Clapper V. Amnesty International: Two Or Three Competing Philosophies Of Standing Law?, Bradford C. Mank 2014 University of Tennessee College of Law

Clapper V. Amnesty International: Two Or Three Competing Philosophies Of Standing Law?, Bradford C. Mank

Tennessee Law Review

In its 2013 decision Clapper v. Amnesty International, the United States Supreme Court invoked separation-of-powers principles by holding that public interest groups alleging that the Government was spying on their foreign clients failed to demonstrate Article III standing because they could not prove that the future surveillance injury that they purportedly feared was "certainly impending." Justice Breyer's dissenting opinion argued that "commonsense" suggested that the Government was spying on the plaintiffs' foreign clients and proposed a "reasonable" or "high" probability standing test. Implicitly, the Clapper decision also presented a third approach to standing decisions. In footnote 5 of the opinion, …

Buying The American Dream: Using Immigration Law To Bolster The Housing Market, Kit Johnson 2014 University of Tennessee College of Law

Buying The American Dream: Using Immigration Law To Bolster The Housing Market, Kit Johnson

Tennessee Law Review

Escaping notice in debate about immigration reform is a proposal that would give residency visas to foreign nationals on the condition that they buy an expensive home. Proponents see visas as a simple way to shore up the U.S. housing market. Yet complications abound. This Article scrutinizes the history, logic, economics, and morals of the proposed homebuyer visa, as well as its intersection with state laws that restrict foreign ownership of land.

Could Windsor Revive Federalism? The States' Right To Protect Citizens Following Doma's Demise, Mark A. Fulks, Ronald S. Range III 2014 University of Tennessee College of Law

Could Windsor Revive Federalism? The States' Right To Protect Citizens Following Doma's Demise, Mark A. Fulks, Ronald S. Range Iii

Tennessee Law Review

The United States Supreme Court's decision in United States v. Windsor was perhaps the most anticipated decision of the October 2012 Term. By invalidating the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), the Court settled one hotly debated issue. But the Court's rationale gives rise to a litany of questions. Under the rubric of the Fifth Amendment, the Court invalidated a federal statute that denied certain citizens the right to liberty, which was rooted in the state's definition of marriage, and the equal dignity the state sought to protect. In doing so, the Court announced a new test to determine where supreme …

The 1st Amendment, 2nd Amendment, And 3d Printed Guns, Josh Blackman 2014 University of Tennessee College of Law

The 1st Amendment, 2nd Amendment, And 3d Printed Guns, Josh Blackman

Tennessee Law Review

We are standing at the dawn of the next great industrial revolution. With 3D printers people can print an infinite number of personalized and customized "things." However, one manifestation of this bold new technology threatens to cast a specter on innovation: 3D printed guns. This Article explores how efforts to regulate, or even ban 3D guns, must satisfy constitutional scrutiny under both the First and Second Amendments.

The Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms includes a subsidiary right to acquire arms-what else are you going to keep and bear-which covers both the buyer, and seller in the transaction. …

Constitutional Trespass, Laurent Sacharoff 2014 University of Tennessee College of Law

Constitutional Trespass, Laurent Sacharoff

Tennessee Law Review

The Supreme Court has recently created a trespass test for Fourth Amendment searches without explaining what type of trespass it envisions-one based on the common law of 1791, on the specific trespass law of the state where the search occurred, or on some other trespass principles. Indeed Florida v. Jardines, decided in 2013, raises the question whether the Court has created a trespass test at all, a seeming turnabout that largely recapitulates the Court's 125- year history of confusion in which it has embraced, rejected, or simply ignored trespass as a test from era to era or even year to …

Tennessee Law Review

"But the guilty person is only one of the targets of punishment. For punishment is directed above all at others, at all the potentially guilty."
