Pride, Prejudice, And Japan's Unified State, Suzanne M. Sable
Pride, Prejudice, And Japan's Unified State, Suzanne M. Sable
University of the District of Columbia Law Review
Japan is undoubtedly one of the foremost economic powers in the world and is internationally recognized as a democratic leader among modern nations. The economy's rapid growth in the mid-twentieth century has been attributed to its booming technical industries, including its electronic and automobile industries. However, Japan is unique in that it has retained traditions associated with typically less advanced nations-namely, a regressive human rights agenda. Although cultural, ethnic, and social minorities continue to exist on Japanese soil today, Japan's social policy of Nihonjinron allows the majority of the population to disregard such minorities and perpetuate the government's vision of …

Prologue To District Of Columbia Democracy And The Third Branch Of Government, John W. Nields, Timothy J. May
University of the District of Columbia Law Review
Why does the President of the United States appoint the judges of the District of Columbia's local court system? Why is the District of Columbia's local court system funded and overseen by the United States Congress? Why does the United States Attorney for the District of Columbia and not the Attorney General for the District of Columbia function as a local prosecutor, prosecuting most D.C. Code crimes in the District of Columbia's courts? The four essays which follow this introduction explore the rich history behind these unusual structural features of the District of Columbia government; they present the arguments for …

Who Should Appoint Judges Of The D.C. Courts?, Charles A. Miller
University of the District of Columbia Law Review
Since 1970, the District of Columbia court system has been comprised of the District of Columbia Court of Appeals and the Superior Court of the District of Columbia.' From the time of the establishment of the District, judges of its courts have been appointed by the President of the United States, acting on the advice of the Attorney General. When the general issue of District home rule came before Congress in the 1960s, one of the subjects considered was the judicial appointment process. In 1970, the District of Columbia Court Reform and Criminal Procedure Act 2 continued the Presidential appointment …
Organization, Budgeting, And Funding Of The District Of Columbia's Local Courts, Peter R. Kolker
Organization, Budgeting, And Funding Of The District Of Columbia's Local Courts, Peter R. Kolker
University of the District of Columbia Law Review
The mechanism for funding the District of Columbia's local court system reflects the unique and complex character of the District. The means and method of budgeting for and funding this vital function has evolved over the years, reflecting the maturation of the District from its pre-Home Rule days to the present. This evolution is a reflection of the District's growing pains and financial crises, as well as the unusual symbiosis and tension between the District and the federal government. The budget system is also the product of the limitations imposed on the District's restricted taxing authority, which results in a …

From Slavery To Same-Sex Marriage: Comity Versus Public Policy In Inter-Jurisdictional Recognition Of Controversial Domestic Relations, Lynn D. Wardle
From Slavery To Same-Sex Marriage: Comity Versus Public Policy In Inter-Jurisdictional Recognition Of Controversial Domestic Relations, Lynn D. Wardle
BYU Law Review
Recognition across state and national borders of controversial forms of domestic relationships have existed throughout the history of conflict of laws, creating tension between two important principles: respect for comity and protection of valued domestic public policies. Drawing upon several examples, and particularly the history of international and intrastate recognition of slavery (a “domestic relationship”) in Anglo-American history, the article shows that despite the comity-based presumption of respect for legal status created in other jurisdictions, when strong public policies protective of domestic relations and status have been implicated, American states consistently have declined to give interstate recognition to those controversial …

The Failure Of Punitive Damages In Employment Discrimination Cases: A Call For Change, Joseph A. Seiner
The Failure Of Punitive Damages In Employment Discrimination Cases: A Call For Change, Joseph A. Seiner
William & Mary Law Review
Punitive damages were described by one early court as "an unsightly and an unhealthy excrescence." Although views toward punitive relief have changed over the years, the debate over the availability of exemplary damages in the judicial system has remained controversial. No place is that controversy more aptly demonstrated than in employment discrimination law, where punitive damages first became available in an amendment to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 after a bitter congressional debate. Almost a decade ago, in Kolstad v. American Dental Association, the Supreme Court provided guidance on how punitive damages should be applied in …
