Cancellation Of Water Rights In Texas: Use It Or Lose It., R. Lambeth Townsend Jan 1986

Cancellation Of Water Rights In Texas: Use It Or Lose It., R. Lambeth Townsend

St. Mary's Law Journal

It is the constitutional duty of the State of Texas to conserve and develop the state’s water resources. Texas effectuates water conservation and utilization through its system of granting and administering rights for the beneficial use of the state’s water. The Supreme Court of Texas concluded the state can further conserve water by cancelling appropriations not beneficially used to the limit provided in the permit, certified filing, or certificate of adjudication. Cancellation of unused water rights enables the Water Commission to make water available for beneficial use by others. Only by the beneficial use of water can the state obtain …

The Vestiges Of The Texas Employment At-Will Doctrine In The Wake Of Progressive Law: The Employment Handbook Exception Comment., Brian Kennington Lowry Jan 1986

The Vestiges Of The Texas Employment At-Will Doctrine In The Wake Of Progressive Law: The Employment Handbook Exception Comment., Brian Kennington Lowry

St. Mary's Law Journal

Under a traditional approach of the at-will rule, if an employer hires an employee for an indefinite term then the employer may terminate the employee at will. Modification of the at-will rule has gained widespread support throughout the country. A majority of states now follow the progressive view, which allows the employment manual to become part of the labor contract, thereby obligating employers to abide by manual provisions. The progressive view maintains that an employee’s continued service after an employer issues a manual, constitutes ample consideration to make the document binding. Once a court recognizes the existence of independent consideration, …


Court-Sponsored Custody Mediation To Prevent Parental Kidnapping: A Disarmament Proposal Comment., Sue T. Bentch Jan 1986

Court-Sponsored Custody Mediation To Prevent Parental Kidnapping: A Disarmament Proposal Comment., Sue T. Bentch

St. Mary's Law Journal

Texas should implement a court-sponsored custody mediation plan to prevent parental kidnapping. Each day, hundreds of parents kidnap their own children. These kidnapped children are often the innocent victims of an escalating custody battle between parents. The magnitude of the parental kidnapping problem has forced Congress and the legislatures of the various states to address its possible solution. Congress and state legislatures implemented the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction Act, the Parental Kidnapping Prevention Act of 1980, state criminal laws, civil laws, and tort suits to address the problem. Unfortunately, these remedies only address the problem after the abduction has occurred. …

Widow And The Sperm: The Law Of Post-Mortem Insemination, E. Donald Shapiro, Benedene Sonnenblick Jan 1986

Widow And The Sperm: The Law Of Post-Mortem Insemination, E. Donald Shapiro, Benedene Sonnenblick

Journal of Law and Health

Just as there are moral and ethical implication in permitting the widow to use a sperm deposit for AIH, so are there moral and ethical implications in denying her this privilege. What is the rationale behind denying a widow access to that which would only be discarded? Suppose the sperm, rather than be discarded, were to be designated that of an unknown donor to be used in AID? If unmarred women have the right to procreate even using known donor sperm, what is the reason for prohibiting a woman to choose to be inseminated with the sperm of a man …


Fertility Or Unemployment - Should You Have To Choose, Yvonne Sor Jan 1986

Fertility Or Unemployment - Should You Have To Choose, Yvonne Sor

Journal of Law and Health

This article will address the legal issues involved in establishing an equitable balance between women's rights to equal employment opportunities and the right of future generations to be free from disease caused by parental exposures to hazardous chemical work environments. In the author's opinion the present regulatory framework provided by the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (OSHAct), the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 is inadequate to provide the requisite degree of protection to employees and, particularly, to their offspring. Part II of the article will examine some of …


Peer Review Committee Minutes And Memoranda: Non-Discoverable At All Costs, Howard S. Rabb Jan 1986

Peer Review Committee Minutes And Memoranda: Non-Discoverable At All Costs, Howard S. Rabb

Journal of Law and Health

The purpose of this article is to illustrate the inherent problems of blanket peer review confidentiality and to suggest a more equitable approach. Part I traces the deveopment of reviewing hospital quality and explains the operation and justifications of peer review committees. In Part II, the arguments supporting confidentiality are compared with the public policy favoring proper disposition of corporate negligence cases in order to determine and recommend the correct level of confidentiality. In Part III, the peer review discovery statute in section 2305.251 of the Ohio Revised COde is critically evaluated for its practical value to the advancement of …

Access To Health Care And Equal Protection Of The Law: The Need For A New Heightened Scrutiny, Wendy K. Mariner Jan 1986

Access To Health Care And Equal Protection Of The Law: The Need For A New Heightened Scrutiny, Wendy K. Mariner

Faculty Scholarship

Proposals to reduce national expenditures for health care under Medicare and other programs raise questions about the limits on legislative power to distribute health care benefits. The constitutional guarantee of equal protection has been a weak source of protection for the sick, largely because they fail to qualify for special scrutiny under traditional equal protection analysis. Recent decisions of the United States Supreme Court suggest that the Justices seek a newer, more flexible approach to reviewing claims of unequal protection. This Article examines the application of the equal protection guarantee to health-related claims. It argues that traditional equal protection analysis …
