The Supreme Court's Use Of Per Curiam Dispositions: The Connection To Oral Argument, Stephen L. Wasby, Steven Peterson, James Shubert, Glendon Shubert
The Supreme Court's Use Of Per Curiam Dispositions: The Connection To Oral Argument, Stephen L. Wasby, Steven Peterson, James Shubert, Glendon Shubert
Northern Illinois University Law Review
This study is an empirical examination of a set of the Supreme Court's per curiam rulings issued after oral argument between 1969 and 1981. The authors use transcripts of Supreme Court oral argument and the Court's opinions to untangle relationships between oral argument and dispositions, particularly when the Court does not reach the merits. The authors note that oral argument clarifies issues and helps the justices narrow them. The Court's comments in its per curiam dispositions indicate that oral argument is relevant for the Court's dispositions and at times it has been more determinative of outcomes, for example, when counsel's …
"The Right Of Privacy", Fernando Bustos
"The Right Of Privacy", Fernando Bustos
Brigham Young University Prelaw Review
The concept of a right of privacy is one that is currently the focal point of the argument for legalized abortion, and for women's rights in general. By examining the history of this issue, along with its influence upon the U.S. Constitution, and the decisions of the U.S. Supreme Court, we will be better enabled to understand the legal debate at hand.

The Paradox Of United State Democracy, C. A. Gearty
The Paradox Of United State Democracy, C. A. Gearty
University of Richmond Law Review
This program is about a paradox at the heart of American democracy. We take it for granted that elected officials, like President Bush and members of Congress, run America. In fact, many of the country's most important decisions are taken by nine unelected lawyers accountable to no one. It is a paradox which is increasingly under scrutiny as more and more Americans are coming to question the power of their Supreme Court.
When “Special Needs” Meet Probable Cause: Denying The Devil Benefit Of Law, Gerald S. Reamey
When “Special Needs” Meet Probable Cause: Denying The Devil Benefit Of Law, Gerald S. Reamey
Faculty Articles
Removing laws to pursue the lawbreaker may be well intentioned, but the result is that society is susceptible to the evils those laws protect against. The traditional Fourth Amendment safeguards--probable cause and warrants--have been abandoned due to the development of a reasonableness standard because of the presence of “special needs” that were used to justify searches. The adoption of this alternative approach to Fourth Amendment interpretation was signalled by the truly landmark case of Terry v. Ohio.
By adopting the “reasonableness” analysis, the Supreme Court altered the impact of the exclusionary rule without directly modifying the rule. After Griffin v. …

Evidence Of Religion And The Religion Of Evidence, Michael S. Ariens
Evidence Of Religion And The Religion Of Evidence, Michael S. Ariens
Faculty Articles
When testimony about the religiosity of a victim is elicited, a jury will likely become aware of the religious affiliation of the victim. Any revelation to a jury of the religiosity of a victim can be an aid to the jury in assessing the punishment to be given to the defendant, since being religious and talking with people about religion is deemed a communal good. However, prescribing a harsher punishment to a defendant because of the religious affiliation of a victim is a form of religious discrimination which is unconstitutional. In light of this inherent difficulty of evidence of religion, …
