Standing To Raise A Conflict Of Interest, Ivy Johnson

Northern Illinois University Law Review

Lawyers often seek disqualification of the opposing counsel based upon their conflicts of interest as a strategic measure to delay litigation and increase costs for the other side. For many years, courts presumed that parties unaffected by the conflict of interest had standing because of the lawyer's professional obligations to report violations of ethics rules. Recently, the United States Supreme Court has cast doubt on the standing of such parties. This article first gives a brief introduction to conflict of interest rules and standing, followed by an in-depth analysis of the state of the law. Ms. Johnson concludes with an …

Regulating Federal Prosecutors' Ethics, Bruce A. Green, Fred C. Zacharias

Vanderbilt Law Review

To what extent should federal prosecutors be regulated by states, by federal courts, or by the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ) as a matter of self-regulation? This Article concludes that, subject to congressional oversight, federal courts should have the ultimate authority to regulate federal prosecutors. However, it also acknowledges the legitimacy of competing claims by the states and DOJ. Sometimes, federal courts should defer to state court regulation, given traditional state regulation of the practice of law and a host of practical considerations. At other times, federal prosecutors have compelling reasons to seek freedom from both state regulation and regulation …

An Overview Of The Symposium, Timothy L. Fort, Cindy A. Schipani

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

By design, this conference was constructed to brainstorm about the connection of governance, ethics, and peace. To that end, the conference and these papers were a success. As a novel question, however, we are far from providing a definitive answer to exactly what should be done to foster the connection and, more basically, exactly what the connection looks like. One can, however, identify three general themes emanating from the conference that provide a sense for the opportunities of future research.

First, there is a public policy dimension. Corporations gain their authority through state action and the duties of fiduciaries of …

Some Ethical Reflections On Cyberstalking, Frances Grodzinsky, Herman T. Tavani

School of Computer Science & Engineering Faculty Publications

The present study examines a range of moral issues associated with recent cyberstalking cases. Particular attention is centered on the Amy Boyer/ Liam Youens case of cyberstalking, which raises a host of considerations that we believe have a significant impact for ethical behavior on the Internet. Among the questions we consider are those having to do with personal privacy and the use of certain kinds of Internet search facilities to stalk individuals in cyberspace. Also considered are questions having to do with legal liability and (possible) moral responsibility that Internet Service Providers (ISPs) have for stalking crimes that occur in …
