Price Discrimination, Personal Use And Piracy: Copyright Protection Of Digital Works, Michael J. Meurer
Price Discrimination, Personal Use And Piracy: Copyright Protection Of Digital Works, Michael J. Meurer
Faculty Scholarship
The growth of digital information transmission worries copyright holders who fear the new technology threatens their profits because of greater piracy and widespread sharing of digital works. They have responded with proposals for expanded protection of digital works. Specifically, they seek restrictions on personal use rights regarding digital works provided by the fair use and first sale doctrines. The proposed changes in the allocation of property rights to digital information significantly affect the ability of copyright holders to practice price discrimination. Broader user rights make discrimination more difficult; broader producer rights make discrimination easier. I argue that more price discrimination …

In Search Of A Substantive Republic, James E. Fleming, Linda C. Mcclain
Faculty Scholarship
The publication of Michael J. Sandel's Democracy's Discontent: America in Search of a Public Philosophy is a long-awaited and important event in political and constitutional theory. In 1982, through his first book, Liberalism and the Limits of Justice,1 Sandel emerged as a leading communitarian or civic republican critic of liberalism. That book became prominent, not because its criticisms of liberalism were dispositive, but because it eloquently and elegantly captured discontent with liberalism and evoked yearnings for an alternative. Since then, Sandel has occupied a position on the American intellectual landscape as a placeholder for a *510 communitarian or civic …

Does Adr Really Have A Place On The Lawyer's Philosophical Map?, Barbara Mcadoo, Nancy A. Welsh
Does Adr Really Have A Place On The Lawyer's Philosophical Map?, Barbara Mcadoo, Nancy A. Welsh
Faculty Scholarship
For nearly two decades, proponents of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) have touted the advantages of institutionalizing ADR within the courts. The anticipated benefits have included: quicker settlements, better settlements, resolution which is less expensive for the courts and litigants, and greater litigant satisfaction with both the procedure and the outcome. Many state and federal courts have listened. Indeed, in nearly every state, at least one local state and/or federal court has incorporated ADR in some manner. In Minnesota, with the promulgation of Rule 114 of the Minnesota General Rules of Practice, the Minnesota Supreme Court has chosen to institutionalize ADR …

Labor And The Supreme Court: Review Of The 1996-1997 Term, Keith N. Hylton
Labor And The Supreme Court: Review Of The 1996-1997 Term, Keith N. Hylton
Faculty Scholarship
The U.S. Supreme Court's 1996-1997 Term will surely not be remembered among lawyers for its decisions in the employment area. Most of these decisions involved narrow questions of statutory interpretation, and for the most part the Court has handed down opinions consistent with existing case law. There was not one National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) decision this Term and the two employment discrimination cases involved fairly technical issues of statutory interpretation. The feeling of a quiet year is put across by simply reading the statutes at issue other than Title VII: the Federal Employers' Liability Act (FELA) (one case), the …
Grappling The Monster Case: The Next Frontier In Adr, Nancy A. Welsh, Ann Montgomery
Grappling The Monster Case: The Next Frontier In Adr, Nancy A. Welsh, Ann Montgomery
Faculty Scholarship
Not so long ago, "ADR" was just one more term in a legal jargon already filled with too many acronyms. While we concede that "ADR" might not rival "CPR" as a vital necessity, its use is extremely important to the practice of law today. Since the promulgation of Rule 114 of the Minnesota General Rules of Practice, nearly 80 percent of Minnesota attorneys report that they are using ADR to help resolve their civil cases filed in state trial courts.' Their reasons? ADR processes can cut litigation costs, reduce clients' expenses, save attorneys' and clients' time, and generate earlier settlements. …
Bioethics Policy: Looking Beyond The Power Of Sovereign Governments (Foreword), Robert L. Schwartz
Bioethics Policy: Looking Beyond The Power Of Sovereign Governments (Foreword), Robert L. Schwartz
Faculty Scholarship
Lawyers are trained to think in terms of power exercised by a sovereign-an institution authorized to enforce a procedurally appropriate decision with coercive force.' Generally, lawyers have a broad notion of what constitutes a sovereign. In the United States, for example, this notion includes the federal government, state governments, most tribal units, traditional territorial governments and their agencies-e.g., school boards, local public park districts, water run-off management districts, and flea abatement boards-and a host of other institutions. As a result, it is difficult for lawyers to recognize that policy also may emanate from other institutions that possess only persuasive authority, …
A Brief History Of New Mexico Water Rights Administration Since 1907, G. Emlen Hall
A Brief History Of New Mexico Water Rights Administration Since 1907, G. Emlen Hall
Faculty Scholarship
Let's get right down to it: If the Big Bang Theory of the beginning of our universe applied to New Mexico water law as we know it today, there would be no trouble setting the date on which the Creation occurred: March 19, 1907.1.0n that date the Water Code under which we now live became effective and the water world we now live in began. So important is this date in the cosmology of New Mexico water rights that every water lawyer and every water engineer---in short, every "eginawyer" in the words of United States District Judge Edwin Mechem---can recite …

