Unequal Justice: The Federalization Of Criminal Law, Steven D. Clymer
Unequal Justice: The Federalization Of Criminal Law, Steven D. Clymer
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
From humble beginnings, federal substantive criminal law has grown to prohibit a wide range of conduct, including much that state criminal laws also proscribe. This expansion, commonly called federalization, has recently attracted substantial academic criticism. Some critics bemoan the federal government's intrusion into matters historically left to the states. Others denounce the burden on the federal judiciary of an increasing criminal caseload. However, there has been far less attention devoted to what may be the most troubling consequence of federalization: the dramatically disparate treatment of similarly situated offenders, depending on whether they are prosecuted in federal or state court. This …

Globalizing Sanctions Against Foreign Bribery: The Emergence Of A New International Legal Consensus, David A. Gantz
Globalizing Sanctions Against Foreign Bribery: The Emergence Of A New International Legal Consensus, David A. Gantz
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Part I of the article begins with a review of the rationale and key legal ele- ments of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Part II describes recent efforts by the United States to convince other governments and firms of the need for binding, enforceable and universally accepted rules against corrupt payments to foreign public officials. Parts III and IV survey the activities of various governmental organizations and major private sector groups that support international efforts to effectively discourage foreign bribery, re- spectively. The key sections, Parts V and VI, describe, analyze and critique the two major international conventions, the …

Why Has The Fcpa Prospered, Lee C. Buchheit, Ralph Reisner
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
The international reaction to the Helms-Burton Act has been fierce.7 But even while the Helms-Burton debate has been raging, an earlier iece of U.S. legislation, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA or Act), has garnered unexpected flattery from some of the same countries that have been so vigorous in denouncing the Helms-Burton Act. There are two pos- sible explanations for these different reactions.
The Worldwide Banning Of Schmiergeld: A Look At The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act On Its Twentieth Birthday, Stanley Sporkin
The Worldwide Banning Of Schmiergeld: A Look At The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act On Its Twentieth Birthday, Stanley Sporkin
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Many cynics viewed the United States' attempt to ban all forms of cor- porate bribery as another example of the federal government's taking on the role of Don Quixote and tilting at windmills. While the law may not have been taken seriously when it was first enacted, it is clear that it has assumed a prominent place among our federal criminal laws. According to a recent article in the Wall Street Journal, the FCPA remains "the world's toughest law against foreign bribes."9 This article will provide background as to how the law was conceived and will discuss the law's present …

Designing An Fcpa Compliance Program: Minimizing The Risks Of Improper Foreign Payments, Daniel L. Goelzer
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Every U.S. company, public or private, that conducts operations out- side of the United States should devote serious consideration to creating and implementing an Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA" or "Act") compli- ance program. In this context, an "FCPA compliance program" means a single, documented, corporate plan designed to reduce the likelihood that the company will engage in violations of the anti-bribery provisions of the FCPA, and to detect such violations and bring them to the attention of sen- ior management, if they occur.' A well-designed compliance program has obvious importance in educating employees concerning their responsibili- ties in this …

Defending Sec And Doj Fcpa Investigations And Conducting Related Corporate Internal Investigations: The Triton Energy/Indonesia Sec Consent Decree Settlements, Arthur F. Mathews
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
This article will summarize the foreign bribery/corrupt foreign pay- ments provisions of the FCPA, briefly survey the related books and records and internal accounting controls provisions, analyze available defenses to civil and criminal FCPA charges, and explore sensitive substantive and strategic issues that arise in the defense of SEC and DOJ/grand jury investi- gations and in the conduct of related corporate internal investigations. This article will also analyze the recent SEC consent decree settlements in the Triton Energy/Indonesia case, and explore the types of defenses that might be pursued if an FCPA foreign payments case like Triton were litigated rather …

The Use Of Social Science And Medicine In Sex Offender Commitment, Eric S. Janus
The Use Of Social Science And Medicine In Sex Offender Commitment, Eric S. Janus
Faculty Scholarship
Sex offender commitment statutes are a controversial and recurring response to the threat of sexual violence. These statutes, claiming exemption from the strict constitutional limitations of the criminal law, use civil-commitment-like procedures to detain sex offenders in secure "treatment centers." Litigation testing these statutes has sought to locate the border between legitimate exercise of the state's mental health power, and illegitimate preventative detention. This article examines the central roles that medicine and behavioral science play in the operation of sex offender commitment statutes and the litigation testing their constitutional validity. The thesis of this article is that the presence of …
Toward A Conceptual Framework For Assessing Police Power Commitment Legislation, Eric S. Janus
Toward A Conceptual Framework For Assessing Police Power Commitment Legislation, Eric S. Janus
Faculty Scholarship
Recent litigation and scholarship have begun to focus on the substantive limits of the state's power to use civil commitment as a social control tool. Courts and commentators describe civil commitment as grounded on two powers of the state: the parens patriae interest and the police power. This Article seeks an analytical framework for defining the boundaries of police power commitments in which justification rests on the interests of the public rather than on the interests of the committed individual.

Florida's Community Notification Of Sex Offenders On The Internet: The Disregard Of Constitutional Protections For Sex Offenders, Andrea L. Fischer
Florida's Community Notification Of Sex Offenders On The Internet: The Disregard Of Constitutional Protections For Sex Offenders, Andrea L. Fischer
Cleveland State Law Review
One of the toughest challenges for the courts is determining how to balance society's need for protection against an individual's constitutional rights. This Note provides an analysis of the controversy concerning community notification of sex offenders who victimize children, with the discussion directed to the constitutionality of community notification over the Internet, and suggests other possible ways to help prevent repeat sex offenses against children. Part II begins by focusing on which members of our communities are sex offenders that victimize children and looks at the reasons why they choose children as their victims. In Part III, this Note traces …
The Police, Pretextual Investigatory Activity, And The Fourth Amendment: What Hath Whren Wrought, Mark M. Dobson
The Police, Pretextual Investigatory Activity, And The Fourth Amendment: What Hath Whren Wrought, Mark M. Dobson
St. Thomas Law Review
Part II of this article briefly discusses the debate over what was considered pretextual activity in the time before Whren. Part III then analyzes both the facts and resolution of the pretext issue presented in Whren itself. Part IV explores what Wiren means for the future, both in terms of how this decision, when coupled with existing Fourth Amendment precedent enlarges what the police can do; and how two other Fourth Amendment cases which have recently been handed down, may even further expand what the police can do.

Who Executes The Executioner? Impeachment, Indictment And Other Alternatives To Assassination, Jay S. Bybee
Scholarly Works
This article addresses whether the Constitution protects a sitting President from indictment. The text of the Constitution is not clear on this question as it might be, but it is clear enough. No court has ever addressed the question of the President’s amenability to criminal charges, although the courts have considered the related question of whether federal judges can be subjected to criminal charges. Those courts have answered that judges and other officials are subject to criminal prosecution while in office. Congress has implicitly approved this conclusion in its passage of the Ethics in Government Act with its provision for …
