New Dimensions In Corporate Counseling In Environmental Law, Nicholas A. Robinson

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

This article's thesis is that attorneys cannot wait any longer to begin practicing environmental law. The bar has a responsibility to insure that our laws are obeyed and implemented. In advising a client regarding compliance with environmental laws, the legal counselor has unique opportunities to advance not only the client's interests, but also the public's interest in environmental protection.

A Civil Libertarian Looks At Securities Regulation, Monroe H. Freedman

Hofstra Law Faculty Scholarship

Since I am a stranger to this group and, indeed, to this area of the law, it seems appropriate that I begin by introducing myself and indicating the perspective-from which I view securities regulation. I suppose I would be characterized as an old-fashioned New Deal Democrat. I therefore approach the area of securities regulation with a great deal of sympathy with the rights of the little guy and a good deal less sympathy with those whom the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Ray Garret:, Jr., recently referred to as "robber barons, princes of privilege, [and] malefactors of great wealth."' …

Legislative Ethics, 1973., James R. Nowlin

St. Mary's Law Journal

Approaching the 63d Regular Session of the Texas State Legislature, the need to establish new standards of ethical conduct for the attorney-legislators had increased substantially in public support. The “Sharpstown” Bank scandal and the recent indictments of several present and former state legislators, on numerous counts of theft of state funds, had severely eroded public confidence in the moral turpitude of state lawmakers. This study examines the Texas state legislative process and the conflicting interests that arise in the task of drafting and passing bills in the House of Representatives and the Senate. There were several attempts, prior to 1973, …

Technology Assessment And Social Control, Michael S. Baram

Faculty Scholarship

The emerging concepts of corporate responsibility and technology assessment are, to a considerable extent, responses to problems arising from technological developments and their applications by industry and government. These problems appear in the relatively discrete sectors of consumer protection and occupational safety and in the diffuse sectors of community quality of life and the national and international environments.

The Virtuous Prosecutor In Quest Of An Ethical Standard: Guidance From The Aba, H. Richard Uviller

Michigan Law Review

Among his other endeavors, the public prosecutor strives to maintain an upright stance in the stained halls of criminal justice. He correctly senses that the people demand more of him than diligent, workmanlike performance of his public chores. Virtue is the cherished ingredient in his role: the honorable exercise of the considerable discretionary power with which our legal system has endowed his office. Daily, the ethical fibre of the prosecutor is tested -and through him, in large measure, the rectitude of the system of justice.

Here, I shall discuss only three of the many ethical problems along the prosecutor's way: …

Rip-Off Professionalism, Marilyn C. Zilli

IUSTITIA

In the February 1972 issue of PRO SE (National Law Women's Newsletter) an article entitled "Professional Rip-off" criticized the Women's Liberation Movement for producing what the authors call "grasping opportunists," "pleasant, reasonable, charming, and eternally submissive sell-out[s] " (page 4). They are referring to professional women and posit that because, in a capitalist society, professional status is a privilege enjoyed by few, the claim that all women will benefit from an improvement in the status of professional women could not be farther from the truth (page 4): "Instead of making women more 'equal,' the new female professionals make themselves more …

Book Review, W. Leslie Peat

Vanderbilt Law Review

The Ethical Investor is, despite its flaws, as thorough and comprehensive a treatment of the problems of universities and corporate responsibility as might be desired. It should be required reading for university trustees, and it offers many valuable insights to the general reader. Although it may appear that student and faculty interest has diminished somewhat during the past two years, it is nearly a certainty that this has been more the result of an intelligent and sincere response by university administrators and trustees than of any profound change in the climate of opinion. If the universities continue to respond in …

The Code Of Professional Responsibility In The Corporate World: An Abdication Of Professional Self-Regulation, Carl A. Pierce

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

The American Bar Association's Code of Professional Responsibility (Code or CPR) provides the foundation for the regulation of the legal profession by the members of the profession themselves. Although the drafters of the CPR have described it as a body of fundamental ethical principles applicable to all lawyers regardless of the nature of their professional activities, this article examines the vitality of the CPR and professional self-regulation in one particular area of lawyers' activities: corporate practice? The article suggests that the legal profession has abdicated its self-regulatory role, discusses the consequences of this abdication, and advances some alternatives to remedy …

Disqualifications For Interest Of Lower Federal Court Judges: 28 U.S.C. § 455, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

Disqualification of a judge occurs when he is ineligible by law to sit in a particular case. At the Supreme Court level, disqualification is a personal decision of the individual justice, who seldom records the reasons for his decision. Thus, there is little material on the Court's disqualification practices that can be subjected to legal analysis. However, substantial case law on disqualification has developed in the lower federal courts, where the decision of a trial judge to sit or step down in a case may appear in the trial record and is subject to review by a court of appeals. …
