A Guide To The Law Of Fair Employment, Benjamin Werne
A Guide To The Law Of Fair Employment, Benjamin Werne
University of Richmond Law Review
In the field of civil rights, there are broad, cumulative remedies available to the aggrieved party. The fabric of these remedies is an amalgam of various and varying statutes, judicial holdings, administrative determinations and arbitral awards. The following article attempts a distillation of current law-much of which is further complicated by conflicting decisions.
Yes Virginia-There Is A Torrens Act
Yes Virginia-There Is A Torrens Act
University of Richmond Law Review
The Torrens law is perhaps the most advantageous yet most infrequently used method of land conveyancing in the United States. This unique system of land registration is the present terminus in the long and ancient history of land conveyancing. Inthe earliest period of land transfers, the method of proving ownership was by actual occupancy. As society became more complex and the need for some formal ratification of owner- ship increased, the ceremony of livery of seisin became the prevalent method of conveying title to land. Later, as the number of land transfers proliferated, a written instrument detailing the history of …

Sex Discrimination In Employment: What Has Title Vii Accomplished For The Female?
Sex Discrimination In Employment: What Has Title Vii Accomplished For The Female?
University of Richmond Law Review
The legislative intent of Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act was to eradicate all forms of discriminatory employment practices based upon race, religion, national origin or sex. While the initial success of accomplishing this goal fell short of what was expected, important strides in recent years have reversed earlier disappointments.
Narrowing The Scope Of The Bona Fide Occupational Qualification Exception-Sex Discrimination In Professional Baseball Runs Afoul Of The Law
University of Richmond Law Review
"Should a gentleman offer a lady a Tiparillo?" Such a question, popu- larized in a familiar advertisement only a few years ago, gives one keen insight into the stereotyped roles accepted for men and women during the past decade. In sharp relief today, women's liberation groups would have one believe that a man need not offer a woman anything; if she wants something, it is hers for the taking. Indeed, a recent national convention of hardcore feminists, echoing this aggressive attitude and citing that women compose fifty-three per cent of the nation's population, have warned that they intend to capture …
Equal Pay: The Hospital-Nursing Home Dilemma
Equal Pay: The Hospital-Nursing Home Dilemma
University of Richmond Law Review
The Equal Pay Act of 19631 (EPA) is not an independent piece of legis- lation, but rather an amendment to existing legislation. The EPA simply adds an additional fair labor standard to the already familiar Fair Labor Standards Act of 19382 (FLSA) [hereinafter alternately referred to as "the Act"]. By utilizing the process of amendment, Congress hoped to avoid the creation of a new bureaucratic structure to enforce the new law,8 and hoped to facilitate compliance because both industry and labor were already aware of the operation and provisions of the FLSA.4 However, what appeared to be a simple matter …

Impasse In Collective Bargaining, David G. Epstein
Impasse In Collective Bargaining, David G. Epstein
Law Faculty Publications
The word "impasse" is an important part of the working vocabulary of all practitioners and students of labor relations. Although numerous trial examiner reports, board orders, court decisions and commentators have used the term impasse, the concept has never been discussed at length. In NLRB v. TexTan, Inc., the Fifth Circuit described "impasse" as "a state of facts in which the parties, despite the best of faith, are simply deadlocked." The Tex-Tan definition, while accurate, is of limited practical significance. It adds little to the definition of impasse that might be found in almost any standard desk dictionary. The only …
Third Party Actions Under Workmen's Compensation Act, J. Westwood Smithers
Third Party Actions Under Workmen's Compensation Act, J. Westwood Smithers
University of Richmond Law Review
At common law any person who wrongfully injures another, intentionally or negligently, is liable to compensate such other person for his damages if the injured person is himself free from contributory fault. If the tortfeasor is a servant, acting within the scope of his employment, his employer (or master) is also liable to answer for the wrong under the long-established doctrine of respondeat superior,with certain exceptions in which immunity is granted to the state, or subdivisions thereof, and to charitable institutions. The trend in modern times has been to narrow, or to entirely abolish, such immunity. By the Federal Tort …
