Freedom Of Association After Roberts V. United States Jaycees, Douglas O. Linder

Michigan Law Review

The decision of the U.S. Supreme Court in Roberts v. United States Jaycees, upholding a Minnesota ruling which requires the Minnesota Jaycees to admit women as full members, ended one controversy but marked only the beginning of a far larger one. It was predicted by many that U.S. Jaycees would answer the question of whether private associations with restrictive membership policies were vulnerable to state anti-discrimination laws or were constitutionally protected. It did not. Instead, while rejecting the Jaycees' constitutional claims, the Court established a comprehensive framework for analyzing future claims of associational freedom that contains a number of …

Denial Of Unemployment Benefits To Otherwise Eligible Women On The Basis Of Pregnancy: Section 3304(A)(12) Of Federal Unemployment Tax Act, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

This Note examines the conflicting interpretations of section 3304(a)(12) of the Federal Act. The Porcher decision serves as a point of reference throughout this Note, since opposing constructions of the section were presented in the case.

Part II analyzes section 3304(a)(12) with reference to the statutory language and legislative history. As a preliminary matter, this part considers the degree of deference that should be afforded the Secretary of Labor's certification of state programs that treat pregnancy like all other medical …

The Future Of Comparable Worth Theory, Nancy Levit, Joan Mahoney

Faculty Works

Despite statutes intended to remedy wage disparities between men and women, the average woman working full-time earns only sixty percent as much as her male counterpart. While a portion of the earnings differential is attributable to "pure" or intentional discrimination, approximately eighty-two percent of the difference is due to occupational segregation. As commonly understood, occupational segregation refers to the situation in which women work at jobs that historically have been held by women and that are less remunerative than jobs usually held by men.

Only recently has the distinction between intentional discrimination and discrimination resulting from occupational segregation commanded much …

Applying Restitution To Remedy A Discriminatory Denial Of Partnership, Candace Kovacic-Fleischer

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

This article suggests that a plaintiff can bring a state cause of action in restitution, liability in unjust enrichment, as an alternative to a federal cause of action in Title VII if the plaintiff was discriminatorily denied partnership by a firm that paid her a salary, but billed her time by the hour to clients. If the firm earned more than it paid in salary and overhead to the plaintiff, that amount would be defendant’s gain, one of the elements of an action in restitution, and the amount to be disgorged should plaintiff prove the other two elements, that the …

A Proposed Analysis For Gender-Based Practices And State Public Accommodations Laws, Alan J. Hoff

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

This Note argues that the proper test of gender-preferential practices in public accommodations proceeds from the principle of "equal treatment:'' separate standards are tolerable only where reasonable and applied evenhandedly. Part I sets out a typical public accommodations statute and criticizes the principle tests used to evaluate this type of legislation. Part II applies traditional methods of statutory construction which trigger an equal treatment analysis. Extrapolating from this analysis, Part III advocates a two-part test for examining gender-based practices in public accommodations.

Pregnancy And Hiring Discrimination, April L. Dowler

West Virginia Law Review

The employer looks over the application on his desk. The applicant has the right educational requirements; her references are impressive; she has experience which would greatly benefit her in the position. She looks like a good prospect. The employer buzzes his secretary and requests that the applicant be shown to his office for an interview. As the applicant enters the room he rises to meet her. Half way out of his chair he stops. Printed on the front of the woman's shirt are the letters B-A-B-Y with an arrow pointing down to the slight bulge at the woman's stomach. Politely …

Sex Discrimination: Theories And Defenses Under Title Vii And Burwell V. Eastern Airlines, Inc., Debra G. Archer

West Virginia Law Review

Following the enactment of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act in 1964 dealing with equal opportunity and employment discrimination, there arose a large body of case-law litigating Title VII issues and a large body of articles dissecting the cases and issues. Within this area, different methods for proving Title VII violations and different types of defenses developed. Almost inevitably, confusion arose concerning the applicability of specific defenses to specific types of Title VII violations. The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals attempted to resolve some of this confusion in a sex discrimination case captioned Burwell v. Eastern Airlines, Inc. In …

North Haven And Dougherty: Narrowing The Scope Of Title Ix, Rosemary C. Salomone

Faculty Publications

(Excerpt)

Since 1975 when the former Department of Health, Education and Welfare (hereinafter referred to as HEW) initially promulgated regulations pursuant to Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (hereinafter referred to as Title IX), four Courts of Appeals and numerous District Courts have declared invalid the Title IX regulations governing the employment practices and policies of educational institutions. In an attempt to avoid administrative chaos resulting from enforcement inconsistencies, the Justice Department petitioned the Supreme Court to review the decisions of the First, Sixth and Eighth Circuits. This petition was denied on November 26, 1979, thereby letting the …
