A Virtual Reality: Preserving The Right To Appear "In Person" Before An Administrative Separation Board, Jeffrey Janaro, Christopher Clifton

Richmond Public Interest Law Review

Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, courts and government agencies utilized

video teleconference (“VTC”) technology to conduct trials and hearings in

limited settings. However, as the pandemic progressed, a number of these

adjudicative bodies began to rely more heavily on VTC, and at least one military

service sanctioned the use of VTC to conduct administrative separation

proceedings. The administrative separation process is routinely used as an

employment action to separate military members from an armed service. Due

to its speed and efficiency, military commanders often elect to use the administrative

separation process over the more rigorous court-martial procedure

Overview Of Bicameral Legislatures’ Potential Impact On The Executive Selection Process, Kyle Kopchak

Indiana Journal of Constitutional Design

Bicameral legislature is a common constitutional design model, with bicameral legislatures making up roughly 41 percent of all legislatures worldwide. As of April 2014, 79 bicameral and 113 unicameral systems were recorded in the database of the Inter-Parliamentary Union. In general, “bicameralism is more common in federal, large, and presidential states, while unicameralism is more common in unitary, small, parliamentary ones”. Bicameral systems operate two legislative chambers, both of which play a role in drafting and passing national legislation.

Taxonomy Of Ministerial Appointment Processes, Michelle Johnston

Indiana Journal of Constitutional Design

In parliamentary governments, executive power rests in an executive body of ministers commonly referred to as “the cabinet” or “the government.” Cabinet ministers, including the prime minister, are tasked with researching, drafting, and proposing laws and policies to their legislative counterparts in parliament. Because cabinets are generally comprised at least partially of select members of parliament, parliamentary systems are characterized by the interactions and interdependence of the legislative and executive branches. Whereas presidential systems lean into separation of powers to restrict governmental power, parliamentary systems rely on integration of the branches to ensure that political powers remain in check. Executive …

Enforcing Interstate Compacts In Federal Systems, Michael Osborn

Indiana Journal of Constitutional Design

The central goal of a federal system is for local government units to retain degrees of independence, specifically over matters of importance to that local unit. A logical corollary to that independence is the ability for local units to negotiate and contract with other local units on matters of importance. Therefore, it is not surprising that almost every federal system allows, either implicitly or explicitly, member states to form binding compacts with other states, the union government, or municipalities.1 Some federal democracies even allow member states to compact with foreign governments. Furthermore, almost every federal constitution includes a provision outlining …

Symposium: Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity, & The Constitution: Suspect Classifications, Immutability, And Moral Responsibility, Michael Gentithes

ConLawNOW

This essay argues that when LGBTQ advocates raise equal protection arguments, they should resist the temptation to make immutability claims. Instead, they should acknowledge greater flexibility in the continuum of sexual orientation and gender identity, thereby avoiding traditional and binary immutability theory, and emphasize the lack of moral responsibility as a ground for strict scrutiny. Such arguments offer more traction for future cases rather than repeated efforts to suggest that sexuality is biologically determined or unalterable. This approach shifts the legal focus to the moral responsibility logic that lies behind traditional immutability theory, which may ultimately be more persuasive to …

Commentary: The Workplace Vaccine Decision And Its Implications For Federal Regulatory Power, John M. Greabe

Law Faculty Scholarship

[Excerpt] "In a recent commentary, I contrasted the pragmatic consequentialism of retiring Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer – and, more generally, the other two members of the court’s liberal bloc (Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan) – with the structural formalism of the court’s six-justice conservative supermajority. I also suggested that this framework may provide a more useful way to understand many of the court’s recent and upcoming blockbuster decisions than the partisan angle that court watchers so frequently use."
