  • Theodore Olson, Conservative Stalwart, to Represent 'Dreamers' In
    Theodore Olson, Conservative Stalwart, to Represent ‘Dreamers’ in Supreme Court By Adam Liptak • Sept. 26, 2019 o WASHINGTON — The young immigrants known as “Dreamers” have gained an unlikely ally in the Supreme Court. Theodore B. Olson, who argued for robust executive power in senior Justice Department posts under Republican presidents, will face off against lawyers from President Trump’s Justice Department in a case over Mr. Trump’s efforts to shut down a program that shields some 700,000 young undocumented immigrants from deportation and allows them to work. In an interview in his office, Mr. Olson said he had generally taken a broad view of presidential authority, particularly in the realm of immigration. “Executive power is important, and we respect it,” he said. “But it has to be done the right way. It has to be done in an orderly fashion so that citizens can understand what is being done and people whose lives have depended on a governmental policy aren’t swept away arbitrarily and capriciously. And that’s what’s happened here.” Mr. Olson has argued 63 cases in the Supreme Court, many of them as solicitor general under President George W. Bush. In private practice, he argued for the winning sides in Bush v. Gore, which handed the presidency to Mr. Bush, and Citizens United, which amplified the role of money in politics. But Mr. Olson disappointed some of his usual allies when he joined David Boies, his adversary in Bush v. Gore, to challenge California’s ban on same-sex marriage. That case reached the Supreme Court and helped pave the way for the court’s 2015 decision establishing a constitutional right to such unions.

  • Gruber Foundation Formed at Yale Yale Joins Sloan Digital Sky Survey
    Yale University Astronomy Department Newsletter Vol. 3 Fall 2011 No. 1 Yale joins Sloan Digital Sky Survey III Yale is now a fully participating member of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III (SDSS-III) Collaboration. Although Yale was not a member during the first two phases of SDSS, the suc- cess of SDSS and the excitement of Yale astronomers about the projects and data of SDSS-III led Yale to join now. Based on citations in refereed articles and meeting abstracts, SDSS has been rated as the telescope project with the biggest sci- entific impact in history, beating out even the Hubble Space Telescope and the Keck Telescopes (c.f. Madrid, Juan P. and Macchetto, Duccio 2009arXiv0901.4552M). The previous incarnations of SDSS have imaged 13,000 square degrees, corresponding to about a third of the en- tire sky. SDSS-III is taking spectra of interesting objects that were found in these images, through a program of four sur- veys that cover three scientific themes. The Baryon Oscil- lation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) studies dark energy and the geometry of space.

    . A Short History of Hearsay Reform, with Particular Reference to Hoffman v. Palmer, Eddie Morgan and Jerry Frank Michael Ariens* "Few historians, however, hold themselves out as fictionists." Jerome Frank, The Place ofthe Expert in a Democratic Society 1 True, no man can be wholly apart from his fellows. But, if each of us is a promontory, yet the promontory reaches out beyond the social mainland to a point where others cannot intrude. ... It is a no-other-man's land, for others can't penetrate it, can't communicate with it. Jerome Frank, Judge Learned Hand1 Introduction On my summer vacation, I chanced upon the novel Foe by the South African writer 3 J.M. Coetzee. Foe is a modern reworking of Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe. In this modern retelling, Coetzee presents the story of the relation of author and subject, not the story of the adventures of a shipwrecked Englishman. In Foe, the authorial voice is that of Susan Barton, a castaway who ended up on the same island as Cruso and Friday. She, Cruso and Friday are "rescued" and taken by ship to England. En route, Cruso dies. Once in London, Susan Barton takes her story of Cruso and Friday to Daniel Foe, and finds that his interest is more in the story of her life and less in the story of Cruso 's adventures. Foe, chased by creditors, flees his house, into which Barton and Friday move. Barton later leaves, searching for Foe, whom she finally tracks down. Confronting Foe, 4 she says, "I am not a story, Mr.

  • Presidential Signing Statements: Will Congress Pick up the Gauntlet?
    June 26, 2006 PRESIDENTIAL SIGNING STATEMENTS: WILL CONGRESS PICK UP THE GAUNTLET? David H. Remes Gerard J. Waldron ∗ Shannon A. Lang Presidential “signing statements” – formal expressions of the views of a President regarding legislation that he has just signed into law – are nearly as old as the Republic. Although previous Presidents issued signing statements, not until the Reagan Administration did they begin using such statements system- atically to influence judicial interpretation or, most recently, to declare legisla- tion non-binding on the Executive. The use of presidential signing statements to influence judicial interpreta- tion, pioneered by President Reagan, has proven ineffectual: Judges who look to legislative history at all place little weight on signing statements. The use of signing statements to deny effect to legislation, however, immediately alters the relationship between the Executive, on the one hand, and Congress and the judi- ciary, on the other. Article I of the Constitution gives Congress the last word as to whether a law will take effect, subject to judicial review, by empowering Congress to over- ride a presidential veto. When the President issues a signing statement refusing to give effect to a law, the President usurps the powers of Congress by circum- venting the Constitution’s provision for overriding presidential vetoes, and by effectively asserting unilateral power to repeal and amend legislation. Similarly, when the President denies effect to legislation because he con- siders it unconstitutional, the President displaces the judiciary as the final ex- positor of the Constitution and undermines the principle of judicial review that is crucial to our system of checks and balances.

