You’Ve Got To Have (Good) Faith: Good Faith’S Trajectory In Anglo-Canadian Contract Law Post-Wastech And The Potential For A Duty To Renegotiate, Vanessa Di Feo
You’Ve Got To Have (Good) Faith: Good Faith’S Trajectory In Anglo-Canadian Contract Law Post-Wastech And The Potential For A Duty To Renegotiate, Vanessa Di Feo
Dalhousie Law Journal
This paper argues that the organizing principle of good faith should be judicially developed to include a duty to renegotiate in situations of hardship. It looks to the French Civil Code and the UNIDROIT Principles for guidance, in addition to Canadian law’s receptibility to an incrementally expanded principle of good faith. Although the Supreme Court of Canada rejected hardship in the 2018 case of Churchill Falls (Labrador) Corp v Hydro-Québec, it did not forever close the door to this doctrine in Québec in situations of true financial peril. Given the “judicial dialogue” between Québec civil law obligations and Anglo-Canadian …

Law In, Law Out: Legalistic Filter Bubbles And The Algorithmic Prevention Of Nonconsensual Pornography, Daniel Maggen
Law In, Law Out: Legalistic Filter Bubbles And The Algorithmic Prevention Of Nonconsensual Pornography, Daniel Maggen
Cardozo Law Review
In 2019, Facebook announced that it had begun using machine-learning algorithms to preemptively screen uploads for nonconsensual pornography. Although the use of screening algorithms has become commonplace, this seemingly minor move from reactive to preemptive legal analysis–based prevention—this Article argues—is part of a groundbreaking shift in the meaning and effect of algorithmic screening, with potentially far-reaching implications for legal discourse and development.
To flush out the meaning of this shift, the Article draws on the filter bubble theory. Thus far, the phenomenon of filter bubbles has been synonymous with personalized filtering and the social polarization and radicalization it is prone …
Inconsistency Crisis And Reformative Proposals Of Investor-State Arbitration System- Umbrella Clauses Considered, Abdallah Elsayed
Inconsistency Crisis And Reformative Proposals Of Investor-State Arbitration System- Umbrella Clauses Considered, Abdallah Elsayed
Theses and Dissertations
The main purpose of investment treaties is to provide guarantees and protections for the investors in order to maintain the flow of foreign direct investment. As a consequence, when disputed, an adjudicator confronts a dilemma of figuring out the actual intention that the parties consented to. As for umbrella clauses are concerned, an interpreter falls into a loop to attain whether the parties consented to prioritize investor’s interest and elevate any contractual breach to the level of a treaty breach, or to consider the state’s regulatory power. The root could be traced to the interpretation process itself. Human conduct differs …

Balancing Efficiency And The Public Interest: A Comparative Analysis Of Force Majeure Defaults In Government Contracting, Alexandra L. Noetzel
Balancing Efficiency And The Public Interest: A Comparative Analysis Of Force Majeure Defaults In Government Contracting, Alexandra L. Noetzel
Brooklyn Law Review
Exemplified by the COVID-19 pandemic, contractual force majeure provisions can serve to protect contracting parties but can also place the risk of nonperformance on parties if the specific elements of the provision cannot be met. The current federal regulations governing government procurement in the United States lack the proper blend of uniformity and flexibility necessary to promote efficient contracting and risk assessment for both federal contractors and government agencies. Specifically, the current force majeure-like provision within the Federal Acquisition Regulation—the excusable delay provision—struggles to perfect this balance and puts government contractors in an unstable position of risk and decreased bargaining. …

Incomplete International Investment Law -- Applying The Incomplete Contract Theory, Tae Jung Park
Incomplete International Investment Law -- Applying The Incomplete Contract Theory, Tae Jung Park
University of Cincinnati Law Review
There is a puzzle in the field of international investment law: many negotiating countries fail to complete their International Investment Agreements (“IIA”) and postpone the renegotiations for completion as well. The literature on IIAs has neglected to consider the existence, causes, and solutions of this phenomenon. This study employs the incomplete contract theory to explain the causes and solutions surrounding this phenomenon.
The Implementation Of An Authenticity Clause In Social Media Influencers' Contracts, Sarah Tonos
The Implementation Of An Authenticity Clause In Social Media Influencers' Contracts, Sarah Tonos
Honors Theses
In the age of social media influencers turning social media platforms into jobs– monetizing pictures of their cats, dancing for dollars, or even making a mockery of themselves for fame and money, the question of whom to trust or distrust has become increasingly important among consumers. As more brands are starting to collaborate with influencers, it is essential to acknowledge the current relationship among all parties involved, including the Federal Trade Commission. There is currently a blurred line among trust, distrust, authenticity, and reliability during sponsorships. The common question among consumers is whether social media influencers believe in the brand …

