Thurgood Marshall And The Forgotten Legacy Of Brown V. Board Of Education, Kenneth F. Ripple Apr 1980

Thurgood Marshall And The Forgotten Legacy Of Brown V. Board Of Education, Kenneth F. Ripple

Journal Articles

On May 17, 1979, the United States celebrated, with relatively little public ceremony, the twenty-fifth anniversary of Brown v. Board of Education. Two years earlier, another anniversary was celebrated even more quietly as Thurgood Marshall, the principal architect of the school desegregation litigation, celebrated his first decade as a justice of the Supreme Court of the United States. Anniversaries are traditionally a time both of celebration and reflection. These particular anniversaries are appropriate occasions for celebration since each marks an important milestone in American life. At the same time, both present a unique opportunity for reflection upon and reassessment of …

The Scientific Method In Legal Thought: Legal Realism And The Fourteen Principles Of Justice., C. Kaufman Mar 1980

The Scientific Method In Legal Thought: Legal Realism And The Fourteen Principles Of Justice., C. Kaufman

St. Mary's Law Journal

The purpose of the law is to do justice. This has led to society believing that justice is a legitimate function of the law. Because of this, the decisions of courts and legislators reflect core principles of justice that underlay the law. By utilizing the scientific method’s process of looking at data and drawing a hypothesis to explain that data, these core principles of justice can be hammered out by examining the just explanations for different lines of cases or statutes and can be seen consistently running throughout recorded decisions. Because of the law’s purpose of justice, it should always …

Rhetorical Styles On The Fuller Court, Walter F. Pratt Jan 1980

Rhetorical Styles On The Fuller Court, Walter F. Pratt

Journal Articles

"Formalism" is the label regularly used to describe judicial opinions of the late nineteenth century. The label is descriptive when used in contradistinction to "instrumentalism." Use of the label, however, has certain drawbacks. For example, there is little objective or empirical evidence to support the application of the two antithetical terms. In addition, a single term cannot reflect whatever diversity of styles may exist among the judges of a single court. This article describes the results of an attempt to rectify those two drawbacks and to determine whether the Justices of the Supreme Court at the turn of the century—while …

The Emergence Of Critical Social Theory In American Jurisprudence: An Introduction To Professor Rosenberg's Perspective, Harlan S. Abrahams Jan 1980

The Emergence Of Critical Social Theory In American Jurisprudence: An Introduction To Professor Rosenberg's Perspective, Harlan S. Abrahams

Seattle University Law Review

Norman Rosenberg's treatment of Thomas Cooley, liberal jurisprudence, and the law of libel exemplifies both a difficulty with and an opportunity for traditional law review scholarship. The difficulty arises from the failure of many legal writers to identify and explain the jurisprudential perspectives that define their substantive approach. This problem is particularly acute when, as in Professor Rosenberg's article, the jurisprudential perspective deviates from the mainstream. The opportunity lies in bringing the problem of perspective out of the closet and legitimating its critical treatment as an integral element of all legal scholarship.


Thomas M. Cooley, Liberal Jurisprudence, And The Law Of Libel, 1868-1884, Norman L. Rosenberg Jan 1980

Thomas M. Cooley, Liberal Jurisprudence, And The Law Of Libel, 1868-1884, Norman L. Rosenberg

Seattle University Law Review

During the past two decades, and especially since 1970, there has been a steadily growing interest in American legal history, including the work of nineteenth-century legal figures, including Thomas M.Cooley. Most scholars once dismissed Cooley as a simplistic apologist for laissez faire economics and late nineteenth-century capitalism. Recently, however, legal and constitutional historians have realized that his legal thought was much more complex. In part, this article seeks to extend recent work on Cooley and to examine his ideas and judicial opinions on freedom of expression and the law of libel. Cooley's views about free expression, defamation law, and American …

The Jury As A Source Of Reasonable Search And Seizure Law, Ronald J. Bacigal Jan 1980

The Jury As A Source Of Reasonable Search And Seizure Law, Ronald J. Bacigal

Law Faculty Publications

The definition of a reasonable search has bedeviled the United States Supreme Court for some ninety years. Formal logic or legal reasoning assists the Court in tracing premise to conclusion, but does not alone suggest the initial premise. The Court's difficulty in fourth amendment cases, in general, lies in identifying the premise-the fundamental value which is embodied in this constitutional guarantee. The Court has recognized that this fundamental value, whatever it is, has an origin outside the language of the amendment, and the Court has considered sources such as history, popular consensus, natural law, and utilitarian balancing to find this …

Review Of Wiltshire Gaol Delivery And Trailbaston Trials, 1275-1306, Thomas A. Green Jan 1980

Review Of Wiltshire Gaol Delivery And Trailbaston Trials, 1275-1306, Thomas A. Green

Reviews

Ralph B. Pugh's handsome edition of Wiltshire gaol delivery and trailbaston trial rolls for the reign of Edward I provides a valuable resource for scholars of medieval crime and criminal law. The period covered bridges the era of the infrequent general eyres and that of the frequent circuits to try those being held on criminal charges. This transition period saw the development of various institutions and procedures designed to deal with a decline in social stability and an increase in criminal activity. To date, most scholarship has focused either on the workings of the mid-thirteenth- century eyre or on the …
