The Interaction Between The Principles Of Syntax And Jurisprudence

UAEU Law Journal

Syntax has affected the science of Islamic law (Sharia) including jurisprudence (Fiqh) and its methodologies; it also has been influenced by some of the jurist's (Fuqaha) terminologies and their ideologies (Madh'hib). This research addresses the productive interaction between syntax and its principles on the one hand and jurisprudence and its methodologies on the other in four sections: the impact of syntax on jurisprudence, the impact of syntax on jurisprudence methodologies, the impact of jurisprudence on syntax and the impact of jurisprudence methodologies on syntax's principles.

The study ends with several results; the most important are the following:

- That the …

Recent Developments, Clinton T. Summers

Arkansas Law Review

The United States Supreme Court upheld an Arkansas law regulating how pharmacies are reimbursed by pharmacy benefit managers. In Rutledge v. Pharmaceutical Care Management Ass’n, a unanimous Court decided that Arkansas Act 900, passed in 2015, was not pre-empted by the federal Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”).

Learning From The Past: Using Korematsu And Other Japanese Internment Cases To Provide Protections Against Immigration Detentions, Caleb Ward

Arkansas Law Review

One of the darkest periods in modern United States history is reoccurring with mixed public approval. During World War II, the United States government enacted executive orders creating a curfew, proscribing living areas, and forcing the exclusion and detention of all Japanese descendants from the West Coast. The United States justified these grievous freedom and equality violations through an increased need for national security “because we [were] at war with [Japan].” However, this perceived increased need for national security came from a fraudulent assessment showing any Japanese-American could be planning espionage or sabotage of the United States. After the war, …

Settled Law, G. Alexander Nunn, Alan M. Trammell

Faculty Scholarship

“Settled law” appears frequently in judicial opinions — sometimes to refer to binding precedent, sometimes to denote precedent that has acquired a more mystical permanence, and sometimes as a substantive part of legal doctrine. During judicial confirmation hearings, the term is bandied about as Senators, advocacy groups, and nominees discuss judicial philosophy and deeper ideological commitments. But its varying and often contradictory uses have given rise to a concern that settled law is simply a repository for hopelessly disparate ideas. Without definitional precision, it risks becoming nothing more than empty jargon.

We contend that settled law is actually a meaningful …

The Morality Of Fiduciary Law, Paul B. Miller

William & Mary Law Review

Recent work of fiduciary theory has provided conceptual synthesis requisite to understanding core fiduciary principles and the structure of fiduciary liability. However, normative questions have received only sporadic attention. What values animate fiduciary law? How does, or should, fiduciary law prove responsive to them?

While in other areas of private law theory—notably, tort theory— pioneering scholars went directly at normative questions like these, fiduciary theory has been exceptional in the reticence shown toward them. The reticence is sensible. Fiduciary principles are the product of equity’s most extended and convoluted program of supplementing surrounding law. They span several distinct forms of …

Reasoning The Legitimate Discourse And The Impact On Its Interpretation; A Judicial Doctrinal Study, Maher Haswa

Legal Protection For The Sports Events’ Sponsors And Organizers From Ambush Marketing, Fayez Mohammed Al Nusair

UAEU Law Journal

Sports events are very important these days due to the fans' passion in following and watching them, therefore it is unacceptable to stop or interrupt the broadcasting of these events.

There is no doubt that the cost of organizing such events is very high, hence it became a necessity to find ways to cover the cost. One of these ways is sponsorship contracts. And in order to get sponsorship, it is necessary to give sponsors the appropriate legal protection especially against ambush marketing.

The western jurisprudence has adopted several solutions to stop ambush marketing practices, such as registering sports events …

The Image Of European Union Law In Bilateral Relations, Sharon Pardo, Lior Zemer

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

The impact of foreign law on the development of national laws has been analyzed and vindicated in numerous studies in comparative legal literature. These studies typically focus on the two most prominent legal systems--common law (the Anglo-American system) and civil law (the Continental system). The historical reasons for this are clear, emanating from the fact that the world's legal systems are based on these legal regimes and are amended in the spirit of changes made to them. Over the years, however, with the many effects of legal and economic globalization, legal systems have become a diverse mosaic which has appropriated …

