Reaffirming The Freedom Of The Press: Another Look At Miami Herald Publishing Co. V. Tornillo, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

This note does not take issue with the result of the decision. Rather, the argument herein is that the access theory deserves more complete consideration. The Court used first amendment precedents to strike down the reply statute without exploring whether the rationale behind these precedents mandated such a result. In an effort to justify more fully the Court's conclusion, this note will first present the underlying rationale of the pro-access argument. It will then analyze the constitutionality of statutes that would implement a right of access. Finally, the note will discuss several practical difficulties that access legislation would present.

Obscenity, The Law And Religion, Thomas A. Long

IUSTITIA

The long history of the relation between Western religion and secular law is both interesting and complex.' In what follows I shall discuss one current social issue which is illustrative of this relation,namely, the relatively recent legal-moral controversy over obscenity.

The Future Of First Amendment Overbreadth, J. W. Torke

Vanderbilt Law Review

In Broadrick, Justice White suggests that the willingness of the Court in the past to accord standing to litigants to raise the over-broad aspects of a statute without regard to their own conduct'depended on a "judicial prediction or assumption" regarding the threat to liberty that the statute posed.' The spirit with which the Court makes such predictions would appear to be determinative not only of the underlying standing issue but of the overbreadth claimas well." The key to discovering the paths by which the Court is "retreating" from its overbreadth holiday of the sixties lies in the recognition that the …

Political Candidates' Loyalty Oaths, Jeffrey F. Liss

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

When Washington mustered his revolutionary army, when South Carolinians called for secession, and when Senator Joseph P. McCarthy kindled fears of Communist infiltration, many people affirmed their loyalty to the nation by swearing oaths. Perhaps the oath givers hoped to subdue the anxieties of those anxious times by reducing the ambiguities in the behavior and beliefs of others. Candidates for political office have not escaped suspicion; eight states still require political candidates to swear oaths of loyalty before their names can appear on the ballot. But constitutional doctrine and changing times have diminished the loyalty oath's scope and significance. This …

The Constitutional Right To Free Communication Of The Institutionalized Resident, Lawrence O. Gostin

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

This article comes from the notes and comments section of the North Carolina Central Law Journal from 1973.

Justified by the generic first amendment protection to unabridged expression and association, a United States citizen cannot be unreasonably denied the right to communicate by mail; by telephone; with legal counsel; with the opposite sex; with others. In most states where such a citizen becomes "mentally ill," the person may be involuntarily civilly committed. Although there is no justification for such a commitment beyond the fact that the individual is sick and is in need of care, often the individual's first amendment …

Blood Transfusions And Elective Surgery: A Custodial Function Of An Ohio Juvenile Court, M. J. Zaremski

Cleveland State Law Review

Juvenile Court has traditionally been though of, within American jurisprudence, as an appendage of the state acting as parens patriae. This obligation dates back to the ancient role of the sovereign as protector of helpless children. An abundance of case law has con- strued and reinterpreted this doctrine, but none has significantly deviated from the general definition. Therefore, the description given in Black's Law Dictionary that parens patriae refers ". . to the sovereign power of guardianship over persons under disability . . . such as minors . . ." will suffice for the purposes of the ensuing discussion. These …
