Zoning For The Mentally Ill: A Legislative Mandate, Deborah A. Schmedemann
Zoning For The Mentally Ill: A Legislative Mandate, Deborah A. Schmedemann
Faculty Scholarship
Under the aegis of President John Kennedy, Congress first began to concern itself with the needs of the mentally ill over two decades ago. Bills providing for community mental health centers and congregate housing have appeared subsequently to attempt to expedite integration of the mentally ill into community life. These congressional mandates, however, have met with reluctance-if not hostility. While federal law makers have been the champion of deinstitutionalization, they have placed responsibility for implementation of their programs on the state and local levels.

The Uses Of Scientific Information In Environmental Decision Making, Marcia R. Gelpe
The Uses Of Scientific Information In Environmental Decision Making, Marcia R. Gelpe
Faculty Scholarship
This Article explores the response of the legal system to the uncertainty which is inherent in the scientific analysis of environmental impact. The first principle of due process is that the assignment of responsibility correspond with the actor who did in fact cause the injury. We argue that existing concepts of cause-in-fact, the foundation of liability, place potentially severe constraints on the ability of the legal system to respond to the need to minimize the risks of future environmental injury. Further, these constraints exist to some degree regardless of whether the prohibitions or restrictions take the form of adjudication, administrative …
Peace-Keeping Costs And Charter Obligations - Implications Of The International Court Of Justice Decision On Certain Expenses Of The United Nations, James F. Hogg
Faculty Scholarship

This opinion may prove to be one …
