Beyond Problem-Solving Courts, Erin R. Collins

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

Problem-solving courts were borne out of well-meaning experimentalist spirit, a spirit that is very much in line with the vision of this Symposium on the multi-door criminal courthouse. These courts, which include drug courts, mental health courts, veterans' courts, and many other specialized criminal courts, were created as a way to close one door to the criminal courthouse-the so-called "revolving door" that appeared to bring some people accused of crimes back into court as soon as they exited. Problem-solving court judges sought to open a different door for some of those who entered their courtrooms, a door that they hoped …

Corporate Governance And Gender Equality: A Study Of Comply-Or-Explain Disclosure Regulation, Aaron A. Dhir, Sarah Kaplan, Maria Arabella Robles

Seattle University Law Review

In 2020, the Nasdaq Stock Market filed a proposal with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission seeking permission to adopt a board diversity-related disclosure requirement for its listed companies. In 2021, the SEC approved the proposal, thus entrenching Nasdaq’s position as the most significant stock exchange to date to mandate listing rules that reflect the intention of diversifying corporate boardrooms. Nasdaq’s movement into the diversity space is not the first attempt to address homogeneous boards in the U.S. In 2009, the SEC adopted a rule requiring publicly traded firms to report on whether they consider diversity in identifying director nominees. …

Judicial Ethics And The Eradication Of Racism, Dontay Proctor-Mills

Seattle University Law Review

In 2020, the Washington Supreme Court entrusted the legal community with working to eradicate racism from its legal system. Soon after, Washington’s Commission on Judicial Conduct (hereinafter the Commission) received a complaint about a bus ad for North Seattle College featuring King County Superior Court Judge David Keenan. Along with a photo of Judge Keenan’s face, the ad included the following language: “A Superior Court Judge, David Keenan got into law in part to advocate for marginalized communities. David’s changing the world. He started at North.” The Commission admonished Judge Keenan for violating the Code of Judicial Conduct, in part …

Why Corporate Boards Should Include Lgbtq+ People, Jeremy Mcclane, Darren Rosenblum

Seattle University Law Review

Corporate boardrooms sit at the heart of most of society’s most consequential decisions but fall far short of the diversity of our society. The current movement toward board diversification aims to remedy the underrepresentation of marginalized groups on corporate boards. More recently, some efforts have included LGBTQ+ people, even though the basis for their inclusion on corporate boards remains largely unstated. This Article examines both the normative and instrumental bases for LGBTQ+ inclusion in board diversity initiatives, articulating unspoken assumptions and linking LGBTQ+ people to the broader inclusion effort. In so doing, it begins to surface the unique issues LGBTQ+ …

A Portrait Of The Artist’S Heirs In Mediation: Adr Techniques To Prevent And Resolve Disputes Following An Author’S Death, Nicholas Beudert

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

If an author's work is powerful enough, or popular enough, it's likely that at some point someone will want to write about her. For scholars embarking upon these projects, the author's body of published work can provide insight into her psyche, but correspondence and other unpublished materials can also be valuable. Copyright law covers all of these materials, and when the author dies, she can bequest her copyright as she would the rest of her estate (if she hasn't transferred it during her lifetime). The recipient of these copyrights may now treat the copyrights as her own, as though she …

Big Screen Or Bust?: How Contractual Negotiations In Hollywood Must Adapt In The Streaming Era, Alexis Narotzky

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

Scarlett Johansson made her first appearance as her superhero alter-ego, the Black Widow, on May 7, 2010, in the movie Iron Man 2. Over the next intervening eleven years, Johansson appeared in several of Disney's Marvel ("Disney" or "Marvel") movies in supporting roles. On July 9, 2021, Marvel released the Black Widow with Scarlett Johansson as the lead character. Johansson's agreement for her character's eponymous film was built upon the expectation of large bonuses based on profit from outsized box-office receipts, understood as a profit-participation or contingent compensation contract. Johansson's lawyers negotiated for a "wide theatrical release" to protect …

Why And What Federal Nil Rights Legislation Is Needed, Matthew J. Mitten

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

The article argues that federal Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) rights legislation is essential to maintain the amateur/educational model of intercollegiate sports, preserve the distinction between college and professional athletics, and ensure competitive balance. It emphasizes the need for national uniformity to prevent conflicting state laws and address antitrust concerns.

Large Corporations And Investor-State Arbitration, Weijia Rao

Faculty Scholarship

Policymakers and scholars have expressed concerns about growing corporate influence over government regulations, including in the context of investor-state dispute settlement (“ISDS”). Encouraged by high profile victories and examples of “regulatory chill,” critics of ISDS have argued that it excessively serves large multinational corporate interests at the expense of government regulatory agendas. In part due to such criticisms, various proposals have been made, including the replacement of ISDS with multilateral investment courts or state-to-state arbitration.

This Article introduces a novel dataset on ISDS claimant characteristics, which reveals that most ISDS claimants are actually small- or medium-sized firms. Using this dataset, …
