BELLONE J.D.* AND GRAHAM KELDER, J.D.** INTRODUCTION Business law is the foundation of many legal concepts and principles used in other fields of learning. More and more disciplines are using basic business law principles in their daily matters. Health care providers use proxies for health care decisions; land developers employ the business law principle of the Statute of Frauds to transfer an interest in land; family law employs the business concept of agency in deciding how parents must care for their children; and the criminal justice system utilizes contract law for agreements between the State and a defendant where the defendant pleads guilty to a crime in exchange for a reduced sentence or charge. Unfortunately, business law principles are often misunderstood and misused by these other areas creating negative outcomes. In recent years, the criminal justice system has begun using specialized courts to deal with specific issues. The main type of specialized court is the drug court. Drug courts push basic business law concepts to new heights. Proponents maintain that while drug courts bend these legal concepts, they do not break them. Critics charge that drug courts not only break these legal concepts, but use their trappings * Eric T. Bellone is an Assistant Professor of Legal Studies at Suffolk University and a Ph.D. Candidate in Law, Policy & Society at Northeastern University. ** Graham Kelder is an Assistant Professor of Legal Studies at Suffolk University. 2 / Vol. 43 / Business Law Review to highjack the legitimacy that these legal concepts have attained through centuries of pedigree. Drug courts, like many specialized courts, press the judiciary and judges beyond their traditional roles. Drug courts hope to combine law and drug treatment as an effective and efficient means of drug therapy. Critics maintain that mixing therapy and law, dubbed “therapeutic jurisprudence,” creates a paradox that cannot be rationalized. Therapy presupposes that the offender is the victim of an illness and does not exercise free will, and therefore should be treated and not punished for the illness. Alternatively, criminal law presupposes free will. Punishment is based on altering individual choice through deterrence. These two concepts are diametrically opposed. In the drug court, when an offender cannot be “cured,” the law mandates that he or she be punished.1 This paper examines the allegation that drug court plea agreements/drug court contracts violate the basic legal principles of plea-bargaining and contract law and can only be aligned with such principles under limited circumstances. It presents an analysis of drug court post-plea entry through a framework of contract. Specifically, this paper will explore the allegation that when the State, as a drug court, enters into a contract with a defendant through the plea bargaining process, the arrangement creates a situation where one party to the contract (in particular the drug court judge) interprets the terms of the contract and also has the power to enforce its interpretation, leading to a lack or failure of consideration under contract law. A second concern involves the “point of failure” for drug court defendants when the drug court judge acts as both a participant in the drug court process and a fact-finder of a defendant’s

  • My Name Is Robert Maclean. Currently My Whistleblower Protection Act Case Is the First Involving the Act That Will Be Heard by the Supreme Court
    TESTIMONY OF ROBERT MACLEAN before the HOUSE OVERSIGHT AND GOVERNMENT REFORM COMMITTEE, SUBCOMMITTEE ON FEDERAL WORKFORCE, U.S. POSTAL SERVICE AND THE CENSUS September 9, 2014 Mr. Chairman: Thank you for inviting my testimony. My name is Robert MacLean. Currently my Whistleblower Protection Act case is the first involving the Act that will be heard by the Supreme Court. But I am not here to talk about the legal arguments. I want to share why I had to blow the whistle, and what it means for our country to protect the freedom to warn. The timeline below shares a whistleblowing experience I never wanted to have. But it forced me to make the most difficult choices and decisions of my life, about my duty to the country as a public servant and law enforcement officer. The timeline below chronicles a series of events that has changed my life forever, and may have been even more significant for our nation’s safety. 1992 — After four years as a nuclear weapons specialist, I was honorably discharged from the Air Force with a Top Secret clearance and the option to reenlist. 1996 — I became a Border Patrol Agent in the San Diego Sector. Not to be confused with a port inspector you see working at land border entry points or airports. I patrolled the vast area between entry points. 32 days after the 9/11 attacks — I was specially recruited to be in the first class of U.S. Federal Air Marshals (Air Marshals) to graduate after the 9/11 attacks. July 26, 2003 — Four months after the invasion of Iraq, all Air Marshals throughout the country were recalled for mandatory unprecedented in-office emergency suicidal Al-Qaeda hijacking training.

  • Using Turnitin to Provide Feedback on L2 Writers' Texts
    The Electronic Journal for English as a Second Language August 2016 – Volume 20, Number 2 Using Turnitin to Provide Feedback on L2 Writers’ Texts * * * On the Internet * * * Ilka Kostka Northeastern University Boston, MA, USA <[email protected]> Veronika Maliborska Northeastern University Boston, MA, USA <[email protected]> Abstract Second language (L2) writing instructors have varying tools at their disposal for providing feedback on students’ writing, including ones that enable them to provide written and audio feedback in electronic form. One tool that has been underexplored is Turnitin, a widely used software program that matches electronic text to a wide range of electronic texts found on the Internet and in the program’s massive repository. While Turnitin is primarily known for detecting potential plagiarism, we believe that instructors can make use of two features of the program (GradeMark tools and originality checker) to provide formative and summative feedback on students’ drafts. In this article, we use screenshots to illustrate how we have leveraged Turnitin to provide feedback to undergraduate L2 writers about their writing and use of sources. We encourage instructors who have access to Turnitin to explore the different features of this tool and its potential to create opportunities for learning. Introduction Educators have long been concerned about plagiarism, and developments in technology and the Internet over the past two decades have further complicated the issue. One way that institutions have responded to these concerns is by purchasing matched text detection software, which is often referred to as plagiarism detection software. Simply defined, matched text detection software matches text to other electronic text to determine how similar the texts are to each other.

Washington, D.C. 20006 Washington, D.C. 20004 (202) 637-5600 [email protected] Counsel for Respondent i QUESTION PRESENTED In recognition of the crucial role federal employees play in uncovering unlawful, wasteful, and danger- ous government activity, Congress has enacted strong protections for government whistleblowers. One such provision provides that agencies may not retaliate against employees who disclose information revealing, among other things, “any violation of any law, rule, or regulation” or “a substantial and specific danger to public health or safety.” 5 U.S.C. § 2302(b)(8)(A). There is an exception, however, for “disclosure[s] * * * specifically prohibited by law” or by certain Executive orders. Id. Disclosure of certain kinds of sensitive but unclas- sified information, referred to as “Sensitive Security Information,” is prohibited by regulation. See 49 C.F.R. Pt. 1520. Those regulations are promulgated pursuant to a general statutory delegation of author- ity. See 49 U.S.C.A. § 114(r)(1). The question presented is whether a disclosure of Sensitive Security Information is “specifically prohib- ited by law” within the meaning of Section 2302(b)(8)(A).
