  • “Clean Hands” Doctrine
    Announcing the “Clean Hands” Doctrine T. Leigh Anenson, J.D., LL.M, Ph.D.* This Article offers an analysis of the “clean hands” doctrine (unclean hands), a defense that traditionally bars the equitable relief otherwise available in litigation. The doctrine spans every conceivable controversy and effectively eliminates rights. A number of state and federal courts no longer restrict unclean hands to equitable remedies or preserve the substantive version of the defense. It has also been assimilated into statutory law. The defense is additionally reproducing and multiplying into more distinctive doctrines, thus magnifying its impact. Despite its approval in the courts, the equitable defense of unclean hands has been largely disregarded or simply disparaged since the last century. Prior research on unclean hands divided the defense into topical areas of the law. Consistent with this approach, the conclusion reached was that it lacked cohesion and shared properties. This study sees things differently. It offers a common language to help avoid compartmentalization along with a unified framework to provide a more precise way of understanding the defense. Advancing an overarching theory and structure of the defense should better clarify not only when the doctrine should be allowed, but also why it may be applied differently in different circumstances.

  • 11-21578 OTI Blum.Qxd
    April 2007 Se Habla Lawsuit? By Edward Blum Though an understanding of English is a requirement for U.S. citizenship, Section 203 of the Voting Rights Act mandates that “language assistance” be available to voters in districts with non-native speaker popula- tions that meet certain criteria. The enforcement of Section 203, however, costs taxpayers tens of thou- sands of dollars, and there is no evidence it helps non-native speakers vote. The experiences of Springfield, Massachusetts, illustrate these problems. “A City of Homes . A City for Business . Springfield, like hundreds of other towns and On the Issues A City Rich with History and Multi-cultural counties around the country, is subject to Section Diversity”—so reads the motto of Springfield, 203 of the Voting Rights Act because, among Massachusetts (pop. 150,000), halfway between many other complex criteria, more than 5 percent New York and Boston.

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, ET AL., Defendants-Appellees. No. 17-3221 Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division. No. 17 C 3417—Amy J. St. Eve, Judge. Before: WOOD, Chief Judge, MANION, and ROVNER, Circuit Judges. WOOD, Chief Judge. Kenneth Mayle, an adherent of what he calls non- theistic Satanism, sued the United States and officials from the United States Mint, Department of the Treasury, and Bureau of Engraving and Printing, to enjoin the printing of the national motto, "In God We Trust," on United States currency. The district court dismissed his complaint, and we affirm. App. 2a Mayle asserts that the motto amounts to a gov- ernment endorsement of a "monotheistic concept of God." Because Satanists practice a religion that rejects monotheism, they regard the motto as "an attack on their very right to exist." Possessing and using currency, Mayle complains, forces him (and his fellow Satanists) to affirm and spread a religious message "committed to the very opposite ideals that he es- pouses." In addition, Mayle characterizes the printing of the motto as a form of discrimination against adher- ents to minority religions because it favors practition- ers of monotheistic religions.

  • Fraudulent Financial Reporting Practices: Case Study of Satyam Computer Limited
    Madan Lal Bhasin, / Journal of Economics, Marketing, and Management 4(3), pp.12-24. ISSN: 2288-7709 © 2016 EABEA. http://www.icma.or.kr doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.13106/jemm.2016.vol4.no3.12 Fraudulent Financial Reporting Practices: Case Study of Satyam Computer Limited Madan Lal Bhasin Professor, School of Accountancy, College of Business, Universiti Utara Malaysia, Sintok, Kedah Darul Aman, Malaysia. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Fraudulent financial reporting practices can have significant consequences for organizations and all stakeholders, as well as, for public confidence in the capital and security markets. In fact, comprehensive, accurate and reliable financial reporting is the bedrock upon which our markets are based. Keen to project a rosy picture of the Satyam to investors, employees and analysts, Mr. Raju (CEO and Chairman) fudged the account books so that it appeared to be a far bigger enterprise, with high profits and fast growth rate, than it actually was. The Satyam fraud has shattered the dreams of different categories of investors, shocked the government and regulators alike, and led to questioning of the accounting practices of statutory auditors and corporate governance norms in India. This is an exploratory study based on secondary sources of information. An attempt has been made to provide an explanation for various intriguing questions about Satyam scam. After thorough investigations by the CBI and SEBI, they have unveiled the methodology by which Satyam fraud was engineered. Finally, we recommend “Fraudulent reporting practices should be considered as a serious crime, and accounting bodies, courts and other regulatory authorities in India need to adopt very strict punitive measures to stop such unethical practices.” Keywords: Fraudulent Financial Reporting Practices, Satyam Computer, Modus-Operandi, Financial Statements, Corporate Governance, Auditors, Forensic Accounting, Corporate Culture and Ethics, SEBI, SFIO, CID, India.

  • The Following Remarks Were Delivered to the Staff of the Texas State
    The following remarks were delivered to the staff of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission on the occasion of the second Learning Engagement Opportunities Day, November 8, 2019. Nor Is This All The Spirit of the Texas State Library and Archives Introduction--Motto Do you remember your senior year in high school? What about the little saying or motto you contributed to the yearbook with your picture? In my wife’s and my senior yearbooks, I found this variety with advice, reflection, philosophy: One, never let your parents get the upper hand. I had the world on a string. .until I woke up. No one knows the value of victory better than the one who has suffered defeat And, perhaps the one that both tickles and perplexes me the most: Yes, dear. Not just high school seniors, but public entities these days need a motto—that is: “a phrase meant to formally summarize the agency’s general motivation or intention” Of the mottos of the 174-plus Texas state agencies in the TRAIL list on your website, some are just lengthy, grinding mission statements. Some are brief maxims designed to capture the imagination. Perhaps the motto heard most frequently in these parts is: UT-Austin’s: What starts here changes the world. So, do you know the TSLA agency motto—the one on the website? Maybe you think it is or should be “Yes, dear.” No, that’s not it. It is: “preserving yesterday, informing today and inspiring tomorrow.” Yes, that’s good. But in studying the first century and a half of the TSLA history, I found that the agency has an informal motto that predates even the 1909 enactment of the statute under which the agency functions today, 110 years later.

  • “Ship, Shipmates, Self” Christopher J
    The oyage Paul Cuffee School A Maritime CharterV School for Providence Youth Spring/Summer 2015 Vol. 13 Issue 2 “Ship, Shipmates, Self” Christopher J. Haskins, Head of School HIP , SHIPMATES , SELF . This is the motto of the tall ship Mystic, a vessel on which the Class of 2015 spent three nights at the start S of the school year. It’s another way of stating the Paul Cuffee School expectations taught to students as early as kindergarten: I take care of my school. I take care of my community. I take care of myself. A sense of community, adventure, academic learning, social and emotional growth, and supportive relationships combine to make the school a special place in each of our three campuses. Mr. Haskins bids Bon Voyage to sea-faring seniors aboard the schooner, “Mystic.” My first year as Head of School has been very challenging and immensely rewarding. As I write this, I smile thinking about the Commencement Celebration for the Class of 2015 and, the following morning, families of new kindergarten students entering the school for the first time. Many of our students will learn and grow throughout their entire 13 years of public education at Paul Cuffee School. We have a tremendous responsibility and the incredible opportunity to transform lives through our unique school model. Being one school across three campuses can present some challenges. Teachers working in different buildings see each other with less frequency. Siblings across campuses can feel like they’re in different schools. Yet, the school buildings have much more in common than differences.
