Form Over Substance?: Officer Certification And The Promise Of Enhanced Personal Accountability Under The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Lisa M. Fairfax
Form Over Substance?: Officer Certification And The Promise Of Enhanced Personal Accountability Under The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Lisa M. Fairfax
Faculty Scholarship
This article argues that the requirement under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (the “Act”) that particular officers certify the accuracy of the financial information contained in their company’s periodic reports fails to alter significantly existing standards of liability for officers who signed or approved such reports prior to the Act’s passage. This failure creates cause for concern about the Act’s potential to meet its objectives. Indeed, the certification requirement represents one of the Act’s principal symbols of officer personal accountability. By demonstrating that the requirement may only be symbolic, my article questions whether the Act can impact the behavior of corporate officers, …
Whose Duty Is It Anyway?: The Kennedy Krieger Opinion And Its Implications For Public Health Research, Diane E. Hoffmann, Karen H. Rothenberg
Whose Duty Is It Anyway?: The Kennedy Krieger Opinion And Its Implications For Public Health Research, Diane E. Hoffmann, Karen H. Rothenberg
Faculty Scholarship
In this article, the authors discuss the Maryland Court of Appeals decision in the case of Grimes v. Kennedy Krieger Institute, Inc. and its implications for the tort duty owed by researchers, in particular public health researchers, to their subjects. The Opinion resulted from two lawsuits alleging lead poisoning of children enrolled in a study conducted by the Kennedy Krieger Institute, a world renown pediatric research and treatment facility. The opinion shocked the research establishment with its scathing characterization of researchers and its apparent holding that in Maryland a parent cannot consent to the participation of a child in "nontherapeutic …

Form And Function In Business Organizations, Richard A. Booth Marbury Research Professor Of Law
Form And Function In Business Organizations, Richard A. Booth Marbury Research Professor Of Law
Faculty Scholarship
In this piece, I argue that the recent proliferation of forms of business organizations in addition to the traditional partnership and corporation may have arisen from the implicit recognition that various organizations may serve needs of business people in different types of businesses, and that traditional theory of the firm explanations are too narrowly focused on market failure explanations for firm formation. I identify at least five different factors that may motivate people to form a business organization and discuss how these different factors may militate in favor of one business form rather than another. I conclude that the collections …
U.S. Unilateralism And The International Protection Of Religious Freedom: The Multilateral Alternative, Peter G. Danchin
U.S. Unilateralism And The International Protection Of Religious Freedom: The Multilateral Alternative, Peter G. Danchin
Faculty Scholarship
This article considers the tension in U.S. foreign policy between unilateral and multilateral approaches to the promotion and protection of religious freedom. In particular, it analyzes the recently enacted International Religious Freedom Act of 1998 that seeks to enforce international human rights norms through the imposition of unilateral sanctions on foreign countries that deny religious freedom and persecute religious groups. The Article suggests that this approach stands in an uneasy relationship with existing international and regional human rights regimes and institutions. It argues that as an instrument of foreign policy, the Act is vulnerable to politicization and abuse of the …

The Condorcet Jury Theorem And Judicial Decisionmaking: A Reply To Saul Levmore, Maxwell L. Stearns
The Condorcet Jury Theorem And Judicial Decisionmaking: A Reply To Saul Levmore, Maxwell L. Stearns
Faculty Scholarship
In Ruling Majorities and Reasoning Pluralities, Professor Saul Levmore explores the "division of labor" between the various thresholds of agreement required for collective action - supermajority, simple majority, or plurality rule. His particular emphasis is on the choice between the last two options. To improve our understanding of this choice in various settings, Professor Levmore considers the relationship between two well-known contributions to the study of group decisionmaking, namely, the Condorcet Jury Theorem and the Condorcet Criterion, which have not generally been treated together. This essay explores the relationship between these two insights in the context of judicial decisionmaking. Counterintuitively, …
