Help At Your Fingertips: A Twenty-First Century Response To The Pro Se Phenomenon, Van Wormer, Nina Ingwer

Vanderbilt Law Review

In July 2001, Aventis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. fired Susan Hudock, an award-winning sales representative suffering from shingles. Angered and frustrated, Ms. Hudock retained an attorney and filed suit against her former employer, alleging that the company violated the Americans with Disabilities Act by failing to make "reasonable accommodations" that would enable her to perform certain job-related functions.

Despite being warned by her former attorney that she …


The Rhetoric Of Symmetry, Karen Petroski Apr 2007

The Rhetoric Of Symmetry, Karen Petroski

All Faculty Scholarship

References to the concept of symmetry have appeared in judicial opinions, advocacy efforts, and scholarly commentary throughout American legal history. But for every legal writer who invokes the concept as a logical or moral ideal, there is another who dismisses it as a formalistic distraction or an arid illusion. What is more, although legal writers virtually always use the term “symmetry” as if its meaning were self-evident, in fact they have used the same term to refer to a variety of distinct concepts, each with its own ambiguities.


Discovering The Legal Concerns Of The Tennessee Agricultural Community, Ernest Bazen, Julie Pedigo Bowling Apr 2007

Discovering The Legal Concerns Of The Tennessee Agricultural Community, Ernest Bazen, Julie Pedigo Bowling

Journal of Extension

New production strategies, changing consumer demand, dramatic revisions to federal programs, and new state programs have expanded the choices and decisions that farm families are faced with on a daily basis. Many of the day-to-day activities of farmers and ranchers involve commitments that have legal implications. Understanding these legal issues can lead to better risk-management decisions. The most successful farmers are now looking at a deliberate and knowledgeable approach to legal risk management as a vital part of their farm plan. An important finding of the study reported here is that farmers often seek educational materials from state Extension programs.
