Do User Fees Violate Nonmember Rights?, Jerry Hartman

UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones

User fees are moneys charged non-union members by their representative union for the purpose of processing grievances. The non-member has to request the union to represent them in order for the union to do so. They may also hirer private representation at their own cost. User fees violate the intent of right-to-work laws in Nevada. The Nevada Local Government Employee-Management Board was wrong when they allowed Union/Local 1107 to charge such fees. The "Executive Board Policy" posted by Local 1107 on union bulletin boards announcing the fees for representation was coercive and discriminatory. According to survey, 40% of the respondents …

"I Cannot Eat Air!": An Economic Analysis Of International Immigration Law For The 21st Century, Harry Valetk

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 (IIRIRA) introduced sweeping changes to U.S. immigration policy, significantly restricting benefits for immigrants and increasing enforcement measures. These changes have raised critical policy and constitutional concerns, particularly regarding their disproportionate impact on vulnerable populations such as the elderly and disabled. The article argues that the IIRIRA reflects broader structural issues, including the exploitation of cheap labor and the reinforcement of an ethnically divided class system. It also highlights the interplay between economic policies, such as the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), and the facilitation of illegal immigration.

The New Chinese Criminal Justice System, Daniel C. Turack

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article examines the significant legal reforms in China's criminal justice system enacted in 1996 and 1997, aiming to transition from "rule by man" to "rule of law." It evaluates whether these reforms have enhanced personal freedoms and aligned the system with international standards, comparing the pre-1996 legal framework with the revised Criminal Law and Law of Criminal Procedure.

The Dynamics And Determinants Of The Decision To Grant En Banc Review, Tracey E. George

Washington Law Review

The ability of U.S. Courts of Appeals to control the development of law within their respective circuits has been strained by the practice of divisional sittings, the growing caseload at the circuit court level, the increasing number of judges sitting within each circuit, and the decreasing probability of Supreme Court intervention. The primary method of maintaining coherence and consistency in doctrinal development within a federal circuit is en banc review. Yet, many critics contend that en banc rehearing is a time-consuming, inefficient procedure that fails to serve its intended purpose and too often is abused for political ends. This Article …

The End Of An Era: Suburban Village Aversion In Citizens For Mount Vernon V. City Of Mount Vernon, Ronda Larson

Washington Law Review

In 1990, the Washington Legislature enacted the Growth Management Act (GMA) to counteract problems related to unmanaged population growth. The GMA fundamentally altered two traditional aspects of land use law: the disregard for planning documents and the aversion to mixing uses within zones. Counties and cities planning under the Act now must have comprehensive plans and zoning ordinances that are consistent with those plans. They are also encouraged to use innovative zoning tools such as mixed-use housing developments. In the 1997 case Citizens for Mount Vernon v. City of Mount Vernon, the Supreme Court of Washington applied pre-GMA common …

Washington's "Spam-Killing" Statute: Does It Slaughter Privacy In The Process?, Steven Miller

Washington Law Review

In 1998, the Washington Legislature passed an historic law prohibiting the sending of commercial e-mail messages containing false or misleading information in the subject line or header. The law also permits companies that provide Internet services, known as Internet Service Providers (ISPs), to block the transmission or receipt of messages reasonably believed to violate the statute. However, the law fails to specify the permissible activities that an ISP may pursue to form such a reasonable belief. It thereby encourages a variety of intrusive ISP activities, such as message screening. Existing statutory and constitutional privacy law provides the only shield for …

Personal Liability For Sexual Harassment Under The Washington Law Against Discrimination, Darya V. Swingle

Washington Law Review

Personal liability for sexual harassment stands at the forefront of employment law and the American political conscience. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act and the Washington Law Against Discrimination both enjoin employers from engaging in sexual harassment. The federal circuit courts have uniformly held that individual employees are exempt from personal liability for sexual harassment under Title VII because they do not fit the statutory definition of "employer." Washington courts have yet to address the issue under state law. This Comment argues that the correct interpretation of the Washington Law Against Discrimination bars individuals from personal liability for sexual …
