The Future Of The Criminal Legal System: How Should A Multidoor Criminal Courthouse Operate?, Cardozo Journal Of Conflict Resolution

2023 Event Invitations

As the push for criminal legal reform continues around the world and the impact of progressive prosecutors or bail reform is still being unpacked, the future of the criminal legal system is up for debate. Much like the creation of the multidoor civil courthouse—with options for negotiation, mediation, and other processes—what should a multidoor criminal courthouse look like in the future? How should evolving processes of restorative justice, problem solving courts, diversion sentencing, bail reform, and plea bargaining be structured and integrated in the future? What should the role of judges, prosecutors, defense attorneys, crime victims, defendants and the public …

The United States Must Do More To Protect Immigrants From Legal Fraud, Olivia Hendelman

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

Earlier this month, counsel for Fareed Heera filed a complaint seeking review of his permanent residence (i.e. green card) application, on the grounds that Heera was victimized by his attorneys. The federal government denied Heera’s application due to fraud and misrepresentation. Heera’s counsel argues that law firms deceived Heera on two separate occasions when they filed petitions containing factual misrepresentations of which Heera was not aware. The complaint further explains that Heera did not intend to commit fraud by using misrepresentations; rather, he was preyed upon when relying on his attorneys to navigate a legal process unfamiliar to him. Ultimately, …

Common Sense Recommendations For The Application Of Tax Law To Digital Assets, Luís Calderón Gómez, Young Ran (Christine) Kim, Edward A. Zelinsky

Online Publications

In response to the Joint Committee on Taxation’s July 2023 request for comments on application of various Internal Revenue Code sections on digital assets, we propose a consistent set of rules to apply current law to digital assets. We highlight that the underlying economics and characteristics of transactions should be the primary concern for the application of rules and the valuation of digital assets. We believe any digital asset rules should (1) treat classes of digital assets with unique characteristics differently based on their economics, (2) minimize incentives for users to engage in tax-motivated structuring of transactions, and (3) allow …

From Maritime Pushbacks To Naval Blockade: How Europe Is Drowning In Legal Pitfalls, Martine Bjørnstad

Cardozo International & Comparative Law Review (CICLR) Blog

As if haunted by the past, the headlines are once again filled with cautionary tales of Europe’s unsecure borders and looming migration crisis. The arrival of 11,000 migrants on the Italian island of Lampedusa in early September, amidst deadlocked negotiations over the European Union’s New Pact on Migration and Asylum, has again sparked debate in Europe about how to tackle illegal immigration from North Africa. The proposed solution that has perhaps drawn the most attention is that of a naval blockade.

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal (AELJ) Blog

The U.S. government’s recent but unusual push to negotiate drug prices has struck a chord with many Americans, with polls showing a significant, bipartisan majority favoring the action.This action presents an opportunity to appreciate medical patents’ role in spurring innovation forward. Amid changing policies, medical patents shape the accessibility and affordability of care through their impact on drug pricing.
