Custody Rights Of Lesbian And Gay Parents Redux: The Irrelevance Of Constitutional Principles, Nancy Polikoff
Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals
Disputes over custody and visitation can arise when a marriage ends and one parent comes out as gay or lesbian. the heterosexual parent may seek custody or may seek to restrict the activities of the gay or lesbian parent, or the presence of the parent's same-sex partner, during visitation. A gay or lesbian parent's assertion of constitutional rights has not been an effective response to such efforts. that is not likely to change. Advocates for gay and lesbian parents have argued forcefully for a nexus text, permitting consideration of a parent's sexual orientation only when there is evidence of an …
From 'Barbarity' To Regularity: A Case Study Of 'Unnecesarean' Malpractice Claims, Jamie Abrams
From 'Barbarity' To Regularity: A Case Study Of 'Unnecesarean' Malpractice Claims, Jamie Abrams
Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals
This paper is a case study from “barbarity” to “regularity” examining comparatively the first ever “unnecesarean” lawsuit arising out of an 1858 cesarean section malpractice case next to a modern forced cesarean section malpractice suit. It positions the modern “unnecessarean” epidemic, in which 30% of births today are by cesarean section, in a historical medical malpractice context. This case study primarily examines a controversial 1858 lawsuit arising out of the first documented cesarean section performed by the revered Dr. Elias Cooper in California. The surgery left Mary Hodges’s bladder, womb, and intestines permanently fused together and left her permanently disfigured. …
Referenda And The District Of Columbia's Human Rights Act: Voting On Same-Sex Marriage In The Nation's Capital, Jacob Stewart
Referenda And The District Of Columbia's Human Rights Act: Voting On Same-Sex Marriage In The Nation's Capital, Jacob Stewart
Legislation and Policy Brief
Beginning with Massachusetts in 2003, the courts and legislatures of many states have had to decide whether same-sex marriage is or should be a fundamental right under their respective constitutions. Although only five states and the District of Columbia legally perform same-sex marriages, a few other jurisdictions are in the process of proposing laws moving in that direction. However, the vast majority of states are holding fast to the traditional heterosexual definition of marriage. Thirty-eight states have adopted some sort of Defense of Marriage Act, constitutional amendment, or similar measure that defines marriage as the union between one man and …

"Don't Ask, Don't Tell" - Except In A Job Interview: The Discriminatory Effect Of The Policy On A Veteran's Employment, Amanda Alquist Pope
Legislation and Policy Brief
A United States military veteran’s ability to receive benefits, such as preference in federal employment is, in part, based upon the reason for discharge. Lesbian, gay, or bisexual (LGB) members of the military may be dishonorably discharged under the “policy concerning homosexuality in the armed forces,” commonly referred to as “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” (DADT). Under this policy, the reason for discharge on a service member’s papers may be listed as “homosexual conduct,” “homosexual act,” or “homosexual admission.” One major discriminatory effect of this policy is that, given the narrative reason that appears on the dis-charge form, this policy effectively …
