Taxation Without Immunization: Excercising The Federal Taxing Power To Increase Childhood Vaccination Rates, Nicholas R. Consalvo Sep 2025

Taxation Without Immunization: Excercising The Federal Taxing Power To Increase Childhood Vaccination Rates, Nicholas R. Consalvo

Florida Law Review

This Note will discuss the need to exercise the taxing power of the federal government in an effort to restore immunization rates to their historically high levels. Recent spikes in unvaccinated children have resulted in global outbreaks of diseases that were near elimination. This Note's solution to the growing anti-vaccination movement is the implementation of a federal tax plan targeted at parents who—without a valid medical exemption—refuse to vaccinate their children against specific classes of vaccine-preventable diseases. This federal tax plan could take the form of an income-based tax, or loss of child tax credits, enforced against parents based on …


Allowing The Tree To Be Cut Down: Quo Warranto Writs In Florida, John W. Wilcox Sep 2025

Allowing The Tree To Be Cut Down: Quo Warranto Writs In Florida, John W. Wilcox

Florida Law Review

There is no sense in declaring that an action is outside someone's scope of power after the action has already occurred. In much the same way, it does not matter whether someone may chop down a tree after the tree is down. Yet, the Florida Supreme Court's interpretation of the quo warranto writ in League of Women Voters of Florida v. Scott allows the figurative tree to be cut down and then later declares it should have been protected.


Judicial Resistance To Mandatory Arbitration As Federal Commandeering, Matthew J. Stanford, David A. Carrillo Sep 2025

Judicial Resistance To Mandatory Arbitration As Federal Commandeering, Matthew J. Stanford, David A. Carrillo

Florida Law Review

This Article argues that the current doctrine of preempting state substantive law in favor of the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) contravenes core federalism principles generally, the Tenth Amendment specifically, and well-established anti-commandeering and federalism doctrine. These authorities are all concerned with a core federalism principle: state sovereignty.

The states retained sovereignty when they joined the Union. The Tenth Amendment expressly enshrines this retention. Modem federal court doctrine, which imposes federal arbitration law on the states, encroaches on retained state sovereignty by preempting state substantive law. This is erroneous regardless of whether Congress enacted the FAA as a rule of federal …


Rescinding Inclusion In The Administrative State: Adjudicating Daca, The Cenus, And The Military's Transgender Policy, Peter Margulies Sep 2025

Rescinding Inclusion In The Administrative State: Adjudicating Daca, The Cenus, And The Military's Transgender Policy, Peter Margulies

Florida Law Review

The rescission of programs, policies, and practices by an incoming administration often raises legal questions. However, answers are harder to find. That is the case with the whirlwind of rollbacks proposed and implemented by the Trump administration in areas from transgender persons in the military to asking a citizenship question on the census and terminating Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) and Temporary Protected Status (TPS). This Article provides a lens for assessing the legality of these seemingly precipitous moves. Viewing these abrupt paradigm shifts as threshold rescissions clarifies the legal landscape. Threshold measures govern baseline access to goods and …

Conflict Emissions And Environmental Destruction: Exacerbating Insecurity And Exclusion Among Vulnerable And Indigenous Communities In The Absence Of Inclusive Climate Governance, Mariem Yasser Sep 2025

Conflict Emissions And Environmental Destruction: Exacerbating Insecurity And Exclusion Among Vulnerable And Indigenous Communities In The Absence Of Inclusive Climate Governance, Mariem Yasser

COP30

This policy paper highlights that Indigenous and marginalized communities who manage an estimated 80 % of world biodiversity have access to less than 1 % of climate funding and are sidelined in national level decision-making (Rights and Resources Initiative, 2021). At the same time, armed conflict contributes an estimated 5.5 % of global CO₂-equivalent emissions that affects Indigenous peoples in fragile rural areas. (IPCC, 2022). Unlike failure of REDD +program in the Amazon region of Colombia, which excluded Indigenous governance and permitted deforestation to increase exponentially, DRC has developed community forest concessions integrating Indigenous and community management into climate governance …


Empowering Courts For Climate Justice: A Policy Proposal To Enhance Judicial Capacity Through The Paris Agreement Framework, Nourine Gad Sep 2025

Empowering Courts For Climate Justice: A Policy Proposal To Enhance Judicial Capacity Through The Paris Agreement Framework, Nourine Gad

COP30

This policy paper asserts that the strengthening of judicial capacity to deal with climate harm, especially ecocide, is urgently needed and that the Paris Agreement can play a huge role in this. Given that climate change has become a more political battle between justice and rights, courts have been playing a major role in holding governments and corporations accountable. Nevertheless, many national judiciaries do not have the instruments, jurisdiction, or the training to successfully adjudicate on complex climate cases. It is then argued that as a case study, Brazil has moved forward on the issue of climate rights through the …


Indigenous Leadership In The Fight Against Environmental Racism And Ecocide: Advancing Climate Justice And Human Rights, Carlos Matheus Matos Santos Dos Santos Sep 2025

