Franklin V. Gwinnett County "Public Schools": The Supreme Court Implies A Damages Remedy For Title Ix Sex Discrimination, Susan L. Wright

Vanderbilt Law Review

Congress enacted Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (Title IX)' to address the widespread existence of sex discrimination in educational institutions.' Twenty years later, in Franklin v. Gwinnett County Public Schools, a unanimous Supreme Court put teeth into the statute by finding that Title IX relief includes compensatory damages. he Supreme Court's decision resolved a split of authority between the Third Circuit and the Seventh and Eleventh Circuits.

Congress had two main …

The Newly Disenfranchised: A Constitutional Right Withheld, Herman R. Brown Jr. Mar 1992

The Newly Disenfranchised: A Constitutional Right Withheld, Herman R. Brown Jr.

University of the District of Columbia Law Review

Traditionally, Blacks and women have been denied their constitutional rights based strictly on race and sex. This brand of disenfranchisement has in many instances made these groups feel like "second class" citizens. Although recently, these groups have been able to share in some rights previously withheld, the "playing field of equality of rights" is still not level.

Of Heterosexism, National Security, And Federal Preemption: Addressing The Legal Obstacles To A Free Debate About Military Recruitment At Our Nation's Law Schools, Roberto L. Corrada

Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship

It is possible that within the next few years at least one federal circuit court will find constitutional protection for sexual orientation under the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. It is also now assured, due to the election of Bill Clinton to the position of U.S. President, that there will be a substantial governmental review of military policies concerning gays and lesbians, possibly resulting in a decision to modify or even rescind them. Until some definitive action is taken at the federal level, however, gays and lesbians will have to rely increasingly on sympathetic state and local policymakers …

Law And Literature: Representing Lesbians, Anne B. Goldstein Jan 1992

Law And Literature: Representing Lesbians, Anne B. Goldstein

Faculty Scholarship

What is involved in representing a lesbian in law or in literature?

That is, lawyers can learn how to represent lesbian clients better by studying books with lesbian characters.


Tales Of Two Cities: Aids And The Legal Recognition Of Domestic Partnerships In San Francisco And New York, David L. Chambers Jan 1992

Tales Of Two Cities: Aids And The Legal Recognition Of Domestic Partnerships In San Francisco And New York, David L. Chambers

Articles

Here are two stories. They are of the quite different ways that domestic partnerships of lesbian and gay couples have come to be recognized, for some purposes, in San Francisco and New York City. I tell the stories for their own sake, but with a particular focus on the role that AIDS played in the political process in each city.
