The Constitutional Case Against Intracircuit Nonacquiescence, Dan T. Coenen May 1991

The Constitutional Case Against Intracircuit Nonacquiescence, Dan T. Coenen

Scholarly Works

A cornerstone of the United States Constitution is its separation of powers among the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of the national government. The Framers of the Constitution reasoned that separated powers would guard against tyranny by blocking the undue concentration of authority in any single governmental department. In crafting the Constitution, however, the Framers could not anticipate every dispute their scheme of separated powers might engender. One modern separation-of-powers conflict not specifically anticipated by the constitutional text involves so-called "intracircuit nonacquiescence.”

Intracircuit nonacquiescence occurs when executive-branch decision makers refuse to follow a circuit court's precedents even when acting subject …

Legal Rhetoric Under Stress: The Example Of Vichy, Richard H. Weisberg Apr 1991

Legal Rhetoric Under Stress: The Example Of Vichy, Richard H. Weisberg

Cardozo Law Review

The article examines the complicity of the Vichy legal system in the persecution of Jews during World War II, arguing that French lawyers and judges actively contributed to Nazi objectives through legalistic rhetoric and formalism. By focusing on individual cases and interpretive debates, the legal profession avoided addressing the moral and ethical implications of their actions, enabling the enforcement of oppressive policies. The analysis critiques the failure of legal professionalism and the dangers of prioritizing formalism over human rights.

It also reviews the procedures for submitting briefs developed by the American Psychology-Law Society which, in collaboration with the American Psychological Association, has submitted its first brief in Maryland v.
