The Intersection Of The Rule In Yerkey V Jones And Contemporary Anti-Discrimination Law In Australia – Can The ‘Special Wives’ Equity Survive?, Kenneth Yin, Mostafa M. Naser

Research outputs 2022 to 2026

The High Court in Yerkey v Jones considered the enforceability of a guarantee provided by a married woman to secure her husband’s debts. Dixon J said that although the relationship of husband and wife did not give rise to a presumption of undue influence, the law had never been divested completely of ‘the equitable presumption of an invalidating tendency’. Dixon J’s formulation was essentially adopted by the majority justices in Garcia v National Australia Bank and their judgment thus represents the definitive endorsement of Dixon J’s view. Kirby
J on the other hand rejected ‘the stereotype underlying Yerkey’, which he …

Legal Uncertainties: Covid-19, Distance Learning, Bar Exams, And The Future Of U.S. Legal Education, Christine Corcos

Journal Articles

The COVID-19 pandemic forced the U.S. legal academy and legal profession to make changes to legal education and training very rapidly in order to accommodate the needs of students, graduates, practitioners, clients, and the public. Like most of the public, members of the profession assumed that most, if not all, of the changes would be temporary, and life would return to a pre-pandemic normal.

These assumed temporary changes included a rapid and massive shift to online teaching for legal education, to online administration of the bar exam in some jurisdictions, or the option to offer the diploma privilege in others. …

A Peace Treaty For The Bar Wars: An Updated Framework To Determine Permissibility Of Mandatory Bar Association Activity, Everett Stanley

Emory Law Journal

First Amendment challenges against the constitutionality of mandatory bar associations have frequented federal appellate courts. However, only two Supreme Court cases are directly applicable to these claims, neither of which provides a clear framework to adjudicate all of the issues involved. As a result, appellate courts have taken divergent routes to determine the constitutionality of whether (1) mandatory membership to the bar generally violates the freedom of association, and (2) certain activities undertaken by mandatory bar associations violate the freedom of speech and, in some circuit courts, association. The first issue has resulted in a rift between circuits. The Sixth …

Alternatives To Immigrant Detention Under Biden: Expansion Of Immigrant Industrial Complex, Amber Chong

Scripps Senior Theses

This article examines the political reasons for the expansion of alternatives to detention (ATD) for immigrants under President Joe Biden’s administration. Enrollment in ATDs has doubled since the beginning of Biden’s presidency in January 2021, a stark growth after over ⅔ of voters polled by the ACLU said they would support the elimination of private immigrant detention centers. To understand the growth of ATD, I analyze the bipartisan expansion of immigrant detention and militarization of the U.S. Mexico border, discussing the Democratic Party’s history of criminalizing immigrants and bolstering surveillance in service of racist notions of “national security.” I then …
