The First Amendment And Nonpicketing Labor Publicity Under Section 8(B)(4)(Ii)(B) Of The National Labor Relations Act, Lee Goldman Nov 1983

The First Amendment And Nonpicketing Labor Publicity Under Section 8(B)(4)(Ii)(B) Of The National Labor Relations Act, Lee Goldman

Vanderbilt Law Review

This Article attempts to provide the appropriate constitutional analysis of restrictions on nonpicketing labor publicity. Part II describes the relevant statute and illustrative cases, including the Supreme Court's DeBartolo decision, that have raised but not resolved the first amendment issues concerning nonpicketing labor publicity. The cases focus attention on two restrictions the courts have imposed on nonpicketing labor publicity-the "producer-distributor" and the "for the purpose of" requirements. Part III analyzes the protected status of the nonpicketing labor speech by comparing nonpicketing labor publicity with labor picketing and commercial speech-two areas that bear superficial similarity to nonpicketing labor publicity and that …

National Labor Relations Act: The Roles Of The Nlrb And The Courts Of Appeals After Pullman-Standard In Determining Employer Motivation In Section 8 (A)(3) Dual Motive Cases, William E. Anderson

Vanderbilt Law Review

This Note advocates use of the Pullman-Standard Title VII model to define the proper roles of the Board and the courts of appeals in determining discriminatory intent in section 8 (a)(3) dual motive cases. Part II of this Note discusses the current confusion concerning the amount of discretion a court of appeals owes the Board's finding of discriminatory intent in dual motive cases. Part II also traces the Supreme Court's failure to define clearly the proper roles of the Board and the courts of appeals in finding discriminatory intent, the confusion this failure has caused, and the Board's unsuccessful attempt …


The Deductibility Of Daily Transportation Expenses To And From Distant Temporary Work Sites, Michael D. Rose Apr 1983

The Deductibility Of Daily Transportation Expenses To And From Distant Temporary Work Sites, Michael D. Rose

Vanderbilt Law Review

In the Article Professor Rose addresses the uncertainty that has characterized judicial application of Internal Revenue Code provisions to daily transportation expenses to and from distant temporary work sites. Although the Internal Revenue Code disallows deductions for commuting expenses to and from work, transportation expenses between work sites are deductible. The courts have had some difficulty applying these principles to distant temporary work sites. Professor Rose argues that the United States Tax Court in Turner v. Commissioner has fomented much of this confusion. Although the court reached the correct determination on the facts, its rationale is flawed. According to Professor …

Back To Square One: Estoppel Against The Government After Immigration And Naturalization Service V. Miranda, Gerald J. Pels Jan 1983

Back To Square One: Estoppel Against The Government After Immigration And Naturalization Service V. Miranda, Gerald J. Pels

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

In this nation of immigrants, few matters of public policy arouse more intense or divisive public debate than the subject of change in our immigration and naturalization laws. Presently, our system of immigration laws, which is grounded upon antiquated procedure, is being tested by new problems. For example, the increase in political asylum cases and the influx of aliens from the third world have posed new challenges for these outdated procedures. The 97th Congress considered adopting the Simpson-Mazzoli bill in 1982 to alleviate the problems.

The Senate passed the Simpson-Mazzoli bill on August 17,1982, but the House did not act …