Indigenous Leadership In The Fight Against Environmental Racism And Ecocide: Advancing Climate Justice And Human Rights, Carlos Matheus Matos Santos Dos Santos

COP30

Climate change intensifies social, economic, racial, and gender inequalities, disproportionately affecting historically marginalized communities, such as indigenous peoples, black populations, and riverine communities. In Brazil, practices of environmental racism and actions that constitute ecocide (such as the installation of large enterprises, illegal mining, and predatory exploitation of natural resources) compromise ecosystems and traditional ways of life. Cases such as the Belo Monte Power Plant and the expansion of mining on indigenous lands illustrate the inadequacy of socio-environmental protection mechanisms and the implementation of necropolitical policies that remove or expose communities to environmental degradation. The analysis highlights the need to integrate …


Toward A More-Than-Human Climate Diplomacy: Reclaiming Justice Beyond The Western Gaze, Leandro Gabriel Caporale Sep 2025

Toward A More-Than-Human Climate Diplomacy: Reclaiming Justice Beyond The Western Gaze, Leandro Gabriel Caporale

COP30

This policy paper interrogates the structural injustices embedded in the COP negotiation system, arguing that global climate governance remains constrained by colonial legacies, epistemic hierarchies, and an anthropocentric diplomatic model. Despite its stated goals of inclusivity, the UNFCCC process continues to marginalise Indigenous, Global South, and alternative voices, reinforcing power asymmetries that shape both participation and outcomes. Based in case studies from Ecuador and Bolivia—where rights of nature and Indigenous governance have been integrated into legal frameworks—this paper examines how alternative systems of environmental stewardship and political subjectivity can inform a more just diplomatic architecture. It proposes pragmatic, system-oriented reforms …


Indigenous People Integration Into National Climate Decision Making Process, Omnia Ahmed Ayoub Ahmed Sep 2025

The Formalisation Of The Judiciary In The International Climate Governance Vis-À-Vis A Solution For The Accountability Gap In Political Institutions, Shristi Gautam Sep 2025

The Formalisation Of The Judiciary In The International Climate Governance Vis-À-Vis A Solution For The Accountability Gap In Political Institutions, Shristi Gautam

COP30

The international governance of climate change has historically been led by political institutions operating under multilateral frameworks, such as the UNFCCC and the Paris Agreement. Under these frameworks, the mitigation ambition and implementation of NDCs remain subject to state discretion, with no binding consequences for non-compliance, creating an enduring enforcement deficit. The paper examines the increasing judicialization of climate governance as a means of addressing this deficit, positioning the judiciary as an active enforcer rather than a passive adjudicator. Drawing on Urgenda v. The Netherlands, Leghari v. Pakistan, Milieudefensie v. Royal Dutch Shell, and the 2025 ICJ Advisory Opinion, the …


The Invisible Chains: Framing Abuse Of Dominant Position In Labor Markets, Giulia Mangiafico Sep 2025

The Invisible Chains: Framing Abuse Of Dominant Position In Labor Markets, Giulia Mangiafico

Yearbook of Antitrust and Regulatory Studies

This paper examines how the concept of abuse of dominant position can be applied to the labour markets, where demand-side concentration and supply-side fragmentation generate monopsonistic dynamics that suppress wages, limit mobility, and reduce job security. It argues that traditional antitrust tools can be adapted to labour-specific contexts by redefining market boundaries through commuting zones, occupational substitutability, and recognition of artificial fragmentation. The study also addresses how exploitative practices such as non-compete agreements illustrate the concrete impact of employer power, and it highlights the need for a more coherent regulatory approach. Ultimately, it suggests that competition law, when enforced alongside …


Bridging Materials And Energy Storage Mechanisms In Zn-I2 Batteries, Rong-Qi Liu, Wen-Shuo Shang, Jin-Tao Zhang Sep 2025

Bridging Materials And Energy Storage Mechanisms In Zn-I2 Batteries, Rong-Qi Liu, Wen-Shuo Shang, Jin-Tao Zhang

Journal of Electrochemistry

Zinc-iodine (Zn-I2) batteries have emerged as a compelling candidate for large-scale energy storage, driven by the growing demand for safe, cost-effective, and sustainable alternatives to conventional systems. Benefiting from the inherent advantages of aqueous electrolytes and zinc metal anodes, including high ionic conductivity, low flammability, natural abundance, and high volumetric capacity, Zn-I2 batteries offer significant potential for grid-level deployment. This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent progress in three critical domains: positive-electrode engineering, zinc anode stabilization, and in situ characterization methods. On the cathode side, anchoring iodine to conductive matrices effectively mitigates polyiodide shuttling and enhances …

Regency Towers Llc V. Udis Sep 2025

Regency Towers Llc V. Udis

All Decisions

In this non-payment proceeding, the court granted the tenant's post-judgment motions to vacate a default judgment, allow a late answer, and for summary judgment, thereby dismissing the case. The tenant, a 92-year-old suffering from dementia, had a guardian ad litem appointed. The court found that the landlord's property was subject to the CARES Act due to a federally backed mortgage. Consequently, the rent demand, a predicate notice for the proceeding, was required to provide 30 days' notice instead of the 14 days actually given. As a predicate notice cannot be amended, the proceeding was dismissed due to this jurisdictional defect.

