The Role Of Internet Intermediaries In Tackling Terrorism Online, Raphael Cohen-Almagor Nov 2017

The Role Of Internet Intermediaries In Tackling Terrorism Online, Raphael Cohen-Almagor

Fordham Law Review

Gatekeeping is defined as the work of third parties “who are able to disrupt misconduct by withholding their cooperation from wrongdoers.”1 Internet intermediaries need to be far more proactive as gatekeepers than they are now. Socially responsible measures can prevent the translation of violent thoughts into violent actions. Designated monitoring mechanisms can potentially prevent such unfortunate events. This Article suggests an approach that harnesses the strengths and capabilities of the public and private sectors in offering practical solutions to pressing problems. It proposes that internet intermediaries should fight stringently against terror and further argues that a responsible gatekeeping approach is …


Terrorist Advocacy And Exceptional Circumstances, David S. Han Nov 2017

Terrorist Advocacy And Exceptional Circumstances, David S. Han

Fordham Law Review

This Article proceeds as follows. Part I discusses the harmful effects of terrorist advocacy and outlines the present doctrinal treatment of such speech. Part II discusses the issue of exceptional circumstances and highlights the two approaches courts might take to account for them: applying strict scrutiny to the case at hand or broadly reformulating the First Amendment’s doctrinal boundaries. Part III sets forth my central thesis: courts should adhere to case-by-case strict scrutiny analysis, rather than broad doctrinal reformulation, as the initial means of accounting for exceptional circumstances with respect to terrorist advocacy. This approach reflects the vital importance of …


Containing The Uncontainable: Drawing Rico’S Border With The Presumption Against Extraterritoriality, Miranda Lievsay Mar 2016

Containing The Uncontainable: Drawing Rico’S Border With The Presumption Against Extraterritoriality, Miranda Lievsay

Fordham Law Review

In Morrison v. National Australia Bank Ltd., the Supreme Court created a two-step test governing the extraterritorial reach of all federal statutes, radically altering the application of U.S. laws. Nowhere has this decision caused more upheaval than in the context of analyzing claims under the Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO). While courts widely agree that RICO does not apply extraterritorially, courts vehemently disagree about the proper standard to determine when a RICO case is appropriately domestic or impermissibly foreign. This Note explores RICO’s origins, its legislative history, and the evolution of its extraterritorial application in Morrison’s …

Relations Between The Maritimes And The Supreme Court Of Canada: The Patterns Of The Early Years, James G. Snell Oct 1984

Relations Between The Maritimes And The Supreme Court Of Canada: The Patterns Of The Early Years, James G. Snell

Dalhousie Law Journal

When establishment of a supreme court for the young Canadian Confederation was first mooted after 1867, reaction in the Maritimes was strikingly positive. The Halifax Morning Chronicle, for example, which by no means was yet reconciled to the new British North American union and which saw the court quite accurately as "securing and centralizing the judicial authority in Canada," nevertheless conceded the indispensability of such an institution: If this Confederation continues to exist of course such a court will be a necessity. There must be a central and paramount authority and other things being favourable we would support the bill …

Constitutional Law--Taxation--Equal Education: A Public School Financing Proposal For West Virginia, Elba Gillenwater Jr., Gregory R. Gorrell Oct 1972

Constitutional Law--Taxation--Equal Education: A Public School Financing Proposal For West Virginia, Elba Gillenwater Jr., Gregory R. Gorrell

West Virginia Law Review

Public education is typically a state function. Yet in all states except Hawaii, primary responsibility and control have rested with the local school boards. These local boards have depended upon the property tax as a primary source of revenue. Recent judicial decisions have struck down some educational financing systems as being in violation of the equal protection clause of the fourteenth amendment. This note will discuss the constitutional issues raised by these decisions and present a statistical analysis of West Virginia's existing system. The purpose is to determine if these decisions are significant to West Virginia's method of funding public …

Criminal Law-Confessions-Admission Of Illegally Obtained Confession In State Criminal Prosecution Is Harmless Error Not Requiring Reversal Of Conviction--People V. Jacobson, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

Defendant voluntarily admitted that he had murdered his daughter to a social worker, two ambulance attendants, and three police officers sent to investigate the incident. He continued to declare his guilt to these officers after his arrest, on the way to the police station, and at the police station where he was interrogated without the benefit of counsel although he had not waived his right to counsel. All of the confessions-approximately ten-were admitted in evidence at the defendant's trial over his objection that the two confessions obtained during the interrogation should have been excluded since he had been denied his …
