Unpublished Opinions Shall Not Be Cited As Authority: The Emerging Contours Of Texas Rule Of Appellate Procedure 90(I)., David M. Gunn
Unpublished Opinions Shall Not Be Cited As Authority: The Emerging Contours Of Texas Rule Of Appellate Procedure 90(I)., David M. Gunn
St. Mary's Law Journal
In Texas, worries of judicial overproduction have persisted throughout the twentieth century. Although the Texas Supreme Court began to use per curiam opinions more frequently around 1925, the flood continues. Texas now has more courts and judges than ever before, and history offers no reason to expect retrenchment. The present scheme in Texas creates two classes of judicial opinions, published and unpublished. Unpublished opinions are not supposed to count for purposes of stare decisis, while published opinions do. Texas Appellate Rule 90 regulates the issuance of opinions from the courts of appeals. Part (a) requires intermediate courts to issue written …
Analyzing Scientific Evidence: From Validity To Reliability With A Two-Step Approach., Renee A. Forinash
Analyzing Scientific Evidence: From Validity To Reliability With A Two-Step Approach., Renee A. Forinash
St. Mary's Law Journal
Throughout legal history, courts have wrestled with scientific evidence. Sometimes the courts admitted invalid evidence disguised as science. In the 1920’s, courts developed a very limited standard of admissibility for scientific evidence. Under the Frye test, a scientific expert’s conclusion was inadmissible unless the conclusion was generally accepted by the scientific community. Although this prevented “junk science” from invading courtrooms, it also protected invalid scientific evidence already present in the system and restricted using new, but valid, scientific techniques. In response, many jurisdictions developed more liberal evidentiary standards. The liberal standards averted the “cultural lag” for which Frye was criticized …

Indeterminacy, Justification And Truth In Constitutional Theory, Robert Justin Lipkin
Indeterminacy, Justification And Truth In Constitutional Theory, Robert Justin Lipkin
Fordham Law Review
In this Article, Professor Lipkin continues the debate over the nature of indeterminacy in constitutional theory, arguing that epistemic indeterminacy is most relevant to the law, because epistemic indeterminacy is more closely tied to practical reasoning than is metaphysical indeterminacy. Professor Lipkin further argues that the controversy over metaphysical or epistemic indeterminacy is really a controversy over truth or justification as the primary form of validating constitutional rules. In Professor Lipkin's view, the search for constitutional truth should be abandoned or, at best, should be treated as a trivial result of the best justification. Finally, Professor Lipkin proposes a new …

Toxic Reproductive And Genetic Hazards In The Workplace: Challenging The Myths Of The Tort And Workers' Compensation Systems, Jean Macchiaroli Eggen
Toxic Reproductive And Genetic Hazards In The Workplace: Challenging The Myths Of The Tort And Workers' Compensation Systems, Jean Macchiaroli Eggen
Fordham Law Review
In this Article, Professor Eggen discusses how various scientific studies suggest a causal connection between workers' reproductive and genetic injuries and their exposure to toxins in the workplace. Because of conflicts between scientific and legal causation standards, workers and affected family members often cannot prove a sufficient causal connection between toxic exposure and ensuing injury to recover under existing workers' compensation and tort laws. Thus, Professor Eggen proposes several specific reforms to both the workers' compensatoin and tort law systems to improve the availability of these relief mechanisms for toxic exposure victims.
Causal Comparisons, Robert N. Strassfeld
Causal Comparisons, Robert N. Strassfeld
Fordham Law Review
Focusing on the multiple meanings of the statement "A was a more important cause of C than was B," Professor Strassfeld considers the feasibility of comparative causation as a means of apportioning legal responsibility for harms. He concludse that by combining two different interpretations of "more important cause"--judgments of comparative counterfactual similarity and the Uniform Comparative Fault Act approach of comparative responsibility--we can effectively make causal comparisons and avoid the effort to compare such incommensurables as the defendant's fault under a strict liability standard and the plaintiff's failt for failure to exercise reasonable care.

Bumper Cars: Themes Of Convergence In International Regulation, Michael P. Malloy
Bumper Cars: Themes Of Convergence In International Regulation, Michael P. Malloy
Fordham Law Review
In this Article, Professor Malloy examines the convergence of regulatory standards among international regulators, suggesting that the dynamic of financial services regulation can be best understood as a conceptualized version of the bumper cars ride at an amusement park. While Professor Malloy suggests that a certain degree of convergence has already occurred in international regulation, thus decreasing the number of "bumps" in the ride, he also recognizes that much of this convergence remains propsective rather than actual, and currently is dominated by a pattern of regionalized regulation. Professor Malloy argues that, unless a converged pattern of regulation continues to develop, …

The Privacy Obstacle Course: Hurding Barriers To Transnational Financial Services, Joel R. Reidenberg
The Privacy Obstacle Course: Hurding Barriers To Transnational Financial Services, Joel R. Reidenberg
Fordham Law Review
Professor Reidenberg addresses the challenge to transnational financial services resulting from national regulation of information processing. National laws around the world seek to define fair information practices for the private sector and contain prohibitions on data transfers to foreign destinations that lack sufficient privacy protection. The effect of these laws for the financial services industry is significant because financial services depend on personal information. Professor Reidenberg argues that the international attempts to harmonize information processing encourage divergence of national standards for financial services. He argues that regulatory flexibility and customization is necessary to support financial sevices and accomodate, without circumventing, …

Symposium: Brown V. Board Of Education And Its Legacy: A Tribute To Justice Thurgood Marshall, Public Law Litigation And The Ambiguties Of Brown, Mark Tushnet
Fordham Law Review
Professor Tushnet posits that the Supreme Court's concern for gradually carrying out desegregation in the public schools ironically gave rise to "'public law litigation"---an aggressive form ofjudicial review. Specifically. Professor Tushnet argues that the "all deliberate speed" standard, which separated the right from the remedy, enabled the courts to become a more powerful institution in shaping social policy. Throughout his speech, Professor Tushnet provides insight into the thought processes of the Supreme Court justices at the time of the Brown decision.
Symposium: Brown V. Board Of Education And Its Legacy: A Tribute To Justice Thurgood Marshall, The Overthrow Of Monroe V. Pape: A Chapter In The Legacy Of Thurgood Marshall, Conrad K. Harper
Fordham Law Review
As the first Director-Counsel of the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund, otherwise known as the "Inc. Fund," Thurgood Marshall helped establish the Inc Fund's tradition of landmark civil rights litigation. Mr. Harper discusses in this article the role played by the Inc Fund and Justice Marshall in overthrowing Monroe v. Pape and its curtailment of civil rights suits against municipalities. The instrument for change was Harkdess v. Sweeny Independent School District, a suit filed on behalf of seventeen Black schoolteachers who were discriminatorily fired by a Texas school district.

Fordham Law Review
In this Article, Professor Marcus examines the influence of Justice Thurgood Marshall on the Supreme Court's current school desegregation agenda. Justice Marshall was part of the majority in desegregation cases during his earlier years on the high Court subsequently, however, his role became one of dissenter. Professor Marcus analyzes the divisive issues facing the Court in desegregation litigation, Marshall's positions on such issues, and his legacy to the Court in this area. Finally, the Article assesses the vitality of this legacy in light of two Supreme Court decisions issued after Justice Marshall's retirement.
