ANIL JAIN DR ANIL JAIN
ABSTRACT Introduction “ CESSATION OF LIFE IS INEVITABLE “ ........... PROLONGING AT WHAT COST ? " LIVING WILL " Many thousands of patients are kept alive in comatose and permanently vegetative states. Have we ever considered the sufferings and pain of the patient who is not able to speak and the cost burden to their families & government . Nearly 80% of all deaths are unnecessarily prolonged, painful, expensive, and emotionally burdensome to both patients and their families . In underdeveloped countries where health care is not a part of Government system, patients and their families pay from their pocket …
Welcome To The Amazon: Leading Online Retail From Local Tax Avoidance Into Your Backyard, Sherry Tehrani
Welcome To The Amazon: Leading Online Retail From Local Tax Avoidance Into Your Backyard, Sherry Tehrani
Sherry Tehrani
Online sales in the United States have increased by over 250 percent in the last ten years, reaching over 250 billion dollars in 2012.[1] Spearheaded by Amazon.com, Inc. (“Amazon”), online retailers have fed off their competitive advantage of avoiding local sales tax, and have grown to capture roughly 7 percent of the retail market.[2] The juxtaposition of this upsurge of untaxed online sales and our nationwide recession has prompted state governments with crushing deficits to take on the tax loophole.
Local governments across the U.S. have passed legislation to enforce online sales tax collection, referred to as “Amazon …

Anglo-American Comparison Of Employers Liability For Discrimination In Employment Based On Weightism, Sam Middlemiss
Anglo-American Comparison Of Employers Liability For Discrimination In Employment Based On Weightism, Sam Middlemiss
Sam Middlemiss
Discrimination that is motivated by someone’s size or weight is known as weightism, fattism, and obesity or weight-based discrimination. The term weightism is most commonly used in the United States [1]and in this writer’s view is the best term to describe this form of discrimination. This article will involve analysis and comparison of the research into weightism and the legal rules that cover it in the United Kingdom and the United States. Weightism is discrimination that is often based on stereotypical views of people who have weight issues especially, people who are extremely large or obese or very thin. …

The Forgotten Father, What Happened To Equal Rights?, Gabriel Neff
The Forgotten Father, What Happened To Equal Rights?, Gabriel Neff
Gabriel Neff
Introduction
Footnote 67 written in 1971 of Roe. v Wade states: the provisions of the father's rights in the constitutionality of the paternal rights in an abortion need not be decided, the time has come in 2013, in which the constitutionality of a fathers rights in an abortion must be considered.
Paternal rights of a father are something that most people don’t even consider. How this has come to be, is what my article will look to achieve. With the 14th amendment protecting the privacy of woman regarding the decision of an abortion, it will be difficult to gain any …
Battering The Poor: How Georgia’S Mandatory Family Violence Classes Deny Indigent Defendants Equal Protection Of The Law, Whitney Scherck
Battering The Poor: How Georgia’S Mandatory Family Violence Classes Deny Indigent Defendants Equal Protection Of The Law, Whitney Scherck
Whitney Scherck
Thirty years ago, the U.S. Supreme Court in Bearden v. Georgia held that the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment prevents a court from incarcerating an individual for failure to pay a fine unless it first inquires into their reasons for failing to do so and determines that the defendant willfully failed to make bona fide efforts to pay. However, recently, a new kind of legal debt has emerged. As states’ budgets tighten, so-called user fees are becoming an increasingly common way for legislatures to toughen the criminal justice system without having to come up with funding for it. …
The Duty To Make Amends To Victims Of Armed Conflict, Scott T. Paul
The Duty To Make Amends To Victims Of Armed Conflict, Scott T. Paul
Scott T Paul
In the past decade, calls for monetary payments by warring parties to the civilians they harm have become significantly louder and more prominent. The law of armed conflict permits parties to harm civilians, so long as the harm is not excessive to the concrete and direct military advantage they anticipate gaining through an attack. This paper examines the current state of international law regarding duties owed to victims suffering harm as a result of lawful combat operations and discusses the moral obligations owed to them by the parties who cause them harm. The paper notes that civilians who suffer incidental …

