The 1991 Supreme Court Term: Review And Outlook, John O. Mcginnis Jan 1993

The 1991 Supreme Court Term: Review And Outlook, John O. Mcginnis

Articles

The 1991 Supreme Court Term was the first during which justices originally appointed by Presidents Ronald Reagan and George Bush-Sandra Day O'Connor, Antonin Scalia, Anthony Kennedy, David Souter, and Clarence Thomas-constituted a majority. The term's main surprise, however, was that this majority of five-indeed, a majority of six when Chief Justice William Rehnquist, elevated to that position by President Reagan precisely because of his judicial philosophy, is included-did not forge a consistent jurisprudential majority characterized by the strict interpretative approach favored by their sponsoring presidents. While, generally speaking, the Court's decisions certainly continued to represent a departure from the expansive …

A Curious Document Recently Discovered In The Archives, Peter Tillers Aug 1992

A Curious Document Recently Discovered In The Archives, Peter Tillers

Cardozo Law Review

The document reproduced below, which appears to be a letter written by Peter Pilgrim to "Lash, " was recently discovered in the archives of the library of the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law. Peter Pilgrim is the late Doctor of Facts at Cardozo. "Lash" is probably L.H. LaRue, Story Professor of Law at Washli University. Professor LaRue is also known as the Delphic Oracle of Lex, possibly because no one knows for sure what the letters "L.H." represent. The annotations to the text of the putative letter appear to be a mixture of notes by its author and comments …

Metro Broadcasting, Inc. V Fcc: Affirmative Action At The Crossroads Of Constitutional Liberty And Equality, Michel Rosenfeld Feb 1991

Metro Broadcasting, Inc. V Fcc: Affirmative Action At The Crossroads Of Constitutional Liberty And Equality, Michel Rosenfeld

Articles

The article examines the Supreme Court's inconsistent approach to affirmative action, particularly through the lens of *Metro Broadcasting, Inc. v. FCC*, which upheld the FCC's race-based policies to promote broadcast diversity. While the decision aligns with constitutional values of equality and free speech, the Court's opinions fail to coherently reconcile liberty and equality principles. The article argues for a more integrated framework to address the complexities of affirmative action jurisprudence and its intersection with First Amendment rights.

Decoding Richmond: Affirmative Action And The Elusive Meaning Of Constitutional Equality, Michel Rosenfeld Jun 1989

Decoding Richmond: Affirmative Action And The Elusive Meaning Of Constitutional Equality, Michel Rosenfeld

Articles

The article critiques the Supreme Court's inconsistent approach to affirmative action, particularly its adoption of the strict scrutiny test in *City of Richmond v. J.A. Croson Co.*, which has led to confusion and conflict in equal protection jurisprudence. The author argues that the strict scrutiny test is an inadequate framework for addressing affirmative action cases, advocating instead for a substantive equality approach centered on the principle of equality of opportunity. This approach would better address the complexities of systemic discrimination and its multifaceted effects, as highlighted by Justice Marshall's ecological mode of interpretation in *Croson*. The article ultimately challenges the …

Government Liability For Unconstitutional Land Use Regulation, Stewart E. Sterk Jan 1984

Government Liability For Unconstitutional Land Use Regulation, Stewart E. Sterk

Articles

The article examines whether the Constitution requires a damage remedy for unconstitutional land use ordinances and analyzes the policy implications of such a remedy. It argues that while awarding damages can compensate victims and influence behavior, the threat of liability may discourage useful government action. The author concludes that municipal damage liability for unconstitutional land use ordinances is generally unwise, except when the ordinance results from bad faith or deliberate obstruction of constitutional rights.
