The Normativity Of Possibilities And Ideals, Tvsi Blanchard Aug 2019

The Normativity Of Possibilities And Ideals, Tvsi Blanchard

Cardozo Law Review

To begin, Arthur, I want to say to you, that it's privilege for me to be a part of this event that honors you. We've known each other for a long time and I, as all of us here, have always recognized your intellectual capability and deep insight. But I also want to add here that you are at the same time a very kind, caring person. In many ways, you are the embodiment of what I would hold the most important Jewish value of Chesed, loving-kindness. For me it is an inspiration to know you.

Court Transparency And The First Amendment, David S. Ardia Feb 2017

Court Transparency And The First Amendment, David S. Ardia

Cardozo Law Review

"Publicity is the very soul of justice," legal philosopher Jeremy Bentham once warned.1 Regrettably, lady justice is at risk of losing her soul. In courts across the country, secrecy is increasingly the norm. Indeed, the extent of secrecy in American courts is astonishing, especially given the assumption by many that the First Amendment guarantees a right of public access to the courts. In reality, the United States Supreme Court has explicitly held only that there is a First Amendment right of public access to criminal trials and pre-trial proceedings. The Court has never addressed the question of whether there is …


The Plain Language Court, David A. Strauss Dec 2016

The Plain Language Court, David A. Strauss

Cardozo Law Review

The Roberts Court, under Chief Justice John Roberts, has demonstrated a strong and consistent commitment to the plain language approach in statutory interpretation. This approach emphasizes interpreting statutes based on their literal text, often without considering legislative history or broader statutory purposes. The Court's decision in Milner v. Department of the Navy exemplifies this trend, where the Court adhered to the plain language of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) despite significant policy concerns. This approach has become more unanimous among the justices, reflecting a shift from earlier Courts that were more divided on this method.

A Rejoinder, Jonathan R. Macey Mar 1995

A Rejoinder, Jonathan R. Macey

Cardozo Law Review

In a rare moment of self-restraint, I resolved not to bother to write a comment to David Ratner's spirited but unconvincing reply to my earlier article in the Cardozo Law Review. Since Ratner's response contained no defense whatsoever of the work of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), no criticism whatsoever of my general theory of agency obsolescence, and no theory of its own to defend the SEC, it seemed to me at first that the best course of action was to allow Ratner's reply to serve as its own refutation.


The Vestal And The Fasces: Property And The Feminine In Law And Psychoanalysis, Jeanne L. Schroeder Jan 1995

The Vestal And The Fasces: Property And The Feminine In Law And Psychoanalysis, Jeanne L. Schroeder

Cardozo Law Review

The fasces symbolized the majesty of Roman law. It was an axe attached to a bundle of sticks. Consuls, emperors, and other high-ranking officials were escorted in public by lictors bearing the fasces as the visible representation of the enforcement powers of the state. Offenders could be mercifully flogged with one of the sticks or justly executed with the blade.
