Professionalism And Matthew Shardlake, Alex B. Long Jan 2012

Professionalism And Matthew Shardlake, Alex B. Long

Scholarly Works

This Essay/Book Review examines the Matthew Shardlake series by C.J. Sansom. In particular, it examines the question of whether the sixteenth-century fictional lawyer Shardlake can serve as a role model for twenty-first-century lawyers, both in terms of his ethics and his professionalism. An examination of the Shardlake series as a whole yields some uncertain answers, both as to Shardlake and as to what it means to be an ethical and professional lawyer. This is ultimately part of what makes the series so enjoyable for lawyers.


Triaging Appointed-Counsel Funding And Pro Se Access To Justice, Benjamin H. Barton Jan 2012

Triaging Appointed-Counsel Funding And Pro Se Access To Justice, Benjamin H. Barton

Scholarly Works

For decades, scholars and advocates have lauded Gideon’s guarantee of appointed counsel in criminal cases and sought to extend it into a civil-Gideon right in a range of civil cases. This past Term, the Supreme Court disappointed the civil-Gideon movement in Turner v. Rogers, unanimously rejecting an across-the-board right to counsel while encouraging reforms to make courts more accessible to pro se litigants. Turner is mostly right, we argue, because funding limitations require reserving counsel mostly for criminal cases, where they are needed most. For the first time, the Court recognized that lawyers can make cases not only slower and …

Derrick Bell’S Community-Based Classroom, Joy Radice Jan 2012

Derrick Bell’S Community-Based Classroom, Joy Radice

Scholarly Works

In Derrick Bell’s Community-based Classroom, I argue that Derrick Bell enhanced his participatory pedagogical approach to teaching constitutional law by intentionally creating community within the law school classroom — a community that humanized the students’ educational experience. This essay explores three ways in which he created community: through his participatory, student-centered course structure; his social classroom environment; and his interactive self-assessments. Over the past few years, legal education has come under indictment in the media for not adequately training lawyers for practice. Bell’s community-based classroom responds to this indictment, fusing both theory and practice in teaching doctrinal constitutional law courses …

The "Independent" Sector: Fee-For-Service Charity And The Limits Of Autonomy, Lloyd H. Mayer Jan 2012

The "Independent" Sector: Fee-For-Service Charity And The Limits Of Autonomy, Lloyd H. Mayer

Vanderbilt Law Review

Although numerous scholars have attempted to explain and justify the benefits provided to charities, none has been completely successful. Their theories share, however, two required characteristics for charities. First, charities must be distinct from other types of entities in society, including governmental bodies, businesses, other types of nonprofit organizations, and informal entities such as families. Second, charities must provide some form of public benefit. Focusing on these common characteristics reveals a previously not fully appreciated role for the laws governing charities: protecting charities from influences that could potentially undermine these traits. Applying this new "autonomy perspective" to the law governing …


Predictors Of Treatment Outcome For Contingency Management Of Stimulant Abstinence In Severely Mentally Ill Outpatients, Frank Albert Nowland Angelo Jan 2012

Predictors Of Treatment Outcome For Contingency Management Of Stimulant Abstinence In Severely Mentally Ill Outpatients, Frank Albert Nowland Angelo

Theses Digitization Project

This study will investigate the impact of client variables on in-treatment performance, in a contingency management intervention. Co-occurring disorders (COD) is a prolific problem with the severely mentally ill (SMI) population. People with both severe mental illness and substance abuse disorder suffer greater negative consequences of drug use than do populations with only one of these issues. This can be seen in greater levels of psychiatric symptoms, higher levels of interpersonal violence, and increased homelessness. Drug use has been found to exacerbate psychotic symptoms and relapses in schizophrenic patients, when compared to schizophrenic persons without drug use.

The Cost Of Justice: Weighing The Costs Of Fair And Effective Resolution To Legal Problems, Canadian Forum On Civil Justice Jan 2012

The Cost Of Justice: Weighing The Costs Of Fair And Effective Resolution To Legal Problems, Canadian Forum On Civil Justice

Canadian Forum on Civil Justice

There is a growing belief that our civil and family justice system2 is in crisis. Evidence is mounting that the public cannot afford to resolve their legal problems through the formal processes of our courts, and it is unclear whether they are accessing other civil justice system services to reach resolution or whether their legal problems remain unresolved. This is a vital concern not only for the individuals who are unable to pursue their claims, but also for the health, economic, and social well-being of all Canadians. There is increasing evidence that unresolved disputes have a significant negative impact on …
