Crossing The Toll Bridge: American Pipe And The Fate Of State Law Claims After Class Certification Denial In Federal Court, Alexander Schnur

Fordham Law Review

Rule 23(c)(1)(A) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCP) provides that, “At an early practicable time after a person sues . . . as a class representative, the court must determine by order whether to certify the action as a class action.” In American Pipe & Construction Co. v. Utah, the U.S. Supreme Court addressed the interplay of this FRCP 23(c)(1)(A) class certification decision and statutes of limitations, holding that the commencement of a putative class action suspends the statute of limitations for putative class members while class certification is pending. Over the last fifty years, the American …

Haruskan Debitur Mengatakan "Ya"? Menyoal Persetujuan Debitur Dalam Pengalihan Piutang Oleh Bank, Ihsanuddin Nursyie

Jurnal Hukum & Pembangunan

Financial Services Authority Regulation No. 26 of 2024 concerning the Expansion of Banking Business Activities requires the inclusion of an assignment of receivables clause in credit agreements and, where such a clause is not provided, requires the debtor’s consent before the assignment is carried out. This article analyzes the appropriateness of debtor consent as a protection instrument in the assignment of receivables through cessie. This research employs a doctrinal legal method by analyzing legislation, legal doctrines, and relevant literature. The findings indicate that debtor consent is not an inherent requirement of cessie, while the risks to debtor protection are more …

Mengenal Hcch 1970 Taking Evidence Abroad Convention, Priskila Pratita Penasthika

Jurnal Hukum & Pembangunan

Since mid-2023, the Supreme Court of the Republic of Indonesia has prioritised the strengthening and harmonisation of Indonesian civil procedural law to better align with international practices and standards. This initiative seeks to enhance the competitiveness of Indonesian judicial institutions in resolving commercial disputes through acceding to relevant private international law instruments. The HCCH 1970 Evidence Convention is among the key private international law instruments identified by the Supreme Court as a priority for Indonesia's accession. Nonetheless, academic literature in the Indonesian language on private international law instruments, particularly those issued by the Hague Conference on Private International Law (HCCH), …

The dual system model in the implementation of credit information in Indonesia makes the relationship between the Financial Services Authority (OJK) as a public credit registry and the Credit Information Management Institution (LPIP) as a private credit bureau interesting to observe. In particular, the relationship is related to access to the Financial Information Service System (SLIK), which is one of the data sources used by LPIP in carrying out its activities. This study aims to examine the implication of the principle of reciprocity in the exchange of credit information through SLIK, as well as the fairness aspect of the imposition …

Dari Penafsiran Ke Konstruksi Konstitusi: Evolusi Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi Tentang Keserentakan Pemilihan Umum, Khairul Fahmi, Desip Trinanda

Jurnal Hukum & Pembangunan

Abstract

The Constitutional Court's decisions regarding election simultaneity demonstrate a highly progressive development in constitutional reasoning. The Constitutional Court has issued at least three decisions related to the election simultaneity model: Decision Number 14/PUU-XI/2013, Decision Number 55/PUU-XVII/2019, and Decision Number 135/PUU-XXII/2024. So far, studies of these decisions have tended to be placed within the framework of constitutional interpretation. However, the Constitutional Court's stance in Decision Number 135/PUU-XXII/2024 goes beyond merely interpreting the constitution to also construct a constitutional provision on election simultaneity by separating national and local elections. Therefore, the focus of this article is the shift in the Constitutional …

Getting Money Out Of Politics By Putting Money Into Politics: A Few Modest Proposals To Reform Seattle’S Democracy Voucher Program, Decker O’Donnell

Seattle University Law Review

Seattle’s Democracy Voucher Program offers an unconventional response to the growing influence of money in American elections: rather than restricting political spending, it seeks to amplify the participation of ordinary voters by providing publicly funded vouchers that residents may assign to participating candidates. This Article examines the program’s development, operation, and constitutional foundation within the modern campaign-finance framework established by Buckley v. Valeo and subsequent Supreme Court decisions. It argues that democracy vouchers provide a constitutionally viable means of broadening participation in campaign financing while mitigating the influence of wealthy donors. The Article identifies two weaknesses in the current system: …

Legal Malpractice In Washington: Use Of The Rules Of Professional Conduct, Angelo Tadrous

Seattle University Law Review

Legal malpractice claims are difficult to prove. They are difficult to prove because many jurisdictions require that a plaintiff prove that, but for the lawyer’s misconduct, the client would have fared better. Thus, in a malpractice suit, a plaintiff must try a case within a case. Despite this difficulty, many jurisdictions prohibit the use of the Rules of Professional Conduct when litigating a malpractice case. Washington State is one of these jurisdictions. The Washington Supreme Court held in Hizey v. Carpenter that the Rules of Professional Conduct may not be referred to during trial. This Note argues that this prohibition …

Converting Buildings Is Hard: Why Seattle’S Municipal Government Should Streamline Commercial-To-Residential Conversions, Tyler M. King

Seattle University Law Review

The conversion of commercial buildings into housing is a promising solution to the growing housing crisis in many urban areas. However, despite its potential benefits, the process of repurposing commercial spaces is often stymied by complex zoning codes, high conversion costs, and bureaucratic hurdles. This Article argues that the local and state governments in Seattle should adopt more streamlined policies and offer greater incentives to developers to facilitate these conversions. By reforming zoning regulations and providing targeted financial support, municipalities can reduce the barriers to conversion and unlock the potential of underutilized commercial properties. This article examines the legal and …

Who Decides The Dead? Interpreting Washington’S Disposition Of Remains Statute, Wyatt Young

Seattle University Law Review

Washington’s disposition-of-remains statute, RCW 68.50.160, is designed to honor a decedent’s expressed wishes regarding the control and disposition of their body after death. Yet recent litigation reveals a critical gap between the statute’s intent-centered design and its practical enforceability. In Larotonda v. Blackburn, a trial court acknowledged that irreparable harm would occur if a decedent’s burial wishes were ignored but nonetheless denied relief on the grounds that the individual designated to carry out those wishes lacked standing. The result was a legal paradox: a statute that recognizes decedent autonomy in theory but withholds any meaningful mechanism for its enforcement …
