Six Clicks Of Separation: The Legal Ramifications Of Employers Using Social Networking Sites To Research Applicants, Ian Byrnside

Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law

As social networking sites like Facebook.com and MySpace.com continue to grow in popularity, college students and other job applicants voluntarily divulge an increasing amount of personal information on them, often unaware of the potential negative effects it may have on their search for employment. Employers are beginning to take note of this trend and are increasingly using applicants' social networking profiles to supplement traditional application information. Many applicants feel that employers should not base employment decisions on social networking profiles in any way and believe that it is illegal for employers to do so. Yet, it appears that employers that …

Fulfilling Lucy's Legacy: Recognizing Implicit Good-Faith Obligations Within Explicit Job Duties, Emily Gold Waldman

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

Wood v. Lucy, Lady Duff-Gordon is often cited for the principle that every contract contains an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Yet the very source of that decision--the New York Court of Appeals--has been emphatically unwilling to recognize an implied good-faith covenant in the context of employment relationships, given the judicial presumption of employment at will. This essay criticizes the New York Court of Appeals' conclusion that the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing must yield to the presumption of employment at will, and advocates a more balanced approach.

Law And Economic Change During The Short Twentieth Century, John Henry Schlegel

Contributions to Books

Published as Chapter 16 in Cambridge History of Law in America, Volume 3: The Twentieth Century and After (1920–), Michael Grossberg & Christopher Tomlins, eds.

The brief recounting of the American economy in the twenties and thirties raises obvious questions about law and economic change. Economic change is the shift from one enacted, in both senses, understanding of economic life to another, in the case of the short twentieth century, from an associationalist economy to an impatient economy. This chapter explicates this economic change, and interrogates it in order to understand the role of law in its occurrence. Despite the …

Opening The Door: Crowe V. Tull And The Application Of The Colorado Consumer Protection Act To Attorneys, Daniela Ronchetti

University of Colorado Law Review

In Crowe v. Tull, the Colorado Supreme Court held that the Colorado Consumer Protection Act ("CCPA") applies to attorneys. Putting consumers of legal services on par with consumers in other industries, the decision opened a new avenue of recovery in attorney-client disputes. This Note explores the ramifications of Crowe for attorneys and their clients. Specifically, the Note analyzes the elements of a CCPA claim and their interpretation by the courts and argues that in most cases, a client will not be able to successfully pursue a CCPA claim against his or her attorney. Particularly, a client will have difficulty proving …

Effects Of Reputation On The Legal Profession, Fred C. Zacharias

Washington and Lee Law Review

This Article considers how the reputation of lawyers and signaling between lawyers and clients affects the impact of legal ethics rules. Academics who have written about the relationships between lawyers and clients have not adequately considered the influence of reputational signaling on who clients hire and on lawyers' implementation of discretion. These empirical issues are key to a proper analysis of many professional rules and to the approach bar associations should take to matching lawyers and clients. The Article will focus primarily on lawyers' reputations as a proxy for what clients want, or need, to know about their representatives. Part …

Assault Upon The Citadel Of Privity: The Coexistence Of Strict, Privity And Belt V. Oppenheimer, Blend, Harrison & (And) Tate, Inc. Comment., C. John Muller Iv

St. Mary's Law Journal

The practicing attorney must have a complete understanding of legal malpractice liability. Managing this risk can be a precarious responsibility when the law is not clearly defined. This is compounded by the steady erosion of attorney-client privity barriers making it easier for third party non-clients to sue lawyers for legal malpractice. This is the current state of matters in Texas since the Texas Supreme Court decided Belt v. Oppenheimer, Blend, Harrison & Tate, Inc. on May 5, 2006. The Belt court determined personal representatives of an estate may bring a malpractice claim against the decedent’s attorneys. The Belt court was …

Faith In Action: Religious Accessory Uses And Land Use Regulation, Shelley Ross Saxer, Scott D. Hansen

Utah Law Review

For religious groups, faith in practice often consists of much more than formal worship. While religious institutions have traditionally provided places, such as churches and synagogues, for congregants to worship together in religious exercise, worshipping together is not necessarily the only function served by religious institutions. Institutions may also seek to provide individuals with spiritual nourishment that can include education, recreation, and the opportunity to serve others by providing social services for the poor and needy. Problems arise when communities have accepted houses of worship into their neighborhoods and these same religious institutions decide to expand their activities beyond worship …

Saving Homes In Bankruptcy: Housing Affordability And Loan Modificatio, John Eggum

Utah Law Review

The record number of foreclosures in 2007 and 2008 is threatening homeownership as a fundamental institution of American middle-class life. The inability of millions of families to afford; the strain housing costs place on th~ir incomes is a driving factor in the foreclosUre crisis. While chapter 13 bankruptcy offers families the opportunity to repay arrearages on their mortgage loans in a repayment plan, this relief does not address the ongoing struggle with loan affordability that resulted from the loose underwriting standards and nontraditional loan products that characterized the mortgage market in the last several years. The Mortgage Study data show …
