No Cracks In The Wall: The Standing Barrier And The Need For Restructuring Animal Protection Laws, Kristen Stuber Snyder
No Cracks In The Wall: The Standing Barrier And The Need For Restructuring Animal Protection Laws, Kristen Stuber Snyder
Cleveland State Law Review
American society's perception of animals has come a long way since the country was founded over 200 years ago. However, the court system has been slow to evolve along with these views, and the standing requirement maintains a barrier for those wishing to enforce protection through litigation. While protective legislation currently exists, it does not provide the necessary means of enforcement to accomplish its objectives. Thus, the enactment of new legislation is necessary to ensure animals in this country exist under decent and humane conditions.

Jones V. Mayer Revisited, Symposium: New Strategies In Fair Housing, Mira Tanna
Jones V. Mayer Revisited, Symposium: New Strategies In Fair Housing, Mira Tanna
Cleveland State Law Review
This article revisits Jones v. Mayer. Jones v. Mayer, decided by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1968, was the first Supreme Court case to rule that the Civil Rights Act of 1866--which guarantees the same right of all citizens to inherit, purchase, lease, sell, hold, and convey real and personal property as is enjoyed by white citizens--applies not only to actions of the state but also to private parties.
Equality And The Free Exercise Of Religion , Bret Boyce
Equality And The Free Exercise Of Religion , Bret Boyce
Cleveland State Law Review
Part I of this Article begins with a brief overview of Supreme Court case law on free exercise exemptions, which provides a background for modern historical and normative debates. Part II examines the original understanding of the Religion Clauses, which proponents of “substantive neutrality” claim supports their position. This Part rejects that claim, concluding that the limited evidence of the original understanding of the First Amendment and the Fourteenth Amendment (under which current doctrine makes the First Amendment's guarantees applicable to the states) does not provide a firm basis for resolving modern debates over exemptions, but is at least as …

On Empathy In Judgment (Measure For Measure), Kenji Yoshino
Cleveland State Law Review

A New Originalism: Adoption Of A Grammatical Interpretive Approach To Establishment Clause Jurisprudence After District Of Columbia V. Helle, Christopher A. Boyko
A New Originalism: Adoption Of A Grammatical Interpretive Approach To Establishment Clause Jurisprudence After District Of Columbia V. Helle, Christopher A. Boyko
Cleveland State Law Review
This thesis proposes an approach to Establishment Clause jurisprudence (and one applicable to constitutional interpretation as a whole) that maintains fidelity to the Constitution by confining the application and interpretation of explicit text to the strictures of well-established norms of grammar and usage. It will begin by analyzing the disparities created through the addition or substitution of super-textual language to the clause through the use of surrogate concepts, and will demonstrate that any such method of constitutional adjudication becomes unworkable and incoherent once such tests utilize surrogate concepts and terminology. Through grammatical exegesis will emerge the theory that the Religion …
Thomas Jefferson, We Have A Problem: The Unconstitutionality Nature Of The U.S.'S Aerospace Export Control Regime As Supposed By Bernstein V. U.S. Department Of Justice , Mike N. Gold
Cleveland State Law Review
All men are created equal, except aerospace workers. This was not how the Declaration of Independence was written, but it is how the U.S. government is currently enforcing its aerospace-related export control restrictions. Specifically, under the auspices of the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (“ITAR”)1 those in the aerospace workforce have unwittingly surrendered their First Amendment rights to free speech. This article will describe how the Ninth Circuit case of Bernstein v. U.S. Department of Justice2 clearly demonstrates the unconstitutional nature of the ITAR and will recommend reforms that would bring America's export control regime back into line with the …
Ohio's New Partnership Law , Jeanne M. Rickert
Ohio's New Partnership Law , Jeanne M. Rickert
Cleveland State Law Review
This article focuses on key areas where Chapter 1776 and RUPA reflect changes in the law of partnerships. This article also highlights how Chapter 1776 differs from RUPA so that lawyers can tailor agreements to Ohio law, and lawyers and courts considering questions of Ohio partnership law can take into account statutory variations when considering the persuasiveness of case law from other jurisdictions that may not have the same statutory rules.
Rarely Tried, And . . . Rarely Successful: Theoretically Impossible Price Predation Among The Airlines, Christopher L. Sagers
Rarely Tried, And . . . Rarely Successful: Theoretically Impossible Price Predation Among The Airlines, Christopher L. Sagers
Law Faculty Articles and Essays
Two large bodies of literature bearing on the competitive health of the deregulated airlines are in sharp conflict: (1) the volumes of judicial and academic output to the effect that the phenomenon of predatory pricing is, as a practical matter, impossible; and (2) the similarly massive body of industry-specific theory and empirical evidence that predation not only occurs in airline markets, but has been a key tool to preserve market power held by the surviving legacy carriers. This article seeks to establish from the latter that the former is a poor basis for policy, especially if there is nothing really …

