Privatizing Due Process, Paul R. Verkuil Oct 2005

Privatizing Due Process, Paul R. Verkuil

Articles

The article explores the concept of "private due process," arguing that while traditional due process protections under the Constitution require state action, privatization of government functions creates gaps in procedural safeguards. It examines how state laws, federal regulations, and alternative dispute resolution (ADR) mechanisms can fill these gaps and proposes a "Private Administrative Procedure Act" (PAPA) to ensure procedural fairness when government functions are delegated to private entities.

Hotels.Com V. Zuz Tourism Ltd., Asher Grunis, Mishael Cheshin, Edna Arbel

Translated Opinions

Facts: The applicant and the first respondent entered into an exclusive marketing agreement in February 2000. This agreement contained an arbitration clause stating that disputes between the parties would be resolved by arbitration which shall take place in Texas. In June 2002, the first respondent filed an action in Israel against the applicant and the second respondent, on the grounds that the second respondent was marketing the services of the applicant contrary to the agreement. The applicant filed a motion for a stay of proceedings on account of the arbitration clause in the agreement. The District Court denied the application, …

Investor Protection And Foreign Investment Under Nafta Chapter 11: Prospects For The Western Hemisphere Under Chapter 17 Of The Ftaa, Jacqueline Granados Apr 2005

Investor Protection And Foreign Investment Under Nafta Chapter 11: Prospects For The Western Hemisphere Under Chapter 17 Of The Ftaa, Jacqueline Granados

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article argues that adopting NAFTA-like investor protection provisions in the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) could significantly increase foreign direct investment (FDI) across the Americas, benefiting both investors and host countries. It emphasizes the importance of balancing investor rights with public interest considerations, such as environmental regulation, and highlights the need for clear definitions and procedural safeguards in the FTAA's investment chapter. The article also underscores the role of legal reforms and policy liberalization in Latin American and Caribbean countries (LAC) to maximize the agreement's potential benefits.

The Dispute Resolution Profession Should Not Celebrate The Vanishing Trial, Bruce E. Meyerson Jan 2005

The Dispute Resolution Profession Should Not Celebrate The Vanishing Trial, Bruce E. Meyerson

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

Many mediators and arbitrators are celebrating the vanishing trial and the increasing use ADR, viewing this as a vindication of ADR over litigation. I suggest that those of us of who make a living as neutrals should not take out the champagne; but rather, we should help improve the quality of our litigation system. Why?

The Vanishing Trial: Land Mine On The Mediation Landscape Or Opportunity For Evolution: Ruminations On The Future Of Mediation Practice, Kimberlee K. Kovach Jan 2005

The Vanishing Trial: Land Mine On The Mediation Landscape Or Opportunity For Evolution: Ruminations On The Future Of Mediation Practice, Kimberlee K. Kovach

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

Several decades ago, mediation developed as an alternative to the use of courts for resolving disputes. Over the years, the use of mediation to resolve lawsuits has greatly increased. The reasons for this evolution are numerous, and the primary underlying impetus for the use of mediation has, in many cases, impacted just how the process is conducted. For example, some view mediation as a process which provides individuals or groups engaged in a dispute or conflict with a collaborative and flexible process for dispute resolution. This view of the process also encourages party participation and empowerment, which often allows relationships …

Fitting The Forum To The Fuss With Sticky Defaults: Failure In The Market For Dispute Resolution Services?, Maurits Barendrecht, Berend R. De Vries Jan 2005

Fitting The Forum To The Fuss With Sticky Defaults: Failure In The Market For Dispute Resolution Services?, Maurits Barendrecht, Berend R. De Vries

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

"Fitting the forum to the fuss" - i.e., finding the optimal way to deal with every dispute - is an appealing slogan of proponents of alternative dispute resolution ("ADR"). The phrase also summarizes the contract one would expect rational disputants to make once they are embroiled in a conflict they cannot resolve together. Disputants can "buy" dispute resolution services, such as various forms of court intervention, mediation, or arbitration. Agreeing to a contract to buy such services together with an opponent, however, is likely to be difficult. These difficulties are assessed in this article. The barriers to dispute resolution are …

Mediation And Justice: What Standards Govern?, Joseph B. Stulberg Jan 2005

Mediation And Justice: What Standards Govern?, Joseph B. Stulberg

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

I find it challenging to write about mediation and justice for several perplexing reasons. The concept of justice is constitutionally ambiguous; trying to analyze it concretely is a challenging task for both writer and reader. Despite the concept's ambiguity, however, each of us can readily describe situations that instantly appall us for reasons that we intuitively identify as constituting acts or occasions of injustice. The irony then, and hence the challenge, is that we know that the concept of justice is an important phenomenon to address, yet we have difficulty saying something constructive or useful about it.

