In New York Times Co. V. Sullivan, The Supreme Court Got It Right Then- And Now, David G. Savage
In New York Times Co. V. Sullivan, The Supreme Court Got It Right Then- And Now, David G. Savage
Georgia Law Review
On April 5, 1960, Ray Jenkins, a city editor for the Alabama Journal,the afternoon paper in Montgomery, was having lunch at his desk and skimming through the old papers that had piled up. They included a week-old copy of the New York Times. He spotted an item that had a local angle, and he wrote a thirteen-paragraph story for that day's paper. "Sixty prominent liberals, including [former First Lady] Eleanor Roosevelt, have signed a full page advertisement in the New York Times appealing for contributions to 'The Committee to Defend Martin Luther King and the Struggle for Freedom in the …
The Rule-Of-Law Underpinnings Of Endangered Species Protection: Minister Of Fisheries And Oceans V. David Suzuki Foundation, 2012 Fca 40, Jocelyn Stacey
The Rule-Of-Law Underpinnings Of Endangered Species Protection: Minister Of Fisheries And Oceans V. David Suzuki Foundation, 2012 Fca 40, Jocelyn Stacey
All Faculty Publications
Environmental organizations have experienced a string of recent courtroom successes enforcing the federal Species At Risk Act. This case comment examines one of these cases, Minister of Fisheries and Oceans v. David Suzuki Foundation (“Killer Whales”), to expose the rule-of-law underpinnings of the Federal Court of Appeal’s decision. It argues that, while the decision is on its face an ostensible victory for endangered species protection, the conception of the rule of law on which the court relies is incapable of providing meaningful legal constraints for much environmental decision-making.
Liberty Without Capacity: Why States Should Ban Adolescent Driving, Vivian E. Hamilton
Liberty Without Capacity: Why States Should Ban Adolescent Driving, Vivian E. Hamilton
Georgia Law Review
Car crashes kill more teens each year than any other cause, and of the crashes in which they are involved, teens are overwhelmingly at fault. Teens crash at rates far higher than those of older drivers, and the younger the teen driver, the higher the risk-sixteen-year-old drivers have crash rates 250% higher than those of eighteen-year- olds. Driving experience does not explain the difference; younger beginners crash at rates higher than those of older beginners. Instead, younger teens' increased crash risk results primarily from immature regulatory competence. In other words, the capacities required for driving competence are still immature in …

Attention Gun-Rights Advocates! Don't Forget The Illinois Constitutional Right To Keep And Bear Arms, 48 J. Marshall L. Rev. 53 (2014), James Leven

Is Welching On Public Pension Promises An Option For Illinois? An Analysis Of Article Xiii, Section 5 Of Illinois Constitution, 48 J. Marshall L. Rev. 167 (2014), Eric Madiar
UIC Law Review
This Article reviews not only the Pension Clause’s language and origins, but also the constitutional convention debates discussing it, and relevant court decisions construing the provision. The Article also evaluates the arguments made by legal commentators on behalf of particular stakeholders about whether the Clause allows the legislature to cut the pension benefits of current public employees and retirees as well as other related issues. The Article concludes that the General Assembly cannot unilaterally cut the pension benefits of current employees or retirees as a means to reduce the State’s existing pension liabilities based on the Clause’s plain language, the …
Stop Presumptive Transfers: How Forcing Juveniles To Prove They Should Remain In The Juvenile Justice System Is Inconsistent With Roper V. Simmons & Graham V. Florida, 48 J. Marshall L. Rev. 365 (2014), Rachel Fugett
UIC Law Review
Overly expansive juvenile transfer laws are inconsistent with the Court’s reasoning because their primary objective is to transfer juveniles into the adult criminal justice system solely for the purpose of punishing and sentencing them like adults. In so doing, expansive juvenile transfer laws, more often than not, largely ignore a juvenile’s diminished culpability and greater capacity for change.
Are You Recording This: Enforcement Of Police Videotaping Essay, Martina Kitzmueller
Are You Recording This: Enforcement Of Police Videotaping Essay, Martina Kitzmueller
Connecticut Law Review
Increasing numbers of police departments equip officers with dashboard or body cameras. Advances in technology have made it easy for police to create and preserve videos of their citizen encounters. Videos can be important pieces of evidence; they may also serve to document police misconduct or protect officers from false allegations. Yet too often, videos are lost, destroyed, or never made, often depriving criminal defendants of the only objective evidence in a case. When this happens, there is not always a consequence to the prosecution. This Essay explores this problem of enforcement by examining how different states are compelling law …
Symptom-Based Gun Control Symposium Article, Fredrick E. Vars
Symptom-Based Gun Control Symposium Article, Fredrick E. Vars
Connecticut Law Review
People out of touch with reality should not have guns. This Article proposes empowering police officers to take away guns and gun rights from individuals suffering from delusions or hallucinations. This proposal is inspired by the Navy Yard shooting, but is also supported by evidence showing a correlation between these psychotic symptoms and violence. The proposal is constitutional because of this correlation and for other reasons. For example, the motivating principle behind the right to bear arms is selfdefense; a criminal defendant may only invoke self-defense if he “reasonably” feared great bodily harm, and such a fear is not “reasonable” …
The Right To Arms And Standards Of Review: A Tale Of Three Circuits Symposium Article, David T. Hardy
The Right To Arms And Standards Of Review: A Tale Of Three Circuits Symposium Article, David T. Hardy
Connecticut Law Review
In District of Columbia v. Heller and McDonald v. Chicago, the U.S. Supreme Court recognized an individual right to arms. The Court offered limited guidance as to standard of review, only ruling out rational basis. This Article takes a pragmatic approach to the standard of review issue. First, it explores the practical basis for heightened scrutiny. Judicial review is, at its base, anti-majoritarian. It is therefore often appropriate to employ the loose standard of rational basis. In some contexts, however, majoritarianism is less dependable: the majority may be tempted to unfairly burden the interests of the minority. Here, courts properly …
The Soldier Bears The Deepest Wounds And Scars Of War: Mobilizing Connecticut To Implement A Veterans Treatment Court Note, Rosendo Garza, Jr.
