High Federalism: Marijuana Legalization And The Limits Of Federal Power To Regulate States, David S. Schwartz
High Federalism: Marijuana Legalization And The Limits Of Federal Power To Regulate States, David S. Schwartz
Cardozo Law Review
The conflict between state marijuana legalization and the blanket federal marijuana prohibition of the Controlled Substances Act (CSA) has created a federalism crisis in which the duties of state officials to adhere to state or federal law are unclear. Current federalism doctrine cannot even tell us whether or not a local police officer who encounters a person in state-authorized possession of marijuana must arrest the person and seize the marijuana. The two most clearly applicable federalism doctrines - the Tenth Amendment anti-commmandeering doctrine and federal preemption of state law under the Supremacy Clause - offer only unsatisfactory answers. Anti-commandeering doctrine …
Conflicting Federal And State Medical Marijuana Policies: A Threat To Cooperative Federalism, Todd Grabarsky
Conflicting Federal And State Medical Marijuana Policies: A Threat To Cooperative Federalism, Todd Grabarsky
West Virginia Law Review
The legal status of medical marijuana in the United States is something of a paradox. On one hand, the federal government has placed a ban on the drug with no exceptions. On the other hand, forty percent of states have legal- ized its cultivation, distribution, and consumption for medical purposes. As such, medical marijuana activity is at the same time proscribed (by the federal government) and encouraged (by state governments through their systems of regulation and taxation). This Article seeks to shed light on this unprecedented, nebulous zone of legality in which an activity is both legal and illegal, what …

Pharmageddon: A Statutory Solution To Curb Ohio's Prescription Abuse Problem, Ed Woodworth
Pharmageddon: A Statutory Solution To Curb Ohio's Prescription Abuse Problem, Ed Woodworth
Journal of Law and Health
Prescription abuse in Ohio continues to be a serious and complex issue that should be addressed. Accordingly, Part II of this Note examines the background of prescription drug abuse generally. It identifies the dangers of prescription drug abuse, the cost drug abuse places on society, some reasons for prescription drug abuse, sources of prescription drugs, and discusses the current state and federal laws regarding prescription drug abuse and prescription reporting. Part III discusses the positive and negative aspects of H.B. 93 and Medical Rule 4731-11-11 and then offers proposals to more effectively prevent prescription drug abuse. Part IV discusses various …

