Nobody Understands My Language: An International Human Rights Crisis In U.S. Detention Centers, Kayla He

Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review (CICLR) Blog

Since 2016 when President Trump was elected, immigration has become a popular and polarizing topic in America. President Trump supported a hardline immigration policy of preventing migrants from entering the country by actively arresting and detaining migrants. Many human rights experts expressed concerns over the human rights violations at the United States-Mexico border as well as in detention centers. For instance, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) published a report describing the lack of medical access and supplies for basic needs at detention centers. The report indicated that oftentimes, migrants were detained without knowing when they would be released, and …

The Unwelcoming Bench: Understanding Hostile Architecture’S Potential Legal Issues, Jenna Rosenstein

On January 12, 2024, the Supreme Court agreed to hear the case of City of Grants Pass, Oregon v. Johnson to resolve the issue of whether an Oregon city’s regulation on public camping constitutes “cruel and unusual” punishment under the Eighth Amendment. The City of Grants Pass enacted three different ordinances that “prohibit sleeping on public sidewalks or streets and camping on streets, parks, or other publicly owned property.” If violated, the offender is “subject to civil citations and can be barred from entering a city park for 30 days. The challengers, three unhoused city residents, sought to block the …

Arbitration In Professional Sports: Is It Time To Move On?, Alessandra Makris

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution (CJCR) Blog

Arbitration clauses are extremely common in the contracts of athletes all over the world. However, with the recent focus on eliminating mandatory arbitration clauses in employment contracts, the question of whether professional sports leagues will start doing the same remains. In the world of professional sports, arbitration clauses can often be found within a Collective Bargaining Agreement (“CBA”) between a players’ association and an owners’ group. Five major professional sports have arbitration clauses in their CBAs: Major League Baseball (“MLB”), National Basketball Association (“NBA”), National Football League (“NFL”), Major League Soccer (“MLS”) and National Hockey League (“NHL”). Typically, the clauses …

Judicial Ethics: Everyone Can Learn, Tamerick Gilyard

Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review (CICLR) Blog

The success of international courts, and our domestic courts, depends to a large extent upon the integrity and impartiality of those who decide the cases that come before them. For the institutional integrity of all courts, judicial ethics is of the utmost importance and vital for both the international and domestic courts. Most recently, the United States Supreme Court has come under fire because of the lack of ethical rules to guide or govern the justices’ behavior. The Supreme Court members are granted lifetime appointments, but are not subject to mandatory ethical rules. Alternatively, lower federal court judges do have …

Path To Progress: The Smarter Sentencing Act's Potential To Redefine U.S. Sentencing Norms, Emily K. Abrams

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

Over the past fifty years, the United States has witnessed a staggering increase in its prison population. Between 1973 and 2009, the nation’s prison populations increased seven-fold, at one point growing at a rate of eight percent annually. According to 2023 estimates, roughly 1.9 million individuals were incarcerated in the United States. This stark reality has fueled national discourse on the issue of mass incarceration and contributing policies such as sentencing practices. One such sentencing practice that impacts mass incarceration is statutory mandatory minimums.

Banning Trans Student-Athletes Won't "Save Women's Sports", Laura Tierney

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

In the past few years, a wave of anti-LGBTQ+ legislation has been passed in the House of Representatives and state legislatures. As of February 2024, twenty-five states have laws or regulations which ban “transgender students from participating in sports consistent with their gender identity.” With deceiving names like the “Save Women’s Sports Act” and the “Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act of 2023,” these laws discriminate against trans student-athletes, purportedly in the name of fairness and women’s empowerment .The stark reality is that these bills do nothing to cultivate fairness and safety for student-athletes and do not further …

Crypto And Arbitration: The Perfect Pair, Jared Bond

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution (CJCR) Blog

While Cryptocurrency was once seen as the forefront of unique new investment opportunities, early 2022, known as the “Crypto Winter” saw a steep decline in cryptocurrency prices.[1] The fall of cryptocurrency led to an increase in crypto arbitration, with some cases just starting to reach the court system.[2] Due to the international nature of cryptocurrency and the unique challenges disputes present, many crypto businesses include arbitration clauses in their contracts.[3] While not yet clear how many of these issues will ultimately be resolved, there are clear benefits for crypto companies using arbitration as their chosen dispute resolution process, and certain …

Sequel: Negotiation Strategies Sag-Aftra And Amptp Should Employ To Prevent Future Strikes, Molly Baraban

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution (CJCR) Blog

The Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio (“SAG-AFTRA”) strike finally ended on November 9th, after months of contentious dealings between the two groups centering on concerns over the future of acting and the ability to compensate talent fairly. While we can now all finally celebrate the anticipated return of our favorite shows like Euphoria, House of the Dragon, and Stranger Things, we should also take a moment to critically analyze why SAG-AFTRA and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (“AMPTP”) have historically continued to have conflict and how these groups can learn to negotiate better to …

Can The Ada Protect Persons With Disabilities In Their Ability To Get To Work?, Jack Gatcliffe

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

James Kimmons worked at a Charter Communications call center. He suffered cataracts in both eyes, which made it difficult to drive in the dark. Kimmons requested a modification to his work schedule, seeking permission to work earlier hours so he could commute home in the daylight. Notably, the work-schedule accommodation Kimmons sought is one that many other Americans may need, as 22.8% of all working age adults are considered accommodation-sensitive and 47% to 58% “of those who would actually benefit from a workplace accommodation do not receive one.” His employer granted his request for a short period of time but …
