Solving The Parents Involved Paradox, Lino A. Graglia Jan 2008

Solving The Parents Involved Paradox, Lino A. Graglia

Seattle University Law Review

The Supreme Court's decision in Parents Involved in Community Schools v. Seattle School District No. 1 (Parents Involved) presents the seeming paradox that the Constitution can on one day require a school district to take drastic measures, including busing students across a giant school district to increase racial integration in schools, and then prohibit school districts from taking even the mildest measures, such as using race as a tie-breaker in making student assignments, on the next. How, a rational observer must wonder, can this be possible? The answer is that, as usual in the making of “constitutional law,” the Constitution …


A Good Idea Stretched Too Far: Amending The General Aviation Revitalization Act To Mitigate Unintended Inequities, Kerry V. Kovarik Jan 2008

A Good Idea Stretched Too Far: Amending The General Aviation Revitalization Act To Mitigate Unintended Inequities, Kerry V. Kovarik

Seattle University Law Review

This Comment will examine the congressional intent that shaped GARA, evaluate the equitable implications of the statute's drafting language, discuss its significant judicial interpretations, and explore the author's recommendations aimed at minimizing GARA's inequities without negating its positive aspects. Part II begins with an analysis of GARA's legislative history, identifies stakeholders and their arguments, and examines issues given insufficient consideration by Congress. Part III assesses how GARA actually affected the aviation market when compared to the stakeholders' predictions. Part IV will survey a selection of important judicial decisions interpreting GARA. Finally, Part V evaluates the inequities created by the statute …


Misuse And Abuse Of Morse V. Frederick By Lower Courts: Sretching The High Court's Ruling Too Far To Censor Student Expression, Clay Calvert Jan 2008

Misuse And Abuse Of Morse V. Frederick By Lower Courts: Sretching The High Court's Ruling Too Far To Censor Student Expression, Clay Calvert

Seattle University Law Review

This Article argues that the Fourth Amendment protects confidential attorney-client communications from unreasonable government intrusion, including unreasonable court orders compelling production of attorney-client communications. The Article begins by focusing on the elements of a claim under the Fourth Amendment. Part II identifies the elements and subsequent sections address each element in the context of attorney-client communications. Part III considers the legitimate expectation of privacy in confidential attorney-client communications. Part IV addresses the search and seizure requirement, explores authority distinguishing between "actual" and "constructive" searches, and concludes that, in addition to searches, court-ordered production of attorney-client communications (a "constructive" search and …


Deception In Undercover Investigations: Conduct-Based Vs. Status-Based Ethical Analysis, Barry R. Temkin Jan 2008

Deception In Undercover Investigations: Conduct-Based Vs. Status-Based Ethical Analysis, Barry R. Temkin

Seattle University Law Review

As part of the public school system, online schools “have a responsibility to provide equal access to [their] educational opportunities[,] and restricting access to these opportunities can be problematic, if not illegal.” Given the rapid growth of online education in Washington, legislators must examine whether online schools that receive public education funding are benefiting the entire public or are benefiting merely a select group of students. Part II of this Comment briefly discusses the history of online schools in Washington, including how they receive funding within Washington's unique statutory and regulatory framework. Part III then examines how online schools discriminate …

Reactions of 2-vinylpyridine with the triruthenium complexes [Ru3(CO)12] and [Ru3(CO)10(μ-dppm)] leads to a previously unknown double carbon−hydrogen bond activation of the β-carbon of the vinyl group to afford the pentaruthenium and triruthenium complexes [Ru5(CO)14(μ4-C5H4CH═C)(μ-H)2] (1) and [Ru3Cl(CO)5(μ-CO)(μ-dppm)(μ3-NC5H4CH═C)(μ-H)] (2), respectively. Crystal structures reveal two different forms of bridging of the dimetalated 2-vinylpyridyl ligand, capping a square face in 1 and a triangular face in 2.


