Defining Indefiniteness: Suggested Revisions To The Void For Vagueness Doctrine, Cristina D. Lockwood
Defining Indefiniteness: Suggested Revisions To The Void For Vagueness Doctrine, Cristina D. Lockwood
Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal
The void for vagueness doctrine is itself indefinite. The current void for vagueness analysis provides that the law is void for vagueness if it fails to provide fair notice of the prohibited conduct or is so standardless that it allows for discriminatory enforcement. Uncertainty within the doctrine exists because the United States Supreme Court has not articulated a definitive position as to when facial review is appropriate in the void for vagueness analysis. Further, the Court's decision that a law can be void for vagueness based solely on a finding that there is a potential for discriminatory enforcement creates uncertainty …

In The Manner Prescribed By The State: Potential Challenges To State-Enforced Hospital Limitations On Childbirth Options, Krista Stone-Manista
In The Manner Prescribed By The State: Potential Challenges To State-Enforced Hospital Limitations On Childbirth Options, Krista Stone-Manista
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The article argues that hospital bans on vaginal births after cesarean (VBAC) infringe upon women's legal and constitutional rights, violating principles of autonomy and equality. These bans are not only medically unnecessary but also undermine international human rights standards that protect women's decisional autonomy in healthcare. The analysis posits that such bans discriminate against women and set a dangerous precedent for state and medical control over women's bodies during pregnancy.
What Went Wrong? Why Family Preservation Programs Failed To Achieve Their Potential, Steven M. Cytryn
What Went Wrong? Why Family Preservation Programs Failed To Achieve Their Potential, Steven M. Cytryn
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The failure of family preservation programs in the child welfare system stems from structural and legal shortcomings, including inadequate funding, unclear guidelines, and insufficient oversight. These issues, compounded by the Supreme Court's Suter v. Artist M. decision, which undermined the enforceability of the "reasonable efforts" standard, have led to inconsistent implementation and reduced accountability. To address these challenges, the article advocates for reforms such as aligning funding incentives with family preservation goals, establishing clear program standards, and distinguishing between neglect caused by poverty and other forms of maltreatment. By implementing these changes, the child welfare system can better support families …
Publicity, Pressure, And Environmental Legislation: The Untold Story Of Availability Campaigns, Molly J. Walker Wilson, Megan P. Fuchs
Publicity, Pressure, And Environmental Legislation: The Untold Story Of Availability Campaigns, Molly J. Walker Wilson, Megan P. Fuchs
Cardozo Law Review
The availability heuristic - a cognitive rule of thumb whereby events that are easily brought to mind are judged to be more likely - is employed by decision-makers on a daily basis. Availability campaigns occur when individuals and groups strategically exploit this cognitive tendency in order to generate publicity for a particular issue, creating pressure to effect legislative change. This paper is the first to argue that environmental availability campaigns are more beneficial than they are harmful. Because they result in pressure on Congress, these campaigns serve as a catalyst for the enactment of critical new legislative initiatives. Specifically, these …
Evidence Gained From Torture: Wishful Thinking, Checkability, And Extreme Circumstances, James Franklin
Evidence Gained From Torture: Wishful Thinking, Checkability, And Extreme Circumstances, James Franklin
Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law
The article argues that while torture is morally abhorrent, its effectiveness in extracting reliable information should be evaluated separately from ethical considerations. It contends that torture can yield reliable information when the extracted details can be independently verified, challenging the common assumption that torture universally leads to false confessions. The analysis emphasizes the importance of understanding the factual reliability of torture-derived evidence before addressing its legal admissibility.

Revisiting The Un Protocol On Human Trafficking: Striking Balances For More Effective Legislation, Kalen Fredette
Revisiting The Un Protocol On Human Trafficking: Striking Balances For More Effective Legislation, Kalen Fredette
Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law
Human trafficking is a growing global criminal concern. This paper assesses several national and multi-national efforts to combat human trafficking, focusing particularly on the UN Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, Especially Women and Children (Protocol). Ultimately, the rise in trafficking offenses compared to the sparse number of convictions strongly suggests the inadequacy of the national and multinational efforts currently in play. This paper will take a fresh look at key provisions of the recent Protocol in light of newly published data on trafficking, and will explore possible modifications to the instrument which may increase its effectiveness. …
The Role Of Litigation In Combating Obesity Among Poor Urban Minority Youth: A Critical Analysis Of Pelman V. Mcdonald's Corp., Ashley B. Antler
The Role Of Litigation In Combating Obesity Among Poor Urban Minority Youth: A Critical Analysis Of Pelman V. Mcdonald's Corp., Ashley B. Antler
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The note argues that litigation, particularly when focused on low-income urban minority youth, could serve as a strategic tool to address childhood obesity by reframing the issue and catalyzing policy and industry change. It critiques the Pelman v. McDonald's Corp. lawsuit for failing to address the socioeconomic and racial disparities underlying obesity rates, thereby missing an opportunity to advance meaningful solutions. The analysis suggests that public health litigation, when strategically framed, can complement broader advocacy efforts and push for environmental changes to combat the obesity epidemic.
Arbitration Reform: What We Know And What We Need To Know, Peter B. Rutledge
Arbitration Reform: What We Know And What We Need To Know, Peter B. Rutledge
Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution
The future of commercial arbitration has become a centerpiece of the domestic congressional agenda. According to one estimate, ten different bills introduced in the 110th Congress would chip away at the enforceability of pre-dispute arbitration agreements. By far the most significant bill, the Arbitration Fairness Act, would retroactively invalidate arbitration agreements in all employment, consumer, securities and franchise contracts. An especially vague provision in a prior version of the bill would invalidate agreements involving claims under statutes intended to protect civil rights or designed to regulate transactions between parties of unequal bargaining power. Are these wise moves?

