Method of Instruction:
The educational program of the law school is designed to equip its graduates to render the highest quality of legal services, while instilling a sense of professional responsibility. The case method of instruction is used in many courses. The beginning student is trained in the analysis and solution of legal problems by the application of logical reasoning. The course of study is not designed to teach legal rules, but rather to provide a foundation for the application and analysis of the law and the development of professional skills. Substantive courses, dealing with the content of the law, …

These materials cover extensions of credit secured by a lien on personal property, sales of goods, commercial paper, credit cards, electronic funds transfer systems, and letters of credit. Some aspects of these subjects are regulated by federal statutes; some aspects are covered only by judicial decisions. Notwithstanding the important body of federal law and common law, the Uniform Commercial Code dominates this book.
An Empirical Case Study Of Informal Alternative Dispute Resolution, Ronald J. Bacigal
An Empirical Case Study Of Informal Alternative Dispute Resolution, Ronald J. Bacigal
Law Faculty Publications
The following Article is taken from that portion of Merhige's biography that addresses the Westinghouse uranium case of the 1970s, perhaps the first of the major "complex cases" to attract national attention. This case study provides an opportunity to examine a judicial decision making process involving four years of litigation, international discovery proceedings, judicial administrative guidelines, diverse national precepts of economics and politics, the interplay between the free market and multinational cartels and embargoes, and lastly, the personality of the trial judge. Shunning any pretense of passivity, Merhige initiated proceedings in the Westinghouse case by ignoring administrative protocol in order …
Gender Issues And The Prosser, Wade, And Schwartz Torts Casebook, Carl W. Tobias
Gender Issues And The Prosser, Wade, And Schwartz Torts Casebook, Carl W. Tobias
Law Faculty Publications
Feminist jurisprudence is burgeoning. During the 1980s, there has been much excellent work in areas such as legal theory and practice, women's legal history, and specific substantive fields of law. Some law faculty also have analyzed gender bias in legal casebooks. Moreover, the eighth edition of William Prosser's renowned Cases and Materials on Torts, the most widely used torts casebook in American law schools, is scheduled for classroom use in the autumn of 1988. All of these developments make this a promising time to consider gender issues and Prosser, Wade, and Schwartz. This paper is meant to begin that discussion …

A Hospital's Dilemma: The Legal Implications Of Promulgating Guidelines Concerning Human Immunodeficiency Virus, Leonard C. Heath Jr.
University of Richmond Law Review
Fear has struck the workplace. The source of this fear is not lack of job security, inflation, recession or a concern about the United States' trade imbalance. The source of the fear is a disease--Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS)-and the virus that causes AIDS, Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).

Annual Survey Of Virginia Law: Criminal Law And Procedure, Steven D. Benjamin
University of Richmond Law Review
A police officer's detention of a citizen is a "seizure" of the person for purposes of the fourth amendment, and must be reasonable in light of the totality of the circumstances. Significant police encounters fall into two categories-the brief investigatory detention and the more intrusive, full-blown arrest.
Annual Survey Of Virginia Law: Health Care Law, Steven D. Gravely
Annual Survey Of Virginia Law: Health Care Law, Steven D. Gravely
University of Richmond Law Review
The health care industry, known for its dynamics and constant change, lived up to its reputation throughout 1987 and early 1988. Continuing concern for the cost of hospital and physician services, availability of adequate health care services for the elderly, and the impact of the AIDS virus on health care delivery contributed to make this period a tumultuous one for the health care industry nationwide. Virginia was not spared the tumult. This article focuses on key legislative, regulatory, and judicial events of the past year, and evaluates their impact on the business of providing health care in the Commonwealth.

