From the time that I was a young boy, my mother wanted me to be a lawyer, which was interesting because we had no other family members on any branch of the family tree who were lawyers. illustration by goro sasaki Unlike some others present here, I had no father or uncle who took me to his law office as a child.

  • "The Who Sings My Generation" (Album)
    “The Who Sings My Generation”—The Who (1966) Added to the National Registry: 2008 Essay by Cary O’Dell Original album Original label The Who Founded in England in 1964, Roger Daltrey, Pete Townshend, John Entwistle, and Keith Moon are, collectively, better known as The Who. As a group on the pop-rock landscape, it’s been said that The Who occupy a rebel ground somewhere between the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, while, at the same time, proving to be innovative, iconoclastic and progressive all on their own. We can thank them for various now- standard rock affectations: the heightened level of decadence in rock (smashed guitars and exploding drum kits, among other now almost clichéd antics); making greater use of synthesizers in popular music; taking American R&B into a decidedly punk direction; and even formulating the idea of the once oxymoronic sounding “rock opera.” Almost all these elements are evident on The Who’s debut album, 1966’s “The Who Sings My Generation.” Though the band—back when they were known as The High Numbers—had a minor English hit in 1964 with the singles “I’m the Face”/”Zoot Suit,” it wouldn’t be until ’66 and the release of “My Generation” that the world got a true what’s what from The Who. “Generation,” steam- powered by its title tune and timeless lyric of “I hope I die before I get old,” “Generation” is a song cycle worthy of its inclusive name. Twelve tracks make up the album: “I Don’t Mind,” “The Good’s Gone,” “La-La-La Lies,” “Much Too Much,” “My Generation,” “The Kids Are Alright,” “Please, Please, Please,” “It’s Not True,” “The Ox,” “A Legal Matter” and “Instant Party.” Allmusic.com summarizes the album appropriately: An explosive debut, and the hardest mod pop recorded by anyone.

Stern∗ Long-standing disagreements over the definition of property as a matter of legal theory present a special problem in constitutional law. The Due Process and Takings Clauses establish individual rights that can be asserted only if “property” is at stake. Yet the leading cases interpreting constitutional property doctrines have never managed to articulate a coherent general view of property, and in some instances have reached opposite conclusions about its meaning. Most notably, government benefits provided in the form of individual legal entitlements are considered “property” for purposes of due process but not takings doctrines, a conflict the cases acknowledge but do not attempt to explain. This Article offers a way to bring order to the confused treatment of property in constitutional law. It shows how a single definition of property can be adopted for all of the major constitutional property doctrines without the calamitous results that many seem to fear. The Article begins by arguing that property is best understood as the right to have some measure of legal control over the way a particular item is used, control that comes at the expense of all other people.

  • The Future of Big Law: Alternative Legal Service Providers to Corporate Clients
    THE FUTURE OF BIG LAW: ALTERNATIVE LEGAL SERVICE PROVIDERS TO CORPORATE CLIENTS John S. Dzienkowski* INTRODUCTION The legal profession around the world is undergoing a significant transformation. The turn of the century saw the world’s largest accounting firms offer legal services through different forms of multidisciplinary practice models.1 In 2007, Slater & Gordon became one of the world’s first public law firms.2 In the same year, the United Kingdom enacted the Legal Services Act3 in an effort to modernize the delivery of legal services.4 During this time period, several large national and multinational law firms—so-called Big Law firms (e.g., Brobeck, Heller Erhmann, Dewey & LeBoeuf, Thacher Proffitt, Thelen, Coudert Brothers, and Howrey)— dissolved due to financial and business issues.5 Further, many firms have merged in order to better position themselves for the highly competitive marketplace.6 * Professor of Law and Dean John F. Sutton, Jr. Chair in Lawyering and the Legal Process, The University of Texas at Austin. I would like to thank Robert Peroni, Laurel Terry, and Mark Cohen, Managing Director of Clearspire, for their comments on an earlier draft of this Article and William Gottfried for his excellent research assistance. 1.

  • Should the Brandenburg V
    AVOIDING AN E-DISCOVERY ODYSSEY Note: This article first appeared in the Northern Kentucky Law Review, Volume 36 Number 4 (Summer 2009). Roland Bernier INTRODUCTION: AVOIDING THE ATTENTION OF THE MODERN-DAY HOMER Sing to me of the man, Muse, the man of twists and turns driven time and again off course . .1 Pity poor Odysseus. Admire him, if you prefer. The heroic warrior, after all, travels through 12,109 lines of poetry in the form of dactylic hexameter, skirting monsters and whirlpools, suffering seven years of imprisonment by the nymph Calypso, fighting pirates, helplessly watching the transformation of half his men into swine by the evil Circe (always a nuisance), being driven half-mad by recklessly exposing himself to the songs of the Sirens, and suffering through at least two ship wrecks.2 He endures all this after ten years at war, and makes good on his quest to return home to his beloved Ithaca, even if rather belatedly and with the complete loss of his crew.3 Odysseus faced outrageous challenges. The attorney navigating his own e- discovery ocean may occasionally feel justified in comparing his own situation to that described by Homer. After all, his own quest is no walk in the wading pool. The waters he must navigate may seem as deep and dark as any Odysseus crossed. The dangers lurking in the hidden eddies and islands, unseen and unknown, are just as treacherous. The navigation across this binary gulf is just as difficult. In response, he should seek to treat his own dangers with more caution and more foresight than did good Odysseus.
