Section 1983 And Federalism, Richard Briffault

Faculty Scholarship

The relationship between the themes of federalism and individual rights is one that runs deep in American intellectual and social history. And it is one that has changed drastically with changes in the conditions and temperament of our society.

In the early days of the Republic, federalism was viewed as. a means of protecting individual rights from the tyranny of a unified central government. The Civil War brought with it a rejection of this guiding principle. State autonomy came to be seen not as a means to protect the individual from government abuse but rather as the primary source of …

Constitutional Law--Civil Rights--Georgia's Bar Exam Does Not Unconstitutionally Discriminate On The Basis Of Race, Richard B. Badgley

Mercer Law Review

In Tyler v. Vickery the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals held that the Georgia bar examination does not discriminate against blacks in violation of the equal protection clause of the fourteenth amendment and that traditional constitutional tests, rather than EEOC guidelines promulgated under title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, are the appropriate standards by which the constitutionality of the examination must be judged. The court further held that the failure to provide for a review of a failing grade does not violate the due process clause of the fourteenth amendment because those who fail the bar exam …

Constitutional Law-Civil Rights-Standard For Relief In Racial Discrimination Cases Requires A Showing Of Discriminatory Intent, T. Keith Fogg

University of Richmond Law Review

When Congress passed Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, it did not extend the coverage of the Act to public employers. Consequently, the Griggs v. Duke Power Co. decision in 1971 created the anomalous situation that private employers were held to a tougher standard of scrutiny with respect to racial considerations in their hiring procedures under Title VII than were public employers under the Constitution. This curious development in the relationship between public employment and Title VII caused many courts to alter their standards for equal protection violations in the early 1970's. In the realm of public …

Constitutional Law- Civil Rights- Private Schools Prohibited From Excluding Qualified Children Solely Because They Are Black, Craig S. Cooley

University of Richmond Law Review

All major school desegregation decisions through 1975 involved "public" schools, and were based on provisions of the fourteenth amendment. This constitutional remedy, however, requires the presence of "state action" before being triggered. Commencing with the Supreme Court's earliest public school desegregation decisions, and accelerating with the finding of affirmative duties of southern school districts to desegregate, private educational institutions following racially exclusionary admittance policies were founded. Such private discrimination generally has been considered to be beyond the scope of the fourteenth amendment. Moreover, parents that patronize such institutions have sought support in Supreme Court cases which confer constitutional protection upon …
