The Battle For Land And Energy: Rethinking Data Centers As Essential Public Infrastructure, Ava Dinunzio

Texas A&M Journal of Property Law

Data centers, integral to the digital economy and services like cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and online communication, have become essential infrastructure. Yet the rapid demand presents challenges, including land scarcity, environmental impacts, and monopolistic control by Big Tech.

Selective public utility regulation would ensure equitable access, sustainable practices, and fair resource use, including tailored eminent domain powers to support development. By addressing these challenges through public utility regulation, this framework balances public needs …

Juror Contact In The Digital Age: The Linkedin Problem, Drew Thornley

Duke Law & Technology Review

This Article examines an evolving dispute in professional responsibility: whether a lawyer makes a prohibited communication when viewing a juror’s LinkedIn account. When one LinkedIn user views another’s profile, the platform automatically notifies the profile owner and may include the viewer’s identity.

Place Names And Presidential Control, Austin Kruse

Northwestern University Law Review

Since the start of his second term, President Trump has issued executive orders at an extraordinary pace, using them to advance a broader ideological agenda across the administrative state. While scholarly attention has largely focused on the most sweeping of these directives, less prominent orders raise similar concerns about the reach of presidential power. This Note examines one such order: Executive Order 14,172, which directs the renaming of the Gulf of Mexico and Denali and expands presidential influence over the U.S. Board on Geographic Names (BGN).

A Tale Of Two Credits: The Post-Nestlé Alien Tort Statute And Carbon Credit Externalities, Stephanie Mao

Northwestern University Law Review

As companies increasingly embrace carbon-neutrality commitments, many rely on the voluntary carbon market to offset their emissions rather than reduce them directly. Regulatory and consumer scrutiny has focused on the widespread use of “phantom” carbon credits, i.e., credits that fail to produce meaningful climate benefits. But less attention has been paid to what this Note terms “colonial” carbon credits: those that may technically reduce emissions but do so at the expense of communities abroad. These projects may contribute to land dispossession, human rights abuses, and threats to public and environmental health. Yet, current regulatory and legal frameworks, with their focus …
