Intellectual Property Law Gets Experienced, Victoria Phillips Jan 2018

Intellectual Property Law Gets Experienced, Victoria Phillips

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

Introduction: A decade ago, in Clinical Legal Education and the Public Interest in Intellectual Property Law, I described with my faculty colleagues our motivations for launching a public interest intellectual property law clinic at the American University Washington College of Law. That article introduced our goals and framework for a pioneering clinic framed around a variety of live-client student representations performed under close faculty supervision, weekly case rounds focusing on issues experienced directly by the students in their representations, and a seminar built around a year-long lawyering simulation addressing the public interest dimensions of intellectual property. In that article, we …

Teachers' Lived Experiences Of A Positive Intervention On Emotional Behavior Disorder Students, Leslie Deann Williams-Britt Jan 2018

Teachers' Lived Experiences Of A Positive Intervention On Emotional Behavior Disorder Students, Leslie Deann Williams-Britt

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

Champions for Change Mentorship Program (CFCMP) was implemented to address the academic and social struggles of emotional behavior disorder (EBD) students. The problem was that although the passing of the California Assembly Bill 1729, called the Other Means of Correction law, had prompted a greater need for positive behavior intervention support at Tier 2 and Tier 3 levels, implementation of the CFCMP continued to generate serious concerns involving students with behavior issues. The conceptual framework for this study is Bandura's social learning theory which guided CFCMP to incorporate cognitive and observational learning to develop academically and socially sound students with …

Articles

Scientific evidence indisputably demonstrates that lead poisoning causes permanent neurological damage and numerous co-morbidities for children and adults. Exposure to lead hazards irreversibly harms individuals and, left unchecked, can devastate communities into the future. In recognition of these threats, the President's Task Force on Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks to Children (Task Force) was established by Executive Order in 1997. The original Task Force created the first coordinated federal response to eliminate childhood lead poisoning in the United States and set an ambitious ten-year timeline to achieve its goals of prevention, treatment, research, and progress management. However, the most …

We're Not In Beersheba Anymore: Discussing Contemporary Challenges In The Law Of Armed Conflict With 120 International Lawyers, Sharon Afek Jan 2018

We're Not In Beersheba Anymore: Discussing Contemporary Challenges In The Law Of Armed Conflict With 120 International Lawyers, Sharon Afek

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

This first-hand account encapsulates the nature of the Battle of Beersheba. It saw uniformed soldiers fight other uniformed soldiers from an organized and hierarchical military. The battle took place in the open terrain of the desert. There was a clear frontline, entirely separate from the civilian life in the nearby town of Beersheba. The battle, and the wider war of which it was a part, was clearly delineated in its start and end. The Battle of Beersheba enabled the Allied forces to break the Ottoman line and advance northwards, eventually beating out the Ottoman Empire and permanently changing the geopolitical …

Access To Consumer Bankruptcy, Pamela Foohey Jan 2018

Access To Consumer Bankruptcy, Pamela Foohey

Emory Bankruptcy Developments Journal

In this Essay, Professor Pamela Foohey of the Indiana University Maurer School of Law, examines the state of access to justice in the context of consumer bankruptcy. As with the use of any legal remedy, before turning to bankruptcy, people first must recognize the relevancy of law, the legal system, and bankruptcy to help solve their financial problems. This aspect of access to bankruptcy is the least researched, despite being critical to the ultimate delivery of bankruptcy's 'fresh start.' This piece explores some of the complex causes of the relative dearth of consumer bankruptcy filings by examining CFPB records and …

Reducing The Emergency Room Revolving Door Syndrome For The Poor, Uninsured And Chronically Ill Patient: Pilot Recommendations From A Process Improvement Evaluation, Stephanie Fassu Noulaheu

Yale School of Nursing Digital Theses

CONTEXT: My Health LA (MHLA) is a Los Angeles County program that allows residents who are poor, without medical insurance (due to unaffordability and/or illegal immigration status), and without a primary care provider (un-empaneled) to enroll with an affiliated primary care clinic and receive free healthcare – related services.1 Despite the launch of this initiative in October 2014, 35 percent of MHLA enrollees did not follow-up with a primary care clinic and 15 percent of their emergency department (ED) visits were considered avoidable in fiscal year 2015-2016. OJECTIVE: In light of these findings, the MHLA enrollment pathway was evaluated at …

