Note – Toward Effective Access To Justice In Haiti: Eliminating The Medical Certificate Requirement In Rape Prosecution, Shannon D. Lankenau Aug 2013

Note – Toward Effective Access To Justice In Haiti: Eliminating The Medical Certificate Requirement In Rape Prosecution, Shannon D. Lankenau

UC Law Journal

In Haiti, the overwhelming majority of rapes go unpunished. To date, the Haitian government has failed to promulgate a working legal framework in which it can effectively prosecute crimes of sexual violence. Women, in particular, are disproportionately burdened by these inadequacies. This Note explores one of the most problematic aspects of the current legal system: the de facto requirement that a woman obtain a medical certificate to corroborate her claim of rape. Although not mandated by Haitian law, medical certificates are regarded as the foundation of any prosecution because deficient investigations often fail to produce any additional evidence for use …

"Talking It Over" With Hillary: Domestic And Global Advocacy, 1995-2000, Melody Joy Lehn Jul 2013

"Talking It Over" With Hillary: Domestic And Global Advocacy, 1995-2000, Melody Joy Lehn

Electronic Theses and Dissertations Archive

In July of 1995, first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton’s first “Talking It Over” column premiered in newspapers across the country and the globe. Creators Syndicate in Los Angeles, which produced and circulated this weekly syndicated column, has archived two hundred and ninety-one columns on their website. Dropped and suspended by many publications throughout its duration, “Talking It Over” was a controversial journalistic endeavor for its author, who was simultaneously accused of writing in a fashion that was “too political” and “not political enough.” Consequently, the existing scholarly appraisals of “Talking It Over” depict this column as being either incidental or …

Exploring The Emerging Economy Context: Smes And Social Capital In Brazil, Ruth Clarke, Ramdas Chandra, Marcilio Machado Jul 2013

Exploring The Emerging Economy Context: Smes And Social Capital In Brazil, Ruth Clarke, Ramdas Chandra, Marcilio Machado

HCBE Faculty Presentations

This exploratory, empirical study reports on social capital in a commodity-based industry in an emerging market context. We examine whether Brazilian entrepreneurs and SMEs in the Stone industry experience contextual normative pressure sufficient to retard or promote the growth of social capital. Further we link social capital development to internationalization and performance. We find that there is a lack of social capital development and propose that this is related to the country context of Brazil and the stage of development along the industry value chain. We begin to answer the question, essentially, are the benefits of social capital universally implementable …


The Hypothetical Negotiation And Reasonable Royalty Damages: The Tail Wagging The Dog, Michael J. Chapman, John C. Jarosz Jul 2013

The Hypothetical Negotiation And Reasonable Royalty Damages: The Tail Wagging The Dog, Michael J. Chapman, John C. Jarosz

Stanford Technology Law Review

Reasonable royalty damages are the dominant form of relief awarded in patent infringement cases and are often at the heart of assertions that the patent protection system is out of control. The primary tool used to assess royalty damages is the hypothetical negotiation construct arising from the seminal Georgia-Pacific Corporation v. United States Plywood Corporation decision in 1970. The construct provides that a reasonable royalty should be determined by hypothesizing an imaginary negotiation between a patent holder and an infringer over use of a patented invention at the time of first infringement. This article examines the wisdom of such heavy …

Significant But Unheralded Growth Of Large Externship Programs, James H. Backman, Cory S. Clements Jul 2013

Significant But Unheralded Growth Of Large Externship Programs, James H. Backman, Cory S. Clements

Brigham Young University Journal of Public Law

Law schools have offered student externships for several decades. The number of participating students has fluctuated over time. At first, more law students participated in externships than in in-house clinics, but that changed in the 1980s and remained consistent for many years. Starting in the early- to mid-1990s, externship enrollment surpassed in-house-clinic participation again and has continued to increase in the past decade, each year widening the gap between these two primary forms of practice-based experiential learning. Today, externships have never been more important as a means of providing practical legal education to the current generation of law students.

The Evolution Of A National Response To Violence Against Women, Robin R. Runge Jul 2013

The Evolution Of A National Response To Violence Against Women, Robin R. Runge

UC Law SF Journal on Gender and Justice

The Violence Against Women Act has a long and important history. VAWA has had a profound impact on the way the legal system defines,identifies, and responds to violence against women. In these remarks, based on Ms. Runge's extensive professional history working on VAWA and related legal issues, she examines the remaining shortcomings of VAWA and praises the progress achieved since the first VAWA was passed in 1994 to the most recent reauthorization in 2013.


Amicus Curiea Brief: Stormans, Inc. V. Selecky, Sarah L. Ainsworth Jul 2013

Amicus Curiea Brief: Stormans, Inc. V. Selecky, Sarah L. Ainsworth

UC Law SF Journal on Gender and Justice

Preventing pregnancy after sexual assault and violence is critical to a woman's psychological recovery and physical health. Emergency contraception works effectively to prevent pregnancy, and is the medical standard of care for treating women and girls of reproductive age after a sexual assault. While pregnancies pose health risks for every woman, rape-related pregnancies hold profound consequences including compounded trauma and an increased vulnerability to violence. In this brief, amici urge the Ninth Circuit to recognize the importance of access to emergency contraception for all women, and its critical nature for rape and domestic violence survivors.
