The War On Terrorism In The Courts, Gerald E. Rosen Oct 2006

The War On Terrorism In The Courts, Gerald E. Rosen

Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal

The article addresses the challenges posed by the war on terrorism to judicial independence and the protection of civil liberties. It argues that while the Executive and Legislative branches must act to safeguard national security, the Judiciary has a critical role in ensuring that constitutional rights and procedural safeguards are not eroded. The author emphasizes that courts must balance the need to defer to national security concerns with the obligation to protect fundamental rights, such as access to courts, right to counsel, and confrontation rights, even in terrorism cases.


Sword Or Shield? The Government's Selective Use Of Its Declassification Authority For Tactical Advantage In Criminal Prosecutions, Joshua L. Dratel Oct 2006

Sword Or Shield? The Government's Selective Use Of Its Declassification Authority For Tactical Advantage In Criminal Prosecutions, Joshua L. Dratel

Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal

The article argues that the government's selective use of declassification authority under the Classified Information Procedures Act (CIPA) undermines the statute's intent to ensure fair trials. By declassifying inculpatory evidence while withholding exculpatory information, the government gains an unfair tactical advantage, particularly in terrorism cases where defendants often lack access to classified materials. The article advocates for reforms to CIPA, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), and Rule 16 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure to restore balance and safeguard defendants' Fifth and Sixth Amendment rights.


U.S. Sentencing Guidelines And Export Control Laws: How To Equate A Credit Card Transaction With A Violation Of National Security Controls Or Selling 400 Grams Of Heroin, J. Triplett Mackintosh, Danielle R. Voorhees Oct 2006

U.S. Sentencing Guidelines And Export Control Laws: How To Equate A Credit Card Transaction With A Violation Of National Security Controls Or Selling 400 Grams Of Heroin, J. Triplett Mackintosh, Danielle R. Voorhees

Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal

The article critiques the application of section 2M5.1 of the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines (USSG) to criminal violations of the Office of Foreign Asset Control (OFAC) regulations, arguing that such application is overly broad and misaligned with the severity of offenses. It contends that treating minor transactions with embargoed countries as equivalent to national security threats or terrorism support is inappropriate, as these regulations often involve malum prohibitum offenses that are not inherently malicious.


Whose Life Is It Anyway?, Kam C. Wong Oct 2006

Whose Life Is It Anyway?, Kam C. Wong

Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal

The article explores the complex ethical, legal, and societal dimensions of the right-to-die debate, emphasizing the need for a nuanced approach that moves beyond simplistic moral framing. It argues that the debate is inherently exploratory and tentative, shaped by cultural and personal values, and calls for a reassessment of existing perspectives to foster creative solutions. The central thesis underscores the inevitability of euthanasia as a societal issue and advocates for balanced policies that respect individual autonomy while addressing broader societal concerns.

An Instrumental Theory Of Market Power And Antitrust Policy, Jeffrey L. Harrison Oct 2006

An Instrumental Theory Of Market Power And Antitrust Policy, Jeffrey L. Harrison

UF Law Faculty Publications

Since Judge Hand's pivotal opinion in United States v. Aluminum Company of America (Alcoa), the possession of monopoly power has been treated as presumptively legal. The focus of the antitrust laws since then has been on defining when that power is abused. This approach to market power cannot be squared with the prevailing view that antitrust law is grounded in economic theory. To understand why, one must see market power for what it is: the ability of a firm to raise prices above competitive levels and to profitably keep them there. Seen in this light, market power is indistinguishable from …


School Discipline 101: Students' Due Process Rights In Expulsion Hearings, Melissa Frydman, Shani M. King Oct 2006

School Discipline 101: Students' Due Process Rights In Expulsion Hearings, Melissa Frydman, Shani M. King

UF Law Faculty Publications

Upholding the principle that school districts, as state actors, shall not deprive a student of liberty or property without due process of law, courts have expanded for more than four decades the Fourteenth Amendment's due process protection of public school students. Understanding this principle is essential to representing children in school discipline proceedings. Before presenting a practical guide to representing students in these proceedings, we offer a brief history of due process protection for children.
