Forensic Science Developments And Judicial Decision-Making In The Era Of Innocence: The Influence Of Legal Process Theory And Its Implications, Sarah Lucy Cooper May 2016

Forensic Science Developments And Judicial Decision-Making In The Era Of Innocence: The Influence Of Legal Process Theory And Its Implications, Sarah Lucy Cooper

Richmond Journal of Law and the Public Interest

This article confirms the existence of these legal process-centric themes and considers some potential implications of these approaches. Part I briefly sets out key tenets of the legal process vision and provides some back- ground to the American Innocence Movement. Using examples from relevant case law, Part II examines the courts’ approaches thematically, demonstrating how the courts exhibit loyalty to the legal process vision. It also considers the implications of this loyalty, including that it can result in both the extraction of science from its social context and an awkward approach towards discerning between credible and incredible forensic science evidence …

Opinion: Testimony Concerning The Separation Of Powers And The Judiciary, Lumen N. Mulligan May 2016

Opinion: Testimony Concerning The Separation Of Powers And The Judiciary, Lumen N. Mulligan

Faculty Works

Separation of powers and the judiciary - or judicial independence as it is often termed - "refers to the need for courts that are fair and impartial when reviewing cases and rendering decisions, ... [which] requires freedom from outside influence or political intimidation." As recognized by President Ronald Reagan, and scores upon scores of our nation's most preeminent leaders, "[the] independence of the courts from improper political influence is a sacred principle, .... It must always be guarded."

This cornerstone of our free society - judicial independence - has been the bedrock of Kansas' republican form of government since the …

The Changing Odds Of The Chancery Lottery, Marianna Wonder Apr 2016

The Changing Odds Of The Chancery Lottery, Marianna Wonder

Fordham Law Review

Delaware is home to the majority of shareholder class action litigations related to mergers and acquisitions (M&A). These cases usually result in settlements that provide shareholders with only disclosure in exchange for a broad release of future claims, which encompasses unknown and federal security claims. The Delaware Court of Chancery must review and approve these settlements under Delaware Rule 23(e), which has been interpreted as creating a fiduciary duty for the court to protect the interests of absent shareholders. Nevertheless, Delaware has a history of routinely approving disclosure-only settlements with laxity. Recently, members of the court have begun discussing the …

The Management Of Staff By Federal Court Of Appeals Judges, Mitu Gulati, Richard A. Posner Mar 2016

The Management Of Staff By Federal Court Of Appeals Judges, Mitu Gulati, Richard A. Posner

Vanderbilt Law Review

Federal court of appeals judges have staffs consisting usually of a secretary and four law clerks; some judges have externs as well (law students working part time without pay). These staffs are essential, given judicial workloads and judges'limitations. Yet not much is known about how the judges manage their staffs. Each judge knows, of course, but judges rarely exchange information about staff management. Nor is there, to our knowledge, a literature that attempts to compare and evaluate the varieties of staff management techniques employed by federal court of appeals judges. This Essay aims to fill that gap. It is based …
