California's Attempts To Disarm The Black Panthers, Cynthia Deitle Leonardatos Jan 1999

California's Attempts To Disarm The Black Panthers, Cynthia Deitle Leonardatos

San Diego Law Review

When the Black Panthers screamed of an armed black populace on the verge of a revolution in 1966, the California Legislature responded with a gun control statute. While many journal articles have been written on the topic of race and guns, none have examined the history and motivations behind the California Legislature's decision to enact a gun control statute in 1967 for the purpose of disarming the members of the Black Panther Party. This Article examines and analyzes this particular California law to enhance the Second Amendment literature on the topic of discriminatory gun control statutes. Accordingly, Part II of …

Responses Of Glossina Fuscipes Fuscipes (Diptera: Glossinidae) And Other Diptera To Carbon Dioxide In Linear And Dense Forests, M. M. Mohamed-Ahmed, S. Mihok Jan 1999

Responses Of Glossina Fuscipes Fuscipes (Diptera: Glossinidae) And Other Diptera To Carbon Dioxide In Linear And Dense Forests, M. M. Mohamed-Ahmed, S. Mihok

All Peer-Reviewed Publications

The responses of Glossina fuscipes fuscipes Newstead and other Diptera to carbon dioxide were studied in linear and dense forests along the shores of Lake Victoria, Kenya. Flies were caught in biconical traps and were intercepted with electric nets while in flight near traps. Carbon dioxide dispensed at a high rate (51 min-1) in linear forest failed to increase the numbers of tsetse attracted to or caught in traps. In contrast, catches of non-biting Muscidae, Stomoxyinae and Tabanidae were improved by up to 11 times. Inside dense forest, carbon dioxide released at half this rate increased both the numbers of …

Arbitration And Beyond: Avoiding Pitfalls In Drafting Dispute Resolution Clauses In Employment Contracts, Nancy A. Welsh

Faculty Scholarship

Article Extract:

You've just helped a mid-sized company, Allwell Corp., to reach a settlement in an action brought by a disgruntled former employee. The CEO turns to you and says, "Even though I still believe that we didn't do anything wrong, I'm glad this lawsuit is over. I can't believe how much money and time we've wasted in defending ourselves. Now, how can we keep this from happening in the future? I've been reading about companies putting arbitration clauses in all kinds of contracts. I want to know whether we can require our employees to arbitrate and maybe even require …


Vital Communities Criteria For Urban Neighborhood Development, Peter Frederick Smith Jan 1999

Vital Communities Criteria For Urban Neighborhood Development, Peter Frederick Smith

Theses

It is the goal of this document to explore the issues and physical attributes related to the creation of vital communities. Research into North American and European precedents of planned community design, from the late 19th Century to the present, and the study of the qualities of vitality of two healthy neighborhoods; The Beaches in Toronto, Canada, and the Ironbound in Newark, New Jersey, have demonstrated that the model for neighborhood development is the main street.

Further research determined that Springfield Avenue, in the City of Newark, New Jersey, would provide the armature for the revitalization of an urban neighborhood, …


Revisiting The "Men Problem" In Introductory Women's Studies Classes, Glyn Hughes Jan 1999

Revisiting The "Men Problem" In Introductory Women's Studies Classes, Glyn Hughes

Sociology and Anthropology Faculty Publications

Outside women's studies classrooms, discourses of white masculinity under siege are proliferating with devastating consequences for women and people of color. Indeed, in each of the most reactionary domestic political events and trends of the past five or so years the social group most united in the support of reaction has been young white men, from the 1994 "Republican revolution," to California's propositions 187 and 209. Yet, against the backdrop of globalized labor markets and diffusing corporatization, the manifest destiny of being young, white, and male in the United States now seems to many like a cruel promise; in the …


Finding The Constitution: An Economic Analysis Of Tradition's Role In Constitutional Interpretation, Adam C. Pritchard, Todd J. Zywicki Jan 1999

Finding The Constitution: An Economic Analysis Of Tradition's Role In Constitutional Interpretation, Adam C. Pritchard, Todd J. Zywicki

Articles

In this Article, Professor Pritchard and Professor Zywicki examine the role of tradition in constitutional interpretation, a topic that has received significant attention in recent years. After outlining the current debate over the use of tradition, the authors discuss the efficiency purposes of constitutionalism--precommitment and the reduction of agency costs--and demonstrate how the use of tradition in constitutional interpretation can serve these purposes. Rejecting both Justice Scalia's majoritarian model, which focuses on legislative sources of tradition, and Justice Souter's common-law model, which focuses on Supreme Court precedent as a source of tradition, the authors propose an alternative model--the "finding model"-- …


Mother Still Knows Best: Cancer-Related Gene Mutations, Familial Privacy, And A Physician's Duty To Warn, Alissa Jan 1999

Mother Still Knows Best: Cancer-Related Gene Mutations, Familial Privacy, And A Physician's Duty To Warn, Alissa

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The vows of the Hippocratic Oath which include a vow to abstain from sharing a patient's personal information remains an important tenet of medical care today. Physician-patient confidentiality even abstains sharing information with patients' families. However, when medical information affects the health of the patient's relatives, many medical professionals assert that they have a duty to share the information, with or without the patient's consent, particularly in the context of children of patients with genetic diseases and disorders, where forewarning may significantly decrease the risks or increase prevention of the effects of the disease or disorder. Currently, while physicians respect …

Working Outside The Rules: The Undefined Responsibilities Of Federal Prosecutors, Laurie L. Levenson Jan 1999

