The New Role Of Coercion In Antitrust, Jean Wegmen Burns Jan 1991

The New Role Of Coercion In Antitrust, Jean Wegmen Burns

Fordham Law Review

With the ascendancy of the economic efficiency approach and its emphasis on competitive prices and output, coercrion--the use of force or threat; to copel another to act against one's will--seemingly no longer has a role to play in antitrust analysis. Professor Burns argues that coercion is indeed still relevant in antitrust analysis, though its role has changed from the central character it once played in the early antitrust cases. After analyzing the evolving role of coercion, Professor Burns concludes that the concept is still useful in vertical restraints and tie-ins distinguishing between efficient restraints and inefficient ones and in evaluating …


Cottage Savings Association V. Commissioner: Refining The Concept Of Realization, Loren D. Prescott Jr. Jan 1991

Cottage Savings Association V. Commissioner: Refining The Concept Of Realization, Loren D. Prescott Jr.

Fordham Law Review

Professor Prescott offers an indepth analysis of the Supreme Court's recent endorsement of the 'materially different' standard--the exchange of property for other property differing materially either in kind or in extent--as a measure for realizing income. After discussing the Court's endorsement, Professor Prescott discusses possible applications of the 'legal entitlements' test for evaluating 'material differences' to various property exchange transactions, and concludes that such application may alter the tax treatment of many traditionally tax-free transactions.


Rule 11: Where We Are And Where We Are Going, Georgene M. Vairo Jan 1991

Rule 11: Where We Are And Where We Are Going, Georgene M. Vairo

Fordham Law Review

Professor Vairo discusses the compelling need to amend Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11. She demonstrates that the rule is being used to limit advocacy in the federal courts, particularly in civil rights, employment discrimination, and other types of "disfavored" caes, and that it is creating wasteful satellite litigation. Lastly, she argues that three recent Supreme Court cases indicate that the Court is unwilling to address the problems caused by Rule 11. Professor Vairo thus advocates that the Federal Rules' Advisory Committee revise the rule by adopting the approach of the Bench-Bar Proposal.

Francovich And Bonifaci V. Italy: Eec Member State Liability For Failure To Implement Community Directives, James E. Hanft Jan 1991

Francovich And Bonifaci V. Italy: Eec Member State Liability For Failure To Implement Community Directives, James E. Hanft

Fordham International Law Journal

This Comment argues that the Francovich judgment logically proceeds from the Treaty and general principles of Community law. Part I discusses the state of Community law prior to the Francovich decision. Part II examines the factual background of the decision, the judgment of the Court, and the opinion of Advocate General Mischo. Part III argues that the principle of liability in damages for a breach of Community law is a logical extension of the Treaty and the Court of Justice caselaw. This Comment concludes that private law remedies or their equivalent must be made available for breaches of Community law …


Valentine Korah, An Introductory Guide To Eec Competition Law And Practice, Joseph P. Griffin Jan 1991

Valentine Korah, An Introductory Guide To Eec Competition Law And Practice, Joseph P. Griffin

Fordham International Law Journal

The Fourth Edition of Professor Valentine Korah's Introductory Guide to EEC Competition Law and Practice (the "Guide") continues her tradition of concise, insightful, and very useful publications. Since it was first published in 1978, this book and its companion Monographs on group exemptions have gained a reputation for being invaluable guides for the beginner as well as a useful starting place for the experienced practitioner. The Guide explains European Economic Community ("EEC") competition rules critically, in the light of the Community objectives they are intended to achieve. The underlying policies and economic theories are also explored.


Immigration And Naturalization Service V. Elias-Zacarias: A Departure From The Past, Bret I. Parker Jan 1991

Immigration And Naturalization Service V. Elias-Zacarias: A Departure From The Past, Bret I. Parker

Fordham International Law Journal

This Comment argues that the standards enunciated by the Supreme Court in Elias-Zacarias should not be applied beyond cases involving persecution on account of political opinion. Part I sets out the relevant statutes, treaties, and international documents that control U.S. asylum law. Part II describes the majority and dissenting opinions in Elias-Zacarias. Part III analyzes the Supreme Court's decision in Elias-Zacarias and argues that the decision was misguided in its approach. This Comment concludes that Elias-Zacarias should be limited in its future application so that the United States can maintain its compliance with international treaty obligations.


1992: High Time For American Lawyers To Learn From Europe, Or Roscoe Pound's 1906 Address Revisited, James R. Maxeiner Jan 1991

1992: High Time For American Lawyers To Learn From Europe, Or Roscoe Pound's 1906 Address Revisited, James R. Maxeiner

Fordham International Law Journal

Events in Europe are impelling Americans to give European civil law systems more attention. While commercial considerations are providing the catalyst, better U.S. law could be a by-product. Americans familiar with European systems will recognize, as Pound did, the extent to which the causes for dissatisfaction with the administration of justice in the United States lie in our peculiar legal system. With knowledge of civil law systems, we could work better for the future that Pound sought, one where our courts will be "swift and certain agents of justice" and the "sporting theory of justice" will be just a memory.


The Right To Be Heard In Eec Competition Procedures, Julian M. Joshua Jan 1991

The Right To Be Heard In Eec Competition Procedures, Julian M. Joshua

Fordham International Law Journal

This Article examines the procedure under the European Community’s Regulation No. 17 and compares it with the concept of a fair hearing as it exists in English and U.S. administrative law. Far from supporting the premise that the Commission's proceedings are fundamentally flawed and unfair, a proper comparison shows that they are fully in accordance with the common law desiderata for a fair procedure. In many respects they not only meet, but also exceed, the common law standard. In the process, this Article will correct some of the more egregious misstatements which have been made regarding the alleged “unfairness” of …


International Art Theft Disputes: Harmonizing Common Law Principles With Article 7(B) Of The Unesco Convention, Maritza F. Bolaño Jan 1991

International Art Theft Disputes: Harmonizing Common Law Principles With Article 7(B) Of The Unesco Convention, Maritza F. Bolaño

Fordham International Law Journal

This Note argues that U.S. courts should adopt a uniform approach in assessing litigants' conduct to adjudicate art theft disputes. Part I discusses the history of the UNESCO Convention and the Convention on Cultural Property Implementation Act (the "CPIA" or "Implementation Act") and sets forth article 7(b) of the Convention which bans the import of stolen cultural property. Part II highlights the uncertainty in U.S. state and federal courts' application of common law principles to controversies concerning title to stolen art. Part III advocates the application of uniform standards in the adjudication of art theft disputes and the reconciliation of …


The Role Of Consent And Consumer Protection In Reconciling Articles 30 And 36 In Hag I And Hag Ii, Anna Lo Monaco Jan 1991

The Role Of Consent And Consumer Protection In Reconciling Articles 30 And 36 In Hag I And Hag Ii, Anna Lo Monaco

Fordham International Law Journal

This Article explores the S.A. CNL-Sucal NV v. Hag GF AG (“Hag II”) judgment of October 17, 1990, of the Court of Justice of the European Communities and how the decision offers an opportunity to elaborate on the role of consent in reconciling the principle of the free movement of goods with the existence of national intellectual property rights in European Community law.
