{"title":"Disability, Employment Policy, and the Supreme Court","authors":"M. Stein","doi":"10.2139/SSRN.337722","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/SSRN.337722","url":null,"abstract":"This essay addresses Ruth O'Brien's \"Crippled Justice: The History of Modern Disability Policy in the Workplace\" (University of Chicago Press, 2001). According to O'Brien, modern disability employment practices are influenced by vocational rehabilitation policies that only integrate disabled workers who have fully adapted themselves to the workplace. One consequence of this normative schema, which O'Brien avers is both operative and compelling, is Supreme Court resistance to disability rights, and especially the ADA's employment provisions. Crippled Justice's thesis is provocative and interesting. O'Brien proffers a novel theory in claiming that a whole man schema originated by an epistemic rehabilitation community in Cold War America continues to have a determinative effect upon the Supreme Court's ADA jurisprudence. Yet, despite the freshness of this approach, O'Brien's thesis is ultimately unconvincing. This is primarily due to her inability to demonstrate that the Justices who lived through the 1950s and 1960s were so indoctrinated into the intellectual milieu of psychoanalytic thinking that they continue to be influenced by that epistemic community's vision of disability. Nevertheless, the book provides a valuable service by raising a key question: why is the Supreme Court (as well as the lower federal courts) averse to disability-related employment claims? Many answers can, and hopefully will, be forthcoming.","PeriodicalId":51386,"journal":{"name":"Stanford Law Review","volume":"55 1","pages":"607-634"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2002-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68589410","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Director Primacy in Corporate Takeovers: Preliminary Reflections","authors":"Stephen M. Bainbridge","doi":"10.2139/SSRN.330582","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/SSRN.330582","url":null,"abstract":"Prepared for a Stanford Law Review symposium, this essay comments on an article by Harvard Professors Bebchuk, Coates, and Subramanian; namely, Lucian Ayre Bebchuk et al., The Powerful Antitakeover Force of Staggered Boards: Theory, Evidence, and Policy, 54 STAN. L. REV. (forthcoming). Bebchuk, Coates, and Subramanian's data demonstrate that (1) the incidence of staggered boards has increased substantially in the last two decades and (2) most, if not all, of this increase can be linked to the staggered board's utility as a takeover defense. In response, they offer a policy prescription \"stated simply\" as: \"Courts should not allow managers to continue blocking a takeover bid after they lose one election conducted over an acquisition offer\". It is this recommendation and the normative foundations on which it is premised, rather than the minutiae of their empirical analysis and theoretical models, which are the focus of this comment. Like much of modern academic commentary on corporate law, Bebchuk, Coates, and Subramanian's policy recommendation rests on the principle of shareholder primacy. In contrast, this comment argues that corporate law is better understood as a system of director primacy in which the board of directors is not a mere agent of the shareholders, but rather is a sort of Platonic guardian serving as the nexus of the various contracts making up the corporation. The comment concludes by proposing a director primacy-based standard for reviewing the tandem use of classified boards and poison pills as an alternative to Bebchuk, Coates, and Subramanian's proposed prophylactic bar on their use.","PeriodicalId":51386,"journal":{"name":"Stanford Law Review","volume":"55 1","pages":"791-804"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2002-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68583728","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The paper continues by describing how the Order changes and interacts with the previous law surrounding executive privilege, examines the process for gaining access to presidential records, and explains how the Order violates constitutional separation of powers principles.

