A Tale Of Two Religions: A Contractual Approach To Religion As A Factor In Child Custody And Visitation Disputes, Rebecca Korzec
A Tale Of Two Religions: A Contractual Approach To Religion As A Factor In Child Custody And Visitation Disputes, Rebecca Korzec
All Faculty Scholarship
This article focuses on the role of religious conflict between parents in determining child custody and visitation disputes. It suggests a framework for reconciling parental control over religious observance and training with the state's duty to protect the child's best interests. First, it examines the history of English and American child custody law and analyzes modern custody cases in which religion is a factor. Next, it addresses the alarming recent attempt by courts to resolve religious disputes with a shared custody approach, awarding 'spiritual custody' to one parent and 'physical custody' to the other. Finally, this article proposes a contractual …

Free Exercise: A "Hollow Promise" For The Native American In Employment Division, Department Of Human Resources Of Oregon V. Smith, Debra Ann Mermann
Free Exercise: A "Hollow Promise" For The Native American In Employment Division, Department Of Human Resources Of Oregon V. Smith, Debra Ann Mermann
Mercer Law Review
In Employment Division, Department of Human Resources of Oregon v. Smith, the United States Supreme Court held that a state criminal prohibition of the use of peyote by bona fide members of the Native American Church and a subsequent denial of unemployment benefits upon their discharge for such use does not violate the free exercise clause of the first amendment of the United States Constitution. The Court determined that Oregon's prohibition of the sacramental use of peyote was a "generally applicable criminal law" and ruled that the "compelling interest" test which ordinarily applies when a state imposes a substantial …

The Undoing Of Mandatory Free Exercise Accommodation—Employment Division, Department Of Human Resources V. Smith, 110 S. Ct. 1595 (1990), Danielle A. Hess
Washington Law Review
The United States Supreme Court has struggled to find a fair and consistent approach to cases in which an individual's religious practice conflicts with a generally applicable law. Prior to Employment Division, Department of Human Resources v. Smith, the Court used a balancing approach to determine whether the state's interests in denying an exemption to a criminal law justified the burden that the law placed on an individual's religious practice. After Smith, the state must show only that the law is generally applicable and does not directly target a religious practice. This new approach underprotects religious conduct because it provides …

The Parsonage Allowance Exclusion: Past, Present, And Future, Matthew W. Foster
Vanderbilt Law Review
Religious freedom has played a pivotal role in the history and cultural development of the United States.' Religion historically has been considered a fundamental aspect of American culture, resulting in the granting of numerous legal rights and privileges to religious personnel and institutions. These grants stem from the protections in the Bill of Rights and include privileges that, though of undoubted importance, are not known widely and may fail to provoke controversy to the same extent as perceived infringements or endorsements of religion.'
Section 107 of the Internal Revenue Code grants one of the lesser- known privileges. This statute permits …

Pluralist Establishment: Reflections On The English Experience, Robert E. Rodes
Pluralist Establishment: Reflections On The English Experience, Robert E. Rodes
Journal Articles
England's historical and current synthesis of Church and State differs greatly from other European and American experiences. It contrasts sharply with the path taken by most states, which chose to cope with religious pluralism by privatizing religion and by trying to base public life on secular views of human nature. This paper reviews the unique inception, and continuance, of the church-state throughout English history. It also reviews the unique manner in which England chose to deal with religious pluralism while maintaining its established church. After reviewing the English experience of establishment of religion, this paper concludes that the total wall …

Beguiled: Free Exercise Exemptions And The Siren Song Of Liberalism, Gerard V. Bradley
Journal Articles
From all the talk about our religious pluralism—how extensive, indelible, inarbitrable it is—one would expect that establishing one definition of religious liberty would be the mother of all civic disturbances. Wrong. We have a common definition of religious liberty. I can demonstrate our agreement with one exhibit: the immensely broad based denunciation of the 1990 Supreme Court decision, Employment Division v. Smith. Two counsellors at a drug rehabilitation center (Alfred Smith and Galen Black) appealed Oregon’s denial of unemployment benefits. Oregon cited the “misconduct” that led to their discharges. Their “misconduct” consisted of using the hallucinogenic drug peyote. Peyote …

The Pending Gauntlet To Free Exercise: Mandating That Clergy Report Child Abuse, Raymond C. O'Brien, Michael T. Flannery
Scholarly Articles
This Article analyzes the conflict between statutory child abuse reporting requirements for clergy and the clergy-communicant privilege for confidential communications made within specific religious practices. The constitutional conflict arises between the state's interest in the protection of children by requiring that suspected cases of abuse be reported and the clergy's interest in the free exercise of their religious tenets by maintaining confidentiality. This analysis recognizes that state legislators have broadened reporting requirements to include more and more classes of people in an effort to arrest the tremendous increase in child abuse in the past decade. As a result, the shield …

Our word law is a loanword from Old Norse.1 It makes its earliest appearances in Old English manuscripts in the late tenth century. At that time the Old English word for law was, believe it or not, æ, written as a digraph called "ash." Now most readers, myself included, tend to experience anxiety when we confront a ligatured vowel like ae and so we untie it as a prelude to getting rid of it altogether: we turn an aesthete2 into an aesthete before finally humiliating him (or her) as an esthete, all to resolve our nervousness. King Æthelred the Unready …

Structural Free Exercise, Mary Ann Glendon, Raul F. Yanes
Michigan Law Review
In Part I of this article, we analyze the development of case law interpreting the religious freedom language of the First Amendment from the 1940s to the eve of the rights revolution as a casualty of the piecemeal approach to incorporation, compounded by a series of judicial lapses and oversights. Part II deals with the fate of the Religion Clause in the era of the rights revolution, when the free exercise and establishment provisions were deployed in the service of a constitutional agenda to which they were, in themselves, largely peripheral. The current period of doctrinal change is the subject …
