Complexity In Property, Meredith M. Render 2013 University of Tennessee College of Law

Complexity In Property, Meredith M. Render

Tennessee Law Review

This Article illuminates the largely misunderstood relationship between complexity and the regulation of property interests. Specifically, the Article presents the "complexity thesis" -a novel explanatory account of the principle of numerus clausus. The principle of numerus clausus is an ancient common law rule that prohibits the customization of property interests. The complexity thesis holds that the primary function of numerus clausus is to prevent the proliferation of highly idiosyncratic property interests. In so doing, numerus clausus provides a bulkhead against the overwhelming complexity that would ensue if customized property interests were permitted.

For the last fifteen years, numerus clausus has …

Aligning Law And Forum: The Home Court Advantage, Verity Winship 2013 University of Tennessee College of Law

Aligning Law And Forum: The Home Court Advantage, Verity Winship

Tennessee Law Review

When courts and legislatures choose where to resolve a dispute, they often must consider whether questions of law should be decided in the "home" court. When should, for instance, Delaware state courts decide questions of Delaware state law? The choice between the home forum and others is particularly stark in corporate law, where out-of-state courts must often apply the law of the state of incorporation. Litigation over corporate deals increasingly takes place in multiple, competing jurisdictions, presenting a clear choice between resolution in the home court or out of state. Beyond corporate law, the question arises any time legislatures must …


Bargaining Practices: Negotiating The Kampala Compromise For The International Criminal Court, Noah Weisbord 2013 Florida International University College of Law

Bargaining Practices: Negotiating The Kampala Compromise For The International Criminal Court, Noah Weisbord

Faculty Publications

At the International Criminal Court's (ICC) Review Conference in 2010, the ICC's Assembly of States Parties (ASP) agreed upon a definition of the crime of aggression, jurisdictional conditions, and a mechanism for its entry into force (the "Kampala Compromise"). These amendments give the ICC jurisdiction to prosecute political and military leaders of states for planning, preparing, initiating, or executing illegal wars, beginning as early as January 2017.

This article explains the bargaining practices of the diplomats that gave rise to this historic development in international law. This article argues that the international-practices framework, as currently conceived, does not adequately capture …


The Mens Rea Of The Crime Of Aggression, Noah Weisbord 2013 Florida International University College of Law

The Mens Rea Of The Crime Of Aggression, Noah Weisbord

Faculty Publications

This article, written in commemoration of the tenth anniversary of the International Criminal Court (ICC), explores the mens rea of the crime of aggression. The definition and jurisdictional conditions of the crime of aggression was recently incorporated into the ICC’s Rome Statute, thereby reviving a crime used during the Nuremberg trials to prosecute Nazi leaders after World War II. Mens rea is an important, even central, consideration when judging whether a defendant has satisfied all of the elements of the crime of aggression.

The starting point for this exploration of the mens rea of the crime of aggression is its …