Appellate Delay As A Catalyst For Change In Virginia, Julie M. Carpenter
Appellate Delay As A Catalyst For Change In Virginia, Julie M. Carpenter
University of Richmond Law Review
A Virginia citizen injured in an automobile accident in 1988 who is denied compensation through trial court error will wait an average of 1,165 days (3.2 years) after trial for the Supreme Court of Virginia to rectify the matter. Of course, that wait is only for the seventeen percent of cases that the supreme court elects to review, since Virginia is one of the only states that grants no right of appeal in most civil and criminal cases. By way of limited contrast, a civil appeal in the North Carolina Supreme Court averages be- tween 241 days and 257 days. …
Monkeying Around With The Establishment Clause And Bashing Creation-Science, Gary C. Leedes
Monkeying Around With The Establishment Clause And Bashing Creation-Science, Gary C. Leedes
University of Richmond Law Review
This article examines the nature of scientific creationism and its educational value. Creation scientists and evolutionists study the origins of life, but their disagreements produce controversies that radiate far beyond the scientific community. Controversies about the content of science courses in public schools are widely reported in the press and have become political footballs. The debates between Clarence Darrow and William Jennings Bryan, and their contemporary counterparts, are the themes of motion pictures and plays. There is enormous public interest in the battle that is portrayed by combatants on both sides as a fight involving not only academic freedom but …

Annual Survey Of Virginia Law: Domestic Relations, Donald K. Butler
University of Richmond Law Review
In 1988, the Virginia General Assembly made two significant changes with respect to child support awards. First, the authority of the court has been extended so that the court may order support for a child over the age of eighteen who is still attending high school. In order to award support for a child who is no longer a minor, the child must be "(i) a full-time high school senior, (ii) not self-supporting and (iii) living in the home of the parent seeking or receiving child support, until the child reaches the age of nineteen or graduates from high school, …

Annual Survey Of Virginia Law: Handicap Law, Donald H. Stone
University of Richmond Law Review
Disabled persons represent approximately fifteen percent of the population of the United States, making this minority group one of the largest in American society. In Virginia, it is estimated that there are 750,000 disabled persons. Most of these people are dependent upon some form of governmental services ranging from state funded residential placement to more subtle accommodation such as a wheelchair ramp to provide access to public buildings. The degree to which handicapped citizens are integrated into the mainstream of society depends upon the availability of these services and the implementation of laws insuring access to them.

Annual Survey Of Virginia Law: Taxation, Carle E. Davis
University of Richmond Law Review
In its 1988 session, the Virginia General Assembly passed a multitude of bills amending and supplementing title 58.1 of the Code of Virginia (the "Code"). These bills affected a broad range of areas, including the individual and corporate income tax, the sales and use tax, the local business license tax, and the real estate and recordation taxes.

Annual Survey Of Virginia Law: Legal Issues Involving Children, Robert E. Shepherd Jr.
University of Richmond Law Review
This article last year noted the disturbing increase in the number of reported cases involving individuals prosecuted for the sexual abuse of children, and the persistence of legislative efforts to address the profound difficulties encountered by young children called as witnesses in those cases. This year, the General Assembly finally yielded to the urgings of those seeking changes in the law, and to the recommendations of a joint legislative subcommittee created in 1987 to study the problem of child abuse victims as witnesses in the courtroom. The subcommittee recommended the enactment of four bills in an effort to minimize the …
The Letter Of Credit As Security For Completion Of Streets, Sidewalks, And Other Bonded Municipal Improvements, James P. Downey
The Letter Of Credit As Security For Completion Of Streets, Sidewalks, And Other Bonded Municipal Improvements, James P. Downey
University of Richmond Law Review
When approving a land development project, municipalities require assurance that developers will construct the required public improvements, and that in the event of default, the surety will be responsive, so that the project will be completed promptly, without risk to the municipal treasury. A form of guarantee sometimes used is the letter of credit. The case law involving public improvement letters of credit is sparse, yet the contingent liability to municipalities from defaulted land developments, with illusory sureties, should not be underestimated.

