Opportunism As Crucible: Rethinking Equity In View Of Reliance Interests And Legal Evolution, John Ehrett
Opportunism As Crucible: Rethinking Equity In View Of Reliance Interests And Legal Evolution, John Ehrett
John Ehrett
This Article offers and defends a nuanced definition of opportunism in the context of legal decision-making by differentiating between opportunism in the broad sense and the particularized phenomenon of cognizably malignant opportunism. It subsequently proceeds by developing a normative critique of the case for broader invocation of counter opportunistic equitable remedies, alongside a defense of the reliance and gap-filling functions performed by opportunistic actors. Centrally, I challenge the suggestion that the existence of opportunism in private law warrants a revival of the doctrines of ex post equity. I argue instead that opportunism serves an important structural purpose where the evolution …
California Egg Toss - The High Costs Of Avoiding Unenforceable Surrogacy Contracts, Jennifer Jackson
California Egg Toss - The High Costs Of Avoiding Unenforceable Surrogacy Contracts, Jennifer Jackson
Jennifer Jackson
In an emotionally charged decision regarding surrogacy contracts, it is important to recognize the ramifications, costs, and policy. There are advantages to both “gestational carrier surrogacy” contracts and “traditional surrogacy” contracts. However, this paper focuses on the differences between these contracts using case law. Specifically, this paper will focus on the implications of California case law regarding surrogacy contracts. Cases such as Johnson v. Calvert and In Re Marriage of Moschetta provide a clear distinction between these contracts. This distinction will show that while gestational carrier surrogacy contracts are more expensive, public policy and court opinions will provide certainty and …

Auctioning Class Settlements, Jay Tidmarsh
Auctioning Class Settlements, Jay Tidmarsh
Jay Tidmarsh
Although they promise better deterrence at a lower cost, class actions are infected with problems that can keep them from delivering on this promise. One of these problems is the issue of agency cost, in which the agents of the class (the class representative and class counsel) advance their own interests at the expense of the class. Controlling agency cost, which often manifests itself at the time of settlement, has been the impetus behind a number of class-action reform proposals.
This Essay develops an idea that, in conjunction with reforms in fee structure and opt-out rights, controls agency costs at …
Remedies: A Guide For The Perplexed, Doug Rendleman
Remedies: A Guide For The Perplexed, Doug Rendleman
Doug Rendleman
Remedies is one of a law student’s most practical courses. Remedies students and their professors learn to work with their eyes on the question at the end of litigation: what can the court do for the successful plaintiff? Remedies develops students’ professional identities and broadens their professional horizons by reorganizing their analysis of procedure, torts, contracts, and property around choosing and measuring relief - compensatory damages, punitive damages, an injunction, specific performance, disgorgement, and restitution. This article discusses the law-school course in Remedies - the content of the Remedies course, the Remedies classroom experience, and Remedies outside the classroom through …

Throw The Book At Them: Testing Mortgagor Remedies In Foreclosure Proceedings After U.S. Bank V. Ibanez, Claire Ward
Throw The Book At Them: Testing Mortgagor Remedies In Foreclosure Proceedings After U.S. Bank V. Ibanez, Claire Ward
Claire Alexis Ward
This article takes one state, Massachusetts, as its focus for a perspective on the residential mortgage foreclosure crisis. U.S. Bank v. Ibanez, in early 2011, signaled a changing tide which began to hold banks accountable for the shoddy practices they frequently used to foreclose. However, the promise of Ibanez was unfulfilled as successor cases failed to follow through with its vision. Mortgagor actions brought in the trial courts to prevent foreclosure have been unsuccessful with the elemental actions based in consumer protection, contract, and equity. However, this article proposes new and novel solutions to force banks to be held accountable …
