The Nonmarital Sexual Conduct Of Custodial Mothers: A Study Of California's Precarious Parental Rights, Barbara Child
The Nonmarital Sexual Conduct Of Custodial Mothers: A Study Of California's Precarious Parental Rights, Barbara Child
Golden Gate University Law Review
Mothers of minor children engage in sexual conduct with men to whom they are not married. That is no longer a shocking truth. Nonetheless, those mothers continue to live with a Damocles sword hanging over their heads. Their sexual conduct can still cause them to lose their children, even in these supposedly liberated times in the state of California. This Article surveys the cases in which the most commonly used ambiguous statutes together with secure judicial discretion have been brought to bear on custodial mothers who either by choice or by economic necessity do not live conventional middleclass lives.

Inequity & Economics: Federal Income, Gift And Estate Tax Treatment Of De Facto Families, Michael Zaidel
Inequity & Economics: Federal Income, Gift And Estate Tax Treatment Of De Facto Families, Michael Zaidel
Golden Gate University Law Review
Disparate tax treatment of married couples in common law vis-a-vis community property states led to remedial congressional action a generation ago. The current inequity lies between married and unmarried couples. Correcting that imbalance will again require congressional action. Nevertheless, this Comment argues that precedent exists for judicial remedy of some of the inequitable tax burdens of the unmarried couple. Tax planning is beyond the scope of this Comment, but suggestions will be offered. Property rights and contract formation are treated only to the extent of their tax ramifications.
Joint Custody As A Statutory Presumption: California's New Civil Code Sections 4600 And 4600.5, Nancy K. Lemon
Joint Custody As A Statutory Presumption: California's New Civil Code Sections 4600 And 4600.5, Nancy K. Lemon
Golden Gate University Law Review
On January 1, 1980, California, in enacting Civil Code sections 4600 and 4600.5, became the first state in the nation to operate under statutes not only authorizing joint custody awards upon divorce, but also establishing a presumption that joint custody is in the best interests of the child when both parents request it. This Article will examine the history of joint custody and of the legislative process, present guidelines for judicial interpretation, and undertake an analysis of the implications for women in the new statutes.