Little House Of Horrors: May A Condominium Association Be Held Liable For Failure To Provide Adequate Security Or Maintenance In The Common Areas?, Phyllis M. Rubinstein, William A. Walsh Jr.
University of Richmond Law Review
The use of the condominium form of ownership has grown at a rapid pace. Since 1961, when Congress authorized the Federal Housing Administration to insure mortgages on condominium dwellings, the lawmaking bodies of every state and the District of Columbia have passed enabling legislation that provides for the creation of a condominium regime with a statutory base. The condominium is a unique form of property ownership, which now constitutes a significant percentage of all new housing starts. Although the development of the condominium has many positive aspects, the unique structure of a typical condominium regime has presented the legal community …
Response To Monkeying Around With The Establishment Clause, Lucien J. Dhooge
Response To Monkeying Around With The Establishment Clause, Lucien J. Dhooge
University of Richmond Law Review
In the limited space available for response to Professor Leedes article, there is much which merits further attention but which cannot escape the bonds of paginal constraint. With regard to these unaddressed disputes, the reader is directed to the discussions of the relative merits of the controversy contained within the articles. Given the broad differences in viewpoint between Professor Leedes and myself, it would be practically impossible to address all of our differences in this response for fear of the response devouring its parent article-in-chief. Bearing these limitations in mind, I tender my response to Professor Leedes' article.
From Scopes To Edwards: The Sixty-Year Evolution Of Biblical Creationism In The Public School Classroom, Lucien J. Dhooge
From Scopes To Edwards: The Sixty-Year Evolution Of Biblical Creationism In The Public School Classroom, Lucien J. Dhooge
University of Richmond Law Review
Few issues have generated as much controversy as the scope of the religion clauses of the first amendment to the United States Constitution within the setting of the public schools. Indeed, as Justice Brennan once stated, the courts have "encountered few issues more intricate or more demanding than that of the relationship between religion and the public schools." This controversy is not surprising in light of the important role played by the public schools in shaping the nation's thoughts, beliefs and institutions. It is a controversy without end; for as long as the public schools maintain their primary role in …

Response To From Scopes To Edwards, Gary C. Leedes
University of Richmond Law Review
Mr. Dhooge's one-dimensional article is designed to make us believe that the Louisiana legislature was overpowered by politically powerful biblicists who want science fiction introduced into the public schools. It is remarkable that the legislative history is not cited by Dhooge except for those portions which are included in the Court's distorted presentation of the record in Edwards v. Aguillard. Dhooge, echoing the Court, impugns the motives of Louisiana lawmakers who emphatically opposed improperly presented creation-science. It is difficult to credit Justice Brennan and Mr. Dhooge with a fair reading of the record when they cite snippets of testimony taken …
Unborn Child: Can You Be Protected?, Heather M. White
Unborn Child: Can You Be Protected?, Heather M. White
University of Richmond Law Review
Continuing medical advancement in the area of prenatal care' raises the question of when, if ever, the state may intervene in the life of a pregnant woman to protect her unborn child from abuse and neglect. This issue, though troublesome, can no longer be ignored. Since the Supreme Court's decision in Roe v. Wade, giving the pregnant woman the constitutional right to decide whether or not to terminate her pregnancy, there has been abundant controversy over the allowance of state intervention to protect the human fetus. This controversy necessarily entails a discussion as to when and in what manner the …
Virginia Public Schools- Student Rights, Todd Holliday
Virginia Public Schools- Student Rights, Todd Holliday
University of Richmond Law Review
"At common law the education of the child by the State was unknown. In Virginia, the idea that the welfare of the State could be advanced by the education of the masses was first advanced by Mr. [Thomas] Jefferson." Virginia, as well as all other states, has established a system of public education. The great benefits of the public school system undoubtedly enhance both the individual and society as a whole. Nevertheless, if Thomas Jefferson, the father of this great institution, were able to observe the current conditions of public schools, he would, as the saying goes, "roll over in …