The Article contends that the original articulation of the \"reasonable expectation of privacy\" standard in Katz v. United States made sense, but that the Court has, in subsequently applying and developing it, effectively robbed the doctrine of its protective power. It has done so through the use of two \"moves\" that are identified and developed in the Article: the equation of risk with invitation, and the equation of limited with absolute exposure. The Article demonstrates the pervasiveness of these moves as well as the perverse consequences of their application for the future of privacy.","PeriodicalId":51386,"journal":{"name":"Stanford Law Review","volume":"56 1","pages":"119-189"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2002-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.2307/1229591","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68296404","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Miller","doi":"10.2139/SSRN.325580","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/SSRN.325580","url":null,"abstract":"Both scholarly literature and public debate about plea bargaining embody a false dichotomy. Commentators err in assuming that criminal trials are the only alternative to plea bargains, and that fewer plea bargains lead inexorably to more trials. This paper offers a different choice, and points to prosecutorial screening as the principal alternative to plea bargains. Prosecutorial screening is a viable and significant alternative to living with the dishonesty of plea bargaining or mandating trials. The empirical heart of our paper studies charging data from New Orleans, where over the last three decades the New Orleans District Attorney emphasized early screening of cases and actively discouraged any changes of criminal charges as a result of negotiations after the charges are filed. This analysis confirms that a big city prosecutor can invest serious resources in early evaluation of cases and maintain this practice over the long run. All prosecutors screen cases. By prosecutorial screening we mean a structured charge selection process with four interrelated features: early assessment, reasoned selection, barriers to bargains, and enforcement. First, the prosecutor's office must make an early and careful assessment of each case, before the initial charge is filed. Second, the prosecutor's office should file charges only in provable cases that the office would generally want to result in a criminal conviction and sanction. Third, the office must severely restrict plea bargaining, and most especially charge bargains. Fourth, the office must create sufficient oversight and internal enforcement mechanisms to ensure reasonable uniformity in charging and relatively few changes to charges after they have been filed. A prosecutor who makes a realistic and early evaluation of the case will decrease in the number of negotiated guilty pleas, especially (and critically) charge bargains. Intense prosecutorial screening may produce a small increase in the number of trials, but the more substantial change would likely be an increase in the number of open pleas made without prior bargaining between the defendant and the prosecutor. A screening system that produces mostly open pleas avoids the dishonesty of plea bargaining when the offense of conviction does not match either the charges the state filed or the reality of the offender's behavior. Principled screening produces convictions that align as closely as possible with both the actual criminal behavior and the charges the prosecutor initially files. The prosecutor sends a single, consistent signal about the wisdom and worth of the case. Our study calls on every prosecutor to rethink how the office screens cases and how it explains its practices to the public. The screening/bargaining tradeoff should also become part of the political dialogue about the justice system, especially at election time. The public question should not be the conviction rate, but rather the ratio of as charged convictions to conviction","PeriodicalId":51386,"journal":{"name":"Stanford Law Review","volume":"55 1","pages":"29-119"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2002-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.2139/SSRN.325580","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68578424","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Writers on the media's methods of story selection often point out that the press considers the importance and interest of a news story to its audience to weigh more heavily in favor of its publication than the moral or political messages it conveys. See HERBERT J. GANS, DECIDING WHAT'S NEWS 147-55 (1979) (arguing that the likely importance of a news story to the reading public is the first of two key \"substantive considerations\" that determines how journalists select material for publication); id. at 155-57 (describing the second such consideration as whether a story is \"interesting\" in the sense that it is about an unusual or exceptional instance of human behavior-the author gives stories depicting \"'hard-core criminals' who go straight\" and \"amateur and professional adventurers who climb a previously unclimbed mountain or set an endurance record\" as examples of this phenomenon). 46. To be sure, my framework does not require that a group disseminate a message for public consumption in order to be expressive in nature-a group of people who congregated to debate current political issues, for instance, would also constitute an expressive group even though its members only spoke to one another (in their capacities as members of the group) and not to outsiders. For an extended argument detailing why this must be the case given existing freedom of association jurisprudence, see infra notes 86-93 and accompanying text. 47. See, e.g., Jaycees, 468 U.S. at 632 (O'Connor, J., concurring) (arguing that \"commercial associations\" are not entitled to the protection of the doctrine of freedom of association); Carpenter, supra note 42, at 1518 (arguing that \"[e]ven though not yet explicitly recognized by the Court, the commercial-expressive distinction actually helps to explain the results in many of the Court's decisions pitting a claim to freedom of association against some state regulation\"); Note, State Power and Discrimination by Private Clubs: First Amendment Protection for Nonexpressive Associations, 104 HARV.