Working Outside The Rules: The Undefined Responsibilities Of Federal Prosecutors, Laurie L. Levenson

Fordham Urban Law Journal

This Article discusses the undefined responsibilities of federal prosecutors. For purposes of example, the essay focuses primarily on five situations in which federal prosecutors are often expected to operate "outside" of the rules, including: charging and investigative decisions, discovery, plea bargaining, dealing with the press, and sentencing decisions. While there are "rules" in each of these areas, they take a back seat to the discretionary powers prosecutors are expected to exercise wisely when performing their duties. In judging whether there has been an appropriate exercise of those powers, it is not the rules that will govern society's judgment. Rather, the …

Sincere And Strategic Voting Norms On Multimember Courts, Evan H. Caminker Jan 1999

Sincere And Strategic Voting Norms On Multimember Courts, Evan H. Caminker

Articles

In appellate adjudication, decisions are rendered by a multimember court as a collective entity, not by individual judges. Yet legal scholars have only just begun to explore the formal and informal processes by which individual votes are transformed into a collective judgment.' In particular, they have paid insufficient attention to the ways in which the vote of each individual judge is influenced by the views of her colleagues on a multimember court.


In Memoriam: Lewis F. Powell, Jr., Christina B. Whitman Jan 1999

In Memoriam: Lewis F. Powell, Jr., Christina B. Whitman

Articles

At the time of his resignation, Justice Lewis F. Powell, Jr. was justly praised as a moderate, flexible jurist - open-minded, suspicious of ideology, most often found at the center of a divided Supreme Court. Yet Justice Powell was a man of deeply conservative instincts. Suspicious of invitations to expand the scope of individual constitutional rights, he was a participant and even a leader in the Court's reassertion of a federalism that emphasized deference to states and in its reinvigoration of restrictions on access to federal courts. His jurisprudence was all of a piece. Justice Powell's reluctance to expand federal …


Lost Lives: Miscarriages Of Justice In Capital Cases, Samuel R. Gross Jan 1999

Lost Lives: Miscarriages Of Justice In Capital Cases, Samuel R. Gross

Articles

In case after case, erroneous conviction for capital murder has been proven. I contend that these are not disconnected accidents, but systematic consequences of the nature of homicice prosecution in the general and capital prosecution in particular - that in this respect, as in others, death distorts and undermines the course of the law.


Local Innovations And Practical Answers To Campaign Costs, Bill Green Jan 1999

Local Innovations And Practical Answers To Campaign Costs, Bill Green

Fordham Urban Law Journal

Valeo, The panel also addressed reform efforts that seek to ease the demand for …


Is Sexual Orientation Immutable?: Presenting Scientific Evidence In Litigation To Gain Strict Scrutiny, Dan Brook, Suzanne Goldberg, Kate Diaz Jan 1999

Is Sexual Orientation Immutable?: Presenting Scientific Evidence In Litigation To Gain Strict Scrutiny, Dan Brook, Suzanne Goldberg, Kate Diaz

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The panelists discussed the issue of immutability. Professor Goldberg explored the legal landscape, the use of scientific evidence related to immutability at trial, with a particular focus on Romer v. Evans, and critiqued the use of science-based immutability evidence in litigation. Dr. Brook looked at a number of studies in the etiology of homosexuality, and concluded that the best method of determining immutability scientifically is looking at studies that seek to determine if, and how easily, sexuality can be changed. Finally, Ms. Diaz discussed the political economy of theories of homosexuality, looking at the examples of the political economy and …

Name Reporting And Partner Notification Legislation, Catherine Hanssens, Matthew Carmody, Haley Gorenberg, Mildred Pinot

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The panelists discussed the issues of names-based HIV reporting and partner notification. The discussion focused on why names reporting became such an important and controversial issue. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention waged an aggressive campaign in states to institute a national system of HIV test reporting, arguing that it is essential to get a more accurate picture of the epidemic and facilitate individual follow-up. The panelists assessed the pros and cons of this program. Name reporting and partner notification under New York law were also addressed. Finally, the panelists provided discussion on how those contemplating getting tested or …


Section 60.41 Of The New York Criminal Procedure Law: The Sexual Assault Reform Act Of 1999 Challenges Molineux And Due Process, Brooks Holland Jan 1999

Section 60.41 Of The New York Criminal Procedure Law: The Sexual Assault Reform Act Of 1999 Challenges Molineux And Due Process, Brooks Holland

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The 1999 Sexual Assault Reform Act of 1999 proposed the addition of section 60.41 to Article 60 of the New York Criminal Procedure Law to allow prosecutors in sexual assault prosecutions to introduce evidence of a defendant's previous commission of any "offense or offenses of sexual assault.., on any matter to which it is relevant, including the defendant's propensity to commit an offense of sexual assault or the credibility of the alleged victim of the sexual assault . ." The author argues that this law would upset a century of New York law under the Molineux rule, which holds that …


1998 Survey Of Ethics In Land-Use Planning, Patricia E. Salkin Jan 1999

1998 Survey Of Ethics In Land-Use Planning, Patricia E. Salkin

Fordham Urban Law Journal

Beginning from the premise that 1998 saw an increase in the number of land-use ethics cases, this Article describes the issues and problems that relate to ethics in land-use cases by breaking them into four separate categories: conflicts of interest, compatibility of office, bias and prejudgment, and miscellaneous. The conflicts of interest section describes cases involving financial gain for oneself, a family member or a business associate. The compatibility of office section describes situations where a person holds multiple public offices and the conflicts in duty that might arise. The bias and prejudgment section describes situations where a person's predetermined …
