Statutory Compliance And Tort Liability: Examining The Strongest Case, Michael D. Green
Statutory Compliance And Tort Liability: Examining The Strongest Case, Michael D. Green
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
Professor Green addresses the matter of the proper balance between the tort system and regulation in the context of prescription drugs and the FDA's vigorous oversight of the industry. He articulates several reasons why a regulatory compliance defense, in which tort law would defer to FDA regulation, is quite attractive. Despite the superior expertise of the FDA in assessing the benefits and risks of a drug, a regulatory compliance defense is considerably more problematical than might appear at first glance. Ascertaining compliance with FDA requirements could be a lengthy and complicated inquiry that would either replace or supplement the issues …

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
Artificial insemination by donor is becoming an increasingly popular means to achieving parenthood.

However, case studies reveal the inherent dangers of artificial insemination, namely the lack of proper screening methods to avoid passing genetic diseases to children born by artificial insemination. State-by-state regulation, federal guidelines, and private adjudication have all proven to be inadequate methods of regulating the artificial insemination industry. Ginsberg proposes federal regulation as the only means of achieving a safe artificial …
Schizophrenia Among Carriers: How Common And Private Carriers Trade Places, Rob Frieden
Schizophrenia Among Carriers: How Common And Private Carriers Trade Places, Rob Frieden
Michigan Telecommunications & Technology Law Review
This article will examine court cases and actions by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that distort the traditional concepts of common and private carriage by establishing new rights and responsibilities previously applicable to the other category of carrier. This article will also consider the feasibility of (a) maintaining the traditional common carrier regulatory model and (b) continuing the application of that model to basic services provided by local exchange carriers (LECs). This is especially important as LECs qualify to become private carriers tapping new market opportunities, even within the same geographical region where they provide basic services. Finally, this article …
The "Solely Criminal Purpose" Defense To The Enforcement Of Irs Summonses, Darius J. Mehraban
The "Solely Criminal Purpose" Defense To The Enforcement Of Irs Summonses, Darius J. Mehraban
Michigan Law Review
Recent years have witnessed a gradual erosion of the practical distinctions between the civil and criminal investigations performed by federal administrative agencies. This trend arose naturally from a growing number of federal statutes and regulations that carry both civil and criminal penalties for their violation. Administrative agencies today wield investigative summons power almost as expansive as the grand jury subpoena power and can use that power to investigate without first deciding whether criminal or civil liability ultimately will be sought. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has participated to some extent in this intermingling of civil and criminal inquiry - with …
