Applying Additional Self Service Methodologies To Commercial Aviation Baggage Handling: Is A Potential “Win-Win” Being Left On The Table?, Derrick Denny

Theses and Dissertations

This project looks at the possibility that airlines are overlooking an opportunity to save money and at the same time provide a better service to their customers. On certain regional-jet flights, airlines handle carry-on baggage in a way that avoids many of the pitfalls that drive mishandled baggage claims on other flights. This paper investigates the feasibility of using this very reliable carry-on bag system for all bags (checked and carry-on) on all passenger flights, thus potentially enabling commercial airlines to provide a more reliable service that customers prefer. Since the system, in this paper deemed the “pink-tag system”, involves …

Lawyers Acting Badly, Or Not? Misconduct In Ip Litigation: Recent Examples And The Questions They Raise, Lisa Dolak

College of Law - Faculty Scholarship

Misconduct in civil litigation is not a new phenomenon. Nor is it confined to particular types of cases. Because of their characteristic intensity. however, intellectual property cases may be more likely to inspire bad behavior than other types of cases. The associated pressures seem, on occasion, to lead litigants and trial lawyers to succumb to the temptation to step outside the bounds of vigorous advocacy.

Trial and appellate judges in a number of recent IP cases have wrestled with the issue of whether certain litigation tactics crossed the line between advocacy and abuse. For example, trial judges have recently rebuked …

Assessment Of Legal Information Needs And Access Problems Of Lawyers In Uganda, Innocent Tuhumwire, C. Okello-Obura

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

Access to the right kind of legal information is imperative for efficient and effective performance in any judicial process. This study investigated the legal information needs and problems faced by lawyers (as main consumers of legal information) in accessing legal information. The study used a survey design in which a structured questionnaire was used to elicit the required data. It was carried out in Kampala, the capital city of Uganda. The study found that law reference; laws of other countries; law reports; update of court rules and judge cases constitute the most needed legal information of lawyers and attorneys in …

Foreword, Rodney Uphoff

Missouri Law Review

Even though almost everyone concedes that the caseload crisis in Missouri is real, the dire state budget situation makes a significant infusion of new resources virtually impossible. So if Missouri, like most other states, is truly broke, then realistically can the state find the funds needed to fix its broken indigent defense system? That was the question at the heart of the Symposium. The Symposium presenters and commentators, most of whom had worked at some point in their career as a public defender, brought a wealth of experience to the discussion. While the presentations and comments made that day, together …

Raising The Bar: Standards-Based Training, Supervision, And Evaluation, Adele Bernhard

Missouri Law Review

In this short Article, I sketch the methodology my colleagues and I at Pace Law School use to incorporate practice standards into our clinical teaching and reflect on how a standards-based teaching paradigm could be adapted to the training, supervision, and evaluation of public defenders. Then, I briefly consider how standards and standards-based teaching assist in the administration of assigned counsel plans and in the evaluation of the performance of public defender organizations. Although this Article does not cover any of these topics in depth, my goal is to introduce the reader to a standards-based approach to teaching and suggest …

Precedents In Investor State Arbitration, Akshay Kolse Patil

Indian Journal of International Economic Law

While admittedly there is no rule of stare decisis (binding precedent) in international law or investor state arbitration, increasing number of tribunals refer to “precedents”. This trend has led many to ask if there is a system of binding precedent in investor state arbitration. This paper seeks to answer this question with a qualified affirmation – though there is no strict rule of binding precedent in international investment law, previous decisions do have a limited but powerful precedential value. While previous decisions are not binding, they provide guidance and may influence future tribunals in their decision making. The current regime …

State Constitutional Challenges To Indigent Defense Systems, Stephen F. Hanlon

Missouri Law Review

For many years, the primary vehicle that advocates used to protect the fundamental right of the accused to the effective assistance of counsel was the Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution, as incorporated to the states by the Fourteenth Amendment. For some time, most obviously during the Warren Court years, this federal strategy proved fruitful; indeed, it resulted in a series of landmark decisions by the United States Supreme Court that impact indigent defense systems to this day. A subsequent sea change in the Court's jurisprudence, however, which placed great emphasis on federalism, particularly the doctrines of justiciability and …

Roadway Related Tort Liability And Risk Management, Kenneth R. Agent

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

This workbook provides government employees background information related to tort liability and risk management. Past experience with lawsuits against government entities are summarized. The reasons for the lawsuits and results are analyzed. The objective is to provide an understanding of the basis for past claims so the number of future claims and awards can be reduced.
