Media Policy And Free Speech: The First Amendment At War With Itself, Ellen P. Goodman
Media Policy And Free Speech: The First Amendment At War With Itself, Ellen P. Goodman
Hofstra Law Review
Two principal pillars of media policy are communications and copyright law. In each discipline, there are pluralists who seek greater public access to the means of communications (communications policy pluralists) and communicative content (copyright pluralists). Historically, communications policy pluralists have sought government interventions in the marketplace in order to increase access to mass communications. Copyright pluralists, by contrast, have fought against regulatory interventions they argue unduly strengthen the rights of copyright holders to deny access to content. In pursuing these strategies, the pluralists have used First Amendment arguments that are in tension with each other and ultimately unavailing in the …

Market Triumphalism, Electoral Pathologies, And The Abiding Wisdom Of First Amendment Access Rights, Gregory P. Magarian
Market Triumphalism, Electoral Pathologies, And The Abiding Wisdom Of First Amendment Access Rights, Gregory P. Magarian
Hofstra Law Review
Forty years ago, Professor Jerome Barron made the classic case that the First Amendment requires not merely protection of speech against government interference but provision of access to the means of mass communication. The Supreme Court in the ensuing decades has largely rejected Barron's approach. In this article, Professor Magarian defends Barron's case for access rights against the two theoretical critiques that have underwritten its doctrinal rejection. The libertarian critique attacks the normative underpinnings of access rights, maintaining that the First Amendment insulates market-driven distributions of expressive opportunities. Professor Magarian demonstrates that politically progressive and conservative libertarian critics of access …
A Listener's Free Speech, A Reader's Copyright, Malla Pollack
A Listener's Free Speech, A Reader's Copyright, Malla Pollack
Hofstra Law Review
Despite the Supreme Court's repeated use of free speech doctrine to derail media reforms, some reform is possible. As Jerome A. Barron recognized, the Court's central error is hypothesizing a romanticized speaker. The Court's copyright jurisprudence is similarly marred by its congruent focus on a romanticized author. The original and continuing central purpose of both copyright and free speech is the wide distribution of material to citizens especially when politically relevant information and opinions are involved. The Constitution's copyright clause, Article I, section 8, clause 8, allows Congress the power to enact only such statutes as encourage the progress (meaning …

Federal Student Loan Repayment Assistance For Public Interest Lawyers And Other Employees Of Governments And Nonprofit Organizations, Philip G. Schrag
Federal Student Loan Repayment Assistance For Public Interest Lawyers And Other Employees Of Governments And Nonprofit Organizations, Philip G. Schrag
Hofstra Law Review
In the College Cost Reduction and Access Act of 2007, Congress has created the income-based repayment (IBR) plan for student loans, through which graduates with high debts and low incomes may substantially reduce their monthly loan repayment obligations. Congress has also created a public service loan forgiveness plan, through which the federal government will forgive the remaining debt of borrowers who make 120 IBR (or certain other) payments while serving full time in public service jobs (very broadly defined). These programs are available to those who borrowed for graduate and professional training as well as for undergraduate education. These two …

Judges As Humans: Interdisciplinary Research And The Problems Of Institutional Design, Chad M. Oldfather
Judges As Humans: Interdisciplinary Research And The Problems Of Institutional Design, Chad M. Oldfather
Hofstra Law Review
The article takes up the question of how best to put the increasing amount of interdisciplinary scholarship on courts and judges to work in service of institutional design and reform. The analysis focuses on the analysis from a recent book, Judges and Their Audiences: A Perspective on Judicial Behavior, by Lawrence Baum. The book provides an appropriate vehicle for this analysis because of what might be called its multi-interdisciplinarity. In it, Baum, a political scientist, draws on social psychology to critique political science models of judicial behavior.
I argue that analyses such as Baum's are important not only for their …

How To Make A Patent Market, Mark A. Lemley, Nathan Myhrvold
How To Make A Patent Market, Mark A. Lemley, Nathan Myhrvold
Hofstra Law Review
Imagine a stock market in which buyers and sellers couldn't find out the prices at which anyone else sold a share of stock. If you wanted to buy (or sell) a share of stock, you'd have to guess what it was worth. The result, everyone would agree, would be massively inefficient. Willing buyers and sellers would often miss each other. Patents, however, exist in just such a blind market. Want to know if you're getting a good deal on a patent license, or acquiring rights in a technology? Too bad. Even if that patent or ones like it have been …

The Legal Profession's Failure To Discipline Unethical Prosecutors, Angela J. Davis
The Legal Profession's Failure To Discipline Unethical Prosecutors, Angela J. Davis
Hofstra Law Review
This article explores the legal profession's failure to hold prosecutors accountable for misconduct and other ethical violations. Part I introduces the piece, providing several examples of prosecutorial power and abuse in the criminal justice system. Part II discusses prosecutorial misconduct and the inadequacy of current legal remedies. Part III argues that the Model Rules of Professional Responsibility have not provided adequate guidance to prosecutors, and that the disciplinary process has not been effective in disciplining prosecutors when they have abused their power and discretion. Part IV contends that the disbarment of Mike Nifong – the prosecutor in the Duke lacrosse …

Criminal Defense Lawyering At The Edge: A Look Back, Bruce A. Green
Criminal Defense Lawyering At The Edge: A Look Back, Bruce A. Green
Hofstra Law Review
This Article is about a prominent, early 20th-century New York City criminal defense lawyer, John Palmieri. In 1915, Palmieri defended a minor politician, John J. Delane, on charges of receiving the proceeds of prostitution from a woman with whom Delane was living. In the course of thetrial, Palmieri elicited the woman's false testimony - whether or not intentionally was later disputed - and he summed up on a portion of her testimony the he undeniably knew to be false. Palmieri's conduct led to a criminal prosecution (in which he was defended by Max Steuer) and disciplinary charges that were eventually …