Sue My Car Not Me: Products Liability And Accidents Involving Autonomous Vehicles, Jeffrey K. Gurney
Sue My Car Not Me: Products Liability And Accidents Involving Autonomous Vehicles, Jeffrey K. Gurney
Jeffrey K Gurney
Autonomous vehicles will revolutionize society within the decade. They will cause accidents. Tort liability, however, is not ready for the introduction of autonomous vehicles, and, thus, liability will not be assessed to the party that is responsible for the accident. This Note addresses the liability of autonomous vehicle by examining products liability through the use of four scenarios: the Distracted Driver; the Diminished Capabilities Driver; the Disabled Driver; and the Attentive Driver.
Based on those scenarios, this Note argues that the autonomous technology manufacturer should be liable for accidents while the vehicle is in autonomous mode. This Note suggests that …
Kill-Lists And Accountability, Gregory S. Mcneal
Kill-Lists And Accountability, Gregory S. Mcneal
Gregory S. McNeal
This article is a comprehensive examination of the U.S. practice of targeted killings. It is based in part on field research, interviews, and previously unexamined government documents. The article fills a gap in the literature, which to date lacks sustained scholarly analysis of the accountability mechanisms associated with the targeted killing process. The article makes two major contributions: 1) it provides the first qualitative empirical accounting of the targeted killing process, beginning with the creation of kill-lists extending through the execution of targeted strikes; 2) it provides a robust analytical framework for assessing the accountability mechanisms associated with those processes. …
Defining American: The Dream Act, Immigration Reform, And Citizenship, Elizabeth Keyes
Defining American: The Dream Act, Immigration Reform, And Citizenship, Elizabeth Keyes
Elizabeth Keyes
The DREAM Act and the grassroots movement propelling the legislation forward reveal how the definition of citizenship is undergoing a dramatic transformation, in ways both inspiring and troubling. The DREAM movement depends upon the compelling but exceptional stories of passionate, high-achieving, law-abiding youth who already define themselves as being American, and worthy of legal status. Situating this narrative in the rich literature of citizenship, the article shows how the DREAM movement effectively exposes the disjuncture between the DREAMers' identity as Americans and their lack of legal immigration status. The article celebrates how this narrative succeeds as a contrast to the …

Research Data
The documents here archived contain data compilations researched and recorded by me and my research assistants in connection with the article by Marianne "Mimi" Wesson, Living Death: Ambivalence, Delay, and Capital Punishment (Feb. 20, 2013), https://ssrn.com/abstract=2221597.
Our research investigated four study jurisdictions: Arizona, Louisiana, Nevada, and Ohio. The data falls into two categories: analyses of reported appellate cases during designated periods in those jurisdictions; and investigations of the subsequent careers of every individual who resided on death row in one of our jurisdictions in April of 1995. The article further explains the impetus for these investigations, and the conclusions …

Are Disaster Early Warnings Effective?, Kerri Worthington, Katina Michael, Peter Johnson, Paul Barnes
Professor Katina Michael
Australia's summer is traditionally a time of heightened preparation for natural disasters, with cyclones and floods menacing the north and bushfires a constant threat in the south. And the prospect of more frequent, and more intense, disasters thanks to climate change has brought the need for an effective early warning system to the forefront of policy-making. Technological advances and improved telecommunication systems have raised expectations that warning of disasters will come early enough to keep people safe. But are those expectations too high? Kerri Worthington reports. Increasingly, the world's governments -- and their citizens -- rely on technology-based early warning …

Innovation And Litigation: Tensions Between Universities And Patents And How To Fix Them, Jacob Rooksby
Innovation And Litigation: Tensions Between Universities And Patents And How To Fix Them, Jacob Rooksby
Jacob H. Rooksby
Universities that own patents have a problem. While nearly all are keen to enhance their revenue generated from patents, few are eager or prepared to enforce them in court, alone or with their exclusive licensees, should a third-party deploy a product or process covered by a university-owned patent. Yet strict prudential standing requirements imposed by the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (“CAFC”) effectively require university participation as plaintiffs in enforcement lawsuits over their exclusively licensed patents, regardless of a university’s effective ability or enthusiasm to participate in a given action. Supported by nearly 40 years of …
