Zombie Cinderella And The Undead Public Domain, Rebecca Schoff Curtin
Zombie Cinderella And The Undead Public Domain, Rebecca Schoff Curtin
Tennessee Law Review
This Article takes a recent case from the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board as the basis for an argument that trademark doctrine needs stronger protection against the exclusive commercial appropriation of characters that are in the public domain. In that case, a new doll company sought to register the mark "Zombie Cinderella" for dolls. The examining attorney initially refused registration because "Zombie Cinderella" dolls were found to be confusingly similar to "Walt Disney's Cinderella" dolls. This ruling would have implied that Disney had the exclusive right to market dolls using the "Cinderella" name, a name that carries with it the …

The Rules Of Maternity, Dara E. Purvis
The Rules Of Maternity, Dara E. Purvis
Tennessee Law Review
A diverse body of laws and regulations speaking to reproductive rights, healthcare, criminal punishment of drug use, termination of parental rights, and more creates the rules of maternity. These rules are guidance provided both obliquely and explicitly by the law's coercive power telling women both how to and who should mother. Rule 1 begins in pregnancy, with the message that "your body is your child's vessel." During pregnancy, women are counselled that doctor knows best. After the child's birth, the mother remains responsible for the people who enter a child's life, leading to rule 3: "mothers must always protect." Rule …
Substantive And Procedural Silence, Erin Sheley
Substantive And Procedural Silence, Erin Sheley
Tennessee Law Review
Empirical work shows that perceptions of the procedural fairness of the criminal justice system turns on whether it gives individuals and communities a "voice," or a forum in which to tell their stories. If the system imposes unwanted silence on a party its legitimacy in the eyes of the public decreases. Despite the extensive literature on the many specific applications of silence in the justice system, no attempt has yet been made to break down the relationship between the victim's silence and the defendant's across the disparate doctrines of criminal law, or the importance of these interconnections to the expressive …

Trump And Chinese Exclusion: Contemporary Parallels With Legislative Debates Over The Chinese Exclusion Act Of 1882, Stuart Chinn
Trump And Chinese Exclusion: Contemporary Parallels With Legislative Debates Over The Chinese Exclusion Act Of 1882, Stuart Chinn
Tennessee Law Review
Donald Trump's presidential victory in November has prompted much public commentary about American political dynamics and about the future of American democracy. Given these inquiries, this paper is timely in aiming to reexamine, through a comparative historical lens, one of the most prominent parts of Trump's campaign and one of the biggest points of concern among his critics: Trump's campaign rhetoric on immigration. Trump's own flirtation with racist themes is easy to identify in some of his most notable campaign comments regarding Mexican immigrants and Muslim immigrants. And given that these comments were also directed at immigrant constituencies, equally clear …

A Model Of First Amendment Decision-Making At A Divided Court, Kyle Langvardt
A Model Of First Amendment Decision-Making At A Divided Court, Kyle Langvardt
Tennessee Law Review
On First Amendment issues, today's Supreme Court is arguably the most protective in the institution's history. But the apparent libertarian consensus masks a surprisingly deep disagreement about methodology. The Court's Republican Justices prefer an austere, formal approach in which logical conclusions are pursued to the furthest reach. The Court's Democratic Justices, on the other hand, would follow a more complex, contextual approach in which rules and standards are often custom-tailored to narrow factual domains.
This Article models that divide. I demonstrate that the Court's First Amendment case law over the past three decades has conformed to a small set of …

Protecting Regulatory Expressions Of Food Populism Through Interstate Cooperation, Kathryn Bowen
Protecting Regulatory Expressions Of Food Populism Through Interstate Cooperation, Kathryn Bowen
Tennessee Law Review
Consumers and retailers are increasingly interested in purchasing local, sustainable, and humanely raised foods. Advocacy groups are spearheading that trend. Their efforts have gained traction at the state-level, with a broad-based, food conscious constituency directly fomenting policy change. And yet, adversely affected food producers typically succeed in nullifying state reforms by securing from Congress preemptive national standards.
That dynamic is likely to manifest again in the area of farmed animal treatment. In November 2016, Massachusetts approved the furthest reaching prohibition on the use of "intensive confinement" systems for farmed animals, and the sale of any food products thereby derived. Additional …
A Principled And Legal Approach To Title Ix Reporting, Merle H. Weiner
A Principled And Legal Approach To Title Ix Reporting, Merle H. Weiner
Tennessee Law Review
Institutions of higher education identify "responsible employees" to further their compliance with Title IX. Responsible employees typically report instances of campus gender-based violence to the institution, usually to the Title IX coordinator. Unfortunately, most colleges and universities make virtually every employee a responsible employee. This "wide-net" approach to reporting, sometimes referred to as universal mandatory reporting, produces two categories of related unintended consequences: (1) it weakens the autonomy of victims when they need their autonomy most, thereby undermining their sense of institutional support and aggravating their psychological and physical harm from the assault; and (2) because of these negative consequences, …

#Worstplaintiffever: Popular Public Shaming And Pseudonymous Plaintiffs, Jayne S. Ressler
#Worstplaintiffever: Popular Public Shaming And Pseudonymous Plaintiffs, Jayne S. Ressler
Tennessee Law Review
Being publicly shamed is, for some, a fate worse than death. This article addresses a tension at the heart of the practice of "popular public shaming" as a social regulatory mechanism. While shaming can be an effective and inexpensive tool to reflect and impart current collective values, it also can deter victims of wrongs from vindicating their rights in court, thereby inhibiting the pursuit of justice. Some legislatures and courts, including the United States Supreme Court, have sought to address this problem by permitting certain rightsholders to bring lawsuits pseudonymously. However, as this article shows, the standards and procedures in …

The Persistence Of The Confederate Narrative, Peggy Cooper Davis, Aderson Francois, Colin Starger
The Persistence Of The Confederate Narrative, Peggy Cooper Davis, Aderson Francois, Colin Starger
Tennessee Law Review
Ever since the United States was reconstituted after the Civil War, a Confederate narrative of states' rights has undermined the Reconstruction Amendments' design for the protection of civil rights. The Confederate narrative's diminishment of civil rights has been regularly challenged, but it stubbornly persists. Today the narrative survives in imprecise and unquestioning odes to state sovereignty.
We analyze the relationship, over time, between assertions of civil rights and calls for the protection of local autonomy and control. This analysis reveals a troubling sequence. the Confederate narrative was shamefully intertwined with the defense of American chattel slavery. It survived profound challenges …
