Pass In Review: Due Process And Judicial Scrutiny Of Classification Decisions Of The Selective Service System, Donald L. Doernberg Jan 1982

Pass In Review: Due Process And Judicial Scrutiny Of Classification Decisions Of The Selective Service System, Donald L. Doernberg

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

The Article suggests a better basis for retaining the requirement that the Selective Service System state reasons for its denial of a registrant's deferment request than the two reasons most often stated: facilitation of administrative decisions and of judicial review. The Selective Service System determines whether a person shall be required involuntarily to serve two years in the military, possibly at the risk of life and limb. Certainly those deprivations are as real and as severe as any to which the due process clause is addressed. The Article concludes that due process, not administrative or judicial convenience, should be held …

Politics And Jurisprudence In West Germany: State Financing Of Political Parties, Donald P. Kommers Jan 1971

Politics And Jurisprudence In West Germany: State Financing Of Political Parties, Donald P. Kommers

Journal Articles

The relationship between political parties and representative government has been an important consideration in the constitutional jurisprudence of the Federal Republic of Germany.

The Federal Constitutional Court’s decision in 1966 to invalidate a federal plan for subsidizing political parties is a good example of the …
