Impact Of The Delegation Doctrine On Prison Privatization, Ira P. Robbins May 1988

Ira P. Robbins

Few people would argue that the state of our nation's prisons and jails is ideal. Apart from whatever other ills plague these institutions, overcrowding is pervasive. Populations have doubled in a decade, and with preventive detention, mandatory minimum sentences, habitual offender statutes, and the abolition of parole in some jurisdictions, there is no relief in sight. Some states are even leasing or purchasing prison space in other states. And it is costing the taxpayers more than seventeen million dollars a day to operate the facilities, with estimates ranging up to sixty dollars a day per inmate.

Ira P. Robbins

Introduction: There is a story, probably apocryphal, that, at a 1970s conference discussing the great potential and even greater problems of some economically developing countries, a rather cynical American economist is supposed to have remarked that "Brazil is the country of the future-and always will be." Some commentators believe that much the same could be said about the certification process, but with greater accuracy.

Intended to resolve problems that arise when a court of one jurisdiction must apply the law of another jurisdiction, certification is the process …

The Comparative Method And Law Reform, Darius Whelan Jan 1988

The Comparative Method And Law Reform, Darius Whelan

Darius Whelan

This 1988 LLM thesis examines law reform, the comparative method, and the combination of these two elements.
