in the Republican Party's victories in the 1994 congressional races. During the opening days of the 104th Congress, therefore, approximately one hundred sponsors introduced the Common Sense Legal Refonns Act (CSLRA), which embodied several measures that comprised the Contract's ninth precept. The only constituent of this package of proposals which actually became law was the Private Securities Litigation Refonn Act (PSLRA). Both Houses of Congress did pass products liability reform bills but lacked the requisite votes to override President Bill Clinton's veto. The House of Representatives approved the Attorney Accountability Act (AAA), which would …

National Bankruptcy Review Commission's Section 365 Recommendations And The Larger Conceptual Issues, David G. Epstein

Law Faculty Publications

In the chapter of the Report of the National Bankruptcy Commission ("Report") entitled "Business Bankruptcy," the National Bankruptcy Review Commission ("Review Commission") makes four recommendations regarding section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code: 2.4.1 Clarifying the Meaning of "Rejection" The concept of "rejection" in section 365 should be replaced with "election to breach." Section 365 should provide that a trustee's ability to elect to breach a contract of the debtor is not an avoiding power. Section 502(g) should be amended to provide that a claim arising from the election to breach shall be allowed or disallowed the same as if such …

Commercial Codification As Negotiation, David Frisch

Law Faculty Publications

Part I of this Article endeavors to put the sales law in perspective by emphasizing its role in the broader system of commercial law. Then, in Part II we focus on a particular example (the buyer's right to recover goods upon the seller's insolvency) to support our general observation that the revision reflects a fatal insensitivity to the need for article 2 to fit with other bodies of commercial codification. Part III demonstrates the revi~ion's failure to come to terms with the role of context and makes the argument that the drafters' shortsightedness is evidenced by the manner in which …

A Comparative Study Of The Motivations And Academic Self-Concept Of Midlife Male Graduate Students With Those Of Midlife Female, Early Adulthood Male, And Early Adulthood Female Graduate Students, Scott Brewer Clift

UNF Graduate Theses and Dissertations

This study was designed to compare midlife male graduate students with midlife female, early adulthood male, and early adulthood female graduate students in terms of their motivations for returning to higher education and their academic self-concept as returning students. Data were gathered, using Boshiers's Education Participation Scale (1995) and Drummond's Academic Self-Concept Scale (1984), from graduate students at a comprehensive, urban, southeastern, public university of approximately 10,000 students. The 426 graduate student participants were enrolled in three colleges (Business, Education, and Health) at the university.

Multivariate analysis of variance (MAN"OVA), univariate analysis of variance, and multiple comparison tests results indicate …

Critical Casimir Forces Between Spherical Particles In Fluids, Andreas Hanke, F. Schlesener, E. Eisenriegler, S. Dietrich

Physics & Astronomy Faculty Publications

Long-ranged correlations in a fluid close to its critical point Tc cause distinct forces between immersed colloidal particles and the container walls. We calculate such a force and its temperature dependence for the generic case of a spherical particle located at a distance D from a planar wall and find that the force attains a maximum at a temperature Tmax(D) above Tc, which facilitates quantitative experimental tests. The corresponding effective pair interaction between the colloidal particles themselves, potentially leading to aggregation, is also discussed.

Discursive Departures: A Reading Paradigm Affiliated With Feminist, Lesbian, Aesthetic And Queer Practices (With Reference To Woolf, Stein And H.D.) (Virginia Woolf, Gertrude Stein, Hilda Doolittle), Tamara Ann Ramsay

Theses and Dissertations (Comprehensive)

In her conclusion to Bodies That Matter Judith Butler posits that “if the power of discourse to produce that which it names is linked with the question of performativity, then the performative is one domain in which power acts as discourse" (225). In this thesis I will adopt theories of the performative, as a metadiscursive mode of analysis, to allow me to articulate some of the ways in which reading is regulated by formations of discourse and power. I will argue that if reading is considered as a performative process then different paradigms of reading will name, and consequently produce, …

Reconceiving The Role Of Section 8(B)(1)(A): 1947–1997: An Essay On Collective Empowerment And The Public Good, Roger C. Hartley

Scholarly Articles

The Taft-Hartley section 8(b)(1)(A)s union discipline cases are linked to the impending collapse of collective bargaining in two ways. At one level, they have helped cause it by denying union majorities an important tool to enforce solidarity during economic disputes with employers and thereby have contributed to the loss of worker empowerment. At another level, the union discipline cases reflect certain shifts in national sentiments with respect to the role of unions and collective bargaining in general and the accommodation of collective bargaining to the competing claims of individuals and employers in particular. This paper is about both linkages.

‘Mixed’ Constitutions: Product Of An East-Central European Constitutional Melting Pot, Rett R. Ludwikowski

Part II examines the processes involved in the adoption of the various components of existing constitutional models into the constitutions of the East-Central European states, including separate analysis of the distributions of power, the structures of the legislatures, the electoral systems, the systems of governance and mechanisms of judicial enforcement provided by these instruments. Finally, Part III makes observations and draws conclusions regarding the processes examined in Part II.

Zinc Phosphide Residues In Gray-Tailed Voles (Microtus Canicaudus) Fed Fixed Particles Of A 2% Grain Bait, R. T. Sterner, D. A. Goldade, R. E. Mauldin

United States Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services: Staff Publications

This study measured depelted-carcass residues of zinc phosphide (Zn₃P₂, CAS # 1314-84-7) in 8 (4 males and 4 females) gray-tailed voles (Microtus canicaudus). Six (3 males and 3 females) voles were confined individually in 1.89 dkl (5 gal) plastic pails that contained 5,2% Zn₃P₂ steamrolled- oat (SRO) groats; 2 voles (1 male and 1 female) served as analytical (unbaited) controls. Four test voles (3 males and 1female) died within 7.5 h after bait exposure; whereas, 2 test voles showed no signs of toxicosis and were euthanized 7.0 h after bait exposure. …
