Preferred Communications, Inc. V. Los Angeles: Broadening Cable's First Amendment Rights And Narrowing Cities' Franchising Powers, D. Scott Shaffer

UC Law SF Communications and Entertainment Journal

Since its advent, cable television has confused legislatures, courts, and commentators who have grappled with which first amendment regulatory model to apply to the medium-that of print, broadcast, or some hybrid of both. Preferred Communications, Inc. v. Los Angeles provides an opportunity to reduce the confusion. This commentary reviews the developmental and regulatory history of cable, discusses the background of the case, analyzes the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit's opinion, and comments on the United States Supreme Court's opinion. Although the Supreme Court stopped short of endorsing a particular first amendment regulatory model, the author argues …


The Choice Of Applicable Law In International Arbitration, Vitek Danilowicz Jan 1986

The Choice Of Applicable Law In International Arbitration, Vitek Danilowicz

UC Law SF International Law Review

International commercial arbitration has become increasingly popular in recent years in large part because it offers quicker and more convenient dispute resolution than litigation in a foreign nation. Nonetheless, arbitration, like litigation, presents knotty choice of law problems. This Article examines a variety of approaches currently used by arbitrators to select the law which will govern arbitration procedure. The competing interests of the international business community and the various sovereign nations seeking to control international arbitration are discussed.

China Special Economic Zones In Perspective: A Contextual Discussion With Emphasis On The Shekou Industrial Zone, Charles C. Valauskas

UC Law SF International Law Review

Next, the author focuses on the Shekou Industrial Zone to demonstrate the practical problems which face foreign corporations wishing to conduct business within a Special Economic zone. Particular emphasis is placed upon the unpredictability of the Chinese legal system, especially the vague and ambiguous statutes which regulate zone activities.

In addition, the author analyzes the relationship between the Child Abduction Convention and various domestic statutes, including the federal Parental Kidnapping Protection Act and the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction Act, which has been enacted in all 50 states.


Images From Abroad: Making Direct Broadcasting By Satellites Safe For Sovereignty, Joel R. Paul Jan 1986

Images From Abroad: Making Direct Broadcasting By Satellites Safe For Sovereignty, Joel R. Paul

UC Law SF International Law Review

Today, with the use of Direct Broadcasting Satellites (DBS), television programs can be sent from one end of the globe to the other. This new technology has created a conflict between Western nations that wish to broadcast programs internationally and the Soviet Union and less developed countries that wish to restrict the flow of Western information into their territories. This Article analyzes this conflict and considers various suggested regulatory approaches.


Japanese Companies On United States Soil: Treaty Privileges Vs. Title Vii Restraints, Matthew Orebic Jan 1986

Japanese Companies On United States Soil: Treaty Privileges Vs. Title Vii Restraints, Matthew Orebic

UC Law SF International Law Review

In a treaty entered into before domestic civil rights legislation was enacted, the United States granted Japanese companies doing business in the United States an unconditional right to hire upper-level management of their choice. Because many Japanese companies choose only to hire Japanese citizens for their upper-level management positions, a conflict exists between the rights granted under the treaty and the mandates of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. This Note examines this conflict and the attempts made by the Second and Fifth Circuits and the United States Supreme Court to reconcile treaty rights and ostensible Title VII violations.

Finders Keepers--The Titanic And The 1982 Law Of The Sea Convention, Cynthia Furrer Newton

UC Law SF International Law Review

The recent discovery of the Titanic some 500 miles off the coast of Canada has given rise to the question of who now "owns" the sunken vessel. This Note discusses the possible ownership rights to the Titanic within the framework of current international law. First, the author examines the customary international law of salvage and of finds, and identifies the inherent conflicts between the two doctrines. The author then discusses the effect of the 1982 Law of the Sea Convention, paying particular attention to its novel provisions regarding Objects of an Historical and Archeological Nature (OHANs). The author attempts to …


Baby Jane Doe: Stating A Cause Of Action Against The Officious Intermeddler, Michael Vitiello Jan 1986

Baby Jane Doe: Stating A Cause Of Action Against The Officious Intermeddler, Michael Vitiello

UC Law Journal

Parents of profoundly impaired neonates often face agonizing decisions regarding the exploitation of medical technologies that may prolong their child's existence but not be able to promise the child a normal life. Some pro-life advocates have attempted to intervene in that parental decision by resorting to litigation to compel life-sustaining treatment in particular cases. Although many find such officious intermeddling offensive, legal condemnation is uncertain. This Article argues that the second Restatement of Torts' formulation of the invasion of privacy tort is flexible enough to support a privacy action by the parents against officious intermeddlers. It first reviews the recent …

Terrorists And Special Status: The British Experience In Northern Ireland, Jay M. Spillane Jan 1986

Terrorists And Special Status: The British Experience In Northern Ireland, Jay M. Spillane

UC Law SF International Law Review

The political and social fragmentation of Northern Ireland is well known, and the violent tactics employed by some members of the warring communities are infamous. This Note examines the conflict between Britain's treatment for politically motivated criminals in Northern Ireland and the human rights guarantees provided in various international conventions. The author concludes that politically motivated terrorists are now treated differently from other criminals and, accordingly, should be accorded the status of "special prisoners," with corresponding human rights protections.
