Trading Your Health: Assessing The Need For Domestic Regulation Of Telemedicine And Ability To Conform To U.S. Trade Agreements, Marilyn L. Higdon 2018 Loyola University Chicago, School of Law

Trading Your Health: Assessing The Need For Domestic Regulation Of Telemedicine And Ability To Conform To U.S. Trade Agreements, Marilyn L. Higdon

Loyola Consumer Law Review

International telemedicine services have existed virtually outside the U.S. regulatory matrix for over a decade. This lack of regulation has opened the door for dangerous and possibly lifethreatening situations to arise, leaving little to no available recourse for injured consumers. Regulation is often cast as an antonym of liberalization and a dirty word under the current political and economic zeitgeist. Despite this common misconception, regulation can be imposed without threatening liberalized trade or breaching current free-trade agreements. All current trade agreements, by nature, seek to increase liberalization and globalization by reducing barriers to trade. However, lack of commitment, provisions allowing …

Fintech: Antidote To Rent-Seeking?, Jeremy Kidd 2018 Mercer University School of Law

Fintech: Antidote To Rent-Seeking?, Jeremy Kidd

Articles

Fintech is a reality of our modern society, and will likely become even more so in the future. Peer-to-peer lending, cybercurrencies, smart contracts, algorithmic lending, and more, have required adaptation by consumers and producers of financial services. Our modes of doing business will continue to be challenged and changed by these and other Fintech innovations, almost certainly expanding beyond merely “promot[ing] financial inclusion, expand[ing] access to capital for individuals and small businesses, and more broadly reshap[ing] how society interacts with financial services.” By reducing transaction costs, advancing technology opens the doors to innovations the likes of which we might not …

Learning From Law Students: How Phds Might Seek Legal Remedy In The Face Of Widespread Unemployment, Emily Grothoff 2018 Indiana University

Learning From Law Students: How Phds Might Seek Legal Remedy In The Face Of Widespread Unemployment, Emily Grothoff

Indiana Law Journal

This Note examines overproduction and underemployment problems facing the academic market and PhD graduates9 from a legal perspective. Part I will briefly review key legal takeaways from several distinctive cases that law school graduates brought against their almae matres regarding poor employability. Part II then describes the particularities of the “PhD problem” and how it compares and contrasts with the problem that J.D. holders recently faced. Finally, Part III will examine what legal remedies disenfranchised PhDs might pursue and whether such remedies could—and should—be sought in the courts.

Gag Clauses And The Right To Gripe: The Consumer Review Fairness Act Of 2016 & State Efforts To Protect Online Reviews From Contractual Censorship, Clay Calvert 2018 University of Florida Levin College of Law

Gag Clauses And The Right To Gripe: The Consumer Review Fairness Act Of 2016 & State Efforts To Protect Online Reviews From Contractual Censorship, Clay Calvert

UF Law Faculty Publications

This article examines new legislation, including the federal Consumer Review Fairness Act, signed into law in December 2016, targeting non-disparagement clauses in consumer contracts. Such “gag clauses” typically prohibit or punish the posting of negative reviews of businesses on websites, such as Yelp and TripAdvisor. This article asserts that state and federal statutes provide the best means, from a pro-free-expression perspective, of attacking such clauses, given the disturbingly real possibility that the First Amendment has no bearing on contractual obligations between private parties.

Gender, Race & The Inadequate Regulation Of Cosmetics, Marie C. Boyd 2018 University of South Carolina - Columbia

Gender, Race & The Inadequate Regulation Of Cosmetics, Marie C. Boyd

Faculty Publications

Scholars and other commentators have identified failures in the regulation of cosmetics-which depends heavily on voluntary industry self- regulation-and called for more stringent regulation of these products. Yet these calls have largely neglected an important dimension of the problem: the current laissez-faire approach to the regulation of cosmetics disproportionally places women, and particularly women who are members of other excluded groups, at risk. This Article examines federal cosmetics law and regulation through a feminist lens. It argues that cosmetics law and regulation have lagged behind that of the other major product categories regulated by the Food and Drug Administration under …
