Exclusivity And The Japanese Bar: Ethics Or Self-Interest?, David Hood
Exclusivity And The Japanese Bar: Ethics Or Self-Interest?, David Hood
Washington International Law Journal
The Japanese bar maintains that ethical considerations mandate a low admission rate. However, the bar's limit on the number of lawyers in Japan has socioeconomic effects that extend beyond the legal profession. Also, because there are too few Japanese lawyers, "quasi-lawyer" legal substitutes have emerged to satisfy pent-up demand for legal services. This comment suggests that the Japanese bar should expand its membership in order to address the shortage of legal services in Japan. An expanded bar could also address many of Japan's hidden socioeconomic ills.
Lights, Camera, Litigate: Lawyers And The Media In Canada And The United States, Charles W. Wolfram
Lights, Camera, Litigate: Lawyers And The Media In Canada And The United States, Charles W. Wolfram
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
Drawing on recent high profile cases in Canada and the United States, the author examines the different extent to which lawyers in those two countries comment to the media about ongoing litigation. He investigates various formal constraints upon lawyer comment, such as court-imposed publication bans and rules of professional responsibility. He also looks at the way in which lawyer behavior is attributable to non-formal, cultural determinants.
Children Of A Lesser God: Gdr Lawyers In Post-Socialist Germany, Inga Markovits
Children Of A Lesser God: Gdr Lawyers In Post-Socialist Germany, Inga Markovits
Michigan Law Review
In this essay, I want to investigate German vetting policies by looking at one particular subgroup of examinees: GDR lawyers. In Germany, no other former socialist elite has been submitted to so thorough an ideological cleansing process as the legal profession. After reunification, all GDR judges and prosecutors hoping to remain in office had to undergo investigations that by March 1994 had left only 9.2% of their former numbers in permanent positions. Virtually all East German law professors were removed from their university posts. More than 5000 attorneys in Germany's eastern half are currently being examined for former contacts with …
Women In The Courts: An Old Thorn In Men's Sides, Nikolaus Benke
Women In The Courts: An Old Thorn In Men's Sides, Nikolaus Benke
Michigan Journal of Gender & Law
This article was inspired by the work of a series of state task forces on women in the courts. It examines the subject from a historical perspective, comparing ancient Rome, mainly during the period from the first century B.C. to the third A.D., with the United States, from its prerevolutionary beginnings to the present. The article's focus is gender bias against women acting in official court functions.

The Challenge Of Asian Law, Whitmore Gray
The Challenge Of Asian Law, Whitmore Gray
Articles
Several years ago, when U.S. trade across the Pacific finally surpassed that across the Atlantic, a small group of U.S. lawyers were already responding to the challenge of representing clients in transactions in Asia. While few had had the opportunity to take courses dealing with Asian law during their law school years, many entered the field because of undergraduate language and area studies courses. A few had taught courses dealing with Asia before beginning their law studies.

In Pursuit Of The Counter-Text: The Turn To The Jewish Legal Model In Contemporary American Legal Theory, Suzanne Last Stone
In Pursuit Of The Counter-Text: The Turn To The Jewish Legal Model In Contemporary American Legal Theory, Suzanne Last Stone
Articles
Beginning with Professor Robert Cover's Nomos and Narrative, contemporary American legal scholars have increasingly turned, implicitly or more directly, to the Jewish legal tradition as an example of a legal system in which law is defined not by reference to the authority and power of the State, but rather by the commitment of a legal community to voluntarily-accepted legal obligations. These scholars depict the Jewish legal system as having successfully confronted - and resolved - several central dilemmas currently facing American law by maintaining a coherent legal system while accepting behavioral and interpretive pluralism. In this Article, Professor Stone shows …

Law, Change, And Litigation: A Critical Examination Of An Empirical Research Tradition, Frank W. Munger
Articles & Chapters
This article examines the theory and empirical methods of recent studies of law and litigation. It argues that the recent interest in longitudinal studies of trial court dockets proceeds from a deeply rooted functionalist theoretical tradition in empirical work on courts. Functionalist theory, through its sophisticated application in the work of James Willard Hurst, is described as the direct or indirect source of theory for longitudinal litigation studies. Though there are many reasons for suspecting that fuctionalist theory is inadequate, it has seldom been rejected through proper empirical testing of its hypotheses. The theory, often poorly conceptualized, is discussed here …

Litigation Abuse And The Law Schools, John W. Reed
Litigation Abuse And The Law Schools, John W. Reed
Articles
At the Ninth Circuit Judicial Conference in July, 1983, one session was devoted to a discussion of "Excessive Discovery: A Symptom of Litigation Abuse." (Without knowing, I would guess that a similar title appeared on just about every judicial conference program this year-and last year, and the one before that.) Frank Rothman, President of MGM/United Artists, addressed the subject from the point of view of a corporate client, and his remarks are printed in this issue, beginning at page 342. Judges and trial lawyers expressed their views. And I was asked to comment on the extent to which the law …

Middlemen Of The Law: An Ethnographic Inquiry Into The English Legal Profession, John Flood
Middlemen Of The Law: An Ethnographic Inquiry Into The English Legal Profession, John Flood
Articles by Maurer Faculty
The accomplishments of empirical research are often presented in a context that fails to show the process by which the results came about. This article examines the problems, hitches, and struggles encountered in a research project carried out on the English bar. And emphasis is given to the difficulty of tackling hitherto unexplored occupations that have had a long history of resisting research.

Professional Independence And The Associate In A Law Firm: A French Case Study, Tang Thi Thanh Trai Le
Journal Articles
In June 1977, as a result of a case brought before the Tribunal de la Seine, a "mini-revolution" erupted in French legal circles. A young woman associate of a law firm was discharged at mid-month and paid half (F. 1250) her monthly salary. Mme X considered her dismissal improper and filed a complaint with the Bdtonnier (President) of the Paris Bar. After a hearing, the Conseil de l'Ordre (Executive Committee of the Bar) advised the firm to pay Mme X an additional F. 1250 in settlement. Not satisfied, Mine X took her case to the Tribunal de la Seine requesting …

Governmental And Private Advocates For The Public Interest In Civil Litigation: A Comparative Study, Mauro Cappellitti
Governmental And Private Advocates For The Public Interest In Civil Litigation: A Comparative Study, Mauro Cappellitti
Michigan Law Review
This article examines the means by which public and group interests are represented in civil proceedings throughout the world. I have focused particular attention upon the Ministère public--a French institution imported by a large number of countries--and its analogues, the Attorney General in the common-law countries and the Prokuratura in the socialist world. The Ministère public is, and has been through its centuries-long history, an institutional method for assuring that the "public interest"--or the "collective" or "general interest,'' or the "social concern"--is adequately represented in civil litigation. Yet, other solutions have been utilized--to some extent, even in France--in lieu …
