Responding to the trend of media rights being subjugated through the legal process, this article examines Justice Stewart's suggestion that the media should be treated with extra deference in First Amendment cases. This examination looks at the sufficiency of the press's claim of judicial harshness, whether the press should be treated differently than other speakers, and also compares press freedom in foreign nations.

Georgia Patsy, a white female secretary, brought a civil rights action under section 1983 of title 42 of the United States Code against Florida International University in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida, alleging employment discrimination in violation of the Constitution and laws of the United States. The district court dismissed the action for failure to exhaust state administrative remedies. The Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit reversed on the ground that failure to allege exhaustion of state remedies did not preclude a section 1983 cause of action. On rehearing en banc, the court …

Thurgood Marshall And The Forgotten Legacy Of Brown V. Board Of Education, Kenneth F. Ripple
Thurgood Marshall And The Forgotten Legacy Of Brown V. Board Of Education, Kenneth F. Ripple
Journal Articles
On May 17, 1979, the United States celebrated, with relatively little public ceremony, the twenty-fifth anniversary of Brown v. Board of Education. Two years earlier, another anniversary was celebrated even more quietly as Thurgood Marshall, the principal architect of the school desegregation litigation, celebrated his first decade as a justice of the Supreme Court of the United States. Anniversaries are traditionally a time both of celebration and reflection. These particular anniversaries are appropriate occasions for celebration since each marks an important milestone in American life. At the same time, both present a unique opportunity for reflection upon and reassessment of …

In addressing the subject of "reverse discrimination," I want to caution at the outset against permitting the use of the word "discrimination" to prejudice consideration of the subject. "Discrimination" has, in recent years, become a bad word. It tends to be used as a shorthand for "unjustifiably unequal treatment." In its original and still proper meaning, however, the word is quite neutral. Discrimination merely means differentiation. It comes from a Latin word that means "to distinguish." Accordingly, when we discriminate-i.e., when we differentiate or distinguish-among people, the propriety of our action depends upon the reasons that we have acted as …
Standing To Sue In Fair Housing Cases, Robert G. Schwemm
Standing To Sue In Fair Housing Cases, Robert G. Schwemm
Law Faculty Scholarly Articles
Few procedural issues have commanded more attention from the Supreme Court in recent years than standing. The question of who is a proper party to bring a particular claim has arisen in a variety of contexts, but the Court has been especially active in addressing standing problems in cases concerning allegations of housing discrimination. The recent decision of Gladstone Realtors v. Village of Bellwood marked the fifth time in the past decade that the justices have decided a fair housing case on standing grounds.
The Supreme Court's determination to emphasize standing issues in many of its early fair housing opinions …

A familiar passage in Professors Hart and Wechsler's casebook likens the relationship between federal and state law to that which exists between statutes and the common law. The underlying idea is that federal law rests upon a substructure of state law. "It builds upon legal relationships established by the states, altering or supplanting them only so far as necessary for [its] special purpose."' A similar relationship exists between state and federal judicial systems. State courts are courts of general jurisdiction, assumed to have authority to adjudicate controversies unless Congress has displaced them by conferring exclusive jurisdiction on federal courts. Federal …
