Employees Beware: How Sb 43 Takes Missouri Anti-Discrimination Law Too Far, Emily Crane
Employees Beware: How Sb 43 Takes Missouri Anti-Discrimination Law Too Far, Emily Crane
The Business, Entrepreneurship & Tax Law Review
SB 43 passed through the Missouri Legislature and was signed into law by Governor Eric Greitens on June 30, 2017. Ostensibly intended to bring Missouri’s anti-discrimination law in line with analogous federal law, SB 43 amended the Missouri Human Rights Act and thereby improperly increased the legal burden on employment discrimination plaintiffs. This article examines the causation standards under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Americans with Disabilities Act and contrasts those with the newly-amended Missouri Human Rights Act to demonstrate just how far Missouri law has gone. In so doing, this article ultimately concludes …
Scientific Analysis Of Undisclosed Contracts, N.I. Askarov
Scientific Analysis Of Undisclosed Contracts, N.I. Askarov
Review of law sciences
The search for new constructions of contracts, not described in law, is connected with the constant search for participants of agreements of simplified and mutually beneficial contract terms. This article described the course of the emergence of non-named contracts with the analysis of the typology and structure of such agreements. Moreover, high priority was given to the modern types of non-named contracts. Also, the article analyzed the application of law analogy to non-named treaties. The opinions of foreign and local scientists on this issue were studied. It is noted that the study of the issue of correct non-named contracts with …

Unintended Consequences Of The Fourteenth Amendment And What They Tell Us About Its Interpretation, Richard L. Aynes
Unintended Consequences Of The Fourteenth Amendment And What They Tell Us About Its Interpretation, Richard L. Aynes
Akron Law Review
Much of the literature, understandably, seeks to find out what the framers of the amendment or the ratifiers of the amendment “intended.”...This article treats that issue as well, but begins with a different question: Does the amendment have consequences which were unintended by the framers? Over one and a quarter centuries ago, Justice Joseph Bradley answered that question in the affirmative: “It is possible that those who framed the article were not themselves aware of the far ranging character of its terms.” I suggest those unintended consequences include the effect of the Citizenship Clause on the force of the Fourteenth …
Do Corporations Have Religious Beliefs?, Jason Iuliano
Do Corporations Have Religious Beliefs?, Jason Iuliano
Indiana Law Journal
Despite two hundred years of jurisprudence on the topic of corporate personhood, the Supreme Court has failed to endorse a philosophically defensible theory of the corporation. In this Article, I attempt to fill that void. Drawing upon the extensive philosophical literature on personhood and group agency, I argue that corporations qualify as persons in their own right. This leads me to answer the titular question with an emphatic yes. Contrary to how it first seems, that conclusion does not warrant granting expansive constitutional rights to corporations. It actually suggests the opposite. Using the Affordable Care Act’s contraception mandate as a …

Unilateral Home State Regulation: Imperialism Or Tool For Subaltern Resistance?, Sara L. Seck
Unilateral Home State Regulation: Imperialism Or Tool For Subaltern Resistance?, Sara L. Seck
Osgoode Hall Law Journal
Home state reluctance to regulate international corporate activities in the human rights context is sometimes characterized as an imperialistic infringement of host state sovereignty. This concern may be explicit, or it may be implicit in an expressed desire to avoid conflict with the sovereignty of foreign states. Yet, in the absence of a multilateral treaty directly addressing business and human rights, a regulatory role for home states in preventing and remedying human rights harms is increasingly being suggested. This paper seeks to explore theoretical perspectives that support unilateral home state regulation. Having established that unilateral home state regulation could serve …
Exclusion And Expulsion From Non-Profit Organizations - The Civil Rights Aspect, Robert S. Pasley
Exclusion And Expulsion From Non-Profit Organizations - The Civil Rights Aspect, Robert S. Pasley
Cleveland State Law Review
To what extent do voluntary non-profit associations have the right (a) to deny admission to membership, and (b) to expel existing members? Space does not permit discussion of all the ramifications of these two questions and some limitation of scope becomes necessary. The theme selected has been the "civil rights" aspect of the problem; more specifically, the right, in certain areas, to be protected against racial and religious discrimination, and the privilege to exercise the ordinary rights of citizenship, such as the right of free speech, of petition, of voting, of resort to the courts, and to employment.
