Rethinking Child Advocacy After Roper V. Simmons: "Kids Are Just Different" And "Kids Are Like Adults" Advocacy Strategies, Elisa Poncz
Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal
The article examines the tension between two competing arguments in juvenile law: "kids are just different" and "kids are like adults." It critiques the binary approach often used in child advocacy and proposes a more nuanced, patchwork strategy that combines both perspectives to better serve the diverse needs of juveniles. The analysis focuses on key legal contexts, including the death penalty, life without parole, and minors' rights in medical decision-making, education, and internet access. The author argues that a balanced approach is essential to address the complexities of juvenile rights and responsibilities.
The Politicization Of The Designation Of Foreign Terrorist Organizations: The Effect On The Separation Of Powers, Julie B. Shapiro
The Politicization Of The Designation Of Foreign Terrorist Organizations: The Effect On The Separation Of Powers, Julie B. Shapiro
Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal
The article critiques the U.S. process for designating foreign terrorist organizations (FTOs) under the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996 (AEDPA) and subsequent amendments, arguing that the concentration of power in the Executive Branch undermines the separation of powers and risks politicization. The process, while intended to deter terrorism, often lacks transparency, adequate oversight, and judicial scrutiny, leading to potential misuse and unintended consequences, such as radicalizing targeted groups. The author advocates for reforms to restore constitutional principles and ensure the process remains effective and legitimate.
Let My People Go: Human Capital Investment And Community Capacity Building Via Meta/Regulation In A Deliberative Democracy-A Modest Contribution For Criminal Law And Restorative Justice, Bruce P. Archibald
Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law
The article explores the integration of restorative justice within Canada's criminal justice system, emphasizing its potential to enhance human capital development and community capacity through deliberative democratic processes. It argues that restorative justice offers a more effective and responsive approach compared to traditional punitive measures, which often fail to address the root causes of crime and may even exacerbate recidivism. By examining the Nova Scotia Restorative Justice Program as a model, the analysis highlights the benefits of combining restorative practices with formal criminal justice systems, advocating for a shift towards more inclusive and rehabilitative approaches to crime.
Prosecuting Sexual Violence In Correctional Settings: Examining Prosecutors’ Perceptions, Brenda V. Smith, Jaime Yarussi
Prosecuting Sexual Violence In Correctional Settings: Examining Prosecutors’ Perceptions, Brenda V. Smith, Jaime Yarussi
Project on Addressing Prison Rape - Articles
The Prison Rape Elimination Act of 2003 (PREA) is the first piece of federal legislation that expressly and exclusively addresses sexual abuse of persons in custody. Notwithstanding passage of the Act, there is a clear belief, echoed by correctional leaders, that prosecutors are reluctant at best, and unwilling at worst, to prosecute cases of sexual violence in correctional settings. In order to gather information on the prosecutor interest in and capacity to prosecute these cases, the National Institute of Corrections Project on Addressing Prison Rape at the Washington College of Law (the NIC/WCL Project) collected data from state and federal …

Myspace In A Post-Grokster World: Digital Finger Pointing For Offenses Perpetrated Through Use Of Social Networking Sites After Mgm V. Grokster, Cheryl J. Eisner
Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal
The note examines the dismissal of a negligence lawsuit against MySpace, arguing that interactive computer services should not be held liable for offline harms committed by users. It emphasizes the importance of protecting such platforms under the Communications Decency Act (CDA) and highlights the need to balance free speech and technological development against concerns for user safety.

Vigilant Or Vigilante? Procedure And Rationale For Immunity In Defense Of Habitation And Defense Of Property Under The Official Code Of Georgia Annotated §§ 16-3-23, -24, -24.1, And -24.2, Robert Christian Rutledge
Vigilant Or Vigilante? Procedure And Rationale For Immunity In Defense Of Habitation And Defense Of Property Under The Official Code Of Georgia Annotated §§ 16-3-23, -24, -24.1, And -24.2, Robert Christian Rutledge
Mercer Law Review
Georgia law provides statutory immunity for a person charged with an assault that arose in defense of property including habitation and real property. Such a defense would apply to the scenario above. The procedure for utilizing those immunities, however, is not clear in the applicable statutes, Official Code of Georgia Annotated ("O.C.G.A.") sections 16-3-23, -24, -24.1, and -24.2 (the "Immunity Statutes"), or in recent cases applying those statutes. This Article proposes a procedure for using those immunities as efficiently as possible. While seeking an efficient procedure, this Article also attempts to ascertain the rationale and policies behind the Immunity Statutes. …

Presidential Authority And The War On Terror, Joseph W. Dellapenna
Presidential Authority And The War On Terror, Joseph W. Dellapenna
Working Paper Series
Immediately after the attacks on the United States of September 11, 2001, President George W. Bush claimed, among other powers, the power to launch preemptive wars on his own authority; the power to disregard the laws of war pertaining to occupied lands; the power to define the status and treatment of persons detained as “enemy combatants” in the war on terror; and the power to authorize the National Security Agency to undertake electronic surveillance in violation of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. With the exception of the power to launch a preemptive war on his own authority (for which he …
Finding A Happy And Ethical Medium Between A Prosecutor Who Believes The Defendant Didn't Do It And The Boss Who Says That He Did, Melanie D. Wilson
Finding A Happy And Ethical Medium Between A Prosecutor Who Believes The Defendant Didn't Do It And The Boss Who Says That He Did, Melanie D. Wilson
Scholarly Articles
The increasing prevalence of DNA testing has proven that, at times, our criminal justice system renders wrongful convictions. Extrapolating from such significant errors, we can infer that smaller mistakes also occur. Because criminal prosecution is not an exact science, like DNA evidence, prosecutors can disagree about aspects of a case-whether to reward a cooperating defendant with a sentence reduction, whether to indict a defendant under a mandatory minimum statute, and even whether a defendant is guilty of a crime. This Essay examines the tension that arises when the prosecutor handling a case disagrees with her boss about one or more …
The Return Of Reasonableness: Saving The Fourth Amendment From The Supreme Court, Melanie D. Wilson
The Return Of Reasonableness: Saving The Fourth Amendment From The Supreme Court, Melanie D. Wilson
Scholarly Articles
Although there is no recipe for defining Fourth Amendment reasonableness, the Supreme Court produces its most anomalous Fourth Amendment outcomes when it decides "mixed" questions of reasonableness, assessing issues that turn on how ordinary, prudent citizens think and behave. The Court treats these mixed issues, combinations of fact and law, as if they raise purely legal questions. But mixed issues are more complex and require someone to determine historical facts, apply those facts to principles of Fourth Amendment law, and consider the totality of the circumstances, including taking into account community and cultural influences. The Supreme Court will take its …

Prosecutors "Doing Justice" Through Osmosis—Reminders To Encourage A Culture Of Cooperation, Melanie D. Wilson
Prosecutors "Doing Justice" Through Osmosis—Reminders To Encourage A Culture Of Cooperation, Melanie D. Wilson
Scholarly Articles
Cooperating defendants have proven to be necessary and valuable tools in preventing crime and prosecuting criminals. Federal prosecutors must exercise vigilance to thoughtfully decide how best to pursue the information cooperating defendants can provide. Such informed and good-faith judgment calls will inevitably require every prosecutor to weigh "the relative value or importance of different rights and interests and decide what, if any, action to take in response to a given tip. The DOJ and the ninety-three U.S. Attorneys can foster good decision-making by developing a culture of "doing justice" in which every prosecutor is encouraged.
