The Sarbanes-Oxley Act: A Reason For The Slipshod To Become The Scrupulous In The Accounting Profession, Joseph J. Schantz Ii

Senior Honors Theses

This thesis examines in detail the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, including the historical events leading up to its enactment and its subsequent effect on the accounting profession. Congress approved the Sarbanes-Oxley Act on July 30, 2002, during the disclosure of immense pecuniary fraud perpetrated by many of America's largest companies. The Act created new requirements and restrictions for auditors, management, and corporations in hopes of correcting and preventing some of the troubles America was facing at the time. The Act establishes the five-member Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, giving it the authority and power to write rules and enforce penalties, …

The Paper Tiger Of Gideon V. Wainwright And The Evisceration Of The Right To Appointment Of Legal Counsel For Indigent Defendants, Amanda Myra Hornung

Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal

The note examines the disparity between the Sixth Amendment's promise of counsel for indigent defendants and the realities of its implementation, arguing that while landmark cases like Gideon v. Wainwright established the right to appointed counsel in state criminal proceedings, significant gaps remain in ensuring effective representation. The analysis highlights systemic issues such as inadequate funding, excessive caseloads, and limited access to resources, which undermine the fairness of criminal trials. The note advocates for increased funding, reduced caseloads, and clearer standards for effective assistance of counsel to fulfill the constitutional guarantee of equal justice.

The Invisible Pillar Of Gideon, Adam M. Gershowitz

Faculty Publications

In 1996, the State of South Carolina charged Larry McVay with common-law robbery. McVay, who was employed part-time and took home less than $160 per week after taxes, claimed that after paying his basic living expenses he had no money left with which to hire an attorney. A South Carolina court disagreed and denied McVay’s request for appointed counsel. Seven years later, Scott Peterson was arrested for the murder of his wife and unborn child in California. Although Peterson owned a home, drove an expensive SUV, and was carrying $10,000 in cash when he was captured, he claimed to be …

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

The Trial Of Saddam Hussein — Victor’S Justice?, Charles H.B. Garraway Obe

Brendan F. Brown Lecture Series

As tempting as it might be for an international tribunal of judges to blast the cruel legacy of Saddam Hussein before the eyes of an approving world, a rushed and strident show trial does not serve the interest of justice, declared retired British military lawyer Charles Garraway. Delivering the 77th Brendan F. Brown Lecture, “The Trial of Saddam Hussein — Victor’s Justice,” Garraway said meaningful justice can only be meted out by Iraqis themselves, according to their own laws and procedures. Thus, preparations are moving slowly as prosecutors insist on getting the trial right as a matter of law and …

The Expansion Of Intellectual Property Rights By International Agreement: A Case Study Comparing Chile And Australia’S Bilateral Fta Negotiations With The U.S., Ralph G. Fischer

ExpressO

This paper attempts to address the ongoing debate regarding the expansion of intellectual property rights (IPRs) through international negotiations. Commentators have described three theories that purport to explain the growing scope of IPRs in international law, as reflected in international agreements: that these agreements reflect coercion by economically powerful nations; that they are the products of lobbying by multinational corporations; and that they represent autonomous, welfare-enhancing instruments that benefit all parties. The article tests these theories by using a case study comparing free trade agreement negotiations that the United States recently concluded with a less developed country, Chile, and with …

Dangerous Clients: A Phenomenological Solution To Bureaucratic Oppression, Edward L. Rubin

ExpressO

Modern administrative agencies are often unnecessarily oppressive in their day-to-day contact with people. This article traces such oppression to status differences between agency employees and clients, their relationship as strangers to one another, the institutional pathologies of the agency and the divergent incentives to which the agency employees are subject. The article then considers three solutions to this problem that have been discussed in the academic literature regarding government agencies: the imposition of due process requirements, the shift to client-centered management, and the use of market or quasi-market mechanisms.

After critiquing all three solutions, the article proposes a new approach, …
