The Uccjea: What Is It And How Does It Affect Battered Women In Child-Custody Disputes, Joan Zorza
The Uccjea: What Is It And How Does It Affect Battered Women In Child-Custody Disputes, Joan Zorza
Fordham Urban Law Journal
The Uniform Child-Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act ("UCCJEA") is the revised version The Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction Act ("UCCJA"), which states are now being asked to adopt immediately in its stead. The UCCJA was the original model act for states to determine when they have jurisdiction to decide a custody case and when they must give full faith and credit to the custody decrees of other states. When the National Conference of Commission on Uniform State Laws ("NCCUSL") wrote the UCCJA in 1968, it sought to correct two major problems of its day: child abductions by family members and jurisdiction …

Public Declarations Of Professionalism Professionalism Symposium, Bruce A. Green
Faculty Scholarship
When it comes to the subject of "professionalism," there is a gap between the leaders of the organized bar and its members. Bar leaders are eager to discuss the subject. For example, this year's annual meeting of the American Bar Association ("ABA") afforded bar leaders, as well as legal academics, a host of opportunities to share strategies to promote "professionalism" and "professional values." The Section of Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar sponsored a program on "Professionalism in Law Schools and the Profession." Organizations representing bar executives, bar presidents, and bar foundations jointly presented a program called "Tough Talk, …

Elian Or Alien--The Contradictions Of Protecting Undocumented Children Under The Special Immigrant Juvenile Statute, Gregory Zhong Tian Chen
Elian Or Alien--The Contradictions Of Protecting Undocumented Children Under The Special Immigrant Juvenile Statute, Gregory Zhong Tian Chen
UC Law Constitutional Quarterly
In 1990, Congress enacted the Special Immigrant Juvenile ("SIJ") statute establishing a new form of immigration relief for undocumented children who have suffered from family abuse, neglect, or abandonment. The new law called for cooperation between federal immigration and state child welfare authorities in the implementation of the SIJ law, particularly with regard to jurisdictional and custodial power. Since the late nineteenth century, the federal government has asserted and maintained control over immigration matters, including determinations of individual immigration status. State and local governments, however, have historically taken principal responsibility for protecting the health, safety, and welfare of children within …

The results reveal that almost all of Michigan Law School's minority graduates pass a bar exam and go on to have careers that appear successful by …
Charging Battered Mothers With "Failure To Protect": Still Blaming The Victim
Charging Battered Mothers With "Failure To Protect": Still Blaming The Victim
Fordham Urban Law Journal
Domestic violence harms children and families. In the past several years, efforts to recognize this harm have led to the passage of new state laws that allow for concurrent criminal and family court jurisdiction in domestic violence cases, mandate arrest in domestic violence situations and require courts to consider domestic violence as a factor in custody decisions. Unfortunately, the heightened awareness of the harm domestic violence causes children has also resulted in a punitive policy towards battered women in the child welfare system. Increasingly in New York City, abuse and neglect proceedings are brought against battered mothers. Their children are …
The First Amendment, The Right Not To Speak And The Problem Of Government Access Statutes, Anna M. Taruschio
The First Amendment, The Right Not To Speak And The Problem Of Government Access Statutes, Anna M. Taruschio
Fordham Urban Law Journal
The dual principles of promoting the marketplace of ideas and protecting individual autonomy lie at the core of the First Amendment. When the government assumes an affirmative role by opening opportunities for public speech, it places individuals' negative liberties, such as the right not to speak, at risk. This conflict cannot be avoided by analyzing compelled speech outside of the First Amendment; the autonomy promised by the Bill of Rights and repeatedly affirmed by Supreme Court jurisprudence protects the right not to speak. Scholars, jurists, and practitioners therefore should pay close attention to the right not to speak when the …

Lawyering For Social Change, Karen L. Loewy
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This Note explores the significance, legitimacy and methodology of lawyering for social change. It begins by examining lawyers' motives for entering into such work and the theoretical approaches toward political lawyering and the methodologies employed to effect change. It raises the question of whether it is justifiable for a lawyer to drive social change specifically considering his unique access to the legal system. The Note concludes that it is entirely legitimate for a lawyer to engage in work for social change in order to ensure that the rights of all people are protected whether through litigation, public education seminars, rallies, …
Our Drug Laws Have Failed - So Where Is The Desperately Needed Meaningful Reform?, David C. Leven
Our Drug Laws Have Failed - So Where Is The Desperately Needed Meaningful Reform?, David C. Leven
Fordham Urban Law Journal
The article begins by stating that the harsh drug laws of New York have failed to have an effect on the amount of drug dealers and instead have led to overcrowding of prisons with non-addict drug users. It states that the laws must be modified to give greater sentencing to judges, increasing diversion of non-violent offenders to rehabilitation. The article then delineates the problems resulting from current drug law and the criticism thereof. It then states the attempted reforms of drug laws that have been insufficient. The article concludes by suggesting proposals to solve the problems delineated, including proportionate sentences, …
