Real Property, Real Problems: Expanding Alaska's Unfair Trade Practices And Consumer Protection Act, Michael E. Keramidas Dec 2021

Real Property, Real Problems: Expanding Alaska's Unfair Trade Practices And Consumer Protection Act, Michael E. Keramidas

Alaska Law Review

Alaska’s Unfair and Deceptive Acts and Practices (UDAP) statute was designed to provide broad, robust protections for everyday Alaskan consumers. Astonishingly, Alaska is one of only three states that does not protect Alaskans under its UDAP statute when they fall victim to fraudulent schemes involving real property. The Alaska Supreme Court has consistently upheld this interpretation of the UDAP statute by relying on precedent from over thirty years ago. At the same time, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, everyday Alaskans are more economically vulnerable than ever before, with the atmosphere being ripe for proliferation of fraudulent real property schemes. This …

Do You Know It When You See It? Using Alaska's Child Pornography Statute As A Nationwide Model For Proscribing Morphed Images, Daisy Gray Dec 2021

Do You Know It When You See It? Using Alaska's Child Pornography Statute As A Nationwide Model For Proscribing Morphed Images, Daisy Gray

Alaska Law Review

In 1982, the United States Supreme Court addressed the tension between free speech and protecting children by holding child pornography outside the scope of First Amendment protections. Critical to the Court’s decision was the fact that child sexual abuse is necessary to produce child pornography. But what if technological advancement removed child abuse from the equation? The recent phenomena of virtual child pornography and morphed images involve the digital alteration of adult pornography to create the appearance of child pornography. The Alaska legislature amended its child pornography statute in response to these developments, proscribing the possession of morphed images. While …


The Ballot Is Stronger Than The Bullet: Alaska's Superior Strict Scrutiny Approach To Ballot Access Laws, Ben Sheppard, Josh Guckert Dec 2021

The Ballot Is Stronger Than The Bullet: Alaska's Superior Strict Scrutiny Approach To Ballot Access Laws, Ben Sheppard, Josh Guckert

Alaska Law Review

Restrictive ballot access laws are the most burdensome requirement for third-party candidates. Such laws implicate First Amendment freedoms to associate both publicly and privately with like-minded individuals in order to advance political causes. Alaskan courts review state ballot access laws under the demanding standard of strict scrutiny. This standard was adopted through the efforts of Joe Vogler and his Alaskan Independence Party. The authors contend that such a standard has fostered Alaska’s unique openness toward third-party candidacies. Nonetheless, the Supreme Court of the United States does not utilize this same strict scrutiny review, instead using the Anderson-Burdick test, which balances …

Broken Promesa: Why The United States Should Abandon Its Use Of The Territories Clause To Control The Local Affairs Of Puerto Rico, Julia R. Cummings Dec 2021

Broken Promesa: Why The United States Should Abandon Its Use Of The Territories Clause To Control The Local Affairs Of Puerto Rico, Julia R. Cummings

Brooklyn Law Review

Puerto Rico’s sovereignty status is an anomaly. Since the United States acquired the island in 1898, the federal government has treated Puerto Ricans differently compared to residents of its other acquired territories. The United States also exerts significant control over Puerto Rico’s local affairs, most recently through the enactment and enforcement of the Puerto Rico Oversight, Management, and Economic Stability Act (PROMESA) in response to the current debt crisis in Puerto Rico. This note assesses the validity of the federal government’s use of the territories clause to control local Puerto Rican affairs, examining the complex history between the United States …

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Poland, and the need to introduce numerous restrictions in the public and private spheres, the liquidity of Polish consumers was disrupted and many lost their source of income. There was therefore a justified fear, in particular on the part of the Polish Government and the Polish Competition Authority, that consumers would turn to consumer credit providers, in particular lending institutions, to maintain their liquidity. New – temporary – limits for non-interest credit costs were established in March 2020. The limits were set up separately for loans with a repayment period of up to 30 …

The period from November 3, 2020 to January 20, 2021, was unlike any presidential transition in our history. President Donald Trump refused to accept his ballot-box defeat, instead battling to overturn the election’s outcome. This dramatic public campaign was waged in state and federal courts, state legislatures, the offices of state and local election officials, the Department of Justice, and finally the halls of Congress, where on January 6, 2021, a mob incited by the President stormed the Capitol with the explicit goal of preventing the final counting of electoral votes for Joe Biden.