  • When Marriage Is Too Much: Reviving the Registered Partnership in a Diverse Society Abstract
    M ARY C HARLOTTE Y . C ARROLL When Marriage Is Too Much: Reviving the Registered Partnership in a Diverse Society abstract. In the years since same-sex marriage’s legalization, many states have repealed their civil union and domestic partnership laws, creating a marriage-or-nothing binary for couples in search of relationship recognition. This Note seeks to add to the growing call for legal recognition of partnership pluralism by illustrating why marriage is not the right fit—or even a realistic choice—for all couples. It highlights in particular the life-or-death consequences matrimony can bring for those reliant on government healthcare benefits because of a disability or a need for long- term care. Building upon interview data and a survey of state nonmarital partnership policies, it proposes the creation of a customizable marriage alternative: the registered partnership. author. Yale Law School, J.D. 2020; University of Cambridge, M.Phil. approved 2017; Rice University, B.A. 2016. I am grateful first and foremost to Anne Alstott, whose endless support, encouragement, and feedback enabled me to write this Note. I am further indebted to Frederik Swennen and Wilfried Rault for taking the time to speak with me about nonmarital partnerships in France and Belgium and to Kaiponanea T. Matsumura and Michael J. Higdon for invaluable guidance on nonmarital partnerships in the United States. Thanks also to the wonderful editors of the Yale Law Journal’s Notes & Comments Committee, especially Abigail Fisch, for their thoughtful comments; to the First- and Second-Year Editors, for their careful review of my Note; and to the Streicker Fund for Student Research, whose generosity made it possible for me to con- duct the research that informed this project.

    A Catalog of the Book and Archival Materials Held by the William Howard Taft National Historic Site, Cincinnati, Ohio Cataloged by the Staff of the Cataloging Services Department Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County Edited by Roger M. Miller Cataloging Services Department Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County September 2008 The Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County 800 Vine Street Cincinnati, Ohio 45202‐2071 513‐369‐6900 www.cincinnatilibrary.org Located in Cincinnati’s historic Mount Auburn neighborhood, the William Howard Taft National Historic Site is comprised of the Taft family home and the Taft Education Center. William Howard Taft, who was 27th President and 10th Chief Justice of The United States, lived in this home from the time of his birth in 1857 until he was 25 years of age. The William Howard Taft National Historic Site was established in 1969 and is administered by the National Parks Service. In addition to having many pieces of furniture and interior decoration that belonged to the Taft family, the Site has over 400 book volumes located on shelves in the Taft home or in storage in the Taft Education Center. While these volumes were previously cataloged within an internal database, they were not available to searchers over the Internet. In 2007, the Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County agreed to catalog the Taft collection and thereby make it accessible to searchers through its own catalog, available over the Internet at http://catalog.cincinnatilibrary.org. Of the 305 titles cataloged in the fall of 2007, approximately 65 were duplicates of titles already held by the Public Library, and approximately 239 were new to the Public Library’s catalog.

This qualitative research took the form of a multiple case study in which five purposefully selected Chinese families’ home literacy practices were investigated in one Midwest community in the US. The study sheds light on the Chinese families’ sociocultural literacy practices and strategies they adopted to interact socially with their children to promote the achievement of biliteracy (Chinese– English listening, speaking, reading, and writing).

  • Why Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(B) Is Unconstitutional
    SYMPOSIUM ARTICLE TWOMBLY IN CONTEXT: WHY FEDERAL RULE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE 4(B) IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL E. Donald Elliott Abstract Rule 4(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure delegates to private parties state authority to compel a person to appear and answer civil charges in court without any preliminary state review or screening for reasonableness. This is argued to be unconstitutional as a unreasonable seizure of the person, a deprivation of private property without due process, and a standardless delegation of state power to a private party with a financial interest. The history of the writ of summons is reviewed. From the Founding until 1938, federal courts reviewed the grounds proposed for suit prior to service of a summons ordering someone to come to court to answer charges. It is argued that unless courts routinely award full economic costs after the fact to make someone whole who has been sued wrongfully, they must satisfy themselves in advance that there is a reasonable basis for suit before ordering the persons sued to appear and answer. Rule 4(b) is argued to be unconstitutional as (1) a seizure of the person and property of the defendant without any attempt by the state to verify that it is reasonable to do so; (2) an unconstitutional deprivation of property without due process of law; (3) an unconstitutional delegation of state power to issue a court order to a private party with a financial interest, and (4) an unconstitutional repeal of a statute providing for judicial control over process without following constitutionally required procedures.
