Adr In The Digital Age: How Online Platforms Are Better Suited To Resolve Disputes Than Traditional Forums, Matthew Zelman

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution (CJCR) Blog

Since Covid-19 remote work has been increasing astronomically in the US. According to a Gallup poll, even now that Covid-19 is in the past, approximately 27% of workers are fully remote, 53% hybrid, and 21% fully on site. While there are significant benefits to working from home, there are detriments including losing key relationships with coworkers. As people could not physically see their coworkers in person and grow and learn from each other’s body language and personal observations, they started losing respect for each other. This led to an increase in conflicts amongst remote workers with one survey finding that …

Taxation’S Limits, Luís C. Calderón Gómez

Articles

Countless pages have been devoted to the question of why everyone should pay tax, yet its opposite has gone largely unnoticed: why should some people and organizations not pay tax? Our tax system exempts from ordinary income taxation a wide and diverse array of people and organizations engaged in significant economic activity—from parents providing childcare services for their family to consular activities and charities operating animal shelters—seemingly without a convincing explanation. Perhaps because of the dizzying diversity of tax-exempt activities, scholars and policymakers have avoided comprehensively or coherently justifying our exemption regimes.

This Article develops a novel normative theory that …

Defining The Scope Of Section 1 Of The Federal Arbitration Act: Recent Judicial Interpretations And Implications For The Gig Economy, Charlie Wiener

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution (CJCR) Blog

Section 1 of the Federal Arbitration Act states that “nothing herein contained shall apply to contracts of employment of seamen, railroad employees, or any other class of workers engaged in foreign or interstate commerce.” Since the turn of the millennium, the courts have found reason to define the exact limits of the scope of this exception. Notably, Circuit City Stores v. Adams, 532 U.S. 105 (2001), held that the exception in Section 1 must be read narrowly only to include transportation workers, otherwise the enumeration of seamen and railroad employees would not make sense.

The International Longshoremen’S Association Strike & Removing Public And Political Pressures From The Bargaining Table, Jilly Horowitz

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution (CJCR) Blog

The International Longshoremen’s Association (“ILA”) is the labor union that represents dockworkers in ports along the East Coast and Gulf of Mexico. The management counterpart to the ILA is the United States Maritime Alliance (“USMX”) which represents the various employers associated with the East and Gulf Coast ports. The most recent ILA-USMX master contract, or collective bargaining agreement, ran from October 1, 2018 to September 30, 2024 (the “2018 Agreement”). As ILA workers prepared for a new contract, their two main concerns were securing pay increases and continuing assurances that human jobs would not be replaced by automation.

Confronting The War On International Law In The United States, Rebecca Ingber

Online Publications

Harold Hongju Koh’s The National Security Constitution in the 21st Century is a code red threat assessment of the state of public law in America today. True to Koh’s nature, he does not leave us without hope; rather he devotes a sizeable portion of the book to calls for reform, from the legal frameworks governing war powers and intelligence to the division of labor in the national security legal bureaucracy plodding away within the deepest (secure) chambers of the executive branch itself.

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution (CJCR) Blog

The Biden administration has conducted the government’s first ever negotiations with pharmaceutical companies on the cost of life saving drugs. They have been able to negotiate prices down by nearly 80%. The drugs at the center of negotiations are ones that people are prescribed for years at a time in order to manage illnesses such as heart disease, Crohn’s disease, and more. In order to conduct these negotiations, the Biden administration used march-in rights built into the Bayh-Dole Act.

Cardozo News 2024

“Matthew Wansley, a professor at Yeshiva University’s Cardozo School of Law in New York who specializes in emerging automotive technologies, said the new investigation could be linked to Tesla’s decision to prioritize cameras in its automated systems. Other kinds of sensors like radar and the laser-based lidar can help detect obstacles even when visibility is poor. Musk has previously said that lidar was unnecessary and that automakers who relied on it were ‘doomed.’

Who Decides: Judges Or Experts? Loper Bright, The End Of Chevron And Its Impact On Corporate Governance, Heyman Center On Corporate Governance

2024 Event Invitations

In Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, 603 U.S. _____ (2024), the Supreme Court overruled the doctrine of Chevron deference, which had previously required courts to defer to reasonable agency guidance instead of reviewing rules and regulations de novo. Now that Chevron deference is no more, numerous regulations, rules, and opinions produced by federal agencies could be in jeopardy as they are newly subject to judicial review. In the corporate context, this could interfere with the implementation of ESG (environmental, social, and governance) principles, potentially leading to a re-tightening of shareholder primacy.

Challenging The Block: Analyzing The Bar Against California’S Enforcement Of Ab 51, Natalie Pearson

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution (CJCR) Blog

As of 2024, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California issued a permanent injunction, barring the enforcement of California’s Assembly Bill 51 (“AB 51”). California’s AB 51 was a state law aimed at prohibiting California employers from requiring arbitration agreements as a condition of employment, protecting workers from being forced into arbitration. The law was set to take effect in 2020 but was delayed by immediate legal challenges. After four years of litigation, the state law was permanently enjoined.