This Article presents a chronological, narrative account of Jackson's participation in the court fight over Roosevelt's so-called "court packing plan." The larger history of that campaign and its players also are presented in order to illuminate Jackson's role. Although a number of secondary works-both old and new-review the history of the fight, the main purpose here is to relate Jackson's part in this larger history, drawing on. those secondary works only to the extent that they are helpful. This Article first recounts the historical background of the tension between the New Deal and the Supreme Court as well as the …

Honesty, Privacy And Shame: When Gay People Talk About Other Gay People To Nongay People, Steven K. Homer, David L. Chambers
Faculty Scholarship
There is a longstanding convention among lesbians and gay men in the United States: Do not reveal the sexuality of a gay person to a heterosexual person; unless you are certain that the gay person does not regard his sexuality as a secret. This article looks that this convention as it applies in the context of conversations between individuals about acquaintances, friends, and the person next door. We focus on the outing of ordinary people by other ordinary people because the day-to-day lies openly gay people tell to protect friends and acquaintances often place the tellers in a personal ethical …
Multiemployer Bargaining, Antitrust Law, And Team Sports: The Contingent Choice Of A Broad Exemption, Michael C. Harper
Multiemployer Bargaining, Antitrust Law, And Team Sports: The Contingent Choice Of A Broad Exemption, Michael C. Harper
Faculty Scholarship
Twenty-four years after pronouncing that "Congress[ ,]... not... this Court[, must remedy] any inconsistency or illogic" in the long standing exemption of baseball, but not other sports from the reach of the antitrust laws,' the Supreme Court last term reduced substantially the uniqueness of Major League Baseball's control over its labor market. The Court did so not by exposing baseball to antitrust attack, but rather by clarifying that restrictions on player labor mobility and freedom of contract imposed by all North American leagues of professional sports teams2 also enjoy an exemption from antitrust scrutiny as long as their labor …

On Reading Recipes -- And Constitutions, Gary S. Lawson
Faculty Scholarship
Modem theories of constitutional interpretation typically make the truth of propositions about constitutional meaning depend, at least to some degree, on the extent to which those propositions (1) lead to politically legitimate results' and/or (2) cohere with modem constitutional practice.2 That is, such theories generally maintain that correct interpretations of the Constitution must provide normative grounds to apply those interpretations in real cases, must be consistent with at least a substantial amount of real-world constitutional decisionmaking, or both.
Original Meaning Without Originalism, James E. Fleming
Original Meaning Without Originalism, James E. Fleming
Faculty Scholarship
Is it possible for a constitutional theorist to give due regard to original meaning in constitutional interpretation without being an originalist? Narrow originalists, such as Robert H. Bork and Justice Antonin Scalia, have asserted that it is not.' On their view, it is hypocritical for anyone who is not a narrow originalist to make recourse to original meaning-a clear case of the devil quoting scripture. Their view is bogus. Nevertheless, constitutional theorists who are not narrow originalists have not paid sufficient attention to how arguments based on original meaning function in constitutional law. One of the many virtues of Michael …