Lastly, Part V will provide suggestions for the federal government and state governments to reduce investment risk that exists in the cannabis industry.
Every High Has A Low: A Pragmatic Approach To The War On Drugs, Mark Garibyan
Every High Has A Low: A Pragmatic Approach To The War On Drugs, Mark Garibyan
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform Caveat
One of the lasting vestiges of Richard Nixon’s presidency is the infamous “War on Drugs,” a forty-year-old effort aimed at curtailing “illicit drug consumption and transactions in America.” Although the goal behind the policy—a reduction in the rate of substance abuse—may be altruistic, the War on Drugs has dismally failed to achieve its goals and has exacerbated existing problems. Specifically, laws dealing with crack cocaine result in a “heavily disproportionate impact on black defendants;” in 2008 “blacks comprised 79.8 percent of those convicted for crack cocaine-related offenses,” whereas “whites comprised only 10.4 percent.” More generally, these laws illustrate a fundamental …
Breaking Free From Insanity: A White-Collar Crime Approach To Drug War Policy, Brian Harrison
Breaking Free From Insanity: A White-Collar Crime Approach To Drug War Policy, Brian Harrison
University of the District of Columbia Law Review
Preventing crime should be a top priority for law enforcement. A victim of crime would readily agree that never having been a victim at all is preferable to suffering at the hands of a criminal. Even if the criminal is later caught and punished, a victim remains a victim. Despite this simple truth, current drug policy does not place a top priority preventing the laundering of drug-tainted money. As a result, the United States remains a victim in the War on Drugs.' As will be discussed, the crime of money laundering can be prevented in many instances by prosecuting banks …
International Drug Trafficking: A Global Problem With A Domestic Solution, Matthew S. Jenner
International Drug Trafficking: A Global Problem With A Domestic Solution, Matthew S. Jenner
Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies
Forty years ago, the world declared war on drugs. Today, after decades of failing to adequately control drug consumption, an even graver problem has emerged: violent drug traffickers have taken the industry hostage and will stop at nothing to preserve their power. Governments have instituted dozens of programs to dismantle the illicit drug industry, but they have seen only marginal success. One strategy, however, has yet to be fully tested: universal legalization. Universal legalization of all drugs would attack the illicit drug market head-on, destroying the profit incentive for drug traffickers and placing control of the industry in the hands …
The International Control Of Illegal Drugs And The U.N. Treaty Regime: Preventing Or Causing Human Rights Violations?, Daniel Heilmann
The International Control Of Illegal Drugs And The U.N. Treaty Regime: Preventing Or Causing Human Rights Violations?, Daniel Heilmann
Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law
The international drug control regime, established to preserve human health and welfare, faces criticism for prioritizing criminalization and punishment over education, harm reduction, and human rights. The regime's prohibition-oriented approach, while comprehensive, is challenged by modern human rights standards and the evolving illegal drug market. The article examines whether the regime remains effective and aligned with contemporary human rights principles, emphasizing the need to balance control measures with human rights protections.
Memory And Punishment, O. Carter Snead
Memory And Punishment, O. Carter Snead
Journal Articles
This article is the first scholarly exploration of the implications of neurobiological memory modification for criminal law. Its point of entry is the fertile context of criminal punishment, in which memory plays a crucial role. Specifically, this article will argue that there is a deep relationship between memory and the foundational principles justifying how punishment should be distributed, including retributive justice, deterrence, incapacitation, rehabilitation, moral education, and restorative justice. For all such theoretical justifications, the questions of who and how much to punish are inextricably intertwined with how a crime is remembered - by the offender, by the sentencing authority, …
Liberty Lost: The Moral Case For Marijuana Law Reform, Eric Blumenson, Eva Nilsen
Liberty Lost: The Moral Case For Marijuana Law Reform, Eric Blumenson, Eva Nilsen
Indiana Law Journal
Marijuana policy analyses typically focus on the relative costs and benefits of present policy and its feasible alternatives. This Essay addresses a prior, threshold issue: whether marijuana criminal laws abridge fundamental individual rights, and if so, whether there are grounds that justify doing so. Over 700, 000 people are arrested annually for simple marijuana possession, a small but significant proportion of the 100 million Americans who have committed the same crime. In this Essay, we present a civil libertarian case for repealing marijuana possession laws. We put forward two arguments corresponding to the two distinct liberty concerns implicated by laws …
State Taxation Of Marijuana Distribution And Other Federal Crimes, Robert A. Mikos
State Taxation Of Marijuana Distribution And Other Federal Crimes, Robert A. Mikos
Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications
The financial crisis has breathed new life into proposals to reform marijuana law. Commentators suggest that legalizing and taxing marijuana could generate substantial revenues for beleaguered state governments-as much as $1.4 billion for California alone. This Article, however, suggests that commentators have grossly underestimated the difficulty of collecting a tax on a drug that remains illegal under federal law. The federal ban on marijuana will impair state tax collections for two reasons. First, by giving marijuana distributors powerful incentives to stay small and operate underground, the federal ban will make it difficult for states to monitor marijuana distribution and, consequently, …
On The Limits Of Supremacy: Medical Marijuana And The States' Overlooked Power To Legalize Federal Crime, Robert A. Mikos
On The Limits Of Supremacy: Medical Marijuana And The States' Overlooked Power To Legalize Federal Crime, Robert A. Mikos
Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications
Using the conflict over medical marijuana as a timely case study, this Article explores the overlooked and underappreciated power of states to legalize conduct Congress bans. Though Congress has banned marijuana outright, and though that ban has survived constitutional scrutiny, state laws legalizing medical use of marijuana constitute the de facto governing law in thirteen states. This Article argues that these state laws and (most) related regulations have not been, and, more interestingly, cannot be preempted by Congress, given constraints imposed on Congress's preemption power by the anti-commandeering rule, properly understood. Just as importantly, these state laws matter, in a …
Making Sense Of Drug Regulation: A Theory Of Law For Drug Control Policy , Kimani Paul-Emile
Making Sense Of Drug Regulation: A Theory Of Law For Drug Control Policy , Kimani Paul-Emile
Faculty Scholarship
This article advances a new theory of drug regulation that addresses two previously unexamined questions: how law-makers are able to regulate drugs differently irrespective of the dangers the drugs may pose and independent of their health effects, and the process followed to achieve this phenomenon. For example, although tobacco products are the leading cause of preventable death in the U.S. they can be bought and sold legally by adults, while marijuana, a substantially safer drug, is subject to the highest level of drug control. This article posits a conceptual model for making sense of this dissonance and applies this model …

