From The Schoolhouse To The Poorhouse: The Credit Card Act's Failure To Adequately Protect Young Consumers, Eboni S. Nelson
Villanova Law Review (1956 - )
The article discusses the Credit Card Act of 2009 specifically its provisions aiming to protect college-aged consumers. The author cites the students' high debt figures and discusses the negative impact on their academic, personal and future professional lives. He identifies loopholes that have enabled circumventions and deliberates on proposals which include increases in age and ability-to-pay requirements, limits to increasing credit limits and imposition of usury or interest rate caps.

Americans have access to more health-related information today than ever before. Consumers are bombarded with medical messages and flooded with health-based claims. Television and magazine advertisements inform consumers about everything from insomnia and erectile dysfunction to the importance of dietary fiber and the allegedly wondrous properties of pomegranates. Product labels and promotions provide more food for thought about fat, sodium, and carbohydrates; nutritional supplement makers further supplement consumer nutritional information. Were that not enough, the internet provides access to still more data (and opinion), much of it of questionable provenance and reliability.

Whoops - The Imminent Reconciliation Of U.S. Securities Laws With International Comity After Morrison V. National Australia Bank And The Drafting Error In The Dodd-Frank Act, Andrew Rocks
Villanova Law Review (1956 - )
The article contends that the Dodd-Frank Act and the case, Morrison v. National Australia Bank, restrict the extraterritorial reach of U.S. fraud laws to private rights of action involving domestic transactions of U.S. securities. The author notes that the U.S. legal jurisdiction is governed by the policy of minimal interference and respect for sovereignties and by the principle of comity. He states that this position will help establish a cooperative regulatory effort across global markets.

Anticompetitive Regulation In The Payment Card Industry,

Columbia Law School
Anticompetitive Regulation In The Payment Card Industry, Ronald J. Mann
Faculty Scholarship
The payment card industry in the United States has come under increasing scrutiny in recent years. The Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005 reflects a high-water mark of congressional influence for the industry, altering bankruptcy procedures largely for the benefit of card issuers. Since that point, Congress has turned repeatedly to rein in perceived abuses in the industry. The most substantial and direct response to the perception of abuse is the Credit Card Accountability Responsibility and Disclosure Act of 2009. That statute was focused directly on the card industry and outlawed a wide variety of industry practices. …
