Why Greco-Turkish Conflict Needs American Intervention: A Meaningful Mediator, Lemonia Tzanides

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution (CJCR) Blog

Tensions between the Greek and Turkish governments have soared over territorial claims in the Aegean, chiefly concerning the delimitation of territorial waters. The conflict arose on January 20th, 2021, when the Greek parliament nearly unanimously passed a law extending the breadth of Greece’s territorial waters in the Aegean Sea towards Turkey. While bilateral treaties exist between Turkey and Libya and between Greece and Egypt, each regulating the maritime zones of the contracting states, no such agreement exists between Greece and Turkey. “These agreements, however, have no legal effect on Greece and Turkey because international agreements must not harm nor benefit …

Mediation Between States And Criminal Defendants For Post-Conviction Relief Under State Dna Statutes, Nowshin Nawal

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution (CJCR) Blog

With new advances in DNA technology, it has become easier to use DNA testing to find perpetrators of crime where DNA evidence is present. Many incarcerated individuals claiming innocence seek to have the evidence tested during post-conviction in light of new technology. Forty-seven states now have DNA statutes that allow testing during the post-conviction stage. A new problem arises because state prosecutors are often reluctant to agree to DNA testing, which leaves litigation as the remaining method—which is inefficient. The process would be more efficient if a third party worked with the state and the defendant.

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights and Social Justice (ERSJ) Blog

Cities around the nation are facing housing shortages as the costs of homes soar and the supply of affordable rentals continue to decline. Rental costs severely burden American households, as “almost half of renter households (21.6 million) spend more than 30 percent of their income on rent and 11.6 million households spend more than 50 percent of their income on rent.“ Additionally, 44 percent of rental households have reported “feeling pressure” to move from their homes for a range of reasons, including increased rent, inflation, power imbalances with their landlords, lack of repairs, and threats of eviction.

El Salvador’S Bitcoin Bond Is Finally Here!, Douglas Notaris

Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review (CICLR) Blog

In 2021, President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador had a bold vision for the nation. He aspired for El Salvador to transform into a “bitcoin haven.” Now, what does this mean, you may be wondering? Well, it all traces back to the enactment of the “Bitcoin Law” on September 7, 2021. With the passage of this law, El Salvador became the first, and still the only, country to designate Bitcoin as legal tender.This meant that every Salvadoran business was obligated to adopt Bitcoin for transactions, taxes could be settled using Bitcoin, and the government had the capacity to disburse subsidies …

From Conflict To Resolution: The Advantages Of Mediation In Estate Planning, Sarah Natanov

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution (CJCR) Blog

Estate planning involves advanced planning for managing and distributing one’s assets following their passing. It entails identifying inheritors among individuals or entities and establishing measures to ensure the seamless execution of these wishes, aiming to minimize future complications. Estate planning documents often used to distribute assets after one’s passing are wills, trusts, and other legal documents. While these documents may serve as a roadmap for asset distribution, they may not invariably preclude disputes or conflicts among beneficiaries or family members.

Is The Future Private? A Look Into Litigation Under Illinois’S “Bipa” Law, Paige Green

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal (AELJ) Blog

At Meta’s 2019 “F8” virtual development conference, Mark Zuckerberg stood in front of a presentation screen displaying the words, “the future is private.” Zuckerberg’s talking points centered on “build[ing] a more privacy-focused social media platform.” Increasing Meta’s focus on privacy, apparently, does not include ensuring compliance with Illinois’s Biometric Information Privacy Act (“BIPA”). While not exactly the first of its kind, a recent class action lawsuit against Meta alleges the company violated Illinois’s BIPA law by capturing, retaining, and profiting from the use of plaintiff’s “voiceprint” without disclosing or creating a meaningful retention policy for doing so.