Technologically Improving Textualism, Jeffrey W. Stempel, Erik S. Knutsen
Technologically Improving Textualism, Jeffrey W. Stempel, Erik S. Knutsen
Nevada Law Journal Forum
The textualist approach to construing statutes, regulations, contracts, and other documents remains dominant but has drawbacks, most significantly its tendency to disregard probative evidence of textual meaning in favor of isolated judicial impressions and dictionary definitions. Although a broader, contextual, “integrative” approach to interpretation is preferable, the hegemony of textualism, even extreme textualism, is unlikely to recede soon. Textualism can be substantially improved, however, through effective use of a form of big data—the corpus linguistics approach to discerning word meaning. By enlarging the universe of sources about how words are actually used, corpus linguistics represents a significant improvement over imperial …
The Meaning And Malleableness Of Liberty From 1897-1945, Quentin E. Smith
The Meaning And Malleableness Of Liberty From 1897-1945, Quentin E. Smith
The Purdue Historian
This paper covers how the substance and meaning of liberty changed during the ending years of the Gilded Age (1870-1900) through the beginning ages of the Civil Rights Movement (1954-1968). Economic liberty took shape in the cases Allegeyer v. Louisiana (1897) and Lochner v. New York (1905). Civil liberties would take several more years to come into the Supreme Court’s jurisdiction. The case Gitlow v. New York (1925) began the establishment of incorporation of the Bill of Rights to the states, otherwise known as our fundamental liberties (note: The Supreme Court used selective incorporation, however). In the case U.S. v. …
The Impending Collision Of Smart Contracts And The Automatic Stay, Carter D. Wietecha
The Impending Collision Of Smart Contracts And The Automatic Stay, Carter D. Wietecha
Notre Dame Law Review
This Note begins by briefly examining the nature and function of smart contracts, including how they have changed over time. Next, it evaluates the relevant language of Code provisions dealing with the automatic stay and discusses decisions treating the interaction of early generation smart contracts with the automatic stay. It concludes with a discussion of how the Supreme Court’s recent decision in City of Chicago v. Fulton has significantly changed the legal landscape for smart contracts and how the automatic stay will likely interact with smart contracts in the near future.
Contract's Covert Meddlers, Sarah Winsberg
Contract's Covert Meddlers, Sarah Winsberg
Notre Dame Law Review
Scholars of contract law typically examine contracts as bargains between two parties. This approach elides an additional, key function of many contracts: to shape existing relationships to the satisfaction of a third party, often one more economically powerful than either of the two bargainers. Third-party litigants, especially creditors, have historically advocated for their own interests and interpretive paradigms so strongly that they have sometimes gained priority over the actual intentions of the two bargainers.
This Article recovers the story of how a group of frequent-flier third parties—mainly creditors of small businesses—shifted the rules of contracts between partners in early America. …
Consumer Law As An Axis Of Economic Inequality, Daniel Markovits, Barak D. Richman, Rory Van Loo
Consumer Law As An Axis Of Economic Inequality, Daniel Markovits, Barak D. Richman, Rory Van Loo
Faculty Scholarship
In the standard paradigm of consumer law, a voluntary transaction is supposed to be welfare enhancing for each of the parties involved. We challenge this foundational presumption and ask to what extent many common consumer contracts are in fact extractive despite resulting from voluntary exchanges. With inequality growing throughout the world, to a degree that threatens the stability of both the economies and governments of even the wealthiest nations, we ask this fundamental question in an effort to identify root causes of inequality and to mark some guideposts for the articles that follow. Taken together, our speculations suggest that the …
Catching Up To A New Normal: The Effects Of Shifting Industry Standards On Contract Interpretation, Karen Chen
Catching Up To A New Normal: The Effects Of Shifting Industry Standards On Contract Interpretation, Karen Chen
Fordham Law Review
During the COVID-19 pandemic, industries around the world were forced to adapt to a new way of life dictated by rising public health concerns. The pandemic’s rapid spread left parties struggling to determine whether contractual performance would be excused or reinterpreted. Issues of prevailing industry standards arose and brought into question the point at which parties and courts should define these standards. While some parties argued that industry standards at the time of contract formation are determinative of performance, others claimed that their agreement referenced industry standards that had changed and that, therefore, their performance obligations had changed as well. …

Langdell And The Foundation Of Classical Contract Law, Daniel P. O’Gorman
Langdell And The Foundation Of Classical Contract Law, Daniel P. O’Gorman
Cleveland State Law Review
In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, scholars seeking to bring order to the common law developed what has since become known as classical contract law. Its leading architects were Christopher Columbus Langdell, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., and Samuel Williston, and their efforts involved seeking to provide an objective foundation for contract law. Any idea, however, that these three worked in coordination to create classical contract law would be mistaken. Holmes is considered a relentless critic of Langdell, and even Williston distanced himself from Langdell. This Article identifies in what ways Holmes and Williston differed from Langdell in their …
