The Religious Right In Court: The Decision Making Of Christian Evangelicals In State Supreme Courts, Donald R. Songer, Susan J. Tabrizi May 1999

The Religious Right In Court: The Decision Making Of Christian Evangelicals In State Supreme Courts, Donald R. Songer, Susan J. Tabrizi

Faculty Publications

Much has been written recently about the emergence of evangelicals and others often labeled the "new Religious Right" in American politics. However, little attention has been paid to whether officials who have been socialized in the denominations characterized as being part of this Religious Right actually behave differently in office from those brought up in other religious traditions. The present study begins such an inquiry by examining differences in the voting behavior of state supreme court justices in three issue areas. Evangelical justices were found to be significantly more conservative than mainline Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish justices in death penalty, …

Nomos, Narrative, And Adjudication: Toward A Jurisgenetic Theory Of Law, Franklin G. Snyder May 1999

Nomos, Narrative, And Adjudication: Toward A Jurisgenetic Theory Of Law, Franklin G. Snyder

Faculty Scholarship

The world is bubbling over with law. As the late Robert Cover tells us in Nomos and Narrative, it springs up about us incessantly and inexorably in a spontaneous riot of luxuriant foliage. It bursts forth not from gods or kings or parliaments or courts but from the normative universe--what Cover calls the nomos --of each group within a society, a process he calls "the creation of legal meaning" or "jurisgenesis." As there are unnumbered groups in society, all with their unique nomoi, all jostling each other, the very air is alive with divergent legal meanings on every …


The Foundations Of Liberty, Lawrence B. Solum May 1999

The Foundations Of Liberty, Lawrence B. Solum

Faculty Scholarship

Randy Barnett's The Structure of Liberty is an ambitious book. The task that Barnett sets himself is to offer an original and persuasive argument for a libertarian political theory, a theory that challenges the legitimacy of the central institutions of the modern regulatory-welfare state. The Structure of Liberty is that rare creature, a book that delivers on most of the promises it makes. Already the book is on its way to becoming a contemporary classic, the successor in interest to Robert Nozick's Anarchy, State and Utopia as a source of ideas and arguments for the revitalization of an important intellectual …

Learning To Live With The New Foreign Nongrantor Trust Rules, Carlyn S. Mccaffrey, Elyse G. Kirschner May 1999

Learning To Live With The New Foreign Nongrantor Trust Rules, Carlyn S. Mccaffrey, Elyse G. Kirschner

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

The Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996 (the 1996 Act) was intended to deal a heavy blow to the appeal of foreign trusts to U.S. persons. The results were mixed. On the one hand, the 1996 Act imposes an array of reporting requirements, imposes harsh penalties on failures to comply with these requirements, increases the interest charge imposed on taxes paid on distributions of accumulated income from foreign trusts, treats loans of cash from foreign trusts as distributions, and expands the kinds of gifts that can be treated as indirect transfers from foreign trusts. On the other hand, curiously, …

Offshore And "Other" Shore Asset Protection Trusts, Eric Henzy May 1999

Offshore And "Other" Shore Asset Protection Trusts, Eric Henzy

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

The Portnoy, Brooks, and Lawrence cases demonstrate that under the right facts and circumstances, courts can and will enter orders finding spendthrift provisions of asset protection trusts invalid. These cases and this Article discuss a path that a bankruptcy court may follow to find that property transferred to an asset protection trust is property of a bankruptcy estate. Such a finding may lead to effective remedies for creditors, such as denial of a discharge to a debtor, orders compelling a debtor to direct a trust trustee to transfer assets, with contempt orders if the debtor fails to comply, and, possibly, …
