Testing The Selection Effect: A New Theoretical Framework With Empirical Tests, Theodore Eisenberg Jun 1990

Testing The Selection Effect: A New Theoretical Framework With Empirical Tests, Theodore Eisenberg

Cornell Law Faculty Publications

Recent law and economics scholarship has produced much theoretical and empirical work on how and why legal disputes are settled and litigated. One of the most significant developments in this literature, attributable to the work of William Baxter and the combined efforts of George Priest and Benjamin Klein, has been the formation of a theory about both the selection of disputes for trial and the rates of success that plaintiffs enjoy for those cases that are resolved at trial. The basic theory contains two components. The selection effect refers to the proposition that the selection of tried cases is not …

An Un-Fortune-Ate Decision: The Aftermath Of The Supreme Court's Eradication Of The Relation-Back Doctrine, Lawrence A. Epter Apr 1990

An Un-Fortune-Ate Decision: The Aftermath Of The Supreme Court's Eradication Of The Relation-Back Doctrine, Lawrence A. Epter

Florida State University Law Review

In Schiavone v. Fortune, the United States Supreme Court held that the "period provided by law for commencing the action" language of the Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 15(c) includes the statutory limitation period, but not the time allowed for service of process. After demonstrating that this interpretation of Rule 15(c) is unreasonable, the author of this Article examines the various ways that federal courts have dealt with the decision. In light of the confusion and inequities which have resulted, the author suggests two ways of effecting a more just and sensible reading of Rule 15(c).

Crossing The Line Between Rough Remedial Justice And Prohibited Punishment: Civil Penalty Violates The Double Jeopardy Clause—United States V. Halper, 109 S. Ct. 1892 (1989), Lynn C. Hall Apr 1990

Crossing The Line Between Rough Remedial Justice And Prohibited Punishment: Civil Penalty Violates The Double Jeopardy Clause—United States V. Halper, 109 S. Ct. 1892 (1989), Lynn C. Hall

Washington Law Review

Historically, the constitutional guarantee against double jeopardy has been triggered primarily in criminal prosecutions. It has not encompassed civil monetary penalties. In United States v. Halper, the Supreme Court expanded double jeopardy protection. The Court held that government imposition of a civil monetary penalty on a defendant who has been criminally convicted for the same offense is punishment to the extent that the penalty clearly exceeds compensation. The punitive portion of the civil penalty, according to the Court, is multiple punishment prohibited by the Double Jeopardy Clause. This Note examines Halper and its effect on legislatures, prosecutors, and courts. The …

Juridical Chameleons In The "New Erie" Canal, Donald L. Doernberg Jan 1990

Juridical Chameleons In The "New Erie" Canal, Donald L. Doernberg

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

The New Erie doctrine, however, has become a doctrine of convenience, inconsistently applied by conservative and liberal Justices alike. It is the antithesis of a “neutral principle” of constitutional adjudication. To use Justice Jackson's term, the federal laws are not the “juridical chameleons”--the Justices are. Part II of this Article discusses the old and the New Erie doctrines as articulated by the United States Supreme Court. Part III demonstrates the difficulty of limiting the New Erie doctrine to the single area of implied rights of action and shows how the broad brush with which the doctrine's proponents paint necessarily touches …