How To Write, Edit, And Review Persuasive Briefs: Seven Guidelines From One Judge And Two Lawyers, Judge Stephen J. Dwyer, Leonard J. Feldman, Ryan Mcbride Jan 2008

How To Write, Edit, And Review Persuasive Briefs: Seven Guidelines From One Judge And Two Lawyers, Judge Stephen J. Dwyer, Leonard J. Feldman, Ryan Mcbride

Seattle University Law Review

The ability to write and recognize a persuasive brief is important to lawyers throughout their careers. Junior attorneys are often responsible for initially writing a brief. Senior attorneys often review those briefs and either rewrite or edit them (as circumstances require). In-house counsel may then review the briefs once more, providing additional edits and comments and addressing concerns. Wherever you happen to be in your career, it is important to know how to write, rewrite, edit, recognize, and review an effective brief. This Article offers a number of guidelines for crafting such briefs and provides a number of practical pointers …


Constitutional Limitations On The Ability Of States To Rehabilitate Their Failed Electric Utility Restructuring Plans, James M. Van Nostrand Jan 2008

Constitutional Limitations On The Ability Of States To Rehabilitate Their Failed Electric Utility Restructuring Plans, James M. Van Nostrand

Seattle University Law Review

This Article will review the constitutional limitations that come into play when a state seeks to rehabilitate its failed electric utility restructuring plan. Under the Constitution, utilities are entitled to earn a reasonable return on the assets devoted to public service. A situation in which retail rates are frozen may result in denial of a compensatory return if the electric utility is incurring higher costs to generate or procure its power supply. This is the traditional "takings" argument based on the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution, as applied to the states under the Fourteenth Amendment. Apart from this commonly asserted …


Back To The Future? The Potential Revival Of Territoriality, Reuven S. Avi-Yonah Jan 2008

Back To The Future? The Potential Revival Of Territoriality, Reuven S. Avi-Yonah

Articles

Since 1994, the trend in the United States and other developed countries appears to be to reduce the scope of residence jurisdiction and increase the emphasis on source jurisdiction. If this trend continues, these countries are likely to move toward territoriality and decrease the emphasis on their CFC rules. In the author’s opinion, the reason for this trend is political and economic, not legal. It is part of tax competition, specifically the competition to be the headquarters jurisdiction for multinationals. The author also thinks, however, that it is not necessary to go down this road because the solution to the …


Maximal Evenness As Conceptual Apparatus For A Course On Post-Tonal Theory And Analysis, Adam Ricci Jan 2008

Maximal Evenness As Conceptual Apparatus For A Course On Post-Tonal Theory And Analysis, Adam Ricci

Journal of Music Theory Pedagogy

"Music Theory's New Pedagogability," Richard Cohn observes that as recently as 25 years ago "the boundary between research and teaching at the introductory levels seemed inevitable and unbreachable...[and that]...we are at a somewhat different juncture now. A number of central concepts have emerged...that can be taught at the introductory level" (Cohn 1998, [3]). Among the central concepts that he mentions is Clough and Douthett's concept of maximal evenness. A maximally even set "is a set whose elements are distributed as evenly as possible around the chromatic circle" (Clough and Douthett 1991, 96). Each maximally even set is labeled ME(c,d), where …

Ambivalence About Social Welfare : An Evaluation Of Measurement Approaches., Jason Gainous Jan 2008

Ambivalence About Social Welfare : An Evaluation Of Measurement Approaches., Jason Gainous

Faculty and Staff Scholarship

Research across disciplines, including political science, has embraced the idea that individuals often possess ambivalent attitudes, but there is considerable disagreement about how to measure ambivalence. Determining an effective way of capturing such phenomena is important to our understanding of politics and public opinion. The literature offers several meta-attitudinal and operative measures of ambivalence. I discuss strengths and weaknesses of each of these approaches and conduct a test of the relative construct validity of two meta-attitudinal and two operative measures of social welfare ambivalence using data from a statewide survey of Florida residents in 2004. The findings suggest that one …
