Set-Offs Against Back Pay Awards Under The Federal Age Discrimination In Employment Act, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

This Note proposes a theory to govern set-offs against ADEA damage awards that best effectuates congressional ~tent. It suggests that courts should set off those types of benefits received after a violation that, had they been lost because of a violation, would have been included in the damage award. Part I identifies the proper measure of damages under the ADEA as the net loss of 'job-related benefits," doubled in cases of willful violation. It explains first that job-related benefits should be broadly defined to include unemployment compensation and social security benefits as well as wages, and second that the congressional …

Faculty Publications

(Excerpt)

Since 1975 when the former Department of Health, Education and Welfare (hereinafter referred to as HEW) initially promulgated regulations pursuant to Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (hereinafter referred to as Title IX), four Courts of Appeals and numerous District Courts have declared invalid the Title IX regulations governing the employment practices and policies of educational institutions. In an attempt to avoid administrative chaos resulting from enforcement inconsistencies, the Justice Department petitioned the Supreme Court to review the decisions of the First, Sixth and Eighth Circuits. This petition was denied on November 26, 1979, thereby letting the …

42 U.S.C. § 1982-The United States Supreme Court has held that the official closing of a public street, resulting in a benefit for the white residents of that street and an inconvenience disparately impacting black residents of a neighboring community, is neither a badge of slavery prohibited by the thirteenth amendment nor an impairment of property interests protected by 42 U.S.C. § 1982.

The Haitian Boat People: An Overview Of The Present Situation Concerning Their Illegal Immigration To Florida, Peter Gordon Lalime

MA TESOL Collection

Beginning about 1972, many of the impoverished people of the Carribean nation of Haiti have fled their country for Florida. Because they come in sea vessels - invariably of questionable quality for an open sea voyage - a name which has been attached to them is that of "boat people". The Haitian boat people leave their homeland for reasons both economic and political in nature. Both their departure from Haiti and their arrival in the United States are illegal events. Once they reach Florida, therefore immigration authorities attempt to deport them, viewing the Haitians as "economic refugees" not entitled to …

Congress, The Courts, And Sex-Based Employment Discrimination In Higher Education: A Tale Of Two Titles, Joel W. Friedman

Vanderbilt Law Review

This Article will examine the manner in which the federal courts have handled sex-based employment discrimination claims against colleges and universities. Specifically, the Article will suggest that most such judicial opinions have construed and applied the applicable federal laws in a manner inconsistent with Congress' articulated desire to promote equal employment opportunity in, and to remove the taint of sex-biased decisionmaking from, the academic profession. In light of this judicial misconstruction of the remedial statutes, the Article proposes a different framework for analyzing Title VII and Title IX claims that will more adequately promote Congress' twin objectives.

A Tale Of Two Amendments: The Reasons Congress Added Sex To Title Vii And Their Implication For The Issue Of Comparable Worth, Michael Evan Gold

Duquesne Law Review

The author of this article examines and dispels the frequently cited account that the provisions against sex discrimination in Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 were created as a Congressman's joke or as an attempt to defeat the bill. He analyzes the background of the Smith and Bennett amendments, focusing on the congressional debates as they appear in the Congressional Record. He concludes that the Members of Congress were serious about sex discrimination, and that this seriousness has important implications for the interpretation of Title VII.
