Remarks On Regulating Genetically Modified Foods In The United States, Gregory Jaffe
Remarks On Regulating Genetically Modified Foods In The United States, Gregory Jaffe
Richmond Journal of Law & Technology
Thank you very much for inviting me here today. I’m going to use PowerPoint here, but I will try to keep my comments brief. I’m going to spend just a minute or two introducing my organization to you and our biotech project. Then I’m going to talk a little about the regulatory system and what I see are some of the inadequacies in the current regulatory environment for agricultural biotechnology.
Appealing A Rejection At The Patent Board Of Appeals: Analysis Of Recent Board Decisions And Non-Appeal Alternatives, Susan Perng Pan
Appealing A Rejection At The Patent Board Of Appeals: Analysis Of Recent Board Decisions And Non-Appeal Alternatives, Susan Perng Pan
Richmond Journal of Law & Technology
This article discusses the merits of appealing rejections to the Board of Patent Appeals in comparison to continued ex parte prosecution before the Examiner. The analysis takes into account recent decisions rendered by several patent panels and recent precedent of the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. Recommendations are offered to place claims in better condition for appeal and for the types of arguments to be made, as well as to guard against potential pitfalls during prosecution.
Smoke And Mirrors Or Science? Teaching Law With Computers - A Reply To Cass Sunstein On Artificial Intelligence And Legal Science, Eric Engle
Richmond Journal of Law & Technology
The application of computer science in the law has largely, and productively, centered on educational programs and programs generating and managing databases and data management. Some limited work, however, has been done in the use of artificial intelligence (“AI”) to present models of legal decision-making. The majority of the work involving AI in the law, as the majority of work in AI generally, has focused on developing expert systems. An expert system attempts to solve one problem, or one class of problems well and should be distinguished from general systems, which seek to solve any problem. While databases and didactic …
Aristotle On Animals, Agency, And Voluntariness, Nancy E. Schauber
Aristotle On Animals, Agency, And Voluntariness, Nancy E. Schauber
Richmond Journal of Law and the Public Interest
In this article, I propose a way of reading the text that has both interpretive and philosophical merits. It is a more straightforward and literal reading of the text, requiring less interpolation than alternative readings. It also attributes to Aristotle a theory of moral responsibility which is, if not correct, at least as worthy of attention as many of the contemporary theories under debate. My own view is that the objections raised miss their target not because they fail to voice legitimate concerns about an adequate theory of moral responsibility, but because what Aristotle offers in the text in question …
School Vouchers: Will They Undermine American Public Schools? Establishing A Context For Debate, Michael F. Dipaolo
School Vouchers: Will They Undermine American Public Schools? Establishing A Context For Debate, Michael F. Dipaolo
Richmond Journal of Law and the Public Interest
Available data from 1995 and 1996 shows that school districts with the largest concentrations of children living in poverty spent considerably less per student than districts with smaller concentrations. In 1995 and 1996, public school districts serving metropolitan areas spent more per student for instruction, support services, and capital outlay combined than did other districts. The recent rise of real personal income per capita has paralleled the increase in public revenue for education per elementary or secondary student. During the 1990s, however, revenue as a percentage of personal income, adjusted for the number of students and population size, decreased slightly, …
Corporate Governance In The Emerging Markets Of The Global Village: Latin And South America, Rhoda Karpatkin
Corporate Governance In The Emerging Markets Of The Global Village: Latin And South America, Rhoda Karpatkin
Richmond Journal of Global Law & Business
Corporate governance scandals in America have focused public attention once again on global governance issues. Issues that are not solely corporate or business concerns, they have become public, political, and ethical concerns. They have become economic concerns, particularly due to the erosion of public confidence in the integrity of corporate leadership and the institutions that are charged with their oversight.
Corporate Responsibility And The Regulation Of Corporate Lawyers, James M. Mccauley
Corporate Responsibility And The Regulation Of Corporate Lawyers, James M. Mccauley
Richmond Journal of Global Law & Business
On July 30, 2002, in an effort to demonstrate to the American public a resolve to crack down on corporate scandals such as Enron, Adelphia, WorldCom, and Global Crossing, President Bush signed into law the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002”. Proclaiming that the new law will restore investor confidence, reform the oversight of public accounting and increase the transparency of corporate financial statements…
Foreigners At The Gate: Foreign Direct Investment Regulations & Dispute Resolution Mechanisms In The People’S Republic Of China, George O. White Iii
Foreigners At The Gate: Foreign Direct Investment Regulations & Dispute Resolution Mechanisms In The People’S Republic Of China, George O. White Iii
Richmond Journal of Global Law & Business
The elevation of law over politics is very new in China and the extent to which it is to be taken seriously is not always clear to the Chinese involved. The Chinese official and the Chinese citizen are part of a political structure in which the Party’s will and policies have been the most effective law… Laws and regulations have to be understood in this wider context of a society in which the formal legal position is only one consideration and still often not the most important.
Remarks On Regulating Genetically Modified Foods In The United States, David Hegewood
Remarks On Regulating Genetically Modified Foods In The United States, David Hegewood
Richmond Journal of Law & Technology
I would like to thank the Richmond Journal of Law & Technology for inviting me this afternoon and for organizing this forum. I’ve never been on Crossfire, and it’s easy to see why Val has, so I probably won’t be quite as entertaining. In fact most of what I wanted to say this afternoon has already been said in one form or another. Val just stole the last one with the Watson and Crick Fiftieth Anniversary. What I want to do is maybe give you more of a sense of perspective and then go over some of the facts.

Successfully Training And Retaining New Teachers, Jo Ann Daly, Carolyn Kazemi
Successfully Training And Retaining New Teachers, Jo Ann Daly, Carolyn Kazemi
Richmond Public Interest Law Review
The widespread need to fill the many teacher vacancies in Virginia and the nation as a whole has stirred many debates on how to solve the problem. Often a "quick fix" attitude prevails when considering options for training and retaining teacher candidates to fill the current and future needs of our schools. The professional development model of collaboration between Marymount University and two local school jurisdictions is an ongoing effort that has met with success and has produced long-term positive results.
