The Muted Rise Of The Silent Witness Rule In National Security Litigation: The Eastern District Of Virginia's Answer To The Fight Over Classified Information At Trial,

The Muted Rise Of The Silent Witness Rule In National Security Litigation: The Eastern District Of Virginia's Answer To The Fight Over Classified Information At Trial, Jonathan M. Lamb
Pepperdine Law Review
The state secrets problem is emblematic of a judicial issue which is not confined to the civil cases in which the privilege is asserted - the tension between the government's interest in protecting classified information and society's interest in justice by resolution on the merits. The United States must be allowed to prosecute terrorists, conspirators, and enemies by using classified information as evidence; but how may the government act as a civil defendant without invoking the state secrets privilege to dismiss actions before trial (or pre-discovery)? The answer might be a little known evidentiary doctrine called the silent witness rule. …

Facts: The subject of military service for hareidi (ultra-Orthodox), full-time yeshiva (rabbinical seminary) students has been at the center of public debate in Israel since the founding of the state, when the first Defense Minister, David Ben Gurion, decided to defer their conscription. The arrangement was significantly expanded over the years, and its underlying reasons also changed. Numerous attempts were made to challenge the legality and constitutionality of the deferment arrangement in the Supreme Court. The first petitions were denied for lack of standing and non-justiciability In the 1986 Ressler case [3], the Court held that the petitioner had standing, …

The Past And Future Of Deinstitutionalization Litigation,

University of Michigan Law School
The Past And Future Of Deinstitutionalization Litigation, Samuel R. Bagenstos
Law & Economics Working Papers
Two conflicting stories have consumed the academic debate regarding the impact of deinstitutionalization litigation. The first, which has risen almost to the level of conventional wisdom, is that deinstitutionalization was a disaster. The second story does not deny that the results of deinstitutionalization have in many cases been disappointing. But it challenges the suggestion that deinstitutionalization has uniformly been unsuccessful, as well as the causal link critics seek to draw with the growth of the homeless population. This dispute is not simply a matter of historical interest. The Supreme Court’s 1999 decision in Olmstead v. L.C., which held that unjustified …
