The Crime Of Indecent Assault In Uae Law, Salem Ali Alkaabi

Thesis/ Dissertation Defenses

The crime of indecent assault is considered one of the serious offenses condemned by UAE law due to its violation of human dignity and ethical and social values. This research focuses on the evolution of legal texts related to this crime, particularly the changes introduced in Federal Decree-Law No. 31 of 2021 concerning crimes and punishments, compared to the UAE Penal Code of 1987. The research also addresses the amendments made to the rules governing this crime, such as raising the age of the victim from 14 to 18 years and abolishing the crime of indecent assault with consent in …

Bluebook Vs. Alwd, Joshua Levine

Library Staff Online Writings

During law school and afterwards, the one citation guide I relied on was The Bluebook. Its rules, explanations, and organization defined how I cited legal resources. Any limitations or gaps in The Bluebook caused me frustration and forced me to get creative, as I figured out solutions that seemed consistent with the rules.

Central Park Five Defamation Suit And Its Implications For Trump, Sarah Weiner

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights and Social Justice (ERSJ) Blog

Yusef Salaam, Raymond Santana, Kevin Richardson, Antron Brown, and Korey Wise–collectively known as the “Central Park Five” or the “Exonerated Five”–were between the ages of fourteen and sixteen when they were accused and tried for the rape and assault of Trisha Meili in Central Park in 1989.  While they were convicted and served considerable jail time, they maintained their innocence throughout, foregoing potential early release and parole. The Five were exonerated years later when another man, Matias Reyes, confessed and his DNA matched the profile of the true culprit.  Further, much of the police procedure and ensuing media circus surrounding …

How Solar Scammers Threaten The Green Energy Movement, Chase Cohen

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights and Social Justice (ERSJ) Blog

In response to rising energy costs[1] and escalating climate change anxiety, a growing number of Americans are ditching fossil fuels and seeking alternative, clean energy solutions to power their homes.  While this is a positive step towards achieving carbon neutrality, there are associated risks, as some see this newfound demand as an opportunity to manipulate vulnerable consumers.  As a result, bad actors within the clean energy industry exacerbate the problem of climate change by discouraging homeowners from embracing climate-friendly energy solutions due to fears of predatory lending, property damage, and exploitation.

A Jacksonian Theory Of Estoppel In Ip Litigation Against The United States, Leonard C. Brahin

Washington and Lee Law Review Online

As an intellectual property infringer, the federal government occupies a unique position as both the entity that approved the infringed patent or trademark and an entity capable of arguing for its invalidity. By arguing for invalidity, the federal government assumes that it should be exempt from the traditional rules of procedural estoppel. Indeed, the government believes that even though it granted intellectual property rights (after careful research and deliberation and following the express review of an officer appointed with the advice and consent of the Senate), it should have a second bite at the apple to invalidate a patent or …

Generative Artificial Intelligence And Copyright In The Film And Media Industry, Victor A. Oberting Iv

Washington and Lee Law Review Online

The development of generative artificial intelligence (“GAI” or “generative AI”) introduces compelling benefits and capabilities to filmmakers and artists, but also brings complications regarding copyright of creative works. The American film and media industry in particular illustrates the scope of GAI’s legal, economic, and ethical implications. Though GAI may exhibit characteristics of independent agency or intent, GAI models are best understood as a new set of tools that serve a diverse range of applications in the creative process. The potential benefits of this set of tools can only be realized, then, if the filmmakers who use them are not unreasonably …

Detangling Knots In The Narratives: A Response To Theunis Roux, Aparna Chandra

Articles

This article is part of a symposium on Theunis Roux's article titled 'Grand Narratives of Transition and the Quest for Democratic Constitutionalism in India and South Africa', which proposes two dominant narratives about the constitutional transitions in India and South Africa. The author focuses on Indian constitutional praxis to evaluate the claims of both. Part A engages with Roux’s version of the 'Liberal Progressive Narrative' and demonstrates what post-liberal accounts of the Indian constitutional transition offers that differs from the standard narrative as presented by Roux. Part B turns to the 'Culturalist Grand Narrative' and teases out the differences between …

Opening Brief For Plaintiff-Appellant, Roe V. Marshall University Board Of Governors, Ryan M. Donovan, J. Zak Ritchie, Madeline H. Meth, Gregory Bowe, Erin Hunter, Sarah Monahan

Faculty Scholarship

Issues Presented:

Title IX prohibits schools from responding with deliberate indifference to student-on-student sexual harassment that interferes with, or threatens to interfere with, a victim’s education. It also prohibits schools from retaliating against students who engage in Title IX protected activity, such as reporting an assault. Here, another Marshall student sexually assaulted Roe at an offcampus residence near Marshall’s campus. Roe reported the assault and other instances of student-on-student relationship abuse. In the assault’s aftermath, Roe missed classes and limited her time on campus because she was afraid of encountering her assailant. Her grades suffered. Marshall did not address the …

"Legally Magic" Words: An Empirical Study Of The Accessibility Of Fifth Amendment Rights, Roseanna Sommers, Kate Weisburd

Law & Economics Working Papers

Fifth Amendment case law (including Miranda v. Arizona) requires that individuals assert their right to counsel or silence using "explicit," "clear," and "unambiguous" statements - or, as some dissenting judges have lamented, using "legally magic" words. Through a survey of 1,718 members of the U.S. public, we investigate what ordinary people believe it takes to assert the right to counsel and the right to silence. We then compare their perceptions against prevailing legal standards governing invocation.

With respect to the right to counsel, the survey results indicate that members of the public have a uniformly lower threshold for invocation than …

South Korea’S Financial Supervisory Service Mediating Disputes Over Hong Kong-Tied Equity-Linked Security Losses, Michele Kallo

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution (CJCR) Blog

Since January 8, 2024, South Korea’s financial regulator, Financial Supervisory Service (FSS), has investigated major Korean banks for selling high-risk equity-linked securities (ELS) products linked to Hong Kong’s Hang Seng China Enterprises Index (HSCEI), which resulted in substantial financial losses among South Korean investors. An ELS is a derivative product that promises returns if the underlying asset—in this case, the HSCEI—stays above a specified “knock-in” level until it matures. Due to the severe decline in the HSCEI, many ELS products have seen drastic devaluations, leading to significant losses for investors, including those who are risk averse. Investors aged 65 and …
