The State's Interest In The Preservation Of Life: From Quinlan To Cruzan, Philip G. Peters Jr. Jan 1989

The State's Interest In The Preservation Of Life: From Quinlan To Cruzan, Philip G. Peters Jr.

Faculty Publications

This article considers the kinds of limits on withholding that each of these policies might plausibly support, compares these limits to the judicial approaches taken in the refusal of treatment cases, and explores how apparent conflicts between these state goals and the interests of the patients might be resolved. Because this article focuses exclusively on the state's interests, however, it necessarily isolates and considers only one portion of a complex problem involving the interests of patients, families, providers, and others. No comprehensive examination of the nature and weight of the patient's interests or those of other involved parties is attempted. …

Recent Developments: The Uniform Arbitration Act

Journal of Dispute Resolution

The U.A.A. provides that "[a] written agreement to submit any existing controversy to arbitration . . . is valid, enforceable and irrevocable, save upon such grounds as exist at law or in equity for the revocation of any contract. "5 Courts and legislatures alike routinely state the policies promoting arbitration. Because most states favor the settlement of disputes through arbitration, there is a tendency for courts to find a valid arbitration agreement

Journal of Dispute Resolution

This Comment is designed to facilitate the understanding of the white collar criminal plea bargaining process "which is not as open to the public view" and illuminate the actors' "carefully planned clash of positions." There is more to this process than a plea of guilty to reduced charges. The order of ideas in this Comment should be considered as both chronological and at times interactive depending on the facts and law of each case.

How Existing Procedures Shape Alternatives: The Case Of Grievance Mediation, Deborah M. Kolb

Journal of Dispute Resolution

Mediation is one of the oldest and most ubiquitous forms of conflict resolution in American society and throughout the world. Traditionally a prominent adjunct to labor and international negotiation, mediation is now used in divorce, family, civil, consumer, commercial and employee relations, environmental planning and siting, and the development of governmental procedures and regulations.' As mediation has penetrated into these new areas of social life, curiosity about the practice of mediation, that is, what mediators actually do to bring about settlement, has increased.

Early Neutral Evaluation: The Second Phase, David I. Levine

Journal of Dispute Resolution

The federal court for the Northern District of California has operated an experimental program in expedited dispute resolution called Early Neutral Evaluation (ENE) since 1985. After a lengthy and careful period of analysis and revision of the program, the Court has permanently adopted ENE on the basis of considerable evidence that it is an effective way to improve the resolution of civil disputes and on the basis of the strong endorsement of the program by those who have participated in it. This report first briefly describes ENE and the results from the author's study of the initial pilot phase. It …

Sour Lemon: Federal Preemption Of Lemon Law Regulations Of Informal Dispute Settlement Mechanisms - Motor Vehicle Manufacturers Association V. Abrams, A, David P. Hiatt Jan 1989

Sour Lemon: Federal Preemption Of Lemon Law Regulations Of Informal Dispute Settlement Mechanisms - Motor Vehicle Manufacturers Association V. Abrams, A, David P. Hiatt

Journal of Dispute Resolution

Federal preemption of state "lemon laws" is a relatively recent development in the battle between federal and state law for control of regulation in the consumer protection area. Although preemption is the key issue upon which Motor Vehicle Manufacturers Association v. Abrams 2 was decided, the outcome affects the continued viability of manufacturers to establish workable settlement mechanisms to handle the resolution of disputes with consumers. The court, in holding the New York "Lemon Law"3 preempted by the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act4 , determined that the federal policy of encouraging manufacturers to voluntarily establish dispute resolution mechanisms outweighed New York's efforts …

Mediation Interventions And Restorative Potential: A Case Study Of Juvenile Restitution, Harry Mika, Kimberley Cole, Anmarie Aylward Jan 1989

Mediation Interventions And Restorative Potential: A Case Study Of Juvenile Restitution, Harry Mika, Kimberley Cole, Anmarie Aylward

Journal of Dispute Resolution

This paper explores a far less prevalent variant of juvenile restitution, distinguished by the use of mediation to reconcile victims and offenders and to establish the specific terms of restitution by consensus. In addition to general discussions of restitution and mediation, a more focused descriptive profile of mediation interventions in juvenile restitution for Dallas, Texas, is presented. Drawing from case materials and the direct involvement of the authors as third party neutrals in juvenile restitution, the mediation component of this program is further scrutinized for its adequacy for addressing needs of victims and offenders within what Zehr identifies as retributive …

Setting The Standard For Overturning An Arbitrator's Award That Violates Public Policy - United Paperworkers International V. Misco, Inc., Brian Darling Jan 1989

Setting The Standard For Overturning An Arbitrator's Award That Violates Public Policy - United Paperworkers International V. Misco, Inc., Brian Darling

Journal of Dispute Resolution

For over forty years, the United States Supreme Court has recognized the principle that great deference is to be given by the courts to the decisions of arbitrators.2 The Court has applied this same deferential standard in reviewing arbitration awards which are challenged on the basis of being in violation of public policy.3 The well settled rule is that a court must enforce the award unless it violates a well defined, explicit public policy that is ascertained "by reference to the laws and legal precedents and not from general considerations of supposed public interest."4 Recently, the Supreme Court reaffirmed this …