Dead Men Reproducing: Responding To The Existence Of Afterdeath Children, Browne C. Lewis
Dead Men Reproducing: Responding To The Existence Of Afterdeath Children, Browne C. Lewis
Law Faculty Articles and Essays
The statutory mandates are a step in the right direction, but there is still work that needs to be done. The statutes should be amended to close certain loop holes and to ensure that the physician-facilitated suicide option is available to all of the patients who need it. Persons suffering from physical conditions that will lead to death within six months should not be the only persons permitted to exit gracefully. As long as the safeguards included in the statutes are followed, there is no good reason to prohibit persons suffering from irreversible and incurable physical diseases that lead to …

Dangerously Sidestepping The Fourth Amendment: How Courts Are Allowing Third-Party Consent To Bypass Warrants For Searching Password-Protected Computer, David D. Thomas
Dangerously Sidestepping The Fourth Amendment: How Courts Are Allowing Third-Party Consent To Bypass Warrants For Searching Password-Protected Computer, David D. Thomas
Cleveland State Law Review
This Note sets forth that it is unacceptable for law enforcement to ignore the presence of passwords simply because they may not be immediately visible. Furthermore, it is contrary to the Fourth Amendment for law enforcement to rely on third parties who grant access to search the data without knowledge of the password to unlock the data. Principles hammered out over time for searches and seizures of physically locked objects can easily be transposed and extended to fit the virtual world while still providing people the protections of the Fourth Amendment.

Part II will discuss the problem of punishing sex offenses and describe Donald Dripps' proposed commodity theory solution. Part III will discuss criticisms of using commodity theory as a basis for punishing sexual offenses. Part IV will provide background information on the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines generally and § 2L1.2 of the Guidelines specifically and explain why the circuit split serves as an ideal opportunity to …

Toward A Plain Meaning Approach To Analyzing Title Vii: Employment Discrimination Protection Of Transsexuals, Kevin Schwin
Cleveland State Law Review

Then, the Article will discuss each of the aforementioned approaches and advocate for a logical and consistent manner in which courts should decide cases under Title VII where a transsexual plaintiff alleges discrimination because of sex.

Wolfish decision, including the facts, rationale, and ambiguities of the decision. Next, this Note will examine the subsequent use of the Bell v. Wolfish decision by the federal courts in the context of strip searches conducted pursuant to facilities' booking policies, focusing on the rise of the “reasonable suspicion” standard. Part III of …

Two Fathers, One Dad: Allocating The Paternal Obligations Between The Men Involved In The Artificial Insemination Process, Browne C. Lewis
Two Fathers, One Dad: Allocating The Paternal Obligations Between The Men Involved In The Artificial Insemination Process, Browne C. Lewis
Law Faculty Articles and Essays
Nadya Suleman used sperm from a man she knows to conceive fourteen children using assisted reproduction. It is clear that Suleman is the legal mother of the children. The unanswered question is: "Are the children legally fatherless?" The answer to this question is important because experts predict that it will take well over one million dollars to support the children until they reach the age of majority. My article seeks to provide some insight into the resolution of this issue. Although Suleman did not conceived using artificial insemination, the information examined in my article may be applied to her situation. …
