A Call For Reform Of Recent Immigration Legislation, Jason H. Ehrenberg Oct 1998

A Call For Reform Of Recent Immigration Legislation, Jason H. Ehrenberg

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

The Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996 and the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 dramatically limit the procedural rights of aliens who have been convicted of serious crimes. Consequently, aliens who have immigrated to the United States to escape persecution in their homelands are deported without adequate hearing or appeal. This Note argues that the laws violate international obligations and Constitutional law.

Treaty-based permissibility does not however guarantee that particular measures of affirmative action will survive challenges under other constitutional provisions, but it is relevant to an evolving theory of constitutional rights. Indeed, treaty-based permissibility of affirmative action, coupled with other relevant sources, provide …


Indian Nations And The Human Right To An Independent Judiciary, Tom Tso Oct 1998

Indian Nations And The Human Right To An Independent Judiciary, Tom Tso

City University of New York Law Review

I would like to approach the topic of Indian rights in the context of international law from a new perspective. Currently, there is uncertainty as to whether the proposed United Nations Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples will be adopted. Given that the Declaration is stalled in Geneva, and given the resistance of states with large indigenous populations to the notion that indigenous peoples should have rights under international law, who knows when, or if, the Declaration will be adopted. We cannot wait. This article will highlight United States and Indian-nation history in the development of Indian-nation law, and …
