Solving The Procedural Puzzles Of The Texas Heartbeat Act And Its Imitators: New York Times V. Sullivan As Historical Analogue, Charles W. "Rocky" Rhodes, Howard M. Wasserman 2022 University of Missouri School of Law

Solving The Procedural Puzzles Of The Texas Heartbeat Act And Its Imitators: New York Times V. Sullivan As Historical Analogue, Charles W. "Rocky" Rhodes, Howard M. Wasserman

Faculty Publications

The Texas Heartbeat Act (S.B. 8) prohibits abortions following detection of a fetal heartbeat while delegating exclusive enforcement through private civil actions brought by “any person,” regardless of injury, for statutory damages of a minimum of $10,000 per prohibited abortion. Texas sought to impose costly litigation and potentially crippling liability on reproductive health providers and rights advocates, with the hope of stopping abortion in the state. Prior to Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization overruling Roe v. Wade and eliminating constitutional protection for abortion, the law represented a unique threat to reproductive freedom. But states are spreading S.B. 8’s exclusive …


Territorial Paternalism, Anthony M. Ciolli 2022 Mississippi Christian University School of Law

Territorial Paternalism, Anthony M. Ciolli

MC Law Review

This Article strives to deconstruct and dismantle the most prominent misconceptions and outright lies being used to justify the continued withholding of constitutional rights and liberties from American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Part II addresses the claim that territories are not self- governing or are otherwise effectively ruled from Washington, D.C., by a Congress that is completely unresponsive to any of their concerns. Part III examines the portrayal of the territories as geographically isolated, crumbling, lacking safe drinking water, and otherwise substantially underdeveloped compared to the mainland United States. Finally, Part …


More Than Fifty Years After The Enactment Of Federal Laws Forbidding Discrimination In Pay, The Wage Disparity Based On Sex Continues: Focusing On The Circuit Courts’ Differing Interpretations Of “Factors Other Than Sex”, Audrey K. Hurt 2022 Mississippi College School of Law

More Than Fifty Years After The Enactment Of Federal Laws Forbidding Discrimination In Pay, The Wage Disparity Based On Sex Continues: Focusing On The Circuit Courts’ Differing Interpretations Of “Factors Other Than Sex”, Audrey K. Hurt

MC Law Review

The broad scope of this fourth affirmative defense available to employers under the EPA and Title VII allows for inconsistency in its interpretation and is responsible, at least in part, for the continued existence of wage discrimination. Without a prescribed means of application— specifically, a stricter means of application—employers are more readily absolved from liability under the FOTS defense. The best solution to this problem is for Congress to adopt a more stringent approach to the FOTS defense under the Equal Pay Act of 1963—an approach which would apply to Title VII, as well. However, with little headway being made …


Don't Say Gay: The Government's Silence And The Equal Protection Clause, Clifford Rosky 2022 S.J. Quinney College of Law, University of Utah

Don't Say Gay: The Government's Silence And The Equal Protection Clause, Clifford Rosky

Utah Law Faculty Scholarship

This paper will argue that the LGBT movement has played, and will continue to play, a significant role in developing doctrines that subject government speech to the requirements of the Equal Protection Clause. In particular, the paper will examine how this doctrine is being developed in litigation around anti-LGBT curriculum laws—statutes that prohibit or restrict the discussion of LGBT people and topics in public schools. It argues that this litigation demonstrates how the Equal Protection Clause can be violated by the government’s silence, as well as the government’s speech. In addition, it explains why the Don’t Say Gay Laws recently …
