Mental Health Care And Intimate Partner Violence: Unasked Questions, Delaney E. Anderson, Richard C. Boldt
Faculty Scholarship
There is significant overlap between the group of people who experience trauma, including domestic or intimate partner violence, and those who are hospitalized for severe mental illness. In recent years there has been a growing awareness in the mental health treatment community of the prevalence of trauma among individuals with behavioral health problems. Despite the strong evidence of elevated rates of exposure to domestic or intimate partner violence among individuals experiencing mental illness (including depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress disorder), mental health professionals often do not effectively address this co-occurring factor in assessing and treating their clients or patients. The …

We Shouldn't Need Roe, Carliss Chatman
Scholarly Articles
In the face of state-by-state attacks on the right to choose, which result in regular challenges to Roe v. Wade in the U.S. Supreme Court, this essay asks whether Roe is needed at all. Decades of state law encroachments have caused Roe to fail to properly protect the right to choose. Building on prior works that challenge the premise of fetal personhood and highlighting the status of Roe-based rights after decades of challenges, this essay proposes an alternative solution to Roe. Federal legislative and executive efforts, including the Women’s Health Protection Act, are necessary to ensure the right …

Making An Offer That Can't Be Refused: The Need For Reform In The Rules Governing Informed Consent And Doctor-Patient Agreements, Timothy C. Macdonnell
Scholarly Articles
On a daily basis, throughout the country, patients are required to sign informed consent forms regarding the care they receive from their doctors. Informed consent forms are an important part of ensuring patients are making an intelligent, autonomous decision regarding their healthcare based on the facts related to their particular situation. However, frequently these consent forms contain what amount to contract-like terms that require patients to permit doctors to substitute other healthcare providers to care for the patient under the doctor’s supervision (substituted caregiver terms). Often these terms are presented to patients on the eve of surgery and on a …

Advancing Harm Reduction Services In The United States: The Untapped Role Of The Americans With Disabilities Act, Valarie K. Blake, Abigail Fletes, Maria Katherine Delos Reyes, John C. Messinger, Leo Beletsky
Scholarly Works
Now in its third decade, the overdose crisis continues to worsen. Harm reduction strategies, such as syringe service programs (SSPs), are proven, cost-effective responses to this ongoing public health emergency. Despite extensive research demonstrating that the health and social benefits of harm reduction services far outweigh alleged negative externalities, the number and scope of these programs continue to be severely limited. Restrictive zoning and other discriminatory legal measures figure among key barriers to harm reduction service access. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Rehabilitation Act (RA) have recently gained prominence in challenging discrimination against people who seek substance use …

Neurorights For Incarcerated Persons: Should We Curb Inflation?, Shannon Fyfe, Elizabeth Lanphier, Andrew Peterson
Scholarly Articles
We support protecting privacy and freedom, both generally and in carceral settings. Yet we remain skeptical that expanding so-called “neurorights” achieves these aims (cf. Bublitz 2022). Instead, it may inflate human rights in ways that diminish the ability to enforce them, overlook the ways in which incarceration is at odds with other human rights, and raise questions of whether neurotechnologies can violate such rights in the ways Ligthart et al. imply.

More Money, More Problems: Why H.R. 1318 Is An Insufficient Fix To Remedy The Maternal Mortality Crisis
Florida A & M University Law Review
Between 1990 and 2013 maternal mortality has nearly doubled in the United States as opposed to other countries.6 Per every 100,000 live births, there are 26.4 deaths in the United States. In fact, the United States has the highest rate of maternal mortality in the industrialized world. Unfortunately, maternal mortality did not become a political issue until public figures, like Beyonc´e and Serena Williams, began speaking out about near-death experiences while giving birth. For example, T.V. phenomenon Judge Glenda Hatchett’s daughter-in-law, Kira Johnson, died due to pregnancy-related complications in 2016. Stories like Beyonc´e’s, Serena Williams, and Kira Johnson caused a …

Age—Not Sex Or Gender—Makes The Case Of Ellie Anderson Complex, Elizabeth Lanphier, Shannon Fyfe
Scholarly Articles
In ’The Complex Case of Ellie Anderson’, Joona Rasanen and Anna Smajdor raise several ethical questions about the case. One question asks, but does not answer, whether Ellie faced discrimination for being transgender when her mother was not allowed access to Ellie’s sperm following her death. In raising the question, the authors imply anti-trans bias may have influenced this determination. However, this inference is not supported by current ethical and legal guidance for posthumous use of gametes, with which Ellie’s case is consistent. We consider the authors’ responses to their other ethical queries, and how their suggestions for what options …
