Constructing A Clinic, Philip G. Schrag

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

The author addresses some basic structural questions that the clinic's supervisor or supervisors might think about when beginning to design or renovate a program. These include the goals of the proposed clinic; the number and qualifications of its teaching and support staff; the desired relationships among staff members; the subject matter of the clinic's cases; the duration of the clinic, the amount of course credit that students should receive for taking it, and the caseload per student; the grading system; the relationships between the students and the tribunals or other fora in which they will be practicing; how the clinic …

Uncharted Leadership : A Study Of Leadership In The Judicial Branch, Kevin Donnelly

Honors Theses

This paper is the final product of a research oriented project in which I studied leadership within the federal judicial system, specifically the Supreme Court of the United States. This project was an in depth study of the amount, style, and effect of Leadership in the Judicial branch. Through this study I hoped to explore a major component of government which has somehow been ignored when studying leadership at the national level.

Privacy Rights, Public Policy, And The Employment Relationship, Pauline Kim

Scholarship@WashULaw

Two well-established common law doctrines increasingly are coming into conflict. The first protects individuals from unreasonable intrusions on their privacy. The second authorizes an employer to fire its employees at will, unless a clear agreement exists to the contrary. As employees have begun to assert their common law right of privacy' in the workplace, their claims have collided headlong with the doctrine of employment at will.

Shopping For A Venue: The Need For More Limits On Choice, Kimberly Jade Norwood

Scholarship@WashULaw

In an earlier article, Professor Norwood questioned the wisdom of the Supreme Court's decision in Ferens v. John Deere Co., which allows plaintiffs to double forum-shop, i.e., to file a lawsuit in one jurisdiction and then, while retaining the advantages of that jurisdiction's laws, to transfer the lawsuit to the geographically preferred jurisdiction. There, Professor Norwood assumed that having choices about where to file lawsuits was a necessary component of America's judicial system. Below, however, Professor Norwood explores that assumption and concludes that parties should not have the unrestricted choices seemingly provided by most venue laws.

An Empirical Test Of The Rational Actor Theory Of Litigation, Donald R. Songer, Charles M. Cameron, Jeffrey A. Segal

Faculty Publications

This article examines the decisions of litigants in criminal cases to appeal decisions from the U.S. Courts of Appeals to the U.S. Supreme Court. Using a random sample of search and seizure cases from 1962 through 1990 and a measure of the likelihood that the appeals court decision will be reversed if cert is granted, we demonstrate that litigants behave as if they rationally consider costs and benefits in their decisions to appeal. Given the extraordinary number of cases decided by lower federal courts vis-g-vis the number of cases the Supreme Court can decide, we argue that such behavior is …
