International Criminal Courts And The Making Of Public International Law: New Roles For International Organizations And Individuals, Kenneth S. Gallant

Law Faculty Scholarship

Judicial decisions of the International Criminal Court and other international criminal tribunals now serve as instances of practice and statements of opinio juris for the formation of customary international criminal law and customary international human rights law related to criminal law and procedure.

Certifying Questions To The Arkansas Supreme Court: A Practical Means For Federal Courts In Clarifying Arkansas State Law, Coby W. Logan Oct 2007

Certifying Questions To The Arkansas Supreme Court: A Practical Means For Federal Courts In Clarifying Arkansas State Law, Coby W. Logan

University of Arkansas at Little Rock Law Review

The purpose of this article is to raise awareness of the authority of federal courts to certify questions to the Arkansas Supreme Court and of some of the undeveloped legal issues surrounding the rule itself. The certification process, allowed under Arkansas Supreme Court Rule 6-8, is neither simple nor inexpensive, but it will most likely be less complicated and expensive than other alternatives available to a federal court and litigants involved in federal court litigation when a question of unclear Arkansas state law presents itself.
