The Visual Artists Rights Act's "Recognized Stature" Provision: A Case For Repeal, Drew Thornley
The Visual Artists Rights Act's "Recognized Stature" Provision: A Case For Repeal, Drew Thornley
Cleveland State Law Review
Using as a case study the recent “5Pointz” litigation, a case involving visual artists’ moral-rights claims to graffiti they drew on a piece of private property in Queens, New York, this article examines the threat that Visual Artists Rights Act (VARA)’s grant to visual artists of the right “to prevent any destruction of a work of recognized stature” poses to common-law property and contract rights. This article advances the argument that the default legal rule should be that the rights of property owners (real or personal), including the right to destroy such properties, trump any moral rights that visual artists …

Ohio Landlord-Tenant Reform Revisited, Edward G. Kramer, Marilyn Tobocman, Kenneth J. Kowalski, James Buchanan
Cleveland State Law Review
The "gentle readers" may be surprised by the analogy suggested between the reform of landlord-tenant law and the experience of Alice and the Queen.

Cleveland State Law Review
The majority of states other than Ohio have rejected the caveat emptor doctrine and adopted an implied warranty of habitability in the sale of new homes, but the irony of this situation is that it was an Ohio case, Vanderschrier v. Aaron, that first recognized implied warranties in the sale of a home. This Note will demonstrate that Ohio should adopt an implied warranty of habitability in the sale of new homes by builder-vendors.
Building Contractor's Liability After Completion And Acceptance, James Jay Brown
Building Contractor's Liability After Completion And Acceptance, James Jay Brown
Cleveland State Law Review
Schipper v. Levitt & Sons, Inc., held that a tract home-builder must defend his actions against the prima facie case established by an injured third party. The importance of this case lies in the application of a tort doctrine, previously applied exclusively to negligent acts by chattel manufacturers, to real property construction. This extension is shattering the ancient property concepts so much the bedrock of our Common Law. We will review that foundation and the old rules of non-liability as they concern the landowner, contractor, and third party, in order to grasp the significance of this new change in jurisprudential …
