“When Did African Americans Get The Right To Vote In Georgia?”, Marc T. Treadwell
Mercer Law Review
Most know that the post‑Civil War Fifteenth Amendment guaranteed citizens of all races, or at least male citizens of all races, the right to vote. But notwithstanding the keen interest today in voting rights and alleged voter suppression and that well-known Fifteenth Amendment, few know that for decades African Americans were banned outright from voting in primary elections that determined state and local leaders in many Southern states. In the post‑Reconstruction South, the Democratic Party controlled every facet of state politics and government. The Party’s whites‑only primary elections ineluctably determined the outcome of general elections. The party did not allow …

To Heck And Back: The Eleventh Circuit Clarifies How Pro Se Litigants Can Avoid Incognizable Excessive Force Claims In Hall V. Merola, Cameron Obioha
Mercer Law Review
At the very beginning of the opinion, the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit expressed that this was “one Heck of an appeal.” Patrick Valencia, Wendall Hall’s appointed lawyer on appeal, seemed to think so, too. Hall represented himself pro sefor years while incarcerated in Florida’s state prison system, and knew his case “backwards, forwards, sideways, upwards, downwards, in the dark.” Nonetheless, after he filed the initial briefs for his own appeal, the Eleventh Circuit determined it best for Hall to take second chair. When asked about his appointment to represent Hall, Valencia stated that “[he] …

The Poison Drips Through: Scotus Thins Anti-Discrimination Rights In Wake Of Legislative Attacks On The Lgbtq+ Community, Emma Blue
Mercer Law Review
Anti‑LGBTQ+ legislation has surged to a record high through state legislatures with more than 500 bills introduced and nearly 100 laws signed in 2023 alone. The overwhelming rise in targeted legislation has led the Human Rights Campaign, the largest LGBTQ+ civil rights organization in the United States, to officially declare a state of emergency for the LGBTQ+ community for the first time. The legislative attacks have branched across the nation, from curriculum to performance, seeking to ban books from schools and libraries, as well as banning public drag shows. The First Amendment of the United States Constitution has been turned …

Staff Matters: How To Address Derogatory Comments Among Staff Members, Jodi Schafer Sphr, Shrm-Scp
The Journal of the Michigan Dental Association
Addressing derogatory comments among staff members requires a systematic approach. Document the incident, meet individually with each employee, and assess their reactions. Responses may vary from denial to remorse. Tailor disciplinary action based on their accountability and alignment with office values. Consider potential legal ramifications and seek HR or legal guidance if needed. Regardless, swift action is essential to maintain a respectful workplace environment.

When Fines Don't Go Far Enough: The Failure Of Prison Settlements And Proposals For More Effective Enforcement Methods, Tori Collins
Maine Law Review
The Eighth Amendment’s Punishments Clause provides the basis on which prisoners may bring suit alleging unconstitutional conditions of confinement. Only a small number of these suits are successful. The suits that do survive typically end in a settlement in which prison authorities agree to address the unconstitutional conditions. However, settlements such as these are easily flouted for two primary reasons: prison authorities are not personally held liable when settlements are broken, and prisoners largely lack the political and practical leverage to self-advocate beyond the courtroom. Because of this, unconstitutional prison conditions may linger for years after prison authorities have agreed …