Clinical examination revealed an average pocket depth 6 mm and average tooth mobility 2 degree. On radiographic examination, vertical bone defects were found. The patient received initial therapy followed by surgical flap surgery using autograft from …


Series Reports From Professor Wei’S Group Of Chongqing University: Advancements In Electrochemical Energy Conversions (2/4): Report 2: High-Performance Water Splitting Electrocatalysts, Ling Zhang, Wang-Yang Wu, Qiu-Yue Hu, Shi-Dan Yang, Li Li, Rui-Jin Liao, Zi-Dong Wei Sep 2025

Series Reports From Professor Wei’S Group Of Chongqing University: Advancements In Electrochemical Energy Conversions (2/4): Report 2: High-Performance Water Splitting Electrocatalysts, Ling Zhang, Wang-Yang Wu, Qiu-Yue Hu, Shi-Dan Yang, Li Li, Rui-Jin Liao, Zi-Dong Wei

Journal of Electrochemistry

The unavailability of high-performance and cost-effective electrocatalysts has impeded the large-scale deployment of alkaline water electrolyzers. Professor Zidong Wei’s group has focused on resolving critical challenges in industrial alkaline electrolysis, particularly elucidating hydrogen and oxygen evolution reaction (HER/OER) mechanisms while addressing the persistent activity-stability trade-off. This review summarizes their decade-long progress in developing advanced electrodes, analyzing the origins of sluggish alkaline HER kinetics and OER stability limitations. Professor Wei proposes a unifying “12345 Principle” as an optimization framework. For HER electrocatalysts, they have identified that metal/metal oxide interfaces create synergistic “chimney effect” and “local electric field enhancement effect”, enhancing selective …


First Housing Company Inc. V. Tschiremu Sep 2025

First Housing Company Inc. V. Tschiremu

All Decisions

A landlord brought a non-payment proceeding against a tenant in a Mitchell-Lama cooperative. The tenant moved to dismiss the petition, asserting that the predicate rent demand was fatally defective because it included "no affidavit surcharges," which are penalties for non-compliance with income reporting, not rent. The court ruled that such surcharges do not constitute rent and cannot be included in a rent demand for a non-payment eviction. As these improperly included fees represented a significant portion (12.9%) of the total amount demanded, the court found the rent demand defective, failing to fairly apprise the tenant of the rent owed. The …


Serum Factors In Primary Podocytopathies, Edward J. Filippone, John L. Farber Sep 2025

Serum Factors In Primary Podocytopathies, Edward J. Filippone, John L. Farber

Division of Nephrology Faculty Papers

Primary podocytopathies, including minimal change disease (MCD) and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), are caused by a circulating factor or factors injurious to the podocyte. An immunologic origin seems likely based on responsiveness to corticosteroids or other immunosuppressive agents, including calcineurin inhibitors targeting T-cells and rituximab targeting B-cells. Potential non-antibody-mediated circulating factors have been identified, including cardiotrophin-like cytokine 1, soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor, and angiopoietin-like 4, among others. More recent research supports a primary antibody pathogenesis, with anti-nephrin antibodies found in a significant percentage of cases. Such antibodies also predict recurrence after transplantation. Other potential antigenic targets besides nephrin include …

September, Aleksandra Garbacz, Katarzyna Komar, Ewelina Maculewicz

Baltic Journal of Health and Physical Activity

Introduction: Knee ligament ruptures are common injuries among athletes. While most previous studies examined single collagen gene polymorphisms, few have investigated haplotype-level associations across multiple genes, particularly in elite handball players. Materials and methods: This case-control study analyzed variants in eight collagen genes (COL1A1, COL1A2, COL3A1, COL5A1, COL11A1, COL15A1, COL22A1, and COL27A1) in 103 elite Polish handball players with non-contact knee ligament rupture and 226 matched controls. Results: The COL22A1 rs11784270 CC genotype was associated with an increased risk (OR = 2.88, p = 0.01), with the strongest effect in the …


Multiscale Theory Of Dislocation Plasticity, Alexander Umantsev Sep 2025

Multiscale Theory Of Dislocation Plasticity, Alexander Umantsev

College of Health, Science, and Technology

Motion of dislocations is a common mechanism of plasticity in many materials. Dislocationmediated deformation is essentially an inhomogeneous process, which is manifest in the formation of slip lines and complicated cell wall structures. An adequate description of these processes is an important goal of Materials Theory, which aims to describe the mechanical properties of materials and their reliability in service. This publication advances the thermodynamically consistent theory of dislocation-mediated plasticity to include the spatial gradients of the independent variables. We conducted the renormalization group scaling analysis of deformation and obtained the low-energy dislocation structures as ordinary solutions of the equilibrium …
