Judicial Audiences And Reputation: Perspectives From Comparative Law, Nuno Garoupa, Tom Ginsburg
Judicial Audiences And Reputation: Perspectives From Comparative Law, Nuno Garoupa, Tom Ginsburg
Faculty Scholarship
Whether judges are motivated to make good law or maximize policy goals, they need to develop and maintain a good reputation with some audience. We distinguish internal and external audiences for individual judicial decision-making: internal audiences are those within the judiciary itself, while external audiences include lawyers, the media or the general public. Different legal systems emphasize different audiences: some rely on external audiences that encourage judges to invest in their individual reputations, while others emphasize internal audiences that facilitate the collective reputation of the judiciary as a whole. The article analyzes the interaction between internal and external audiences over …
The Comparative Law And Economics Of Judicial Councils, Nuno Garoupa, Tom Ginsburg
The Comparative Law And Economics Of Judicial Councils, Nuno Garoupa, Tom Ginsburg
Faculty Scholarship
In recent decades, many countries around the world have institutionalized judicial councils, institutions designed to enhance judicial independence and accountability. Our paper, the first comparative inquiry into this phenomenon, has two aims. First, we provide an economic theory of the formation of judicial councils and identify some of the dimensions along which they differ. Second, we discuss the national experience of several legal systems in light of our theory.
A Failed Legal Periodical/Newspaper Of Mid-Nineteenth Century Pennsylvania: Olwine's Law Journal (December 29, 1849 To May 18, 1850), Joel Fishman
Law Faculty Publications
In reviewing the history of Pennsylvania legal periodicals, Olwine's Law Journal has one of the shortest publishing histories covering less than five months from late December 1849 to mid- May 1850.1 The newspaper was published weekly on Saturday in quarto size, in twenty-one issues over the six-month period. Each issue consisted of eight pages, consecutively paginated, with 168 pages in the entire publication. Isaac Wayne Olwine (1827?- 1863) was the editor of the newspaper and served as Deputy Prothonotary of the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County, whose father Anthony was prothonotary at the time.
Building Intellectual Property Coalitions For Development, Peter K. Yu
Building Intellectual Property Coalitions For Development, Peter K. Yu
Faculty Scholarship
The adoption of the WIPO Development Agenda in October 2007 has provided less developed countries with a rare and unprecedented opportunity to reshape the international intellectual property system in a way that would better advance their interests. However, if these countries are to succeed, they need to take advantage of the current momentum, coordinate better with other countries and nongovernmental organizations, and more actively share with others their experience, knowledge, and best practices.
Commissioned by the EDGE (Emerging Dynamic Global Economies) Network of the University of Ottawa, this paper begins by explaining how building intellectual property coalitions for development (IPC4D) …
Irreconcilable Differences? The Troubled Marriage Of Science And Law, Susan Haack
Irreconcilable Differences? The Troubled Marriage Of Science And Law, Susan Haack
Law and Contemporary Problems
There haven't always been scientific witnesses: in fact, there haven't always been witnesses. In early medieval times, courts relied on tests by oath, ordeal, and sometimes by combat. Here, Haack provides a brief historical background to the use of scientific experts in law and then proceeds to discuss in greater detail the values underlying scientific inquiry, the uncertainty in the quest of knowledge and understanding, and the methods by which consensus is reached, even if that consensus is always tentative. She then contrasts scientific inquiry with the law's quest for "truth" in the courtroom and, particularly, the normative and temporal …

Science, Law And The Expert Witness, Joseph Sanders
Science, Law And The Expert Witness, Joseph Sanders
Law and Contemporary Problems
Expert witnessing is a particularly useful place to observe the clash of legal and scientific conventions because it is here that one group of people (scientific experts) who are integrated into one set of conventions are challenged by the expectations of a different set of conventions. Here, Sanders looks at how legal conventions affect the behavior of expert witnesses when they appear in court in both criminal and civil cases. He also reviews differences in scientific and legal conventions as they apply to expert knowledge and discusses two central reasons for these differences: adversarialism and closure.
How Much Evidence Is Enough? Conventions Of Causal Inference, David Kriebel
How Much Evidence Is Enough? Conventions Of Causal Inference, David Kriebel
Law and Contemporary Problems
One of the most important issues for science in the courtroom is the determination of causality. Like science in the courtroom, science in the regulatory arena can also bring a clash of cultures, misunderstanding, and controversy--especially when decisions must be made with some urgency with interested parties watching closely. Here, Kriebel discusses some conventions in the conduct of science and in the ways that scientific information is communicated to nonscientists that can make it difficult for judges, lawyers, regulators, and politicians to do their jobs making decisions about complex environmental and health issues.
