The Pressure Points Of Professional Identity For Judges In The Modern Era, Charles G. Geyh May 2025

The Pressure Points Of Professional Identity For Judges In The Modern Era, Charles G. Geyh

Articles by Maurer Faculty

The duties core to the professional identity of a judge are encapsulated in an ethical directive at the literal forefront of the Model Code of Judicial Conduct, some variation of which all state and federal judiciaries have adopted. Rule 1.2 provides that “[a] judge shall act at all times in a manner that promotes public confidence in the independence, integrity, and impartiality of the judiciary[.]” This directive implicates three challenges, or pressure points, relevant to a judge’s identity: 1) insofar as judges begin their legal careers as practicing lawyers, when they ascend the bench their professional identities must transition from …

Countries As Laboratories: Reflections On Sierra Leone’S Amended Anti-Human Trafficking Law, Andrea Dennis

Consumer (Mis)Understanding Of Dietary Supplement Labels, Jason Iuliano, Madison Kilbride May 2025

Consumer (Mis)Understanding Of Dietary Supplement Labels, Jason Iuliano, Madison Kilbride

Texas A&M Law Review

“Helps lower cholesterol levels” and “helps promote healthy cholesterol levels.” Both of these claims are found on pharmacy products. And to ordinary consumers, the message is the same: take this pill and improve your cholesterol. Nevertheless, Congress has placed these statements in two very different regulatory categories. The former is classified as a disease claim, and the latter as a structure/function claim. Whereas products making disease claims require years of clinical trials and analyses before regulatory approval can be granted, products making structure/function claims do not even require governmental review before they can be sold to consumers. This bifurcated regulatory …


Culpable Kids, Cara H. Drinan May 2025

Culpable Kids, Cara H. Drinan

Texas A&M Law Review

When a child commits a crime, how do states determine if that child is culpable? There are procedural rules that determine the forum for a minor’s trial and doctrines that limit children’s exposure to the most severe sentencing. But when it comes to culpability, states employ the same substantive law whether the defendant is 50 or 15. As this Article explains, that approach is profoundly flawed. In the early 21st century, in a series of cases known as the Miller trilogy, the United States Supreme Court established that youth are fundamentally different from adults and state sentencing practices must recognize …


The Servicemembers Civil Relief Act Should Be Updated To Recognize Remote Courtroom Appearances, Hon. William G. Montgomery, Hon. Gerald A. Williams May 2025

The Servicemembers Civil Relief Act Should Be Updated To Recognize Remote Courtroom Appearances, Hon. William G. Montgomery, Hon. Gerald A. Williams

Texas A&M Law Review

Allowing military members to continue pending civil litigation so that they can focus their attention on warfighting is sound public policy. Most agree we should protect those “who dropped their affairs to answer their country’s call,” and various federal laws have codified that protection for over a century. But what if the civil matter is com- paratively minor or could otherwise be easily resolved? While the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (“SCRA”) provides essential protections against harassing civil litigation, it should still pro- vide for the ability of deployed personnel to remotely resolve matters. Virtually every military member can easily be …


The Nih-Moderna Public-Private Partnership: A New Contractual Model For Securing Innovation, Karen Sandrik May 2025

The Nih-Moderna Public-Private Partnership: A New Contractual Model For Securing Innovation, Karen Sandrik

Texas A&M Law Review

The public–private partnership between the National Institutes of Health (“NIH”) and Moderna was considered “one of the few bright spots of the pandemic.” Yet as the NIH–Moderna collaboration progressed at an unprecedented pace, going from vaccine development to FDA authorization in nine months, cracks began to appear in the partnership. Public trust in vaccinations wavered, multiple patent disputes arose, and global frustration erupted over Moderna’s lack of commitment to equitable access to the vaccine that was largely paid for by U.S. taxpayers. This Article argues that the parties’ contractual agreements did shockingly little to support or, indeed, set up the …


Dialing In Or Dialing Out? The Relationship Between State Telemedicine Law And Access To Buprenorphine, Stacey A. Tovino May 2025

Dialing In Or Dialing Out? The Relationship Between State Telemedicine Law And Access To Buprenorphine, Stacey A. Tovino

Texas A&M Law Review

This Article begins by reporting the results of a comprehensive 50-state survey assessing state laws and other state sources governing the telemedicine induction (“tele-induction”) and subsequent telemedicine prescription (“tele-prescription”) of buprenorphine for the treatment of opioid use disorder (“OUD”) following the expiration of the COVID-19 public health emergency (“PHE”). Original, concrete findings include: (1) the glaring patchwork of state law governing the tele-induction and subsequent tele-prescription of buprenorphine for the treatment of OUD in the United States; (2) the variety of primary authorities and secondary sources that house relevant permissions, prohibitions, and affiliated requirements; (3) the number of primary authorities …


Reviving Exclusion, Leo Yu May 2025

Reviving Exclusion, Leo Yu

Texas A&M Law Review

Over a century ago, 15 states enacted alien land laws designed to deprive Japanese immigrants of property rights. It took half a century for these laws to be repealed. Today, alien land laws are experiencing a strong revival in America. Twelve states have enacted new versions targeting the Chinese community, with seventeen states preparing to follow suit. This Paper provides a comprehensive analysis of this revival, tracing its legal roots to early 20th-century Supreme Court cases that upheld the constitutionality of the old alien land laws. These cases, referred to as “zombie cases,” remain on the books despite being irreconcilable …


The National Bioengineered Foods Disclosure Standard & Absence Claims: The Cost Of The Butterfly, Cahlen Cheatham May 2025

