Are Literary Agents (Really) Fiduciaries?, Jacqueline B. Lipton
Tennessee Law Review
2018 was a big year for "bad agents" in the publishing world. In July, children's literature agent Danielle Smith was exposed for lying to her clients about submissions and publication offers. In December, major literary agency Donadio & Olson, which represented a number of bestselling authors, including Chuck Palahniuk (Fight Club), filed for bankruptcy in the wake of an accounting scandal involving their bookkeeper, Darin Webb. Webb had embezzled over $3 million of client funds. Around the same time, Australian literary agent Selwa Anthony lost a battle in the New South Wales Supreme Court involving royalties she owed to her …

Wannacry, Ransomware, And The Emerging Threat To Corporations, Lawrence J. Trautman, Peter C. Ormerod
Tennessee Law Review
The WannaCry ransomware attack began on May 12, 2017, and is unprecedented in scale-quickly impacting nearly a quarter-million computers in over 150 countries. The WannaCry virus exploits a vulnerability to Microsoft Windows that was originally developed by the U.S. National Security Agency and operates by encrypting a victim's data and demanding payment of a ransom in exchange for data recovery. Security experts have indicated that a North Korea linked group of hackers-who have also been implicated in cyberattacks against Sony Pictures in 2014, the Bangladeshi Central Bank in 2016, and Polish banks in February 2017-is behind the attack.

Sovereign Speech In Troubled Times: Prosecutorial Statements As Extrajudicial Admissions, Amir Shachmurove
Tennessee Law Review
On its face, Federal Rule of Evidence 801(d)(2) is elegantly simple. Distinguishing between neither private persons nor public entities, it renders admissible out-of-court statements made by an agent "authorized to make a statement on the subject" and by an agent or employee "on a matter within the scope of. . . [its] relationship" to the party per subparagraph (C) and (D), respectively. More colloquially, Evidence Rule 801(d)(2)(C) permits the introduction of an authorized representative's statements into a case's evidentiary record, and Evidence Rule 801(d)(2)(D) does the same for statements uttered by certain agents and employees. History partly vindicated the former, …

Subdivision And Conserved Farmland,

Subdivision And Conserved Farmland, Jess R. Phelps
Tennessee Law Review
Limiting subdivision of conserved farmland is often a critical component of an agricultural conservation easement project's design. These restrictions are critical for ensuring that a protected farm remains of sufficient size and scale to continue to be viable for agricultural use. This form of restriction, however, is often undervalued by courts reviewing agricultural conservation easements as being secondary or incidental to the agricultural conservation easement's stated goal of preventing this land from being developed or converted to non-agricultural use. The purpose of this Article is to place subdivision restrictions in their appropriate context and to consider options for increasing their …

The Federal Circuit As An Institution, Ryan G. Vacca
Law Faculty Scholarship
The Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit is a unique institution. Unlike other circuit courts, the Federal Circuit’s jurisdiction is bound by subject area rather than geography, and it was created to address a unique set of problems specific to patent law. These characteristics have affected its institutional development and made the court one of the most frequently studied appellate courts. This chapter examines this development and describes the evolving qualities that have helped the Federal Circuit distinguish itself, for better or worse, as an institution.
This chapter begins with an overview of the concerns existing before creation of …

Punishment And Its Limits, Debra Parkes

The nearly three decades in which Beverley McLachlin was a member of the Supreme Court, including as Chief Justice, witnessed a number of shifts in Canadian penal policy and in the reach and impact of criminal law. During the Harper decade (2006 to 2015) in which the federal Conservatives enjoyed a majority government led by Prime Minister Stephen Harper, criminal justice policy took a turn toward the punitive. The federal government tore a page out of the American legislative handbook and sought to “govern through crime”, albeit in a more restrained Canadian style.
