The Challenge Of Legal Citation Systems, Joshua Levine

Library Staff Online Writings

Mastering legal citation means understanding multiple citation systems. In addition to the Bluebook, fifty states produce fifty sets of laws, and each state decides how it wants its own materials to be cited. For case law, the Bluebook advises authors to use the West Reporter citations if available, but to add public domain citations if a state uses them. However, a state’s internal rules may require citation to the official state reports. All this creates a maze of rules that practitioners need to follow. Legal citation presents difficulties for law students that law librarians and instructors need to appreciate, so …

“Battlefield Humanitarianism”: Navigating The Role Of Adr In Humanitarian Law Complexities Of Urban Warfare, Benjamin Gotian

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution (CJCR) Blog

The resulting devastation of World War II produced a need for rules of engagement and protection of innocent civilians. Nevertheless, an increasing number of armed conflicts are currently being fought in dense urban environments. As a result, the risk of collateral damage and harm to civilians has drastically increased, making it significantly more difficult to adhere to international humanitarian law (“IHL”) and the rules of war.

Ensuring civilians caught in the crossfire get the necessary humanitarian aid and coordinating with all stakeholders is incredibly complex. This process of protecting civilians in active war zones and generally upholding humanitarian law is …

The Second Circuit Considers Whether Instacart Shoppers Are Exempt From The Federal Arbitration Act In A Post-Bissonnette World, Emily Prendergast

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights and Social Justice (ERSJ) Blog

The gig economy consists of individuals, known as gig workers, who perform on-demand labor through digital platforms, such as apps or websites. This structure provides gig workers flexible employment opportunities and autonomy over their hours.  However, employers often incorrectly label gig workers as independent contractors, allowing employers to avoid paying federal and state taxes while also withholding worker protections typically required by federal law.  Mislabeling gig workers persists due to the lack of state regulations defining the scope of employment relationships in the emerging gig industry, and the enforcement of arbitration clauses between workers and employers hinders the enactment of …

People Or Profit? The National Mediation Board Must Also Prioritize Workers, Leah Susman

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights and Social Justice (ERSJ) Blog

For over five years, United Airlines (“United”) flight attendants, represented by their union, the Association of Flight Attendants (“AFA-UA”), have faced stalled contract negotiations with United management.  The AFA-UA is calling for wage increases and improved schedule flexibility.  The starting pay rate for a United flight attendant maxes out at about $25,992 per year, and some employees have to rely on food stamps and alternative housing options because they cannot afford to pay rent.  Unwilling to work under these conditions any longer, the AFA-UA voted 99.99% in favor to authorize a strike on August 24, 2024.

Shifting Priorities: A Comparative Assessment Of The Trump And Biden Administrations’ Conventional Arms Policies, Jeremy Coppola

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights and Social Justice (ERSJ) Blog

The United States “cannot be both the world’s leading champion of peace and the world’s leading supplier of weapons of war”. The United States Conventional Arms Transfer (“CAT”) Policy establishes the executive branch’s priorities and reasoning for the export of conventional arms to other nations. At its inception in 1979, CAT Policy was a “policy of self-imposed restraint” with regards to arm sales and transfers to any nation. It has since evolved, with each subsequent administration having its own view of the role the United States should play in championing peace. The Biden Administration has made significant progress in advancing …
