The Political Offense Exception As Applied In French Cases Dealing With The Extradition Of Terrorists, Thomas E. Carbonneau
The Political Offense Exception As Applied In French Cases Dealing With The Extradition Of Terrorists, Thomas E. Carbonneau
Michigan Journal of International Law
This article does not attempt to deal with all of the multifarious aspects of contemporary terrorism; its ambition is much more modest in scope, centering upon traditional legal mechanisms and doctrines that can be adapted to deal with terrorism. Using the decisional law of France as an illustrative model, this article analyzes the transnational and political character of terrorist acts and seeks to establish the implications of those characteristics for litigation dealing with the extradition of terrorist offenders. Several assumptions underlie the analysis. First, the effort to repress international crime is seen as a laudable objective of the international legal …
A Right Of Fair Dismissal: Enforcing A Statutory Guarantee, Janice R. Bellace
A Right Of Fair Dismissal: Enforcing A Statutory Guarantee, Janice R. Bellace
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
Support for the concept that employees should be protected against wrongful dismissal continues to grow in this country. Yet, many advocates of protection have thus far refrained from venturing into the legislative arena. Even though the movement to achieve this protection is still at an early stage, it is not too soon to focus on specific proposals designed to translate ideals into protections. By failing to coalesce behind a single proposal, supporters have retarded the progress of the movement. Without a proposal for specific legislation, supporters lack a rallying point and legislators have nothing concrete to debate. This Article attempts …
Litigation Abuse And The Law Schools, John W. Reed
Litigation Abuse And The Law Schools, John W. Reed
Articles
At the Ninth Circuit Judicial Conference in July, 1983, one session was devoted to a discussion of "Excessive Discovery: A Symptom of Litigation Abuse." (Without knowing, I would guess that a similar title appeared on just about every judicial conference program this year-and last year, and the one before that.) Frank Rothman, President of MGM/United Artists, addressed the subject from the point of view of a corporate client, and his remarks are printed in this issue, beginning at page 342. Judges and trial lawyers expressed their views. And I was asked to comment on the extent to which the law …
Extradition From Israel, M. Dennis Gouldman
Extradition From Israel, M. Dennis Gouldman
Michigan Journal of International Law
Following an introduction, the main part of the article will review the law of extradition from Israel-a subject about which little is known outside this country. The discussion will focus on the decisions and practices of both the judiciary and the executive. The remainder of the article will consider special problems that have arisen in Israel as a country with an "open gate" immigration policy for the Jews of the world and a new unwillingness to hand over its own nationals for trial and sentence abroad.
I. Review Of Foreign Laws, Michigan Journal Of International Law
I. Review Of Foreign Laws, Michigan Journal Of International Law
Michigan Journal of International Law
The selection of national law summaries which follows is designed to enable the reader to survey the spectrum of domestic laws governing jurisdiction and judicial assistance. The reader may also find the summaries to be a useful starting point for further research. While the summaries vary somewhat in scope and degree of specificity, the differences are attributable to a desire to provide reasonably authoritative-rather than speculative- synopses of the law.
Iii. Recent French Extradition Cases, Michigan Journal Of International Law
Iii. Recent French Extradition Cases, Michigan Journal Of International Law
Michigan Journal of International Law
This section of the appendix contains the first published collection of recent French extradition cases dealing with the application of the political offense exception to terrorists. Because of the selective fashion in which French decisional law is reported, many French extradition cases are never reproduced in any French case reporter. The purpose of this appendix is to provide an English speaking audience with the substance of opinions which are otherwise nearly impossible to obtain. The editors hope that this collection will aid comparative research and contribute to an informed debate on the political offense exception.
