Attorney-Client Privilege Versus The Pto's Duty Of Candor: Resolving The Clash In Simultaneous Patent Representations, Todd M. Becker
Attorney-Client Privilege Versus The Pto's Duty Of Candor: Resolving The Clash In Simultaneous Patent Representations, Todd M. Becker
Washington Law Review
Patent attorneys play dual roles: they are simultaneously attorneys and patent practitioners. Their dual role causes problems when the rules that govern one role conflict with the rules that govern the other. One such problem is illustrated in Molins PLC v. Textron, Inc., where a patent attorney simultaneously representing two clients was caught between the Patent & Trademark Office's duty of candor and the attorney's duty of confidentiality imposed by the rules of professional responsibility. The Molins decision presents a problem because it creates uncertainty about whether confidentiality can be maintained by using the attorney-client privilege to defeat the …

Taxing Contingency Fee Attorneys As Investors: Recognizing The Modern Reality, Robert M. Amkraut
Taxing Contingency Fee Attorneys As Investors: Recognizing The Modern Reality, Robert M. Amkraut
Washington Law Review
In the 1995 case of Boccardo v. Commissioner, the Ninth Circuit changed the tax treatment of advances made by attorneys working on contingency fee arrangements. The court held that, in a specific type of contingency fee arrangement, costs paid by an attorney are deductible as ordinary and necessary business expenses. This decision not only challenges assumptions underlying decades of case law and centuries of legal ethical tradition, but it also undermines the tax accounting principle of matching expenses with related income. This Note summarizes the traditional rationales for prohibiting attorneys from deducting such costs and analyzes the Boccardo decision. …
Children Of A Lesser God: Gdr Lawyers In Post-Socialist Germany, Inga Markovits
Children Of A Lesser God: Gdr Lawyers In Post-Socialist Germany, Inga Markovits
Michigan Law Review
In this essay, I want to investigate German vetting policies by looking at one particular subgroup of examinees: GDR lawyers. In Germany, no other former socialist elite has been submitted to so thorough an ideological cleansing process as the legal profession. After reunification, all GDR judges and prosecutors hoping to remain in office had to undergo investigations that by March 1994 had left only 9.2% of their former numbers in permanent positions. Virtually all East German law professors were removed from their university posts. More than 5000 attorneys in Germany's eastern half are currently being examined for former contacts with …

Florida Bar V. Went For It, Inc.: The Supreme Court Opens The Door For Heightened Limits On Attorney Advertising, Brett A. Steele
Florida Bar V. Went For It, Inc.: The Supreme Court Opens The Door For Heightened Limits On Attorney Advertising, Brett A. Steele
Mercer Law Review
Florida Bar v. Went For It, Inc. involves the constitutionality of Florida Bar rules prohibiting personal injury lawyers from sending targeted direct-mail solicitations to accident victims and their families within thirty days following an accident. In March 1992, respondent Went For It, Inc., a lawyer referral service, and its owner, G. Stewart McHenry, filed suit in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida against the Florida Bar, seeking declatory and injunctive relief. After referral from the district court, a magistrate judge recommended summary judgment in favor of the Florida Bar. The magistrate judge found that the …
Representation Of Claimants At Unemployment Compensation Proceedings: Identifying Models And Proposed Solutions, Maurice Emsellem, Monica Halas
Representation Of Claimants At Unemployment Compensation Proceedings: Identifying Models And Proposed Solutions, Maurice Emsellem, Monica Halas
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
Emsellem and Halas posit that claimants need representation at unemployment compensation proceedings. Evaluating statistical and survey data, the authors find that representation significantly improves a claimant's chance of receiving unemployment compensation. Improved recovery rates, they argue, benefit not only claimants but also society. The authors analyze the factors inducing employer appeals of compensation awards. They also review the systemic issues that accompany the provision of representation to those unable to afford it or to those unfamiliar with the unemployment compensation process. Finally, the authors present models of expanding claimant representation.
Aba Accreditation Of Law Schools: An Antitrust Analysis, Andy Portinga
Aba Accreditation Of Law Schools: An Antitrust Analysis, Andy Portinga
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
The accreditation activities of the American Bar Association are under attack. From within legal academia, professors and deans complain that the ABA accreditation process is overly formalistic and intrusive. In addition, the Massachusetts School of Law has sued the ABA, alleging that the ABA's accreditation standards violate the Sherman Act. From outside legal academia, the Department of Justice has investigated the ABA's accreditation activities and initiated an antitrust suit against the ABA. The Department of Justice and the ABA immediately settled this suit, and, as a result of this settlement, the ABA has agreed not to enforce certain standards and …
Women In The Courts: An Old Thorn In Men's Sides, Nikolaus Benke
Women In The Courts: An Old Thorn In Men's Sides, Nikolaus Benke
Michigan Journal of Gender & Law
This article was inspired by the work of a series of state task forces on women in the courts. It examines the subject from a historical perspective, comparing ancient Rome, mainly during the period from the first century B.C. to the third A.D., with the United States, from its prerevolutionary beginnings to the present. The article's focus is gender bias against women acting in official court functions.
