Peter Singer, Drowning Children, And Pro Bono, John M.A. Dipippa
Peter Singer, Drowning Children, And Pro Bono, John M.A. Dipippa
Law Faculty Scholarship
This Article uses the ethicist Peter Singer's principles to examine and critique the legal profession's pro bono efforts in the face of the persistent gap between the public's legal needs and their ability to meet them. Singer argues that adults should jump into a pond to save a drowning child. Using the drowning child as an analogy, this Article argues that lawyers are morally obligated to (1)increase the amount of their pro bono efforts, (2) be more selective in the cases they take, and (3) be significantly more generous in their financial support for legal services providers. These obligations are …

A Call For Strengthening The Role Of Comparative Legal Analysis In The United States, Irene Calboli
A Call For Strengthening The Role Of Comparative Legal Analysis In The United States, Irene Calboli
Faculty Scholarship
This Essay highlights the importance of comparative legal analysis with particular emphasis on the role that this methodology could play for intellectual property scholarship in the United States. In particular, this Essay suggests that U.S. scholars could consider turning with more frequency to comparative legal analysis as an additional methodology to use in their research. Yet, the objective of this Essay is not to suggest that U.S. scholars should engage in comparative legal analysis in lieu of other types of research methodologies. Instead, this Essay simply supports that comparative legal analysis could play a larger role compared to the one …
What Remains "Real" About The Law And Literature Movement?: A Global Appraisal, Richard H. Weisberg
What Remains "Real" About The Law And Literature Movement?: A Global Appraisal, Richard H. Weisberg
Articles
The article explores the enduring relevance and global expansion of the Law and Literature movement, emphasizing its unique contribution to legal discourse by analyzing how narratives reveal the operation of law, the interpretations of legal authorities, and the identifiable causes of legal errors. It argues that literary jurisprudence provides a distinct methodology for understanding jurisprudence, challenging traditional legal scholarship and offering insights into systemic injustices and pathways to justice.

Seeking Common Sense For The Common Law Of Common Interest In The D.C. Circuit, Jared S. Sunshine
Catholic University Law Review
Privilege law can be frustrated by the complexity of modern legal actions involving ramified enterprises engaging with their peers. To protect such allied parties cooperating in litigation or other legal matters, courts have innovated doctrines extending discovery protections to such postures under the names of co-client, joint defense, and common interest privilege. The niceties of these doctrines have proven unclear, however, particularly in the challenging situation of competing companies whose collusion or combinations must be monitored for antitrust concerns. Following a thorough overview of each doctrine and identifying how they overlap and differ, a focused examination of multi-party privilege law …

The Monopoly Myth And Other Tales About The Superiority Of Lawyers, Leslie Levin
The Monopoly Myth And Other Tales About The Superiority Of Lawyers, Leslie Levin
Faculty Articles and Papers
The legal profession’s control of much of the market for legal services is justified by the claim that only licensed lawyers can effectively and ethically represent clients. This article challenges that claim. A review of a number of studies suggests that experienced nonlawyers can provide competent legal services in certain contexts and in some cases, can seemingly do so as effectively as lawyers. There is also little evidence that lawyers’ legal training, the bar admission requirements, or lawyers’ psychological characteristics make them more trustworthy than nonlawyer legal services providers. The article considers some recent initiatives, such as Washington’s approval of …
