Review Of Veterans Law Decisions Of The Federal Circuit, 2022-2023 Edition, Hugh Barrett Mcclean Jan 2024

Review Of Veterans Law Decisions Of The Federal Circuit, 2022-2023 Edition, Hugh Barrett Mcclean

All Faculty Scholarship

In 2022 to 2023, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (“Federal Circuit”) continued its conversation with the Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims (“Veterans Court”), Department of Veterans Affairs (“VA”), and veterans to help sculpt the jurisprudence coming from the youngest of the federal courts, the Veterans Court. The Federal Circuit’s jurisprudence addressed ten main legal issues: class actions, petitions for writ of mandamus under the All Writs Act, defining standards of proof with the term “results from,” the benefit of the doubt doctrine post-Lynch, education benefits, less than honorable discharges, the rating schedule, implicit …

Music, Mayhem, And A Mississippi: Still Burning-The Hope Of Smothering The Deleterious Effects Of Deliberate Indifference, Angela Dixon Jan 2024

Music, Mayhem, And A Mississippi: Still Burning-The Hope Of Smothering The Deleterious Effects Of Deliberate Indifference, Angela Dixon

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The article argues that the deliberate indifference standard, as applied in Eighth Amendment jurisprudence, fails to adequately address inhumane and unconstitutional prison conditions, particularly in Mississippi. It critiques the standard for prioritizing prison officials' intent over objective conditions, allowing systemic neglect and racial disparities to persist. The analysis advocates for a shift toward an objective standard to better protect human dignity and hold prison administrators accountable.


Open Hunting Season: Black Bodies As A Threatened Species, Mark C. Grafenreed Jan 2024

Open Hunting Season: Black Bodies As A Threatened Species, Mark C. Grafenreed

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

Tracing the Endangered Species Act of 1973 provides striking parallels with the historical, legal, and cultural aspects of bondage mapped upon Black bodies. The United States Congress promulgated the Endangered Species Act to protect and conserve threatened and endangered wildlife species. However, this gives rise to a serious moral dilemma and cognitive dissonance in that nearly 1,500 wildlife species benefit from the Endangered Species Act's protections. At the same time, Black bodies disproportionately suffer without similar federal protections. Congress has strengthened the Endangered Species Act's force through four amendments since its inception, even while there have been mounting threats to …


Conceptual Schemes/Frameworks And Their Relation To Law: A New Argument For Separation Of Church And State, Vincent J. Samar Jan 2024

Conceptual Schemes/Frameworks And Their Relation To Law: A New Argument For Separation Of Church And State, Vincent J. Samar

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

A central question that arises when interpreting the U.S. Constitution is which theory of interpretation is the best? In his recent book, "How to Interpret the Constitution," Cass Sunstein reviews various theories of constitutional interpretation currently in vogue and then offers what he believes would be the best approach going forward. In this Article, I want to take up a more basic question presupposed by the very idea of a theory of interpretation. That is, whether it is even possible to arrive at more than a provisional understanding of what would be the best interpretation in any given area of …

Death At The Door Of Relief: The Criminalization Of Humanitarian Work And Asylum, William Fox Jan 2024

Death At The Door Of Relief: The Criminalization Of Humanitarian Work And Asylum, William Fox

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The note argues that the criminalization of humanitarian aid to migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border violates international human rights law and exacerbates a growing refugee crisis. It contends that the U.S. government's "prevention through deterrence" policy funnels migrants into dangerous conditions, leading to increased deaths and human rights violations. The analysis calls for structural reforms, including expanded humanitarian parole, temporary protected status, and refugee resettlement programs, to align U.S. policy with its international obligations and mitigate the crisis.


If It Can Make It There, It Can Make It Anywhere: How New York's "Green Amendment" Is Catalyzing Environmental Progress In Light Of Federal Failures, Zoe Zingale Jan 2024

If It Can Make It There, It Can Make It Anywhere: How New York's "Green Amendment" Is Catalyzing Environmental Progress In Light Of Federal Failures, Zoe Zingale

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The note examines the challenges faced by minority and low-income communities in seeking legal redress for environmental injustices, highlighting how federal legal avenues like Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 have been limited by Supreme Court rulings. It proposes that state-level Green Amendments, such as New York's, offer a promising alternative for these communities to assert their right to a healthy environment and seek relief from disparate environmental impacts.