Trials And Tribulations: What Happens When Historians Enter The Courtroom, David Rosner
Trials And Tribulations: What Happens When Historians Enter The Courtroom, David Rosner
Law and Contemporary Problems
In recent years, historians have been brought into legal cases in unprecedented numbers. As the courts have tried to adjudicate responsibility for environmental and occupational diseases, history has played an increasingly central role in decisions that affect the cases themselves and in social policy regarding risk. In suits over tobacco-related diseases, asbestosis, radiation, and other toxic substances, more historians of technology and science, social history, and public health are being sought to provide testimony aimed at assessing responsibility for damages that have arisen years--sometimes decades--after exposure. Here, Rosner traces the use of historians as experts in litigation.
Merton And The Hot Tub: Scientific Conventions And Expert Evidence In Australian Civil Procedure, Gary Edmond
Merton And The Hot Tub: Scientific Conventions And Expert Evidence In Australian Civil Procedure, Gary Edmond
Law and Contemporary Problems
Recently in Australia, common-law judges began to modify the way expert evidence is prepared and presented. Judges from a range of civil jurisdictions have conscientiously sought to reduce expert partisanship and the extent of expert disagreement in an attempt to enhance procedural efficiency and improve access to justice. One of these reforms, concurrent evidence, enables expert witnesses to participate in a joint session with considerable testimonial latitude. This represents a shift away from an adversarial approach and a conscientious attempt to foster scientific values and norms. Here, Edmond describes how changes to Australian civil procedure, motivated by judicial concerns about …
In Defense Of “Footnote Four”: A Historical Analysis Of The New Deal’S Effect On Land Regulation In The U.S. Supreme Court, Christopher S. Dodrill
In Defense Of “Footnote Four”: A Historical Analysis Of The New Deal’S Effect On Land Regulation In The U.S. Supreme Court, Christopher S. Dodrill
Law and Contemporary Problems
At the turn of the nineteenth century, the US Supreme Court established and reinforced numerous so-called "economic rights." During the Lochner v. New York era, the Court invalidated almost 200 federal and state economic and labor regulations for interfering with the right to contract and for violating substantive due process. In 1937, however, Justice Stone's famous "footnote four" in United States v. Carolene Products Co. closed the coffin on Lochner. After Carolene Products, the Court stopped applying heightened scrutiny to economic legislation, and it began consciously protecting "discrete and insular minorities." Here, Dodrill explains the Lochner-era Supreme Court's standard of …
Rethinking Visitation: From A Parental To A Relational Right, Ayelet Blecher-Prigat
Rethinking Visitation: From A Parental To A Relational Right, Ayelet Blecher-Prigat
Duke Journal of Gender Law & Policy
[...] visitation rights are considered to arise from the very fact of parenthood, so that parents are entitled to this right simply by being legally recognized as parents. [...] visitation rights are subject to the general rule of parental exclusivity: only a child's legal parents have rights considered parental, and non-parents cannot acquire them.
What’S Love Got To Do With It? A Proposal For Elevating The Status Of Marriage By Narrowing Its Definition, While Universally Extending The Rights And Benefits Enjoyed By Married Couples, James L. Musselman
Duke Journal of Gender Law & Policy
[...] opposite-sex couples desiring a traditional marriage could choose the option that generally adopts portions of the covenant marriage law enacted thus far by three states. According to Professors Jennifer Drobac and Antony Page, [b]efore the late eighteenth century, marriage typically only served one or more of three goals: (1) to consolidate wealth and resources, (2) to forge political alliances, and (3) to consummate peace treaties.
In The Wake Of Ledbetter V. Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company: Applying The Discovery Rule To Determine The Start Of The Limitations Period For Pay Discrimination Claims, Nancy Zisk
Duke Journal of Gender Law & Policy
"14 These laws include Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964,15 Section 1981 of the Civil War Reconstruction statutes,16 the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (ADEA),17 the Equal Pay Act (EPA),18 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA).19 While the statutes define different types of discrimination, each addresses discrimination in employment and defines a limitations period in which an employee can bring a claim.20 With Title VII defining the "paradigm," the first step in determining whether a claim is timely under any statute is determining when the discriminatory act takes place.21 To do that, …

Duke Journal of Gender Law & Policy
[...] a brief history of marital and naming practices will outline how these two concepts have shifted to a primarily private issue today, as compared with the Middle Ages, when they were primarily public issues highly concerned with property matters. [...] naming involves important issues in the construction of one's identity.
The Bfoq Defense: Title Vii’S Concession To Gender Discrimination, Katie Manley
The Bfoq Defense: Title Vii’S Concession To Gender Discrimination, Katie Manley
Duke Journal of Gender Law & Policy
Should the BFOQ exception still exist? Because permitting discrimination under Title VII seems fundamentally contrary to the anti-discrimination purpose of the statute, this article questions whether the BFOQ defense is consistent with the aims of Title VII or whether, in actuality, the defense undermines the Act's effectiveness by providing a loophole for employers to participate in the discriminatory practices Title VII seeks to forbid.
