Michigan's Teacher Certification Requirement As Applied To Religiously Motivated Home Schools, Donald D. Dorman

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

This Note defends the thesis that the teacher-certification requirement of Michigan's compulsory attendance statute is unconstitutional as applied to people who, for sincere religious reasons, believe they must teach their children at home. Michigan courts have incorrectly applied a rational-basis test in regulating religiously motivated home schools, rather than the strict scrutiny required by the U.S. Supreme Court for cases involving both the free exercise of religion and parents' interest in directing their children's education.

After The Miracle: A History And Analysis Of The Massachusetts Fiscal Crisis: Being A Drama In Five Acts, With An Implied Invitation To The Reader To Participate In The Crafting Of The Final Act, Joseph S. Slavet, Raymond G. Torto, Edmund Beard, Louis C. Dinatale

McCormack Graduate School General Publications (active until 2013)

"After the Miracle" documents the factors that have shaped the recent political debate in Massachusetts and are likely to determine continuing economic and fiscal conditions in Massachusetts in the near future. The paper indicates that 1990 may begin a decade of real limits for Massachusetts. The economy has stagnated and the next two years will be a period of deep economic uncertainty. It is also clear that a resurgence, like that of the boom period of the eighties, is unlikely to be replicated.

The 1980's was a period when state-local spending in Massachusetts, propelled by the infusion of double-digit tax …

Aids And The Perception Of Aids As Handicaps Under Florida Law, Robert Craig Waters

Florida State University Law Review

Until 1989, many questions remained unanswered about the extent of protection afforded by Florida's numerous handicap discrimination laws for those with symptomless infection of the AIDS virus or those perceived as having such an infection. The 1989 Florida Legislature settled these questions by declaring that having the infection and being perceived as infected fall within the protection of these statutes. As a rationale, the Legislature adopted an express statement of intent that found all forms of AIDS-related discrimination irrational, scientifically unfounded, and detrimental to society as a whole. This Article explores the sweeping implications of these legislative determinations.

Contract Law/Sovereign Immunity-THE DEMISE OF SOVEREIGN IMMUNITY IN THE CONTRACTUAL BATTLE AGAINST STATE AGENCIES

Rights And Duties Of Vendors And Government Agencies Under Florida's New Public Contracting Law, David L. Powell

Florida State University Law Review

Until recently, vendors convicted of "bid-rigging," crimes could continue to receive public contracts with state and local agencies. In 1989, the Legislature enacted legislation to exclude convicted vendors from the public procurement process. In this Article, the author examines how the standards and procedures of the new law safeguard the public treasury while protecting vendors from unfair interference in their transactions with state and local agencies.

Protecting Nonshareholder Interests In The Market For Corporate Control: A Role For State Takeover Statutes, Frank J. Garcia

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

Part I of this Note describes a phenomenon of modern corporate activity first identified over fifty years ago as the "separation of ownership and control." This separation gives rise to the need for a governing corporate norm; recognizing the normative aspect of this phenomenon has direct implications for the takeover debate.

Part II analyzes the problem of a target board's fiduciary duty as the modern version of the fundamental normative issue of corporate law. It argues that the norm of shareholder wealth maximization, assumed as the starting point by those most in favor of an active and minimally regulated control …

Family Support Of The Disabled: A Legislative Proposal To Create Incentives To Support Disabled Family Members, Judith G. Mcmullen

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

Several authorities in the field of estate planning have examined in great detail the options currently available to the parents of disabled children. The options are limited. Ideally, laws should address the concerns of the families of disabled children while providing those families with the incentive to help bear the financial costs of providing for their children. New legislation is needed to achieve this dual objective. This legislation must establish a method by which parents can improve meaningfully the quality of a surviving disabled child's life without substantially increasing the social cost of supporting that disabled child. This Article proposes …

Do Jurors Understand Criminal Jury Instructions? Analyzing The Results Of The Michigan Juror Comprehension Project, Geoffrey P. Kramer, Dorean M. Koenig

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

The Juror Comprehension Project ("the Project") sought to determine whether jurors understand judicial instructions. This Article reports the results of an empirical study growing out of that Project. The Project investigated how well 600 actual jurors in Michigan understood criminal jury instructions in actual trials. Part I describes the history of the study and explains the procedures and materials used in the study. Part II presents the results of the study, first analyzing juror comprehension of selected concepts, then discussing general factors that influence juror comprehension. Part III concludes that the results show a mixed juror understanding of complex judicial …
