Developing Internal Consistency In Writing Assignments By Involving Students In Problem Drafting, Karin M. Mika
Developing Internal Consistency In Writing Assignments By Involving Students In Problem Drafting, Karin M. Mika
Law Faculty Articles and Essays
This article addresses a legal writing teaching strategy that helps students develop internal consistency in their legal documents with respect to issue, facts, and law. The teacher recounts the effect of her classroom experience by splitting her students into groups, assigning various legal issues, and then having the students draft their own fact situations.
An Early Pennsylvania Legal Periodical Journal Of Law, 1830-31, Joel Fishman
An Early Pennsylvania Legal Periodical Journal Of Law, 1830-31, Joel Fishman
Law Faculty Publications
There has been much written on the history of legal periodicals, especially academic law reviews, but the early history of legal periodicals in the United States has only received cursorily review in two older articles.1 Frederick Hicks lists forty-eight periodicals published in antebellum America, of which twelve were published in Pennsylvania, four before 1831, including no. 1 (American Law Journal, 1808-12), no. 6 (Journal of Jurisprudence, 1821), no. 11 (United States Law and Legal Intelligence, 1829-31) and no. 14 ( Journal of Law, 1830-31).2 This article will review this last periodical …
The Harvard Law School Notebooks (1939-1942) Of George Means Heinitsh, Jr., Joel Fishman
The Harvard Law School Notebooks (1939-1942) Of George Means Heinitsh, Jr., Joel Fishman
Law Faculty Publications
In the mid-1980s, the Allegheny County Law Library received the Harvard Law School student notebooks of the deceased attorney George M. Heinitsh, Jr. from his daughter. I had never received a donation like this before and thought it might be worth keeping because of the Harvard connection and the total amount of books (27).
Citators Of Pennsylvania, Joel Fishman
Citators Of Pennsylvania, Joel Fishman
Law Faculty Publications
Legal literature consists of a variety of secondary sources that assist the researcher in interpreting primary sources. Citators provide a useful tool for researchers needing to find citations to cases, statutes, and other primary sources.1 Lawyers are of course familiar with Shepard's citators for almost one hundred years now. But Shepard's did not always dominate the legal field until after the first decades of the twentieth century.2 But it was not until the end of the first quarter of this century that Shepard's citators gained dominance in Pennsylvania. With over 1,100 volumes of appellate court cases and 1,000 …

The Law Review Article Selection Process: Results From A National Study, Jason P. Nance, Dylan J. Steinberg
UF Law Faculty Publications
The student-edited law review has been a much criticized institution. Many commentators have expressed their belief that students are unqualified to determine which articles should be published in which journals, but these discussions have been largely based on anecdotal evidence of how journals make publication decisions. It was against that backdrop that we undertook a national survey of law reviews in an attempt to determine how student editors responsible for making publication decisions went about their task. This article compiles the results of that survey, which received 191 responses from 163 different journals. We analyzed 56 factors that influence the …
The National Conference Of Law Reviews Symposium Issue, Alfredo Garcia
The National Conference Of Law Reviews Symposium Issue, Alfredo Garcia
St. Thomas Law Review
The articles in this issue contain a common thread: the importance of the enduring values embedded in our Constitution, especially during times when our country confronts challenges that threaten the security of its citizens. In a thoughtful retrospective, one author reminds us of the continuing struggle of the civil rights movement to bring to life the concepts of equality and due process, which form the core of our collective and individual freedoms. It is my honor to distill, in this introduction, the lessons embodied in the penetrating and thought-provoking pieces that comprise this volume.
Did Bankruptcy Reform Fail? An Empirical Study Of Consumer Debtors, Robert M. Lawless, Angela K. Littwin, Katherine M. Porter, John A. E. Pottow, Deborah K. Thorne, Elizabeth Warren
Did Bankruptcy Reform Fail? An Empirical Study Of Consumer Debtors, Robert M. Lawless, Angela K. Littwin, Katherine M. Porter, John A. E. Pottow, Deborah K. Thorne, Elizabeth Warren
Articles
Before 2005, many people went broke and many filed for bankruptcy. After 2005, many people still go broke, but not so many file for bankruptcy. Why has the number of bankruptcies declined? Surely it is not the economy. All throughout the 2000s, families have been under increasing economic pressure. Median family incomes have declined, basic expenses have risen, and families are shouldering unprecedented debt loads. Defaults remain high for credit cards and car loans, while mortgage foreclosures have soared. By 2008, over half of all Americans reported that their incomes were falling behind their cost of living. These data all …
Using Ethics Codes To Reinforce Lessons Of Statutory Interpretation, Edward R. Becker
Using Ethics Codes To Reinforce Lessons Of Statutory Interpretation, Edward R. Becker
Articles
To increase my students' exposure to statutory interpretation, I assign them early in the second semester to argue a motion to disqualify counsel based on imputed disqualification under Michigan's ethics ruls. Interpreting ethics rules involves many of the same "pure" statutory interpretation techniques I introduced the previous semester, and the students appear to easily make any needed translations. This exercise also helps prepare students to interpret other quasi-legislative authorities like court or evidentiary rules, administrative codes, and municipal ordinances.
Empirical Research For Public Policy: With Examples From Family Law, Richard O. Lempert
Empirical Research For Public Policy: With Examples From Family Law, Richard O. Lempert
Articles
Perhaps more than in any other field, legal scholarship has aimed directly at influencing public policy. Hence, it is not surprising that empirical scholarship on law related issues often seems to have an agenda that extends beyond the common social science goals of adding to our knowledge base and understanding of human behavior to suggesting to policy makers and practitioners legal and administrative changes that will ameliorate problems they confront and, by the researcher’s lights, make this a better world in which to live.

From Snail Mail To E-Mail: The Traditional Legal Memorandum In The Twenty-First Century, Kristen Konrad Robbins-Tiscione
From Snail Mail To E-Mail: The Traditional Legal Memorandum In The Twenty-First Century, Kristen Konrad Robbins-Tiscione
Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works
Traditional legal memoranda have been used to teach objective analysis since the inception of legal writing programs in the 1970's. The continued use of these memoranda in the legal writing classroom leads law students to believe that traditional memoranda are still the primary form of communication between attorney and client. A 2006 survey of Georgetown University Law Center graduates, however, suggests that the traditional legal memorandum is all but dead in law practice. Seventy-five percent of the graduates surveyed said they write no more than three traditional memoranda per year. Instead, these graduates are more likely to communicate with clients …

Technology impacts education - the way faculty teach and students learn. For example, faculty members utilize technology in the classroom to engage students and assess their understanding. Some examples of technological tools professors use in class include audience response system (clickers). Outside of the classroom, technology supplements classroom instruction without time and space constraints. For instance, professors record podcasts to review material and critique student memoranda. This article discusses some of the technology tools utilized by faculty and students.

Thre Dreaded Bluebook, Mary Whisner
Librarians' Articles
The Bluebook is reviled by many as confusing, arcane, and nitpicky. And some of those who are stumped and intimidated by the Bluebook come to reference librarians asking for help. Thus we are presented with a wonderful opportunity to serve (while building our credibility and earning our patrons' thanks). But of course we must first get past our own Bluebook anxiety.