The Myth Of The Gladiator And Law Students' Negotiation Styles, Melissa L. Nelken Jan 2005

The Myth Of The Gladiator And Law Students' Negotiation Styles, Melissa L. Nelken

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

"Shark." "Hired gun." The popular view is that lawyers are, by and large, cut-throat competitors who take the ethical obligation of zealous advocacy on behalf of their clients to the extreme, heedless of the cost to others or to society as a whole. The adversarial system (with its winners and losers), law school teaching, and the portrayal of lawyers in popular media, all feed this stereotype. The focus on litigation promotes misperceptions about what most lawyers actually do. Lawyers make deals and resolve virtually all litigated matters short of trial, often through negotiation. Studies of lawyers' behavior in negotiation over …

Shifting The Focus From The Myth Of "The Vanishing Trial" To Complex Conflict Management Systems, Or I Learned Almost Everything I Need To Know About Conflict Resolution From Marc Galanter, John Lande Jan 2005

Shifting The Focus From The Myth Of "The Vanishing Trial" To Complex Conflict Management Systems, Or I Learned Almost Everything I Need To Know About Conflict Resolution From Marc Galanter, John Lande

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

To say that "The Vanishing Trial" is a myth is not to suggest that the facts or analysis in Professor Galanter's report are fictional or inaccurate. Indeed, he marshals a massive amount of data to show that the number of trials and the trial rates have been declining for the past four decades, particularly in the federal courts. The report documents an apparent paradox: the proportion of cases going to trial has dropped sharply during the past forty years despite substantial increases in many other legal indicators including the number of lawyers, the number of cases filed, and the amount …

The Concept Of Justice In Mediation: A Psychobiography, Ellen Waldman Jan 2005

The Concept Of Justice In Mediation: A Psychobiography, Ellen Waldman

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

Discussions of what justice means in mediation have a dialectical quality to them. At various points in the field's history, the notion that justice in mediation consists of fully maximized disputant self-determination holds sway. At other historical moments, a tentative consensus appears to recognize that justice in mediation requires normative content independent of the disputants' beliefs and values.

Is Alternative Dispute Resolution Really An Alternative For Federal Employees?: Possible Suggestions For Encouraging Federal Employees To Participate In Adr Programs, Lisa Pell Jan 2005

Is Alternative Dispute Resolution Really An Alternative For Federal Employees?: Possible Suggestions For Encouraging Federal Employees To Participate In Adr Programs, Lisa Pell

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

This Note will examine the various dispute resolution programs employed by the federal government. Part One of this Note will look at the different federal programs and determine their usefulness. Part Two will establish that ADR is not being used to its potential. Part Three will discuss the reasons for the low ADR usage. Part Four will suggest options for increasing ADR usage in federally implemented programs. Finally, Part Five will conclude that if the federal agencies took advantage of their own programs, the possibilities for change are great.

Mindfulness Meditation, The Cultivation Of Awareness, Mediator Neutrality, And The Possibility Of Justice, Evan M. Rock Jan 2005

Mindfulness Meditation, The Cultivation Of Awareness, Mediator Neutrality, And The Possibility Of Justice, Evan M. Rock

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

This Note argues that the cultivation of awareness through meditation enhances a mediator's ability to be neutral, thereby increasing the possibility of just outcomes from mediation sessions. Part I introduces and explains the basic practice of mindfulness meditation. Part II examines the necessity of neutrality for just outcomes in mediation, the classical view of neutrality as impartiality, and the importance of a mediator's awareness of his biases and preferences for maintaining neutrality. Part III examines the use of procedure in maintaining neutrality during a mediation session, and how a mediator's awareness of his thoughts and emotions can be helpful in …

A Case For Mediating Trademark Disputes In The Age Of Expanding Brands, David Allen Bernstein Jan 2005

A Case For Mediating Trademark Disputes In The Age Of Expanding Brands, David Allen Bernstein

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

This Note proposes that there is an alternative method that ensures the viability of brand names while avoiding litigation. Companies must be willing to enter a process which will explore the possibility of a mutually beneficial solution, perhaps in the form of a settlement agreement allowing both parties to use the mark or brand name. The process best suited to guide such parties and achieve such a result is mediation.