The article examines bankruptcy statutes and practices across 50 countries, emphasizing the need for efficient, practical reforms that maximize estate value while addressing global diversity in insolvency frameworks. It advocates for a comprehensive approach to bankruptcy law, ensuring transparency, fairness, and alignment with economic goals.

Haste Makes E-Waste: A Comparative Analysis Of How The United States Should Approach The Growing E-Waste Threat, Phoenix Pak
Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law
The note examines the global e-waste crisis, focusing on the regulatory frameworks in the European Union, United States, and Japan. It critiques the effectiveness of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) models and highlights the challenges of enforcing e-waste policies across jurisdictions. The author argues for a balanced approach in U.S. policy, combining elements of the EU’s EPR framework with considerations for domestic and international implications to address the environmental and health risks posed by e-waste.

Incest And Sex Offender Registration: Who Is Registration Helping And Who Is It Hurting?, Jocelyn Ho
Incest And Sex Offender Registration: Who Is Registration Helping And Who Is It Hurting?, Jocelyn Ho
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The note argues that sex offender registration and notification laws, such as Megan's Law, disproportionately harm victims and offenders in cases of incest. It contends that incest is distinct from other sex crimes due to its familial nature and low recidivism rates, making its inclusion in public registries unnecessary and counterproductive. The psychological and social consequences of registration extend to victims, violating their privacy and perpetuating stigma. The note advocates for a shift in policy focus toward prevention, victim empowerment, and rehabilitation rather than punitive measures.

Reinventing Eugenics: Reproductive Choice And Law Reform After World War Ii, Mary Ziegler
Reinventing Eugenics: Reproductive Choice And Law Reform After World War Ii, Mary Ziegler
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The article argues that eugenic ideologies did not disappear from American law after World War II but instead evolved and were repackaged in response to shifting political and social norms. While the association with Nazi practices led to the decline of overtly coercive eugenic laws, eugenic principles persisted through new strategies, such as voluntary sterilization and population control initiatives. The article contends that the concept of reproductive choice became a key tool for redefining eugenic goals, allowing them to influence law and policy in more subtle ways.
Lifting The Veil: Women And Islamic Law, Christie S. Warren
Lifting The Veil: Women And Islamic Law, Christie S. Warren
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The article explores whether Islamic law can reconcile its teachings with the rights of women, highlighting the Prophet Muhammad's respectful treatment of women while examining the current disparities in women's rights in various Muslim-majority countries. It argues that while Islamic law has the potential to support gender equality, historical and cultural interpretations have often led to discrimination against women. The article suggests that reform is possible through reinterpretation of Islamic sources and increased female participation in legal scholarship.
Regulating "Rent-A-Cops" Post-9/11: Why The Private Security Officer Employment Authorization Act Fails To Address Homeland Security Concerns, Ian Patrick Mcginley
Regulating "Rent-A-Cops" Post-9/11: Why The Private Security Officer Employment Authorization Act Fails To Address Homeland Security Concerns, Ian Patrick Mcginley
Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal
The article critiques the Private Security Officer Employment Authorization Act (PSOEAA) for its limited scope in addressing homeland security concerns related to private security officers. While the Act introduces a background check system, it fails to adequately address terrorist infiltration, training, and cooperation with public law enforcement. The analysis argues that federal regulation, led by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), is necessary to enhance the private security industry's role in homeland security. A grant-based regulatory scheme is proposed to incentivize training, cooperation, and improved screening processes for private security officers, particularly those guarding critical infrastructure.
Can The Australian Model Be Applied To U.S. Moral Rights Legislation?, Joan Pattarozzi
Can The Australian Model Be Applied To U.S. Moral Rights Legislation?, Joan Pattarozzi
Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law
The note argues that the U.S. should adopt a more comprehensive framework for moral rights in copyright law, drawing inspiration from Australia's balanced approach, to better protect authors' personal and reputational interests while addressing concerns about market disruption and litigation. It highlights the U.S.'s current emphasis on economic rights, its limited implementation of moral rights under the Visual Artists Rights Act (VARA), and the potential for Australia's model to serve as a template for U.S. legislation.

Creating An Adolescent Criminal Class: Juvenile Court Jurisdiction Over Status Offenders, Soma R. Kedia
Creating An Adolescent Criminal Class: Juvenile Court Jurisdiction Over Status Offenders, Soma R. Kedia
Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal
The article argues that status offenders, who commit non-criminal offenses such as truancy or running away, are unfairly treated similarly to juvenile delinquents in the court system. This treatment often leads to detention in the same facilities as delinquents, which can exacerbate behavioral issues and increase the likelihood of future criminal behavior. The author advocates for a distinct approach to handling status offenders, emphasizing the need for social services and alternative programs tailored to their specific needs rather than punitive measures.

An Examination Of Guest Worker Immigration Reform Policies In The United States, Merav Lichtenstein
Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal
The note examines the history and challenges of guest worker programs in the United States, emphasizing the need for reforms that balance border security with humane and practical solutions. It critiques current visa systems for their inflexibility and exploitation risks, advocating for pathways to permanent residency and family reunification to address the growing undocumented population effectively.
Battling Breast Cancer: New York's Laws Are Not Enough, Tara Arschin
Battling Breast Cancer: New York's Laws Are Not Enough, Tara Arschin
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The note argues that New York State should mandate insurance coverage for participation in Phase II and Phase III clinical trials for experimental breast cancer treatments, such as HDCABMT, to address gaps in current law and ensure access to potentially life-saving therapies. While New York has progressive laws on breast cancer awareness and treatment rights, its approach to experimental treatment coverage remains inadequate compared to states like California and Massachusetts. The note advocates for legal reforms to eliminate the need for external appeals and reduce litigation, ensuring consistent and equitable access to clinical trials.
