Procrastination, Deadlines, And Statutes Of Limitation, Andrew J. Wistrich
Procrastination, Deadlines, And Statutes Of Limitation, Andrew J. Wistrich
William & Mary Law Review
Statutes of limitation are deadlines. Although psychologists have discovered a great deal about how people respond to deadlines during the past thirty years, the basic structure of statutes of limitation has not changed since at least 1623. This Article explores the question of whether the received model of statutes of limitation remains optimal in light of what we now know about procrastination, the planning fallacy, loss aversion, intertemporal discounting, the student syndrome, and other features of human cognition. It concludes by suggesting a more modern approach to statutes of limitation that is based on a better understanding of how people …

Involuntary Endogenous Rfid Compliance Monitoring As A Condition Of Federal Supervised Release - Chips Ahoy?, Isaac B. Rosenberg
Involuntary Endogenous Rfid Compliance Monitoring As A Condition Of Federal Supervised Release - Chips Ahoy?, Isaac B. Rosenberg
W&M Law Student Publications
Among the many cutting edge technologies law enforcement agencies increasingly covet is radio frequency identification ("RFID"). Researchers predict RFID will become the most pervasive computer technology in history. Among the more extraordinary and controversial government uses of RFID-and the focus of this Paper-include implantation of subdermal RFID transmitters. Privacy concerns abound. Not surprisingly, critics and privacy advocates are wary of subdermal RFID implants, fearful that only afine line separates relatively innocuous, voluntary implantation from arbitrary government-mandated implantation. But for involuntary implantation of RFID chips to take root, government implantation programs would have to start on the small scale, targeting the …

Securities Fraud, Recidivism, And Deterrence, Jayne W. Barnard
Securities Fraud, Recidivism, And Deterrence, Jayne W. Barnard
Faculty Publications
Legal scholars have expended considerable energy on the study of high-level securities fraud violators-Ken Lay, Bernie Ebbers, Dennis Kozlowski, etc. There has been little attention, however, to the perpetrators of "retail" securities fraud-the con artists who sell bogus stock over the Internet, orchestrate elaborate pump-and-dump schemes, and create a never-ending array of purportedly "risk free" investment opportunities. Collectively, and in a cruel mockery of capitalism, these offenders extract hundreds of millions dollars from investors each year. In this article, Professor Barnard examines this group of offenders, focusing particularly on those who recidivate-often moving from state to state and scheme to …
Bringing Down The Bedroom Walls: Emphasizing Substance Over Form In Personalized Abuse, Orly Rachmilovitz
Bringing Down The Bedroom Walls: Emphasizing Substance Over Form In Personalized Abuse, Orly Rachmilovitz
William & Mary Journal of Race, Gender, and Social Justice
This article explores what makes domestic violence special and whether privileging certain abusive relationships, and thus certain victims, over others is justified. It argues that abuse in familial, romantic, or cohabitating relationships is not necessarily any more harmful than abuse in other personal relationships; that harm from abuse should be identified through substantive criteria, for which marriage or cohabitation should not be proxies; and that heightened protections should be extended accordingly. The article pinpoints the criteria that justify distinguishing domestic violence from other forms of violence and examines how federal and state domestic violence laws define protected victims and relationships. …
Speech: Latinas And Their Families In Detention: The Growing Intersection Of Immigration Law And Criminal Law, Sandra Guerra Thompson
Speech: Latinas And Their Families In Detention: The Growing Intersection Of Immigration Law And Criminal Law, Sandra Guerra Thompson
William & Mary Journal of Race, Gender, and Social Justice
In this article, Professor Sandra Guerra Thompson explores the growing enforcement of immigration law within the interior of the United States and the growing intersection of the criminal justice system and immigration law. Through the use of worksite enforcement sweeps and immigration screening by state and local law enforcement, growing numbers of undocumented persons are being taken into custody by federal immigration officials. She examines the plight of women and families held in detention centers under what are often deplorable conditions. Ironically, immigration detention centers offer fewer resources than those available in most state prisons. The immigration law judicial system …