The Soldier Bears The Deepest Wounds And Scars Of War: Mobilizing Connecticut To Implement A Veterans Treatment Court Note, Rosendo Garza, Jr.
Connecticut Law Review
The first Veterans Treatment Court (“VTC”) opened in 2004 and aimed to help veterans who ran afoul of the law. These problem-solving courts not only serve to treat the underlying issues many veterans suffer post-military service, but also hold veterans accountable. As a consequence of their incredible results, there are now over one hundred VTCs across the nation. Connecticut has none. This Note urges Connecticut to establish a VTC.
Hands Off Our Fingerprints: State, Local, And Individual Defiance Of Federal Immigration Enforcement, Christine N. Cimini
Hands Off Our Fingerprints: State, Local, And Individual Defiance Of Federal Immigration Enforcement, Christine N. Cimini
Connecticut Law Review
Secure Communities, though little-known outside law-enforcement circles, is one of the most powerful of the federal government’s immigration enforcement programs. Under Secure Communities, fingerprints collected by state and local law enforcement and provided to the Federal Bureau of Investigation for criminal background checks are automatically shared with the Department of Homeland Security, which checks the fingerprints against its immigration database. In the event of a match, an immigration detainer can be issued and an individual held after they would otherwise be entitled to release. Originally designed as a voluntary program in which local governments could choose to participate, the Department …
Mental Illness And The Second Amendment Symposium Article, Clayton E. Cramer
Mental Illness And The Second Amendment Symposium Article, Clayton E. Cramer
Connecticut Law Review
In the past, American laws seldom attempted to regulate the possession of firearms by the mentally ill. This surprising tradition has waned following a recent series of highly-publicized mass murders that were committed by persons who were identifiably mentally ill before the crime occurred. These tragedies have focused attention on the question of how a free society should handle the conflict between the Second Amendment’s “right of the people” and the needs of public safety. This Article examines why mental healthrelated firearm regulations suddenly became necessary, analyzes the attendant conflicts between civil liberties and public safety, and suggests some strategies …
Liability Insurance And Gun Violence Symposium, Peter Kochenburger
Liability Insurance And Gun Violence Symposium, Peter Kochenburger
Connecticut Law Review
Gun violence and mass shootings have dominated headlines during the last several years. These tragedies, including the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, received national and international attention and prompted new demands to address gun violence in the United States. Among the many proposals advanced by the media, advocacy groups, legislators, and academics is mandating liability insurance for all gun owners. Proponents point to insurance’s risk assessment and mitigation functions as providing financial incentives and penalties to encourage policyholders to purchase, store, and use firearms in the safest manner possible, with explicit analogies to mandatory auto insurance, and insurance generally, where …
Regulating Firearms Through Litigation Symposium Article, Patrick Luff
Regulating Firearms Through Litigation Symposium Article, Patrick Luff
Connecticut Law Review
As a result of relatively weak regulation, firearm use leads to massive negative externalities. Efforts to minimize these social costs via legislation have been unsuccessful, which have led individuals and government entities to seek regulation through another avenue: litigation. This use of the courts as a regulatory gap-filler raises vital questions, among which perhaps the most vital is whether courts are effective at performing this role. This Article seeks to answer that question by comparing the courts as an institution with other institutions, such as markets, legislatures, and administrative agencies. I consider a number of factors that can be used …
The Steepness Of The Slippery Slope: Second Amendment Litigation In The Lower Federal Courts And What It Has To Do With Background Recordkeeping Legislation Symposium Article, Michael P. O'Shea
Connecticut Law Review
Proposals for federal gun control have recently focused on expanding background checks and recordkeeping requirements for private firearms transfers. This Article places the debate about such legislation in a fuller context that includes the actions of the executive and judicial branches, as well as current gun control efforts in the states. This enables a more informed appraisal of the anti-slippery slope arguments that motivate opposition to such laws. I examine mechanisms that can make descending the slippery slope more or less likely, focusing on judicial enforcement of the Second Amendment right to arms in the federal courts. A study of …
Civil Liberties And The Indefinite Detention Of U.S. Citizens, Chris Jenks
Civil Liberties And The Indefinite Detention Of U.S. Citizens, Chris Jenks
Faculty Journal Articles and Book Chapters
Section 1021 of the 2012 National Defense Authorization Act provides for the indefinite detention of individuals deemed to be part of or substantially supportive of al Qaeda, the Taliban, and associated forces in hostilities against the United States or its coalition allies. Yet the Congress which drafted Section 1021 doesn’t know what its operative terms mean and the Executive Branch simultaneously claims the provisions are problematic yet meaningless and signs them into law. The result is uncertainty over the Executive Branch’s armed conflict detention authority, not on distant battlefields, but here in the United States. This article focuses on three …