Does Adr’S “Access To Justice” Come At The Expense Of Meaningful Consent?, Jacqueline Nolan-Haley Jan 2018

Does Adr’S “Access To Justice” Come At The Expense Of Meaningful Consent?, Jacqueline Nolan-Haley

Faculty Scholarship

Over the last forty years, ADR processes, in particular mediation and arbitration, have been advanced as vehicles to secure access to justice for individual litigants and to improve efficiency in overburdened court systems. These processes have functioned as alternatives to the court adjudication of disputes, complementing the judicial system, and operating in what has been famously described as “the shadow of the law. The primary benefits promised by ADR were party autonomy and empowerment. ADR processes would allow parties to “fit the forum to the fuss.” These processes would give parties the opportunity to create their own mosaic of justice, …

Survivors' Experiences Of Pet Abuse Within The Cycle Of Domestic Violence, Taylor Chastain Johnson Jan 2018

Survivors' Experiences Of Pet Abuse Within The Cycle Of Domestic Violence, Taylor Chastain Johnson

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

Domestic violence is a pervasive issue that impacts all members of a household, including pets. There is comprehensive quantitative evidence to suggest that domestic violence and pet abuse commonly co-occur; however, as the personal accounts of pet-owning survivors have started to emerge through qualitative investigation, more research is needed to understand the unique experiences of pet abuse that take place alongside instances of domestic violence. This phenomenological investigation utilized control balance theory and a feminist framework to uncover the experiences of survivors who entered their pets into an animal care program specifically designed to help during times of domestic violence …

"Strategies For Inclusive And Responsive Police Accountability", Lonzale Ramsey (Sr.) Jan 2018

"Strategies For Inclusive And Responsive Police Accountability", Lonzale Ramsey (Sr.)

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

In the United States of America today, there are concerns regarding the appropriate functioning of the police service and a lack of effective police accountability. African Americans have often been victims of unprofessional police conduct; however, their views have rarely been found adequately represented in the literature on the subject. The purpose of this case study was to fill this identified gap in the academic literature. A conceptual framework composed of the afrocentric, environmental contingency, and conflict theories was used to guide and inform this inquiry. The main research question focused on discovering which form of police oversight is seen …

Changing Times, Changing Relationships For The Bench And Civil Bar, Paula Hannaford-Agor Jan 2018

Changing Times, Changing Relationships For The Bench And Civil Bar, Paula Hannaford-Agor

Faculty Publications

For the past century, the interests of the bench and bar in delivering justice to civil litigants were closely aligned. As civil litigants’ needs change, courts recognize they must lead the way on civil justice reforms both for their own sake and to encourage productive change in civil legal practice.

Sanctuary Networks And Integrative Enforcement, Ming Hsu Chen Jan 2018

Sanctuary Networks And Integrative Enforcement, Ming Hsu Chen

Publications

My intended focus is on the widespread response--in cities, churches, campuses, and corporations that together comprise "sanctuary networks"--to the Trump Administration's Executive Order 13768 Enhancing Public Safety in the Interior of the United States as an instance of the changing relationship between federal, local, and private organizations in the regulation of immigration. After briefly covering the legal background of the Trump Interior E.O., the focus of the Article shifts to the institutional dynamics arising in communities. These institutional dynamics exemplify the beginnings of a reimagined immigration enforcement policy with a more integrative flavor.

Seeking Justice: Mobilizing The South Asian Community In The Face Of Sexual Assault, Sagarika Gami Jan 2018

Seeking Justice: Mobilizing The South Asian Community In The Face Of Sexual Assault, Sagarika Gami

Pomona Senior Theses

This thesis looks at how the rule of law fails to achieve justice for Indian-American survivors of domestic violence in a multitude of ways, corresponding to class and religious positionality, as well as documentation status, and how the Indian community mobilizes in response to these failures by creating alternative modes of justice for survivors. Historically, these alternatives have taken form as direct service organizations, providing culturally and linguistically accessible services to survivors. I contend that these are helpful on an individual level, working to interrupt cycles of violence, but not at the collective level – stopping these cycles altogether. Given …
