The Rise And (Coming) Fall Of Efficiency As The Ruler Of Antitrust, Robert H. Lande Oct 1988

The Rise And (Coming) Fall Of Efficiency As The Ruler Of Antitrust, Robert H. Lande

All Faculty Scholarship

The debate over the legitimate goals of antitrust is ceaseless and its practical resolution influenced by politics. The answer often given in the past, and particularly during the Warren Court era when a heavy emphasis was placed on social and political factors, contrasts sharply with the consensus view during the Reagan Administration that only economic efficiency counts. Since antitrust moves in cycles, a natural question arises—will antitrust continue to stand upon a foundation of efficiency, return to the old social and political perspective, or embrace some third view of its proper direction?

The Doctrine Of Inevitable Discovery: A Plea For Reasonable Limitations, Steven P. Grossman Jan 1988

The Doctrine Of Inevitable Discovery: A Plea For Reasonable Limitations, Steven P. Grossman

All Faculty Scholarship

In reinstating the Iowa murder conviction of Robert Williams, the Supreme Court accepted explicitly for the first time the doctrine of inevitable discovery. Applied for some time by state and federal courts, the doctrine of inevitable discovery is a means by which evidence obtained illegally can still be admitted against defendants in criminal cases. Unfortunately, the Court chose to adopt the doctrine without any of the safeguards necessary to insure that the deterrent impact of the exclusionary rule would be preserved, and in a form that is subject to and almost invites abuse.

This article warns of the danger to …

The Classical Corporation In American Legal Thought, Herbert J. Hovenkamp Jan 1988

The Classical Corporation In American Legal Thought, Herbert J. Hovenkamp

All Faculty Scholarship

Classical political economy was dedicated to the principle that the state could best encourage economic development by leaving entrepreneurs alone, free of regulation and subsidy. The development of classical economic policy in the United States dramatically changed the concept of the business corporation. Within the preclassical, mercantilist model, the corporation was a unique entity created by the state for a special purpose and enjoyed a privileged relationship with the sovereign. The very act of incorporation presumed state involvement. State subsidy and the incorporators' public obligation were natural corollaries. Business firms that relied on the market alone to determine their prospects …


Four Predictions For The Criminal Law Of 2043, Paul H. Robinson Jan 1988

Four Predictions For The Criminal Law Of 2043, Paul H. Robinson

All Faculty Scholarship

The Model Penal Code has all the markings of an historic document. It is a sophisticated and enlightened model for penal reform that has put the United States in the front row of reformers. And many believe that the likes of such an historic reform will not come again for more than another century. In my view, it can hardly be disputed that the Code is an historic document. It is less clear, however, that we should not expect a dramatically different code before another century.

Decertification Of Police: An Alternative To Traditional Remedies For Police Misconduct, Roger L. Goldman, Steven Purro Jan 1988

Decertification Of Police: An Alternative To Traditional Remedies For Police Misconduct, Roger L. Goldman, Steven Purro

All Faculty Scholarship

This article is the first in-depth examination of revocation of peace officer licenses for citizen abuse. Unlike the more familiar remedy of terminating the officer’s employment, license revocation, more commonly called decertification, has the advantage of disabling the officer from continuing to work in other departments within the state, just as occurs for myriad other professions and occupations. To determine what type of misconduct led to revocation, a file search was made of all revocations by the Florida Criminal Justices Standards and Training Commission during the time period October 1976 – October 1983. Florida was selected because it has been …
