Legislative Oversight Of Administrative Agencies In Minnesota, J. David Prince
Legislative Oversight Of Administrative Agencies In Minnesota, J. David Prince
Faculty Scholarship
Due to the expanding role of agencies within the Executive branch at both the state and federal level, legislatures are struggling to fulfill their obligation to hold agencies accountable and to modify legislative mandates when necessary. In order for the legislature to fulfill this obligation, it must have the capability to exercise policy formation and oversight goals. This Article will first examine the need for legislative oversight and the legislative oversight mechanism in Minnesota. Next, the Article discusses the legislative controls currently being used at the federal and state level. Executive control mechanisms and their possible use by a legislature …
California's Foreclosure Statutes: Some Proposals For Reform, Cynthia Mertens
California's Foreclosure Statutes: Some Proposals For Reform, Cynthia Mertens
Faculty Publications
Spurred by the harsh economics of the Great Depression, California enacted several statutes designed to protect pledgors of real property from unfair and often ruinous deficiency judgments. This legislation includes Code of Civil Procedure sections 580a,the fair value section, 580b,the purchase-money anti-deficiency statute, 580d; the nonjudicial foreclosure anti-deficiency statute, and 726, the "one-action" rule. Three decades of judicial interpretation, however, have created a body of case law which fails to advance the legislative purposes upon which the courts purportedly base their decisions.
The time has come for California to substantially revise its Depression-era anti-deficiency legislation in order to express and …

Of Lollipops And Law -- A Proposal For A National Policy Concerning Tender Offer Defenses, Ted J. Fiflis
Of Lollipops And Law -- A Proposal For A National Policy Concerning Tender Offer Defenses, Ted J. Fiflis
Publications
Early last year, Mesa Petroleum Company made a tender offer for shares of Unocal Corporation in an effort to take over Unocal. Unocal responded by using the "lollipop" defense, which is a discriminatory issuer self-tender offer. Unocal's use of this defense resulted in huge economic losses to many of Unocal's small shareholders who were not knowledgeable about the ramifications of their participation or non-participation in the tender offer. The Delaware Supreme Court upheld Unocal's use of this defense as an appropriate exercise of business judgment. A federal district court in California refused to strike down the lollipop under federal law …
The Evisceration Of The Political Offense Exception To Extradition, Christopher L. Blakesley
The Evisceration Of The Political Offense Exception To Extradition, Christopher L. Blakesley
Scholarly Works
The Supplementary Convention to the Extradition Treaty between the Government of the United States of American and the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, was signed on June 25, 1985, and transmitted to the U.S. Senate on July 17, 1985. This article will focus on the portion of the supplementary treaty which effectively eliminates the political offense exception, and on the statement made by the Legal Adviser to the Department of State, the honorable Judge Abraham D. Sofaer, made in favor of the Supplementary Treaty, on August 1, 1985. This article suggests that approval of …

I have undertaken this article in hope that it may be of some help in promoting public understanding of the actual manner of review by the Cabinet Legislation Bureau-one step in the drafting process for legislation introduced by the Cabinet-and of the diligent efforts of the r��presentatives of the various ministries with whom we regularly come into contact. It goes without saying that the views and explanations contained herein, along with any inadequacies or inaccuracies in this account, are solely the responsibility of this author.
The “Program Or Activity” Rule In Anti-Discrimination Law: A Comment On S.272, H.R.700, And S.431, John H. Garvey
The “Program Or Activity” Rule In Anti-Discrimination Law: A Comment On S.272, H.R.700, And S.431, John H. Garvey
Scholarly Articles
In 1984 the Supreme Court determined in Grove City College v. Bell that the antidiscrimination provisions of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 were program-specific rather than institution-wide in application. In response, several legislative proposals designed to mitigate or reverse the Grove City decision have been introduced in Congress. These proposals include the Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1985 (H.R. 700 and S. 431) and the Civil Rights Amendments Act of 1985 (S. 272). In this Article, Professor Garvey argues that institution-wide application of Title IX and similar antidiscrimination statutes would in many instances lead to results inconsistent …

Styles Of Law And The Attainment Of Social Justice, Richard O. Lempert, Joseph Sanders
Styles Of Law And The Attainment Of Social Justice, Richard O. Lempert, Joseph Sanders
Book Chapters
In the last chapter we focused on the meaning of legal autonomy and on the constituent elements of the ideal type. We noted two requisites for the autonomous application of law: judicial formalism and equal competence. But we also argued that the autonomous application of law does not guarantee that the law as applied will not perpetuate or advance socioeconomic differences. For applied law to be autonomous in this further sense, legal norms, in addition, must be status neutral, and the distribution of welfare in society must be such that the neutral norms do not disproportionately benefit some people. These …
The Supreme Court And State Protectionism: Making Sense Of The Dormant Commerce Clause, Donald H. Regan
The Supreme Court And State Protectionism: Making Sense Of The Dormant Commerce Clause, Donald H. Regan
Articles
For almost fifty years, scholars have urged the Court to "balance" in dormant commerce clause cases; and the scholars have imagined that the Court was following their advice. The Court has indeed claimed to balance, winning scholarly approval. But the Court knows better than the scholars. Despite what the Court has said, it has not been balancing. It has been following a simpler and better-justified course. In the central area of dormant commerce clause jurisprudence, comprising what I shall call "movement-of-goods" cases), the Court has been concerned exclusively with preventing states from engaging in purposeful economic protectionism. Not only is …

The Uniform Statutory Rule Against Perpetuities, Lawrence W. Waggoner
The Uniform Statutory Rule Against Perpetuities, Lawrence W. Waggoner
Articles
When the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws recently approved the Uniform Statutory Rule Against Perpetuities, it may at long last have made perpetuity reform achievable in this country. Coming, as it does, on the heels of the 1981 promulgation of the Restatement (Second) of Property (Donative Transfers), which adopts the same general type of perpetuity reform, and having been unanimously endorsed by the House of Delegates of the American Bar Association, the Board of Regents of the American College of Probate Counsel, and the Board of Governors of the American College of Real Estate Lawyers, the Uniform …
