Reflections On The Rule Of Law, Chesterfield Smith
Reflections On The Rule Of Law, Chesterfield Smith
St. Thomas Law Review
Justice, fairness, and freedom traditionally have best been assured through the rule of law. Unfortunately, over the years, that truism has led Americans en masse to place less and less interest in developing standards of value above the law. Indeed, our country no longer is ruled by moral consensus. It is ruled instead by the ethic of laws. Thoughtful people understandably are beginning to question whether law alone can fill the void left by the diminished accountability and the lessened responsibility now rampantly evident in individual Americans. However, to those who yearn for a differing quality of societal rules, there …
The Role Of The Lawyer In Society, Wm. Reese Smith Jr.
The Role Of The Lawyer In Society, Wm. Reese Smith Jr.
St. Thomas Law Review
The task of adequately addressing the role of the lawyer in society is not without challenge because of the breadth and complexity of the subject. And necessarily, because my background has given me greater knowledge of the role of law and lawyers in the West, my analysis here draws heavily on the history and traditions of Western societies, while trying to be mindful of other legal traditions as well. Because the great difference among legal systems seems so obvious, perhaps one should begin by focusing on shared experiences in the development of the role of law in society. All legal …
Saudi-Arabian Contract Law: A Comparative Perspective, Carol Lee Childress
Saudi-Arabian Contract Law: A Comparative Perspective, Carol Lee Childress
St. Thomas Law Review
This paper will focus on a core component of Saudi Arabian business law - the law of contracts - and will look at its development from a U.S. lawyer's perspective. A brief history of Islam and the basic tenets of Islamic law along with a brief description of the Saudi Arabian governmental structure will provide the necessary background information. This paper will go on to highlight the roots of Saudi Arabian contract law in the teachings of Islam, including the conflicts over the interpretation of the Shari'a, and point out aspects of Islamic law that are quite foreign to the …

Introduction
St. Thomas Law Review
The ST. THOMAS LAW FORUM is designed, first, to give aspiring student writers a platform to display their craft and the force of their imagination. Second, the FORUM affords top students an opportunity they enjoy at most other institutions of legal education: to edit a law review. The editing function hones their skills of legal writing and of written communication in general. It also forces them to observe and enforce the strict standards of the profession. Experience on a law review is a badge of honor, worn proudly throughout a lifetime in the legal profession. Third, and most important, the …

The Manipulation Of Consent: Congressional Limits On Early Election Calls And The United States Constitution, Richard A. Morgan
The Manipulation Of Consent: Congressional Limits On Early Election Calls And The United States Constitution, Richard A. Morgan
St. Thomas Law Review
This article will investigate the disruption created by the early election predictions. It will evaluate the usefulness and lawfulness of a federal enactment that would prevent the networks from disseminating exit polling data on Presidential elections prematurely. It will conclude that such restraints do not contravene the First Amendment, or other provisions of the Constitution of the United States.

The Prosecutor's Wild Card: Certifying Juveniles For Trial As Adults Under The Indictment Provision Of The Florida Juvenile Justice Act, Barbara Jean Burns
St. Thomas Law Review
To brand a child a criminal for life is harsh enough retribution for almost any offense. But it becomes an all but inconceivable response when we realize that to so brand him may in fact make him a criminal for life.... [C]asting a youthful offender to the wolves who prowl adult jails may well dash any hope that he will mature to be a civilized man. During the last thirty years, the juvenile justice system has been the focus of controversy ranging from concern over the lack of "due process" safeguards inherent in its informal procedures, to public outrage over …

Response, [To Kathryn Abrams, Hiring Woman], Thomas B. Mcaffee
Scholarly Works
This article is a response to an article by Professor Kathryn Abram about the recruitment and hiring of women law professors. Professor McAffee confronts an issue that Professor Abrams does not—that of giving women a “preference” in hiring. Professor McAffee also adds to Professor Abrams’ reflections about the question of how law schools should go about hiring more women.

Hedonic Damages: Properly A Factor Within Pain And Suffering Under 42 U.S.C. Section 1983, Patrick B. Murray
Hedonic Damages: Properly A Factor Within Pain And Suffering Under 42 U.S.C. Section 1983, Patrick B. Murray
Northern Illinois University Law Review
This article analyzes the developing trend of awarding damages for the loss of life's pleasures, i.e., "hedonic damages." Although framed within the context of 42 U.S.C. § 1983, the article addresses the underlying tort principles to be considered by all courts when fashioning appropriate remedies. Whether hedonic damages should be awarded in addition to those traditionally granted for pain and suffering and whether courts overstep their authority in this area are considered. This article takes the position that hedonic damages are an illegitimate exercise which result in duplicative recovery for the plaintiff and an attempt to punish the defendant commensurate …
Coy V. Iowa: The Effect Of A Face-To-Face Confrontation Requirement On Statutes Shielding Child Witnesses, Janet D. Glick
Coy V. Iowa: The Effect Of A Face-To-Face Confrontation Requirement On Statutes Shielding Child Witnesses, Janet D. Glick
Northern Illinois University Law Review
This note examines the Supreme Court's decision which precludes the use of a screen to obstruct a witness' view of the defendant during a criminal trial. Although the Court attached great importance to the psychological impact of facing the accused, this note concludes the Coy decision will not serve to prohibit obstructing a witness' view of the defendant when such measures are found necessary to protect the witness.

Corporate Counsels' Lack Of Retaliatory Discharge Action, Nancy K. Renfer
Corporate Counsels' Lack Of Retaliatory Discharge Action, Nancy K. Renfer
Northern Illinois University Law Review
This comment examines the denial of a retaliatory discharge cause of action to corporate counsel. Such a denial was the result of judicial concern over the need to protect the attorney-client relationship. The author concludes that, as a result, corporate attorneys have fewer employment rights and protections than any of their fellow employees. This comment advocates three possible solutions through which corporate counsel may maintain a retaliatory discharge action.
Law, Medicine, And Social Justice, Todd D. Volker
Law, Medicine, And Social Justice, Todd D. Volker
Northern Illinois University Law Review
This review examines the recent book by Larry L. Palmer, Vice President for Academic Programs and Professor of Law at Cornell University. The book itself, an analysis of the interplay between law and medicine in light of contemporary advances in health care, offers a social, "institutional" approach for dealing with the problems presented by recent medical developments. According to Volker, Palmer's work makes great strides toward practical answers to some of the more pressing moral questions of our time.

The Teaching Of Law In France, Claudine Bloch
The Teaching Of Law In France, Claudine Bloch
Dalhousie Law Journal
For a little over thirty years the teaching of law in France has conjured up the image of a vast expanse of land, the boundaries of which are continually being extended: the observer will see a succession of cultivated fields, plots of land which are constantly being tilled so that one wonders if they will ever bear a crop; but he will also see ground lying fallow which is coveted by the wealthy and the pioneers: they plough their furrows, which they then either abandon or untiringly plough even deeper or longer. These remarks, preceding the presentation of so serious …

Enforceability Of Guarantees By Charitable Organizations, Carl H. Wartman
Enforceability Of Guarantees By Charitable Organizations, Carl H. Wartman
Northern Illinois University Law Review
When a group of linked charitable organizations seeks financing, its lender must evaluate the likely enforceability of each member's guarantee of its affiliates' obligations using concepts which are very different from conventional analysis used for for-profit corporations. This Article discusses applicable law and suggests several approaches to the problem for lenders, borrowers, and their counsel.
