Is The Section 1983 Civil Rights Statute Overworked? Expanded Use Of Magistrates--An Alternative To Exhaustion, Brian P. Owensby

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

Part I of this Note discusses the history and purpose of section 1983 and identifies the danger unmanaged growth of 1983 suits poses to civil rights. Part II examines several judicial responses to the 1983 caseload problem and concludes that congressional action is more appropriate. Parts III and IV explore two areas of possible legislative action. Part III questions the efficacy of a legislatively imposed requirement that the claimant exhaust state administrative remedies as a prerequisite to a 1983 suit in federal court. Part IV proposes an alternative congressional response to the 1983 caseload problem: a carefully tailored use of …

Affirmative Action After Bakke, Cordelia A. Glenn

Cleveland State Law Review

This Note will examine Regents of the University of California v. Bakke and subsequent Supreme Court decisions dealing with affirmative action to determine what effect, if any, these decisions have had on lower court determinations of the validity of affirmative-action programs. This Note will also discuss the problems inherent in judicial review of such programs and the direction that affirmative action has taken as a result of lower court decisions. Affirmative action as it relates to women and to seniority plans is beyond the scope of this Note. However, reference to these types of cases will be made for purposes …

Judicial Remedies In Pattern And Practice Suits Under The Fair Housing Act Of 1968: United States V. City Of Parma, Karen E. Rubin

Cleveland State Law Review

The elimination of racially segregated housing is a national goal of high priority. This goal is reflected in the pronouncements of law-makers and policy shapers, in decisional law, and in the existence of federal and state legislation designed to eradicate ghettos and replace them with "truly integrated and balanced" communities. Yet segregated housing patterns persist, often finding their source and legitimization in the policies and practices of local governments. This Note will examine an Ohio decision, United States v. City of Parma, and its impact on two issues: the bringing of a "pattern and practice" suit under Title VII of …

The Emerging State Court § 1983 Action: A Procedural Review , Steven H. Steinglass

Law Faculty Articles and Essays

Although actions under § 1983 have traditionally been a federal court remedy, an increasing number of litigants have turned to the state courts to pursue claims under § 1983. In light of this trend, the author presents a comprehensive examination of state court § 1983 actions--focusing on the choice of the state forum as a tactical decision, the power and duty of state courts to hear § 1983 actions, and the specific procedural and remedial issues that will arise in state court § 1983 litigation.
