One For My Baby, One More For The Road: Legislation And Counseling To Prevent Prenatal Exposure To Alcohol, James Drago

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The note examines the legal and ethical implications of balancing fetal rights with maternal autonomy, particularly in cases where pregnant women consume alcohol, potentially harming the fetus. It argues that while fetal rights have gained recognition in tort law, criminalizing maternal conduct raises constitutional concerns, including privacy and equal protection. The analysis advocates for a balanced approach, combining moderate criminal sanctions with education and support programs to protect fetal health while respecting women's rights.

Criminal And Civil Parental Liability Statutes: Would They Have Saved The 15 Who Died At Columbine?, Eric P. Ebenstein

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The note argues that current parental liability statutes in the United States are insufficient to hold parents accountable for their children's violent acts, such as the Columbine High School massacre. It advocates for strengthening these laws, particularly by adopting a negligence standard, to incentivize parents to monitor their children's activities more effectively and prevent such tragedies.

"A Revolution Which Seeks To Abolish Law, Must End Necessarily In Despotism": Louisa Mccord And Antebellum Southern Legal Thought, Alfred L. Brophy Jan 1998

"A Revolution Which Seeks To Abolish Law, Must End Necessarily In Despotism": Louisa Mccord And Antebellum Southern Legal Thought, Alfred L. Brophy

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

Louisa McCord's essays provide a unique lens into the legal and political thought of antebellum Southern society, particularly her defense of slavery and the role of law in maintaining social order. She argued that law should ensure basic fairness in market transactions but should not interfere with the institution of slavery, which she viewed as a matter of sentiment rather than legal regulation. McCord's work challenges the notion that legal history is confined to the common law tradition, emphasizing the importance of understanding law as part of a broader societal outlook.

Prosecuting Teenage Parents Under Fornication Statutes: A Constitutionally Suspect Legal Solution To The Social Problem Of Teenage Pregnancy, Juhi Mehta

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The note argues that the constitutional right to privacy, as established by precedent, protects individuals' decisions regarding childbearing and sexual activity. It critiques the use of archaic fornication statutes to prosecute pregnant teenagers, asserting that such prosecutions impose an undue burden on constitutionally protected freedoms. The analysis emphasizes the need for policies addressing teen pregnancy that prioritize education, access to contraception, and legal reforms over punitive measures.

When Is A Mortgage Guarantee Not Worth The Price Of A Notary? - The Incongruent Judicial Application Of New York’S Deficiency Judgment Statute, Benjamin Gruberg Jul 1997

When Is A Mortgage Guarantee Not Worth The Price Of A Notary? - The Incongruent Judicial Application Of New York’S Deficiency Judgment Statute, Benjamin Gruberg

Cardozo Law Review

Collateral for a mortgage is usually real property which, in the event that the mortgagor (borrower) defaults, is often sold by the mortgagee (lender) in a foreclosure sale. When the collateral consists of multiple parcels of real property and sale of the first parcel fails to realize the full amount of the outstanding debt, a deficiency results. The mortgagee next expects to sell the remaining properties in an attempt to secure full payment of this deficiency.