The National Bioengineered Foods Disclosure Standard & Absence Claims: The Cost Of The Butterfly, Cahlen Cheatham

Texas A&M Law Review

The National Bioengineered Foods Disclosure Standard (“NBFDS”) is a step in the right direction in providing a uniform labeling standard for genetically engineered organisms (“GEOs”) that meet the statutory definition of “bioengineered.” Importantly, the law provides a consensus that GEOs are safe and that labeling standards should be uniform across the United States. However, the law largely fails to settle the broader debate and the issues associated with GEO labeling. Namely, the NBFDS’s use of the term “bioengineered” causes additional confusion, and terms like “genetic modification” and “genetic engineering” remain ambiguous. Furthermore, the Final Rule promulgated by the U.S. Department …


Corporate Governance Outside Wall Street, Gideon Parchomovsky, Asaf Eckstein May 2025

Corporate Governance Outside Wall Street, Gideon Parchomovsky, Asaf Eckstein

Texas A&M Law Review

Private companies far outnumber public ones but receive scant scholarly attention and little is known about their governance. The largest private companies are on par with public corporations in terms of their annual revenues, number of employees, and impact on the economy. At the same time, private companies are not subject to the reporting requirements that apply to public corporations. Furthermore, private companies are virtually free of all the other market forces that improve corporate governance. They need not comply with the governance norms that institutional investors impose on public corporations or worry about activist hedge funds intervening in their …

A Broken Glass And Its Pieces: The Psychological Impact On Children In Gaza, Qamar Bazar

Rather than just summarizing the research, the paper uses relevant sources to understand how distress shows up in children with mental health struggles such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), dissociative amnesia, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Questions like how they are related to …


Nourishing The Living Tree: Vincent Macdonald And His Constitutional Thought, Preston Jordan Lim May 2025

Nourishing The Living Tree: Vincent Macdonald And His Constitutional Thought, Preston Jordan Lim

Faculty Publications

Since the enactment of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, Canadian judges have increasingly approached the Constitution through a living constitutionalist lens, adapting the Constitution to contemporary realities and treating the text as but one interpretive modality alongside purpose and context. The Supreme Court has rooted this living constitutionalism in the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council’s judgment, Edwards v Attorney General of Canada, wherein Lord Sankey introduced the metaphor of the “living tree.” Justice Robert Sharpe and Professor Patricia McMahon have suggested that the “living tree metaphor remained a forgotten footnote until 1982.” Indeed, more formalist approaches towards …


Cross-Border Limitations And Exceptions To Copyright: “Powered By Ai”, Marketa Trimble May 2025

Cross-Border Limitations And Exceptions To Copyright: “Powered By Ai”, Marketa Trimble

Joint PIJIP/TLS Research Paper Series

Businesses and institutions that wish to utilize copyright-protected works in multiple countries face a multiplicity of national copyright laws; although national copyright laws have been harmonized in accordance with several international treaties, and harmonized even more in the European Union member states by European Union legislation, countries’ copyright laws continue to vary. The multiplicity of national copyright laws raises costs of transnational operations, including for businesses and institutions that rely on limitations and exceptions to copyright (“L&Es”) in multiple countries. For example, AI companies might want to rely on L&Es to train and deploy their AI in multiple countries, as …

Recreate's Amicus Submission To The Constitutional Court In South Africa, May 2025, Iain Currie, Emma Webber, Daniel Linde, Sibongiseni Qagana

Joint PIJIP/TLS Research Paper Series

The Copyright Amendment Bill in South Africa aims to reform the copyright regime to provide additional rights to creators and users of copyrighted material. The main provisions for creators are a royalty right and increased control over commissioned works. For users, a series of exceptions and limitations are to be introduced.These include fair use for purposes such as education, personal use and research, as well as exceptions for libraries, archives and people with disabilities. South African President Cyril Ramaphosa referred the legislation to the Constitutional Court, primarily over concerns that the new rights for creators and users would constitute an …


Forced Arbitration In The Fortune 500, David Horton May 2025

Forced Arbitration In The Fortune 500, David Horton

Minnesota Law Review Vols. 106:2 onward (2021-present)

As the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) nears its centennial, its most controversial byproduct—forced arbitration—has entered uncharted territory. For years, companies exploited their power over fine print to produce ambitious dispute resolution regimes. This trend reached its apex in the 2010s, when the Supreme Court held that arbitration is incompatible with class actions and gave its blessing to delegation provisions, which allow the arbitrator to decide whether a case must be arbitrated. But around 2020, the dynamic changed. Plaintiffs’ lawyers discovered a tactic called “mass arbitration” that gains settlement leverage by bombarding defendants with scores of individual claims. In addition, Congress …


Building Bridges: Queer Rights In And Out Of The Courts, Kaz Lane May 2025

Building Bridges: Queer Rights In And Out Of The Courts, Kaz Lane

Minnesota Law Review Vols. 106:2 onward (2021-present)

It is unclear whether the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment prohibits states from differentiating between people based solely on their sexual orientation and/or gender identity. This note_comment analyzes the Supreme Court’s tiers of scrutiny—rational basis review, intermediate scrutiny, and strict scrutiny—to argue that a new suspect class is warranted for sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI), triggering strict scrutiny for SOGI classifications. This analysis shows that a united SOGI class meets all of the characteristics associated with suspect classes, including a history of anti-LGBTQIA+ discrimination and the irrelevance between SOGI and one’s ability to contribute to society. This …