One Stop, No Stop, Two Stop, Terry Stop: Reasonable Suspicion And Pseudoephedrine Purchases By Suspected Methamphetamine Manufacturers, Andrew C. Goetz
Michigan Law Review
This Note attempts to inject some clarity into courts' reasonable suspicion calculus for cold medicine purchases. It argues that the key factor in analyzing such purchases is whether the purchaser or purchasers appear to be circumventing pseudoephedrine purchasing restrictions in order to obtain inordinately large quantities of pseudoephedrine. Part I provides a general background on the domestic manufacture of methamphetamine in small, clandestine laboratories. Part II then examines the interplay between outward innocence and reasonable suspicion under the Supreme Court's Fourth Amendment jurisprudence. Finally, Part III establishes a framework for identifying purchasing strategies that methamphetamine manufacturers commonly use to circumvent …
Forced Medication And The Need To Protect The Rights Of The Mentally Ill Criminal Defendant, Emily C. Lieberman
Forced Medication And The Need To Protect The Rights Of The Mentally Ill Criminal Defendant, Emily C. Lieberman
Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal
The note argues that the current legal framework for forcibly medicating mentally ill criminal defendants, particularly pre-trial detainees, often violates their constitutional rights. It contends that the reliance on "dangerousness" as a criterion for forced medication is too vague and easily abused, leading to inconsistent and unconstitutional applications. The analysis advocates for stricter standards, clearer definitions of dangerousness, and heightened judicial scrutiny to protect the rights of mentally ill defendants.

Note: Poison In Our Own Backyards: What Minnesota Legislators Are Doing To Warn Property Purchasers Of The Dangers Of Former Clandestine Methamphetamine Labs, Signe Land Levine
William Mitchell Law Review
The article begins with an overview of the problems of meth abuse and manufacture in Minnesota, as well as the toxins that are left behind after physical evidence of meth labs has been removed. A discussion of current statutory seller disclosure provisions in Minnesota and in other states then follows. The article next analyzes proposed Minnesota legislation that has attempted to address the problem. A survey follows of six statutory models that provide guidance for drafting legislation to encompass disclosure, buyers’ remedies, filing forms in county land records, and requiring state-wide standards for proper cleanup. Finally, a comprehensive workable solution …

Disciplining Globalization: International Law, Illegal Trade, And The Case Of Narcotics, Chantal Thomas
Disciplining Globalization: International Law, Illegal Trade, And The Case Of Narcotics, Chantal Thomas
Michigan Journal of International Law
This Article is the first in a series of studies of the globalization of illicit markets. My theses are as follows: First, the increase in international trade in illicit products and services parallels the growth in international trade more generally that accompanies the phenomenon of globalization. Second, at the same time that most international trade law has moved toward a posture of liberalization, there has been a movement to strengthen the prohibition and punishment of trade in illicit transactions. Third, the mechanisms that have developed to regulate this prohibition constitute a significant development in the international legal order.
