Compensation Neurosis: A Workers' Compensation Phenomenon, Kathryn V. Natale
Compensation Neurosis: A Workers' Compensation Phenomenon, Kathryn V. Natale
Antioch Law Journal
The developing battle of workers' compensation law related to mental and nervous injuries has recently expanded to include the phenomenon of compensation neurosis-one of the most controversial terms in the medico-legal lexicon.2 This comment will explore the legitimacy and viability of compensation neurosis as a compensable personal injury in the compensation context. The reader should take note that compensation neurosis is in its infancy and that any vagueness with respect to the law or case analysis reflects the state of the law today.
The Adoptee's Right To Know: In Re Adoption Of A Female Infant, Zvi Greismann
The Adoptee's Right To Know: In Re Adoption Of A Female Infant, Zvi Greismann
Antioch Law Journal
Among the most difficult questions arising out of an adoption is whether a record should be reopened at the request of an adult adoptee seeking information about his or her biological parents. In most jurisdictions an adoptee seeking this information must obtain a court order.'Adoption proceedings are statutory and, therefore, proceedings to unseal records are governed by state adoption laws. However,existing statutory standards are vague. Ultimately the decision to grant or deny access is a discretionary one lying with the courts.Further, in exercising their discretion, courts are faced with the difficult problem of resolving potentially conflicting interests of the adoptee, …
The Fourth Amendment Standard For Searches Of Students By School Officials: Reasonable Suspicion Or Probable Cause?, Lois Yankowski
The Fourth Amendment Standard For Searches Of Students By School Officials: Reasonable Suspicion Or Probable Cause?, Lois Yankowski
Antioch Law Journal
The fourth amendment rights of students subjected to searches by school administrators or teachers has been the subject of much legal debate and confusion.' The Supreme Court has never considered the issue of search and seizure in the schools and has never addressed even the more general question of whether fourth amendment protections apply to juveniles. The lower courts which have examined the school search issue, with one exception,2 have provided students with substantially less fourth amendment protection than adults in non-school environments enjoy. These courts have focused on the in loco parentis status of school officials and have found …

Part II …
Administrative Detention In Israel And The Occupied Territories, Richard Gladstein
Administrative Detention In Israel And The Occupied Territories, Richard Gladstein
Antioch Law Journal
Administrative detention in any form curtails civil liberties. Yet the vast majority of countries use administrative detention in times of perceived national emergency.' In an enduring state of crisis, Israel has enacted an administrative detention statute designed to safeguard the security of the state and the due process rights of detainees. This comment will examine preventive detention in Israel and the occupied territories in the context of Israeli and international law.2Administrative detention refers to the confinement of individuals by the executive branch of government for imperative security reasons.3 Such detention frequently involves more flexible rules of procedure, evidence, conviction, and …
The Impact Of Smith V. Maryland On The Law Of Pen Registers, Mark Bialek
The Impact Of Smith V. Maryland On The Law Of Pen Registers, Mark Bialek
Antioch Law Journal
In Smith v. Maryland,' the Supreme Court was presented with the question of whether the installation and use of a pen register2 constitutes a "search" under the fourth amendment.3 The pen register is a device which can be used to determine the telephone numbers dialed from a phone under investigation or the number of rings on calls coming into the phone. The question was raised by petitioner Michael Lee Smith, who was convicted of robbery, at least in part, based on evidence obtained from the installation and use of a pen register.4 Smith claimed that the use of a pen …
