From False Paternalism To False Equality: Judicial Assaults On Feminist Community, Illinois 1869-1895, Frances Olsen
From False Paternalism To False Equality: Judicial Assaults On Feminist Community, Illinois 1869-1895, Frances Olsen
Michigan Law Review
This essay will examine the "equal treatment" versus "special treatment" for women issue as it arose in Illinois in the late nineteenth century. In 1869 the Illinois Supreme Court barred Myra Bradwell from the practice of law on the basis that she was a married woman, and in 1870 it reaffirmed its exclusion of women in In re Bradwell, the state decision the United States Supreme Court upheld in Bradwell v. Illinois. This denial of equal treatment to women, especially the concurring opinion by United States Supreme Court Justice Bradley, appears to many to represent paternalism at its …

William Monroe Trotter Institute Publications
If I sound a little bit incoherent it is because I have only been in California for ten hours in the last three weeks, and that was just to change clothes and change bags and hug my little six-year-old tight and spend some time with my wife. I got back in last Tuesday night from a trip to the East Coast by way of Salt Lake City and got up at 2:00 a.m. to be at a local television show to be able to be on the "CBS Morning News." My options were slim-either go to New York and do …
Seniority And Affirmative Action: The Shadow Of Stotts, Drew S. Days Iii
Seniority And Affirmative Action: The Shadow Of Stotts, Drew S. Days Iii
William Monroe Trotter Institute Publications
The purpose of this paper is to discuss why I think the Reagan administration's avowed commitment to helping only "actual victims" of racial discrimination retards rather than advances the cause of civil rights. I make reference in my title to "seniority" and "the shadow of Stotts" because the current administration is relying upon Supreme Court decisions having to do with seniority, particularly its 1984 opinion in Memphis Firefighters v. Stotts, to justify a wholesale attack upon race-conscious remedies, not only in employment but in education and public contracting as well.

Civil Rights Attorney's Fees: Hensley's Path To Confusion, Tim K. Garrett
Civil Rights Attorney's Fees: Hensley's Path To Confusion, Tim K. Garrett
Vanderbilt Law Review
Congress enacted the Civil Rights Attorney's Fees Act (Fees Act)" to promote more vigorous enforcement of the civil rights laws by attracting competent legal counsel to represent civil rights plaintiffs. To achieve this goal the Fees Act allows courts to award attorney's fees to prevailing plaintiffs in civil rights cases.' The statute, however, entails an inherent tension: the Fees Act's primary aim of compensating prevailing plaintiffs' attorneys "'for all time reasonably expended on a matter' ,, conflicts with the desire to prevent windfalls to attorneys. This conflict is especially keen when a civil rights plaintiff only partially prevails," because the …

Quality-Of-Life Ethics And Constitutional Jurisprudence: The Demise Of Natural Rights And Equal Protection For The Disabled And Incompetent, Robert A. Destro
Scholarly Articles
Part I of this article will attempt to identify some of the basic legal issues in the debate over the rights of the disabled and aged to minimal health care and nourishment. Part II will argue that the practice of defining the rights of the person functionally, rather than as a matter of principle, is an old one which had largely been eliminated after the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment, but that it is now resurgent in some quarters as a means to an end which would be impossible were the definition to be based on an explicit principle of …
What Disabilities Are Protected Under The Rehabilitation Act Of 1973?, David Larson
What Disabilities Are Protected Under The Rehabilitation Act Of 1973?, David Larson
Faculty Scholarship
It can be difficult for an employer or a recipient of federal funds to determine exactly what types of disabilities are protected by the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. Relevant literature has not given a great deal of attention to this specific question. Recent cases, however, provide additional information that can assist in determining which disabilities are protected. The question of what is protected handicap differs from the question of whether a handicapped person is also “qualified.” This article focuses on the threshold question of determining whether a handicap actually exists, concentrating on the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. The definition of …

Alternative Families: Obtaining Traditional Family Benefits Through Litigation, Legislation And Collective Bargaining, Barbara Cox
Faculty Scholarship
This article will first discuss the constitutional and equitable basis for extending rights to alternative families. Next, it will discuss each major protection and benefit granted to traditional families and then examine the litigation, legislation, and collective bargaining agreements obtaining or attempting to obtain the same benefit for alternative families. This article will end by arguing that equity and justice require an extension of these benefits to alternative families.

The “Program Or Activity” Rule In Anti-Discrimination Law: A Comment On S.272, H.R.700, And S.431, John H. Garvey
Scholarly Articles
In 1984 the Supreme Court determined in Grove City College v. Bell that the antidiscrimination provisions of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 were program-specific rather than institution-wide in application. In response, several legislative proposals designed to mitigate or reverse the Grove City decision have been introduced in Congress. These proposals include the Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1985 (H.R. 700 and S. 431) and the Civil Rights Amendments Act of 1985 (S. 272). In this Article, Professor Garvey argues that institution-wide application of Title IX and similar antidiscrimination statutes would in many instances lead to results inconsistent …
