"No Country For Old Men": Junior Associates And The Real-World Practice Of Law, Ian Gallacher
College of Law - Faculty Scholarship
Law schools are designed to teach students about the doctrine of law and to help them prepare their skills to practice law. There are some practical aspects of law practice, though, that are rarely if ever discussed in law school. Perhaps this is because of an assumption that law firms will make these issues clear to the students they hire as associates, or perhaps it is because of a belief that such information has no place in the curriculum of an academic institution.
Whatever the reason, this is information law students should have as they begin to think about where …

Love, Anger, And Lawyering, Deborah J. Cantrell
Richmond Journal of Law and the Public Interest
As I think about my journey from law school to now, I realize that it took me some time to find a way to lawyer that also made me feel like I was flourishing in my broader life. Early in my career, I was not always aware of when I was picking up habits of mind about lawyering. I took for granted that the lawyer brain I was developing was the best version of lawyer brain out there. In order to realize the flaws in my lawyer brain, I had to fail to flourish. Then, I had to learn that …

It’S So Hard To Say Goodbye: Why Article Iii Judges Leave (Or Don’T), Johnnie Blakeney Rawlinson
Duke Law Master of Judicial Studies Theses
Thurgood Marshall famously stated: “I was appointed to a life term, and I intend to serve it.” Justice Marshall’s sentiment is in lockstep with the expressed intent of the Founding Fathers, who embedded the concept of life tenure for Article III judges into the Constitution at the time of its adoption. This paper explores the extent to which Article III judges in this era echo the sentiment expressed by Justice Marshall, and the reasons some Article III judges have elected not to serve a life term. The paper also examines whether Article III judges have gravitated toward careers in the …

Acting Gay, Acting Straight: Sexual Orientation Stereotyping, Luke A. Boso
Tennessee Law Review
What does it mean to discriminate because of sexual orientation? This legal question will increasingly arise as many states and municipalities enact laws that include sexual orientation as a protected trait. Without evidence of overt hostility towards or moral disapproval of gays as a group, plaintiffs may introduce evidence of sexual orientation stereotyping to make their case: i.e., evidence that an actor relied on group-based sexual orientation stereotypes in deciding to discriminate against an individual plaintiff. But how should courts determine whether the stereotyping relates to sexual orientation? It is important to answer this question for the litigants and judges …

Beyond Liberty: Toward A History And Theory Of Economic Coercion, Hiba Hafiz
Tennessee Law Review
The concept of economic coercion-that a relationship or transaction can be economically exploited for the benefit of some over others-is elaborated at the intersection of economic theory and economic realities, moral and political understandings of freedom, jurisprudence and the lived application of the law to facts. As a category of criminal and civil wrong, it has been directly and indirectly adjudicated in a breathtaking array of contexts of private and public ordering. Theories of economic coercion are decisive in drawing the line between what constitutes labor market competition and forced labor, which federal programs constitutionally encourage state action and which …
