Judicial Competence And Fundamental Rights, Earl S. Maltz, Ira C. Lupu Dec 1979

Judicial Competence And Fundamental Rights, Earl S. Maltz, Ira C. Lupu

Michigan Law Review

In the April 1979 issue of the Michigan Law Review, Professor Ira Lupu added his valuable contribution to the continuing debate on the problem of defining the nature of fundamental rights under the Constitution.