What's The Deal With Revlon?, Zachary Gubler

Indiana Law Journal

Under the Revlon doctrine, courts are to apply a higher level of scrutiny in certain takeover situations in an attempt to control potential conflicts of interest that might prejudice target shareholders. However, the doctrine has always had sufficient “play in the joints” that one might reasonably wonder whether it has much of an effect in practice on short-term shareholder returns. Additionally, in recent years, the trend in Delaware’s Revlon jurisprudence seems to be to defer to the target board as long as there are no glaring conflicts of interest. Taken together, these facts raise concern over the continued relevance of …

Submission To House Of Commons General Committee On Judicial Review And Courts Bill 152 2021-22 (Prospective Quashing Orders), Samuel Beswick

All Faculty Publications

I disagree with the proposal in the Judicial Review and Courts Bill, clause 1(1)(29A)(1)(b), to create prospective-only remedies in judicial review, because:

a. Prospective Quashing violates Professor A.V. Dicey’s canonical three meanings of the Rule of Law.

b. The premise of Subsection (1)(b), ‘that legal certainty, and hence the Rule of Law, may be best served by only prospectively invalidating’ impugned acts, is contradicted by the leading mainstream theories of adjudication in the common law world.

c. Prospective Quashing draws judges into making policy and encourages judicial activism.

d. Prospective Quashing is inconsistent with the English common law judicial method …

As A Matter Of Fact: Reasserting The Role Of Basic Facts In Veterans Court Jurisprudence, Jeffrey D. Parker

Saint Louis University Law Journal

Unique to legal literature, this article outlines the most basic and unsexy nature of fact finding at the lowest tribunal – what is decided by a lower tribunal after weighing the different stories and conflicting evidence, and after deciding which story to believe or which evidence has more value. While legal holdings and precedents are much more engaging to the legal mind, such legal “holdings” are heavily dependent upon the basic facts found for support. A legal rule without supporting facts is mere dicta, while a legal rule squarely derived from the facts forms a legal precedent.

This article identifies …

Dissenting From The Bench, Christine Venter

Journal Articles

This paper examines the oral dissents of Justices Antonin Scalia and Ruth Bader Ginsburg from the year 2000 to the times of their respective deaths. It explores the concept and purpose of oral dissent and details the kinds of cases in which each justice was more likely to orally dissent. The paper analyzes the kinds of rhetoric that each justice used to refer to their subject matter, and argues that Scalia's rhetoric evinces a view of the law as "autonomous", operating independently of the facts of the case. In contrast, Ginsburg's view espouses a view of the law as responsive …

Federal Judge Seeks Patent Cases, Jonas Anderson, Paul R. Gugliuzza

That probably seems like a bizarre Craigslist ad. It’s not real—we mocked it up for this article. Still, and startlingly, it accurately portrays what’s happening in the Waco Division of the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas. One judge, appointed to the Western District only three years ago, has been advertising his courtroom through presentations to patent lawyers, comments to the media, procedural practices, and decisions in patent cases as the place to file a patent infringement lawsuit. That advertising has succeeded. In 2016 and 2017, the Waco Division received a total of five patent cases. In …

Submission To The Ministry Of Justice On Judicial Review: Proposals For Reform – ‘Prospective Invalidation/Overruling’, Samuel Beswick

All Faculty Publications

The Government Response to the Independent Review of Administrative Law proposes to provide judges a discretionary power to grant prospective-only remedies in judicial review proceedings. It further proposes to legislate a presumption or a requirement of prospective-only remedies when statutory instruments are quashed. The Government’s Report relies on arguments made in Sir Stephen Laws QC’s IRAL Submission advocating for prospective-only judicial remedies. My submission responds to the content of both documents.

The Government should abandon its proposal to legislate in favour of Prospective Invalidation in the judicial review context (and in any other context) because:

a. Prospective Invalidation violates the …

Disruptive Implications Of Legal Positivism’S Social Efficacy Thesis, Brian Z. Tamanaha

Scholarship@WashULaw

The social efficacy thesis holds that for law to exist it must be generally obeyed by the populace. Accepted by virtually all legal positivists, this is the most neglected thesis of legal positivism. Despite its nigh universal acceptance by theorists, however, the efficacy thesis is surrounded with unanswered questions with significant implications. Several questions immediately come to mind: How widespread must conformity to law be? What must people conform to (all areas of law)? Who must conform (legal officials, government officials, the entire populace, significant groups)? What does conformity entail (normatively, knowingly, behaviorally)? This essay explores these issues and a …
