Objectivity And Democracy, David K. Millon
Objectivity And Democracy, David K. Millon
Scholarly Articles
As a response to skepticism about the possibility of objectivity in legal decisionmaking conventionalism posits the shared understandings of the legal profession (about method and the implications of doctrine) as the source of constraint in legal interpretation. In this Article, Professor Millon argues that conventionalism's proponents have failed to offer an adequate account of interpretive constraint, but that conventionalism properly understood can nevertheless provide a useful perspective on the possibility of objectivity in legal interpretation. This account locates interpretive constraint in the practices of the legal profession as a whole, acting as an "interpretive community" or constituting a distinctive "language-game" …
Securities Fraud And The Mirage Of Repose, Lyman P. Q. Johnson
Securities Fraud And The Mirage Of Repose, Lyman P. Q. Johnson
Scholarly Articles
After decades of confusion, in 1991 the Supreme Court articulated a uniform federal limitations period for securities fraud claims grounded on Rule 10b-5. The court further held that the new limitations period was not subject to equitable tolling.
This Article argues that the court wrongly conflated into a singular equitable tolling doctrine two historically and normatively distinct bases for tolling a limitations period. Only claims of securities fraud uncomplicated by a later cover-up of the original fraud are free from tolling principles. The limitations period for fraud which is subsequently concealed by an original wrongdoer remains, because of the still …

Recent Developments In Osha Litigation, Marshall J. Breger
Recent Developments In Osha Litigation, Marshall J. Breger
Scholarly Articles
After almost a year serving as the Solicitor of Labor, I can attest to the difficult challenges the Department of Labor will face and must overcome in the years ahead if it is to continue to be a dynamic and positive force in setting our Nation's labor policy. Indeed, I believe that current rulemaking and enforcement litigation on behalf of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration foreshadows significant issues the Department must resolve in the near future. This article focuses on two such OSH Act issues of current prominence: one, litigation challenges to OSHA rulemaking; and two, the use of …
‘Hate Speech’ On The College Campus: Freedom Of Speech And Equality At The Crossroads, William A. Kaplin
‘Hate Speech’ On The College Campus: Freedom Of Speech And Equality At The Crossroads, William A. Kaplin
Scholarly Articles
This article focuses on the First Amendment implications of the hate speech problem, comparing the free speech values that may be endangered by attempts to regulate hate speech with the equality values that may be endangered if hate speech is left unchecked. I will also concentrate on processes that universities may devise to resolve these crucial value questions. My goal is to add order and balance to the differing points of view concerning hate speech, and to bring a measure of practicality and concreteness to what has often been a rather theoretical and abstract debate. In short, my focus will …
Offenders Abroad: The Case For Nationality-Based Criminal Jurisdiction, Geoffrey R. Watson
Offenders Abroad: The Case For Nationality-Based Criminal Jurisdiction, Geoffrey R. Watson
Scholarly Articles
When a host state does not prosecute a U.S. national who commits a violent crime abroad, the United States does not exercise jurisdiction. Should the United States eschew nationality jurisdiction, when it may provide the only basis for prosecution? Part II of this article traces the evolution of nationalitybased criminal jurisdiction in U.S. law and asserts that the United States has in fact embraced such jurisdiction in the past, usually to ensure that U.S. offenders abroad were tried by U.S. courts rather than foreign tribunals. Part III examines the current U.S. jurisdictional scheme, which relies on foreign states to prosecute …
Murder, She Wrote Or Was It Merely Selective Nontreatment?, George P. Smith Ii
Murder, She Wrote Or Was It Merely Selective Nontreatment?, George P. Smith Ii
Scholarly Articles
This article will both explore and thereby establish the medical, ethical, and legal validity of selective nontreatment of severely handicapped newborns. A construct for principled decision-making, tied to a basic recognition of the right of self-determination, as shaped by compassion and validated principles of triage and cost-benefit analysis, will be seen as the most effective means for the states-and not the federal government-to evaluate the intensely complex issues associated with allocating scarce medical resources to defective infants. Governmental intrusions into the familial decision- making forum in these circumstances must be kept to a minimum and allowed only in grave cases.
Toward An International Standard Of Scientific Inquiry, George P. Smith Ii
Toward An International Standard Of Scientific Inquiry, George P. Smith Ii
Scholarly Articles
The late Professor Thomas Emerson, a great civil libertarian, cautioned in 1976 that one of the hard problems of the First Amendment would soon be acknowledged as the extent to which the state could recognize scientific research. As he observed sagely, "It is hard to predict where these issues will lead." This essay will explore the pathway where these issues are leading in contemporary society.

The Department Of Labor’S Glass Ceiling Initiative: A New Approach To An Old Problem, Marshall J. Breger
Scholarly Articles
The concept of a "glass ceiling" is not a new one. At the turn of the century, Marie Curie almost singlehandedly created the field of nuclear chemistry and forever changed the course of science and society. But even the ultimate scientific creativity award did not help her to crack the barrier of the science establishment. She received the Nobel Prize but was denied membership in the French Academie des Sciences because of her gender. It was only after her second Nobel Prize that the ali male Academie reluctantly admitted her to the club. The problem that I have with this …

A Proposed Process For Managing The First Amendment Aspects Of Campus Hate Speech, William A. Kaplin
A Proposed Process For Managing The First Amendment Aspects Of Campus Hate Speech, William A. Kaplin
Scholarly Articles
For public institutions, attempts to regulate hate speech raise substantial legal issues under the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. For private institutions, which may not be bound by the First Amendment, attempts to regulate hate speech raise sensitive policy questions concerning the role of free expression on campus. Numerous articles (many of which are listed in the references below) have undertaken substantive analysis of these constitutional issues and policy questions. In contrast, this article explores a preliminary and overarching concern: the process by which a college or university addresses the problem of hate speech, and in particular the process …
Psychological Type Theory In The Legal Profession, Raymond B. Marcin
Psychological Type Theory In The Legal Profession, Raymond B. Marcin
Scholarly Articles
For some time now the phenomenon known as psychological typing has been finding its way into the study and even the practice of law. The phenomenon has its origin in the notion that people are different in ways that are meaningfully categorizable and classifiable, i.e., that there are genuine, empirically verifiable psychological "types" among people, with the members of each type possessing similar psychological characteristics to some significant extent. The phenomenon is based in Jungian psychology, but its influence has extended well beyond that discipline and into others, including the law and lawyering. More than two decades ago, in an …
