Systemic Inequality | A Call For Desegregation In Education: Examining The Strength In Diversity Act, Kimberly Ayudant May 2021

Systemic Inequality | A Call For Desegregation In Education: Examining The Strength In Diversity Act, Kimberly Ayudant

Fordham Law Review Online

In the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision, the Supreme Court unanimously ruled that the concept of “separate but equal” education was unconstitutional. Yet now, more than sixty-five years after this decision, school segregation is on the rise in the United States. While school segregation is no longer enforced by the explicit prohibition of Black students and white students attending the same schools, it is instead caused by various pernicious government policies ranging from school district mapping to school funding allocations. Historically, the federal government has remained at the outskirts of education policy as public education is held to …

Understanding The Social And Cognitive Process In Law School That Creates Unhealthy Lawyers, Kathryne M. Young May 2021

Understanding The Social And Cognitive Process In Law School That Creates Unhealthy Lawyers, Kathryne M. Young

Fordham Law Review

Previous work on law student wellness and mental health strongly suggests that the seeds of professional unhappiness are sown in law school. Law students suffer from anxiety, depression, substance abuse, and other mental health problems at alarmingly high rates. They also leave law school with different concerns, commitments, and cognitive patterns than when they entered, emerging less hopeful, less intrinsically motivated, and more concerned with prestige than they were at the outset. So what, exactly, happens to people in law school? Although a rich body of quantitative and survey-based research on law students documents these empirical trends, surprisingly little qualitative …


Who Needs Adverse Possession?, Nadav Shoked May 2021

Who Needs Adverse Possession?, Nadav Shoked

Fordham Law Review

Adverse possession is one of property law’s most central doctrines. Yet, this Article contends, the need it answers has been largely misunderstood. Adverse possession’s doctrinal effects are clear—and stark: when its requirements are met, an owner loses her land to an invader. To explain a doctrine instituting such a radical result, scholars resort to property law’s major philosophical theories. These theories, they argue, at times demand that an owner lose her land to another person who is more committed to that land. The problem with these prevailing justifications of adverse possession, this Article shows, is that they imagine a very …


Affirmative Immunity: A Litigation-Based Approach To Curb Appellate Courts’ Raising Qualified Immunity Sua Sponte, Michael E. Beyda May 2021

Affirmative Immunity: A Litigation-Based Approach To Curb Appellate Courts’ Raising Qualified Immunity Sua Sponte, Michael E. Beyda

Fordham Law Review

Qualified immunity, to put it simply, provides public officials with immunity from civil lawsuits if they have violated an individual’s constitutional rights under their official authority and those rights were not “clearly established” at the time of the official’s actions. The doctrine has evolved into an elaborate framework that has plagued civil rights plaintiffs, as well as courts, for decades. Qualified immunity is an affirmative defense, and affirmative defenses are waived if not raised appropriately by the defendant. Moreover, issues that are not properly raised before the trial court, including affirmative defenses, are generally not considered for the first time …


Taking A Stand: Climate Change Litigants And The Viability Of Constitutional Claims, Mina Juhn May 2021

Taking A Stand: Climate Change Litigants And The Viability Of Constitutional Claims, Mina Juhn

Fordham Law Review

In response to the accelerating effects of global warming, individuals and citizen groups in the United States have brought suit against the federal government to challenge the adequacy of existing climate change policies. Though statutory and tort claims comprise the bulk of these actions, plaintiffs have begun alleging that government inaction on climate change violates constitutional and fundamental rights. In these matters, the federal judiciary generally applies threshold justiciability doctrines, such as standing and the political question doctrine, to deny judicial review. This Note examines the reasoning behind the judiciary’s application of these doctrines and evaluates the appropriate scope of …


Clean Water Act Jurisdiction Over Groundwater Discharges After County Of Maui V. Hawaii Wildlife Fund, Jocelyn Lee May 2021

Clean Water Act Jurisdiction Over Groundwater Discharges After County Of Maui V. Hawaii Wildlife Fund, Jocelyn Lee

Fordham Law Review

The Clean Water Act is the principal federal law aimed at controlling pollution of the nation’s water resources, yet it does not provide comprehensive oversight of pollutants entering groundwater, the subsurface water that often feeds into rivers, lakes, and oceans. This Note examines a recent Supreme Court decision, County of Maui v. Hawaii Wildlife Fund, which appeared to endorse a theory of federal regulation of groundwater discharges under the Clean Water Act. County of Maui established a “functional equivalent” standard, under which a discharge through groundwater is subject to the Clean Water Act’s permitting requirements if it is the functional …


Transgender Inmates’ Right To Gender Confirmation Surgery, Marissa Luchs May 2021

Transgender Inmates’ Right To Gender Confirmation Surgery, Marissa Luchs

Fordham Law Review

The Eighth Amendment prohibits cruel and unusual punishment. It ensures that the state’s power to punish is exercised within the bounds of evolving standards of human decency. At the time of its enactment in 1791, the Eighth Amendment merely protected against torture and other physically barbarous treatments. However, as society’s standards of decency changed, so too did the scope of the Eighth Amendment. Today, among other protections, the Eighth Amendment mandates that prisons provide inmates with adequate conditions of confinement. This includes an obligation on the part of the prison to provide adequate medical care. But a great deal of …


The Sunset Of The Holocaust Expropriated Art Recovery Act Of 2016 And The Rise Of The Demand And Refusal Rule, Fallon S. Sheridan May 2021

The Sunset Of The Holocaust Expropriated Art Recovery Act Of 2016 And The Rise Of The Demand And Refusal Rule, Fallon S. Sheridan

Fordham Law Review

During World War II, hundreds of thousands of works of art were confiscated by Nazis under the direction of Adolf Hitler or sold for less than market value by members of the Jewish community fleeing Nazi Germany. Shockingly, an estimated 100,000 of the 600,000 works that were taken are still missing today. In recognition of the need for laws that adequately assist original owners (and their heirs) in recovering these works of art, the U.S. Congress passed the Holocaust Expropriated Art Recovery Act of 2016 (“the HEAR Act”). The HEAR Act supplanted state statutes of limitations for Naziconfiscated artwork with …
