The Limits Of Business Limited Liability: Entity Veil Piercing And Successor Liability Doctrines, John Matheson Jan 2004

The Limits Of Business Limited Liability: Entity Veil Piercing And Successor Liability Doctrines, John Matheson

Articles

The quest for limited liability in business enterprises and transactions has been a driving force in the development of business organization law for centuries. The historical development of corporations and limited partnerships evidences this primary goal. The recent development of the modern forms of limited liability partnerships and limited liability companies proves that this quest continues unabated. In addition, parties to significant business transfer transactions have long sought by construct and contract to apportion and limit their respective legal responsibilities and liabilities.Counterbalancing this inexorable trend toward limited liability has been the penchant of common law jurisprudence to define its limits. …

At The Cutting Edge Of Labor Law Preemption: A Critique Of Chamber Of Commerce V. Lockyer, Stephen F. Befort, Bryan N. Smith

Articles

This article analyzes the contours of federal labor law preemption through the lens of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals recent decision in Chamber of Commerce v. Lockyer, 364 F.3d 1154 (9th Cir. 2004).

Are Torture Warrants Warranted? Pragmatic Absolutism And Official Disobedience, Oren Gross Jan 2004

Are Torture Warrants Warranted? Pragmatic Absolutism And Official Disobedience, Oren Gross

Articles

May torture ever be morally or legally permissible? In Why Terrorism Works, Professor Alan Dershowitz makes two important claims. First, he rejects the notion that a prohibition on torture ought to be absolute. Second, in an attempt to limit the use of torture and maximize civil liberties Dershowitz suggests the mechanism of judicial torture warrants as a prerequisite to torturing suspected terrorists in interrogations. This article challenges both of Dershowitz's propositions by introducing two interlinked claims based on concepts of pragmatic absolutism and official disobedience. I argue that an absolute legal ban on torture ought to be maintained. However, in …


Employment Discrimination Remedies And Tax Gross Ups, Gregg Polsky, Stephen Befort Jan 2004

Employment Discrimination Remedies And Tax Gross Ups, Gregg Polsky, Stephen Befort

Articles

This article considers whether a successful employment discrimination plaintiff may be entitled, under current law, to receive an augmented award (a gross up) to neutralize certain adverse federal income tax consequences. The question of whether such a gross up is allowed, the resolution of which can have drastic effects on litigants, has received almost no attention from practitioners, judges, and academics. Because of the potentially enormous impact of the alternative minimum tax (AMT) on discrimination lawsuit recoveries, however, the gross up issue is now beginning to appear in reported cases. The three principal federal anti-discrimination statutes - Title VII, the …
