Faculty Articles and Other Publications

In 2008, the Section on Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar of the American Bar Association commenced a comprehensive review of the accreditation standards for American legal education. By July of 2011, most of the revised standards and rules of procedure had been drafted, discussed and approved by the section's Standards Review Committee ("SRC") and were ready for submission to the council. However, the SRC's revised accreditation policies were not submitted for action by the council until 2014, more than six years after the review process began, as a result of decisions made by section leaders. The revised standards …


Expectations In The Mirror: Lawyer Professionalism And The Errors Of Mandatory Aspirations, Keith W. Rizzardi Jan 2017

Expectations In The Mirror: Lawyer Professionalism And The Errors Of Mandatory Aspirations, Keith W. Rizzardi

Florida State University Law Review

For years, Florida has been a leader in the professionalism movement, and state leaders have created new documents and standards to make professionalism enforceable. The rest of the nation can learn from Florida’s errors, because the Sunshine State has blurred the lines between professionalism and legal ethics. In fact, history shows that Florida is simply repeating the same mistakes that have been addressed time and time again as our system of legal ethics has evolved. At times, Florida’s professionalism concepts even contradict themselves. Indeed, from a jurisprudential perspective, even H.L.A. Hart and Lon Fuller—who otherwise disagreed over the morality of …


The Rules Of Maternity, Dara E. Purvis Jan 2017

The Rules Of Maternity, Dara E. Purvis

Tennessee Law Review

A diverse body of laws and regulations speaking to reproductive rights, healthcare, criminal punishment of drug use, termination of parental rights, and more creates the rules of maternity. These rules are guidance provided both obliquely and explicitly by the law's coercive power telling women both how to and who should mother. Rule 1 begins in pregnancy, with the message that "your body is your child's vessel." During pregnancy, women are counselled that doctor knows best. After the child's birth, the mother remains responsible for the people who enter a child's life, leading to rule 3: "mothers must always protect." Rule …


Substantive And Procedural Silence, Erin Sheley Jan 2017

Substantive And Procedural Silence, Erin Sheley

Tennessee Law Review

Empirical work shows that perceptions of the procedural fairness of the criminal justice system turns on whether it gives individuals and communities a "voice," or a forum in which to tell their stories. If the system imposes unwanted silence on a party its legitimacy in the eyes of the public decreases. Despite the extensive literature on the many specific applications of silence in the justice system, no attempt has yet been made to break down the relationship between the victim's silence and the defendant's across the disparate doctrines of criminal law, or the importance of these interconnections to the expressive …

Trump And Chinese Exclusion: Contemporary Parallels With Legislative Debates Over The Chinese Exclusion Act Of 1882, Stuart Chinn Jan 2017

Trump And Chinese Exclusion: Contemporary Parallels With Legislative Debates Over The Chinese Exclusion Act Of 1882, Stuart Chinn

Tennessee Law Review

Donald Trump's presidential victory in November has prompted much public commentary about American political dynamics and about the future of American democracy. Given these inquiries, this paper is timely in aiming to reexamine, through a comparative historical lens, one of the most prominent parts of Trump's campaign and one of the biggest points of concern among his critics: Trump's campaign rhetoric on immigration. Trump's own flirtation with racist themes is easy to identify in some of his most notable campaign comments regarding Mexican immigrants and Muslim immigrants. And given that these comments were also directed at immigrant constituencies, equally clear …

A Model Of First Amendment Decision-Making At A Divided Court, Kyle Langvardt Jan 2017

A Model Of First Amendment Decision-Making At A Divided Court, Kyle Langvardt

Tennessee Law Review

On First Amendment issues, today's Supreme Court is arguably the most protective in the institution's history. But the apparent libertarian consensus masks a surprisingly deep disagreement about methodology. The Court's Republican Justices prefer an austere, formal approach in which logical conclusions are pursued to the furthest reach. The Court's Democratic Justices, on the other hand, would follow a more complex, contextual approach in which rules and standards are often custom-tailored to narrow factual domains.

This Article models that divide. I demonstrate that the Court's First Amendment case law over the past three decades has conformed to a small set of …
