The Scope Of Criminal Restitution: Awarding Unliquidated Damages In Sentencing Hearings, Bradford Mank

Faculty Articles and Other Publications

During the past several years a variety of victim groups have forced the criminal justice system to pay more attention to the restitution needs of victims! Criminal courts, however, are still limited in the types of restitution they may award. Typically, sentencing judges can award restitution for the whole range of liquidated damages including the value of stolen or destroyed property, medical expenses, and lost past wages. In most jurisdictions, however, criminal courts cannot award restitution for unliquidated damages involving compensation for pain and suffering, or for lost future earning capacity. Crime victims must initiate a civil suit at their …

Cable Television's New Legal Universe: Early Judicial Response To The Cable Act, Michael I. Meyerson

All Faculty Scholarship

On October 29, 1984, a new era began in the relationship between law and cable television. On that day, the first major law regulation cable television, the Cable Communications Policy Act of 1984,was signed into law.

Early judicial attempts to interpret the Cable Act revealed the difficulties judges had with understanding the new legal regimen. A common thread running through these varied cases, if any, was the courts' apparent lack of appreciation of the Act's complexity. Many, though not all, decisions appear to misread congressional language and misinterpret congressional intent. The first part of this Article will discuss this problem …

Promissory Estoppel In The Supreme Court Of Canada, J A. Manwaring

Dalhousie Law Journal

In 1972, Viscount Hailsham of St Marylebone said- ... the time may soon come when the whole sequence of cases based on promissory estoppel since the war ... may need to be reviewed and reduced to a coherent body of doctrine by the courts. I do not mean to say that they are to be regarded with suspicion. But as is common with an expanding doctrine, they do raise problems of coherent exposition which have never been systematically explored I Promissory estoppel has yet to receive serious attention from the Supreme Court of Canada, in spite of the fact that …

Sobeys Stores Limited V. Yeomans Et Al: A Case Comment, Michael V. Coyle

Dalhousie Law Journal

In Sobeys Store Limited v. Yeomans et aLI the Appeal Division of the Nova Scotia Supreme Court seems to strike down the provisions of the provincial Labour Standards Code2 that make reinstatement a viable remedy for senior workers who have been dismissed without just cause. In reality, the judgement, now on appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada, may have missed its mark by a wide margin and, despite the obvious intention of the Court, left these very provisions untouched in the result.

Racketeer Influenced And Corrupt Organizations (Rico)—Securities And Commercial Fraud As Racketeering Crime After Sedima: What Is A "Pattern Of Racketeering Activity"?, Barbara Black

Faculty Articles and Other Publications

Congress enacted the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) in 1970 in order to stem the infiltration and corruption of legitimate businesses by organized crime. During the 1970's, civil litigants virtually ignored the statute, but in the 1980's the utility of RICO's civil provisions has come to be generally recognized. Attorneys representing the victims of securities and commercial fraud now routinely add a claim alleging a RICO violation. Ii It is the attractiveness of the remedy - the successful plaintiff's recovery of treble damages and attorney's fees - that has led to this ever increasing use of RICO.

Child Custody - Jurisdiction And Procedure, Christopher L. Blakesley

Scholarly Works

Custody determinations traditionally have comprised a subcategory of litigation under the Pennoyer v. Neff exception for proceedings relating to status. Of course, states have the power to decide the status of their domiciliaries. It was natural, therefore, for the courts and scholars of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to consider domicile the sole basis of jurisdiction in custody matters. Gradually, judges and scholars began to challenge the notion that domicile was the sole basis and courts began to apply other bases, such as the child's presence in the state or personal jurisdiction over both parents. One commentator suggests that …