Part II will describe the expectations by the courts and legislature for the military. In addition, it will illustrate instances where the military, along with numerous federal agencies, overstepped its traditional, constitutional and legal bounds. Part III will offer the legislature's response to, and its subsequent regulation of, the military and other federal …

The New Iraq: Resolving Public And Private Obligations Incurred Under Saddam Hussein's Rule In The Context Of International Arbitration, Darius Adam Marzec Jan 2005

The New Iraq: Resolving Public And Private Obligations Incurred Under Saddam Hussein's Rule In The Context Of International Arbitration, Darius Adam Marzec

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

Saddam Hussein's rule in Iraq collapsed on April 9, 2003, after an American-led coalition invasion. The coalition quickly deposed the Iraqi dictator and began the process of turning the nation away from authoritarian rule, murder, and death, to civility. While Saddam Hussein is gone, and no government-supported oppression of people exists, another form of tyranny persists: Iraq's modern economy is burdened with $383 billion in public debt and judgments. Adding insult to injury, after the coalition troops drove up to Baghdad through the desert, Iraq's banking system turned out to be insolvent.

The Unguided Use Of Internal Adr Programs To Resolve Sexual Harassment Controversies In The Workplace, Jessica Oser Jan 2005

The Unguided Use Of Internal Adr Programs To Resolve Sexual Harassment Controversies In The Workplace, Jessica Oser

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

This Note will explore some of the concerns raised by the use of mandatory IDR mechanisms in the workplace, particularly in the context of resolving sexual harassment disputes. As previously noted, the use of IDR in the workplace can be highly effective and beneficial for both the employee and the employer. However, just as the Food and Drug Administration approves drugs that have potentially harmful side effects, the public and the U.S. government should approve of the use of IDR mechanisms despite the potential for abuse. In both circumstances, the public deserves to be warned about the possible dangers. This …

The Voice Of China: A Story Of Chinese-Character Domain Names, Hong Xue Oct 2004

The Voice Of China: A Story Of Chinese-Character Domain Names, Hong Xue

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article examines China's efforts to manage and regulate domain names, particularly Chinese character domain names, both domestically and internationally. It highlights the evolution of China's regulatory framework, from academic management to governmental oversight, and its active participation in international policymaking through organizations like ICANN. The core argument revolves around the technical, policy, and sovereignty challenges China faces in integrating its domain name system into the global Internet infrastructure while maintaining national control and promoting inclusivity.

The Origins Of Cctld Policymaking, Peter K. Yu Oct 2004

The Origins Of Cctld Policymaking, Peter K. Yu

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article explores the evolution of country-code top-level domain (ccTLD) policymaking, tracing its transition from an informal, ad hoc system managed by individuals like Jon Postel to a formalized, international governance structure under the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). It highlights the power struggles between various stakeholders, including national governments, ICANN, and the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA), and discusses the implications for global internet governance.

Whither The Udrp: Autonomous, Americanized, Or Cosmopolitan?, Laurence R. Helfer Oct 2004

Whither The Udrp: Autonomous, Americanized, Or Cosmopolitan?, Laurence R. Helfer

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article explores the future trajectory of the Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP), outlining three potential evolutionary pathways: an autonomous UDRP distinct from national laws, an Americanized UDRP aligned with U.S. legal frameworks, or a cosmopolitan UDRP influenced by diverse national laws. Each pathway has significant implications for the UDRP's role in resolving domain name disputes globally.

The Icann Experiment, Susan P. Crawford Oct 2004

The Icann Experiment, Susan P. Crawford

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article argues that the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) derives its legitimacy primarily through a consensus-based governance model, rather than democratic or Administrative Procedure Act (APA)-style frameworks. While ICANN’s consensus model is imperfect and faces challenges such as holdouts and centralized decision-making tendencies, it remains the most viable approach for ensuring accountability, transparency, and global acceptance in internet governance. The article emphasizes that ICANN’s legitimacy depends on demonstrated consensus, as seen in its history, particularly in the development of the Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP). It warns that shifting away from consensus toward centralized decision-making risks …

Theories Of Cyber-Sociology: Communicating Culture Through Codes, Erica Schlesinger Wass Oct 2004

Theories Of Cyber-Sociology: Communicating Culture Through Codes, Erica Schlesinger Wass

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article explores the cultural and social significance of country code top-level domains (ccTLDs), arguing that they extend beyond technical identifiers to reflect national identity, values, and priorities. By examining the history, structure, and policies of ccTLDs, the author illustrates how these domains serve as tools for communication, cultural expression, and social change, influenced by a nation's unique history and societal norms.
