Judicial Professionalism In A New Era Of Judicial Selection, Patrick Emery Longan May 2005

Judicial Professionalism In A New Era Of Judicial Selection, Patrick Emery Longan

Mercer Law Review

On October 22, 2004, the Mercer Law Review and the Mercer Center for Legal Ethics and Professionalism co-sponsored a Symposium on recent developments related to the election of judges. The Symposium was the Fifth Annual Georgia Symposium on Professionalism, the latest in a series of programs funded by a consent order and judgment that settled allegations of litigation misconduct involving the du Pont Corporation several years ago. That order awarded $2.5 million to each of the four ABA-accredited law schools in Georgia to establish professorial chairs devoted to ethics and professionalism, and it also granted each law school $250,000 to …

Rule-Oriented Realism, Emily Sherwin May 2005

Rule-Oriented Realism, Emily Sherwin

Michigan Law Review

In his new book The Law and Ethics of Restitution, Hanoch Dagan undertakes to explain and justify the American law of restitution. He offers a broad theoretical account of this poorly understood subject, designed not only to fortify the substantive law of restitution but also to clarify the role and methodology of courts in developing the field. Dagan's book also provides lively discussion of the role of restitution in some of the most highly publicized legal developments of recent years. Those who think of restitution as an obscure branch of "legal remedies" may be surprised to read about the …

Against Interpretive Supremacy, Saikrishna Prakash, John Yoo May 2005

Against Interpretive Supremacy, Saikrishna Prakash, John Yoo

Michigan Law Review

Many constitutional scholars are obsessed with judicial review and the many questions surrounding it. One perennial favorite is whether the Constitution even authorizes judicial review. Another is whether the other branches of the federal government must obey the Supreme Court's interpretation of the Constitution and what, if anything, the other branches must do to execute the judiciary's judgments. Marbury v. Madison has been a full-employment program for many constitutional law scholars, including ourselves. Larry Kramer, the new Dean of Stanford Law School, shares this passion. He has devoted roughly the last decade of his career, with two lengthy law review …

Against Dictionaries: Using Analogical Reasoning To Achieve A More Restrained Textualism, Jason Weinstein Apr 2005

Against Dictionaries: Using Analogical Reasoning To Achieve A More Restrained Textualism, Jason Weinstein

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

This Note argues that new textualists should abandon dictionaries as a source for legal interpretation. Textualists believe in restricting judges to the intent discernible from the words of a statute and contend that legislative history is unacceptable as a source of this intention. Both of these sentiments lead textualists to dictionaries as the intuitively correct solution for ambiguities in a text. The author argues, however, that dictionaries by their very nature cannot help discern between reasonable definitions at the margins of meaning. The use of dictionaries in these situations allows for a sham formalism, unrestrictive in result and unrevealing of …

Reforming The Child Welfare System, Marcia Robinson Lowry Apr 2005

Reforming The Child Welfare System, Marcia Robinson Lowry

Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal

The article argues that child welfare systems in the United States are failing to meet the needs of children and families, particularly poor and marginalized ones, and that litigation is an essential tool for driving systemic reform. It highlights the ineffectiveness of current policies, the lack of political will and accountability, and the critical role of class action lawsuits in exposing systemic failures and securing resources and reforms.
