An Integrated Perspective On The Collateral Consequences Of Criminal Convictions And Reentry Issues Faced By Formerly Incarcerated Individuals, Michael Pinard Jun 2006

An Integrated Perspective On The Collateral Consequences Of Criminal Convictions And Reentry Issues Faced By Formerly Incarcerated Individuals, Michael Pinard

Faculty Scholarship

This article examines the emergent focus on the collateral consequences of criminal convictions and the reentry of formerly incarcerated individuals. Specifically, the article details the ways in which legal scholars, policy analysts, elected officials, legal services organizations and community based organizations have begun to address these components of the criminal justice system. The article argues that these various groups have compartmentalized collateral consequences and reentry by focusing almost exclusively on one component to the exclusion of the other. In doing so, they have narrowed the lens through which to view these components, and have therefore missed opportunities to develop integrated …

The World Trade Law Of Censorship And Internet Filtering, Tim Wu Jun 2006

The World Trade Law Of Censorship And Internet Filtering, Tim Wu

Chicago Journal of International Law

In Section I of this Article, I provide an introduction to regulation and problems of trade in services and illustrate how the basic GATS framework extends to cover regulation of Internet services. Section II discusses two short studies that highlight these problems of trade in information services. China, one of the world's most comprehensive Internet regulators, makes for an interesting case because as a condition to accession to the WTO, it agreed to what have been called "radical" reforms of its service practices. Yet at the same time, China is among the world's more active filterers of Internet services. As …

Introduction: Equal Access To Justice In Utah, Scott M. Matheson Jr. Jun 2006

Introduction: Equal Access To Justice In Utah, Scott M. Matheson Jr.

Utah Law Review

This symposium issue of the Utah Law Review is historically significant for several reasons. First, Utah has a rich and interesting history of access to justice, some of which is recounted in the following articles. Second, the University of Utah S.J. Quinney College of Law and more recently the J. Reuben Clark Law School at Brigham Young University have played important roles in that history. Third, and finally, this issue is the most extensive academic account of access to justice in Utah. We hope it is informative and helps point the way to improve access to justice in the future.


Equal Justice From A New Perspective: The Need For A First-Year Clinical Course On Public Interest Mediation, David Dominguez Jun 2006

Equal Justice From A New Perspective: The Need For A First-Year Clinical Course On Public Interest Mediation, David Dominguez

Utah Law Review

It really is possible to deliver enough no-cost or low-cost legal problem solving services to provide equal justice. To get there, however, we need to experiment with new strategies and methods to achieve the goal, including the new skill of PIM. My hunch is that if first-year law students can prove to themselves in a clinical setting that public service lawyering can produce a multiplier effect for the greater public good, a new commitment to equal justice will emerge in the legal profession.


The Effects Of Alternative Dispute Resolution On Access To Justice In Utah, James R. Holbrook Jun 2006

The Effects Of Alternative Dispute Resolution On Access To Justice In Utah, James R. Holbrook

Utah Law Review

Thousands of cases are resolved every year in Utah by private and court sponsored mediation and other ADR programs, and ADR utilization trends are moving up every year. Since 1990, over 3600 lawyers and non-lawyers have received mediator training in Utah. Clearly, ADR has a growing positive impact on access to justice in this state. However, it is just as clear that ADR by itself does not satisfy the huge and growing unmet needs of moderate-income, low-income, and poor people for dispute resolution services in this state.


Undermining Justice: The Legal Profession's Role In Restricting Access To Legal Representation, Robert R. Keuhn Jun 2006

Undermining Justice: The Legal Profession's Role In Restricting Access To Legal Representation, Robert R. Keuhn

Utah Law Review

The legal profession must cease to be an accomplice in efforts to provide "liberty and justice for some." The profession cannot paradoxically proclaim its commitment to access to legal representation and yet subvert that very goal by imposing restrictions on unpopular clients or types of legal services. If the principles of the legal profession mean anything, then all lawyers, courts, and bar organizations need to fight to ensure access to justice is truly equal and without restrictions.


Justice Will Prevail (With A Little Help From Her Friends): Pro Bono In Utah, Steven B. Scudder Jun 2006

Justice Will Prevail (With A Little Help From Her Friends): Pro Bono In Utah, Steven B. Scudder

Utah Law Review

The Utah State Bar wants more lawyers to work for free. The state's 7,000 lawyers are encouraged to perform fifty hours of free, or pro bono, work each year, but fewer than a third are reporting it when they annually renew licenses. "It's not discouraging, but it's not encouraging," said Brooke Bruno, the bar's pro bono coordinator. The state bar this fall will create a committee, the Utah Access to Justice Council, to study free legal work as well as other issues. "We want to better define the role of pro bono work," bar spokesman Toby Brown said. The American …


Access To Justice In Utah: Time For A Comprehensive Plan, Linda F. Smith Jun 2006

Access To Justice In Utah: Time For A Comprehensive Plan, Linda F. Smith

Utah Law Review

This Article argues that an ongoing state planning process should be established to ensure all residents have access to justice in all forums. Many states have established such planning processes and structures that allow courts, bar associations, publicly funded staff programs, other charitable entities, and the branches of government to engage in coordinated design, assessment, and enhancement of legal services for the public. Although much good work is underway in Utah, the lack of coordination and candid assessment mean that many needy Utahns are not served and many services are not available. It is time for an honest study of …

What Happened On Deliberation Day?, Cass R. Sunstein, David Schkade, Reid Hastie Jun 2006

What Happened On Deliberation Day?, Cass R. Sunstein, David Schkade, Reid Hastie

Coase-Sandor Institute for Law & Economics Research Paper Series

What are the effects of deliberation about political issues? This essay reports the results of a kind of Deliberation Day, involving sixty-three citizens in Colorado. Groups from Boulder, a predominantly liberal city, met and discussed global warming, affirmative action, and civil unions for same-sex couples; groups from Colorado Springs, a predominately conservative city, met to discuss the same issues. The major effect of deliberation was to make group members more extreme than they were when they started to talk. Liberals became more liberal on all three issues; conservatives became more conservative. As a result, the division between the citizens of …
