One of the tasks of the students was to read the significant case law, both federal and state (Massachusetts) that pertained to issues that (adult) forensic psychologists would be expected to evaluate. These included such topics as criminal responsibility and competence to stand trial, inter alia, as well as cases related to the assessment of youths in the juvenile court. That program led to an appreciation of the factual issues that judges consider in making decisions and how legal thinking had evolved (or not) in relationship to the development of social science research. It also allowed me, as a mental health professional, to begin to understand the language of the law and the reasoning that lawyers applied to issues that existed at the juncture of mental health and the law. Since I was primarily concerned with the interface of psychology and family law, I began reading Massachusetts cases (and a few Federal decisions) that pertained to those issues, such as in the areas of child custody, parental access, removal, termination of parental rights and the like. Over the next decade other issues emerged in the law. Some were new (e.g. de facto parenting, same sex parenting, domestic violence), while others reflected an evolution in previous law (e.g. removal, role of religious differences in parenting, privileged communication). It became clear that any professional who was assigned the task of assessing families in family or juvenile court, whether through an investigation (Category F) or evaluation (Category E), needed to know the relevant case law and statutes. New training requirements for investigators and anticipated ones for evaluators mandate knowledge of the relevant laws and cases.2 The recent revision of the AFCC standards for child custody evaluations also requires knowledge of relevant case law.3 I believe that a collection of significant case summaries and statutes in one volume would serve to educate and guide the family investigator or evaluator in the fulfillment of his or her role as the “eyes and ears” of the court. The structure of the project would also permit the addition of new cases as they arise. The casebook is intended to serve as an adjunct to the Category F training materials, and eventually, for Category E, but should be useful to those who have already undergone those trainings. It is not an exhaustive collection, as I chose the cases I considered to be most relevant with respect to the general experience of GALs. The plan of the casebook is to group the cases by topic, although a few cases relate to more than one legal issue. Pertinent statutes are referenced in the body of the casebook and can be found in the last chapter. Each case contains a summary of the important facts, the decision of 2 Medeiros, L., Elsen, S., Winchester, M, & O’Leary, S.

Available at www.afccnet.org Critical Cases in Appellate Law for GALs 7 the Appeals or Supreme Judicial Court, and a commentary at the end. The goal of the commentary is to highlight those issues most important for GALs, so that attorneys looking for specific legal arguments will need to look to the cases themselves. Some comments relate to commonalities in thinking or logic between apparently disparate cases. In these ways, the casebook is different from that which Richard Packenham authored for MCLE, and which he has updated annually.4 However, where it is relevant I cite his work and reference it in the text. The casebook is more selective and more detailed than the cases compiled for the Category F training5, although I have referenced some of the same cases. In addition, the book is unbound and in loose-leaf form, so that readers can remove cases as they wish and new relevant cases can be added as the Courts decide them. I completed the initial summaries of the cases and then several consultant attorneys edited many of the summaries (see acknowledgments), although I made the final edit. Lastly, in the Afterword, I summarize my impressions about some of the larger issues in the case law and the differences in clinical and legal perspectives and language, and I present some thoughts about GALs’ addressing ultimate legal questions. While many others (see below) have shared their

The PSRP examines how to use peace processes to create inclusive and open political settlements. This special issue addresses in particular constitution-making and political settlements in times of transition. We consider how constitutional design and adjudication must be understood to have a specific political role in constructing and enabling a political settlement, as in the shared understandings as to how power is to be held and exercised, that forms the political constitution which the constitution attempts to institutionalised.

Challenging hip-hop historiographers that narrate the movement as the materialization of a “phantom aesthetic”, or a sociological, cultural, technological, and musical innovation of the last forty years, this dissertation asserts that hip-hop artists deploy distinctly literary techniques in their attempts to animate, write, rewrite, rupture, or reclaim the past for the present. Through an analysis of 20th and 21st century African-American literary engagements with black music, musical figures, scenes of musical performance, and what I call ‘musical-oral’, I hope to demonstrate how prose representations of music disrupt the linear narratives of

Funk Jurisprudentialwriting has often failed to examine extensively the important question of the purposes or functions of law. The author sug- gests that such an inquiry implies a relationship between law and some "and-in-view." He selects social utility in attaining an ideal modern Western European society in constructing the theoretical framework for his inquiry. He then lists and explicates seven maJor functions of law in¢ this sense and examines their interrelationshipsin preparationfor empiri- cal research. In conclusion he even suggests how existing empirical studies may test the adequacy of this theoretical framework. I. THE METALANGUAGE AND GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS N THE PURSUIT of jurisprudential understanding, legal phi- losophers have more often dealt with what law is and what is good law than the third of the fundamental issues of jurisprudence what law is for.2 This does not mean that the importance of this line of inquiry has been over- looked.

TOWARD A THEORY OF PRECEDENT IN ARBITRATION W. MARK C. WEIDEMAIER * ABSTRACT Do arbitrators create precedent? The claim that they do not recurs throughout much of the arbitration literature. Instead, arbitration often is viewed as an ad hoc forum in which arbitrators do justice (at best) within the confines of particular cases. As an empirical matter, however, it is increasingly clear that, in some arbitration systems, arbitrators often cite to other arbitrators, claim to rely on past awards, and promote adjudicatory consistency as an important system norm. Much like courts, then, arbitrators can (but do not always) create precedent that guides future behavior and provides a language in which disputants, lawyers, and adjudicators can express and resolve grievances. This Article provides a theoretical foundation for understanding the conditions under which precedent will (or will not) arise in arbitration. It identifies three considerations that may account for the development of precedent across a range of arbitration systems: (1) whether the system is structurally conducive to the creation of precedent; (2) whether arbitral precedent benefits the parties by filling gaps in (or displacing) state-supplied law; and (3) whether arbitrators are likely to be viewed as legitimate producers of law within the relevant context.

Unfortunately, the tidal wave of ecstasy carried totally different connotations for the Senators. In the fall of 2000, Congress had passed a bill asking the U.S. Sentencing Commission to recommend an increase in the penalties for MDMA. Two days before the Senate hearing, several MDMA researchers, drug policy activists and I had fruitlessly testified before the Sentencing Commission about MDMA’s risks and benefits, opposing the increase in penalties on scientific grounds (http://www.maps.org/news). The day before the Senate hearing, the Commission announced its decision. Dose for dose, Ecstasy would now be more heavily punished than heroin! In testimony presented to the Senators, ecstasy was linked with poison, abuse, death, brain damage, addiction, violence, damage to dopamine and serotonin brain cells, rotting flesh falling off the side of a user’s face, holes in the brain, a high school cheerleader unable to make it to practice since she was in thrall to ecstasy and would “lie, cheat and steal” to buy more, and a generation of young people who thought MDMA was harmless even as it insidiously robbed them of their mental abilities and moral sensibilities.
