The Case For Second Chances: A Pathway To Decarceration In Maine, Catherine Besteman, Leo Hylton Jan 2024

The Case For Second Chances: A Pathway To Decarceration In Maine, Catherine Besteman, Leo Hylton

Maine Law Review

The Article argues that Maine incarcerates too many people, for too long, for too many things, at too great of an expense. We offer evidence to support this claim, briefly review some of the criminal legal legislation that shaped our present reality, and show how recent efforts at reform have been, at best, only modestly successful. In concert with a growing number of expert voices across the country calling for strategies of decarceration, our goal is to demonstrate the need for second chance legislation in Maine in the form of the reinstatement of parole, an effective clemency process, a far-reaching …

Runtime Host-Level Monitoring Of Packet Retransmission Count, Peter T. Liu

Defensive Publications Series

The link quality indicator (LQI), a measure of the capacity of a Bluetooth channel, is too coarse to determine the fine-grained characteristics of the channel or the radio environment. This disclosure describes techniques that enable a Bluetooth host to monitor in a granular manner the retransmission count of each packet sent by a Bluetooth controller. The host can use the granular per-packet retransmission count for various purposes, e.g., to determine the instantaneous characteristics of the channel; to determine the change in the channel over time; to determine how other radios operated by the host may have affected the channel; to …

Nature, Tradition, And Virtue: Restoring The Conservative Good Life, Bruce P. Frohnen Jan 2024

Nature, Tradition, And Virtue: Restoring The Conservative Good Life, Bruce P. Frohnen

The Journal of Contemporary Legal Issues

Conservatism, always a contested term, has become the subject of major confusion in the post-Cold War era. As it emerged after the Second World War in the writings of Russell Kirk and the pages of William F. Buckley’s National Review, the conservative movement already was more coalition than single program or philosophy. The notion of conservative “fusionism” was a convenient but superficial means of holding together libertarians, politically under-defined anti-communists, and traditional conservatives in pursuit of their common public policy goals. As the Cold War wound down and the Republican Party devolved into neoliberal globalism, the movement dissolved into mutually …


Return To Deliberation, Richard M. Reinsch Ii Jan 2024

Return To Deliberation, Richard M. Reinsch Ii

The Journal of Contemporary Legal Issues

American conservatism finds itself facing an array of difficult if not intractable challenges and problems. Progressive elements dictate revolutionary claims about gender, race, economics, policing, alongside their dismissal of American history as just racism, sexism, and homophobia. Moreover, progressives sit atop the commanding heights of culture, education, social media, influential corporations, and the federal bureaucracy. Conservatives still win elections about half the time, but face incredible problems in governing because of this political, cultural, and educational imbalance of power.

On Preserving A Political Community In Revolutionary Times, Scott Yenor Jan 2024

On Preserving A Political Community In Revolutionary Times, Scott Yenor

The Journal of Contemporary Legal Issues

Among the hardest things to do in politics is to understand the current situation. Partisan loyalties cloud perspective. Political actors make overwrought charges in order to rile up their partisans. Things that seem important often are not, while small changes can lead to political revolutions. Revolutions often come without countries or political communities knowing, until it is too late.


Revitalizing The Right, David Azerrad Jan 2024

Revitalizing The Right, David Azerrad

The Journal of Contemporary Legal Issues

Debating the nature of conservatism may well be the favorite hobby of American conservatives. While the question will never be resolved to anyone’s satisfaction, it is a pleasant enough pastime to detract from the failures of the American conservative movement to conserve much anything of worth (unless you count the movement itself, in all its sinecurial grifting splendor, as something of worth).

The Acquisition Of Twitter: The Legal Interplay Between Elon Musk, Shareholders, Employees, And The Government, Florence Shu-Blankson Jan 2024

The Acquisition Of Twitter: The Legal Interplay Between Elon Musk, Shareholders, Employees, And The Government, Florence Shu-Blankson

University of Miami Business Law Review

This article examines the acquisition process of Twitter by Elon Musk. It will analyze the legal validity of Musk’s initial claims for rescinding his offer, as well as Twitter’s defense arguments. It will consider questions such as: Did Twitter cause a material adverse effect to its operations that would be a basis for Musk to avoid the deal? Did Musk run afoul of any regulatory requirements under the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Federal Trade Commission (FTC) regulations? What impact did the ultimate sale of Twitter have on other stakeholders, such as corporate executives and non-executives, shareholders, employees. The …


Virtual Stardom: The Case For Protecting The Intellectual Property Rights Of Digital Celebrities As Software, Alexander Plansky Jan 2024

Virtual Stardom: The Case For Protecting The Intellectual Property Rights Of Digital Celebrities As Software, Alexander Plansky

University of Miami Business Law Review

For the past several decades, technology has allowed us to create digital human beings that both resemble actual celebrities (living or deceased) or entirely virtual personalities from scratch. In the near future, this technology is expected to become even more advanced and widespread to the point where there may be entirely virtual celebrities who are just as popular as their flesh-and-blood counterparts—if not more so. This raises intellectual property questions of how these near-future digital actors and musicians should be classified, and who will receive the proceeds from their performances and appearances. Since, in the near-term, these entities will probably …


The Social Clerisy: Conservative Political Philosophy As A Philosophy Of Pluralism And The Social Group, Luke C. Sheahan Jan 2024

The Social Clerisy: Conservative Political Philosophy As A Philosophy Of Pluralism And The Social Group, Luke C. Sheahan

The Journal of Contemporary Legal Issues

Conservative political philosophers should be counted among, as Nisbet writes, “those thinkers who have resisted the appeal of the One, the unitary and monistic, and have found not merely reality but freedom and justice and equity to lie in plurality.” They should take as their starting point Nisbet’s tradition of the plural community. Given our place in history, following the increasing alienation and decline of social groups chronicled by Putnam and others, conservatives should feel free to pillage the ideas of pluralist thinkers outside the conservative tradition. Nisbet admits repeatedly throughout the decades of his long career that there seems …

Conservatives Divide On Matters Of Principle, Maimon Schwarzschild Jan 2024

Conservatives Divide On Matters Of Principle, Maimon Schwarzschild

The Journal of Contemporary Legal Issues

The conservative phenomenon in the United States in the years since the Second World War has entailed—I hesitate to say “embraced”—a variety of diverging views, preoccupations, and commitments, some of them at least in tension with, if not actually opposed to, one another. This has been true for conservative writers, thinkers, and publicists; it has also been true for America’s conservative voting constituencies. For many decades, conservatives were often said to be subdivided between traditionalists and libertarians. There were (and are) diverging tendencies even among the traditionalists: these tendencies can be religious or secular, with styles and emphases that diverge …
