The 2006 Analysis Of Information Remaining On Disks Offered For Sale On The Second Hand Market, Andy Jones, Craig Valli, Iain Sutherland, Paula Thomas

Journal of Digital Forensics, Security and Law

All organisations, whether in the public or private sector, use computers for the storage and processing of information relating to their business or services, their employees and their customers. A large proportion of families and individuals in their homes now also use personal computers and, both intentionally and inadvertently, often store on those computers personal information. It is clear that most organisations and individuals continue to be unaware of the information that may be stored on the hard disks that the computers contain, and have not considered what may happen to the information after the disposal of the equipment.

Computer Forensics Field Triage Process Model, Marcus K. Rogers, James Goldman, Rick Mislan, Timothy Wedge, Steve Debrota

Journal of Digital Forensics, Security and Law

With the proliferation of digital based evidence, the need for the timely identification, analysis and interpretation of digital evidence is becoming more crucial. In many investigations critical information is required while at the scene or within a short period of time - measured in hours as opposed to days. The traditional cyber forensics approach of seizing a system(s)/media, transporting it to the lab, making a forensic image(s), and then searching the entire system for potential evidence, is no longer appropriate in some circumstances. In cases such as child abductions, pedophiles, missing or exploited persons, time is of the essence. In …

Getting The Sand Out Of The Eyes Of The Law: The Need For A Clear Rule For Sand Suppliers In Texas After Humble Sand & (And) Gravel, Inc. V. Gomez., Victor E. Schwartz, Mark A. Behrens, Andrew W. Crouse

St. Mary's Law Journal

Health risks associated with the inhalation of silica dust have been known for a very long time. In the United States, the American Foundrymen’s Society has distributed literature addressing silica exposure hazards to its members for over 100 years. For years, litigation against industrial sand manufacturers concerning silica exposure was stable, though recently there has been a marked increase in the number lawsuits. While the number of suits continues to climb, the government reports silica-related deaths have declined dramatically. It appears plaintiffs’ attorneys are manufacturing silica claims using the same lawsuit-generating devices developed during the asbestos context. Tort law recognizes …

Till Death Do Us Part: Marriage, Hiv/Aids And The Law In Zimbabwe, Slyvia Chirawu

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The article argues that marriage, cultural practices, and legal frameworks in Zimbabwe disproportionately expose women to HIV/AIDS, with marriage paradoxically increasing their vulnerability despite societal expectations of protection. It contends that legal reforms alone are insufficient to address this issue, emphasizing the need for transformative gender equity to challenge the deeply rooted power imbalances and cultural norms that perpetuate women's susceptibility to HIV infection.

A New I Do: Towards A Marriage-Neutral Income Tax, Shari Motro

Law Faculty Publications

The federal income tax system treats married couples as if each spouse earned approximately one-half of the couple's combined income through a mechanism called "income splitting. " For many one-earner and unequal-earner couples, income splitting produces a significant advantage, a "marriage bonus," by shifting income from higher to lower rate brackets. Marriage-based income splitting relies on a presumption that marriage is a good indicator of economic unity between two taxpayers. It is not. Marriage does not require spousal sharing, and many unmarried couples share everything they earn. As a result, the current system extends the benefit of income splitting to …

Speech Of Government Employees, Ann C. Hodges

Law Faculty Publications

For many years, government employment was considered a privilege rather than a right, and, as a result, the government could place restrictions on employee speech that would be unconstitutional if applied to citizens.

Jurisdiction And Discretion In Hybrid Law Cases, John F. Preis

Law Faculty Publications

An everlasting debate in the federal courts field is which branch of the federal government has the power to control federal jurisdiction. While some commentators and judges assert that the judiciary has the implicit authority to refine the boundaries of its jurisdiction, others argue that Article III vests that authority with Congress only and judicial modification of jurisdiction is illegitimate. In focusing almost entirely on the constitutional legitimacy of the question, this debate has overlooked an important consideration: Even if the judiciary may legitimately wield discretion in setting its jurisdiction, is such discretion functionally appropriate?

This Article argues that such …

Constitutional Lessons For The Next Generation Of Public Single-Sex Elementary And Secondary Schools, Kimberly J. Robinson

Law Faculty Publications

Single-sex public elementary and secondary schools are making a comeback. School districts are structuring these schools in a variety of ways, including by providing a single-sex public school for only one sex or by offering single-sex schools for both sexes. These disparate structures of single-sex schools create distinct potential harms, risks, and benefits for students. This Article contends that the constitutional framework applied to single-sex schools should be systematically modified to recognize the different potential harms, risks, and benefits of these single-sex schools in a manner that will create optimal conditions for creating single-sex public schools. The proposed modifications address …

The False Dichotomy Of Rape Trauma Syndrome, Holly Hogan

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The article critiques the legal system's distinction between offensive and defensive uses of Rape Trauma Syndrome (RTS) testimony, arguing that this dichotomy is flawed. It contends that even testimony categorized as defensive often functions offensively by influencing the jury's perception of the victim's credibility. The article proposes a functional approach to evaluating RTS testimony, focusing on whether it vouches for the victim's credibility or explains counterintuitive behaviors, rather than adhering to the formal offensive/defensive framework.

Trials & Errors: The Rights Of The Korean Comfort Women And The Wrongful Dismissal Of The Joo Case By The District Of Columbia Federal Courts, L. David Nefouse

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The article argues that the U.S. courts erred in dismissing the Joo case, which sought justice for Korean Comfort Women against Japan. It contends that the dismissals were based on flawed legal analyses, particularly regarding sovereign immunity under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act (FSIA) and the political question doctrine. The author advocates for the women's right to a judicial hearing under U.S. and international law, emphasizing the need for accountability for war crimes and crimes against humanity.

The Tale Of Two Systems: How Integrated Divorce Laws Can Remedy The Unintended Effects Of Pure No-Fault Divorce, Karen Turnage Boyd

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The article critiques the unintended consequences of pure no-fault divorce laws, arguing that they fail to protect the economic and emotional well-being of innocent spouses, particularly women and homemakers. It advocates for an integrated divorce system that combines fault and no-fault grounds, using Georgia's approach as a model. This hybrid system would allow courts to consider fault in property distribution and spousal support, providing greater protections for vulnerable parties while maintaining the flexibility of no-fault divorce.
