Monitoring American Federalism: The History Of State Legislative Resistance, Christian G. Fritz

Faculty Book Display Case

As Americans have monitored federalism, they struggled with how a government based on sovereignty divided between nation and states might function. The Constitution’s shared sovereignty created an inherently dynamic federalism with almost continuous debates over the balance of power, making this testing of the balance of federalism and monitoring government central to the American constitutional order. Many constitutional debates involved the protection of slavery, yet other interests including debt, taxation, and police powers also played vital roles in shaping American federalism. State resistance to the national government utilizing the constitutional tool of interposition arose when the disequilibrium of federalism was …

Arbitration Of Erisa Statutory Claims, Kathryn L. Moore

Law Faculty Books and Chapters

In light of the flood of fiduciary litigation in recent years, some plan sponsors have considered amending their plans to include provisions requiring mandatory arbitration of claims and waivers of class action or collective claims. All things being equal, arbitration is potentially more efficient and less costly than litigation, and plan sponsors hope that mandatory arbitration and class action waivers may save them time and money in the current litigious environment. In fact, however, under the current state of the law, arbitration provisions may lead to protracted litigation and additional costs, including the cost of litigating the enforceability of the …
