  • Federal Appellate Jurisdiction Over Orders Compelling Arbitration and Staying Litigation
    This page was exported from - The Arbitration Law Forum Export date: Thu Sep 30 3:49:39 2021 / +0000 GMT Arbitration Nuts and Bolts: Federal Appellate Jurisdiction over Orders Compelling Arbitration and Staying Litigation Introduction Today we look at federal appellate jurisdiction over orders compelling arbitration and staying litigation. Sections 3 and 4 of the Federal Arbitration Act (the "FAA") provide remedies for a party who is aggrieved by another party's failure or refusal to arbitrate under the terms of an FAA-governed agreement. FAA Section 3, which governs stays of litigation pending arbitration, requires courts, ?upon application of one of the parties,? to stay litigation of issues that are ?referable to arbitration? ?until arbitration has been had in accordance with the terms of the parties' arbitration agreement, providing [the party applying for a stay] is not in default in proceeding with such arbitration.? 9 U.S.C. § 3. Faced with a properly supported application for a stay of litigation of an arbitrable controversy, a federal district court must grant the stay. 9 U.S.C. § 3. Section 4 of the FAA authorizes courts to make orders ?directing arbitration [to] proceed in the manner provided for in [the [parties' written arbitration] agreement[,]? and sets forth certain procedures for adjudicating petitions or motions to compel arbitration. 9 U.S.C. § 4. It provides that when a court determines ?an agreement for arbitration was made in writing and that there is a default in proceeding thereunder, the court shall make an order summarily directing the parties to proceed with the arbitration in accordance with the terms thereof.? 9 U.S.C.

We started out a couple weeks before Memorial Day Weekend by opening up and cleaning the Visitor Center and restocking the merchandise. We also were able to get the restrooms opened back up for the summer that weekend. Then we held our yearly CPLHS Members Camping / Work Weekend over the Memo- rial Day weekend where many new name boards were installed in the boardwalk. We also worked on projects related to the upcoming major exterior tower restoration project that started in late June and ran well into August. Also in August, another erosion control pro- ject was started at the east end of the boardwalk. In October we concluded the season by completing some updates to the water supply system to the Visitor Center, re-installing a repaired tower window, and packing up everything in the Visitor Center and returning it to winter storage. This year (2107) we have another busy year planned. Weather permitting (snow melts in time), we plan on opening up the Visitor Center on May 13th or 20th with a good cleaning and restocking the merchandise.

  • Ritual and Signature in Serial Sexual Homicide
    REGULAR ARTICLE Ritual and Signature in Serial Sexual Homicide Louis B. Schlesinger, PhD, Martin Kassen, MA, V. Blair Mesa, MA, and Anthony J. Pinizzotto, PhD Ritual and signature are fantasy-driven, repetitive crime scene behaviors that have been found to occur in serial sexual homicide. Notwithstanding numerous anecdotal case reports, ritual and signature have rarely been studied empirically. In a national sample of 38 offenders and their 162 victims, we examined behavioral and thematic consistency, as well as the evolution and uniqueness of these crime scene actions. The notion that serial sexual murderers engage in the same rituals and leave unique signatures at every scene was not supported by our data. In fact, the results suggest that the crime scene conduct of this group of offenders is fairly complex and varied. Implications of these findings for forensic assessments and criminal investigations are discussed.

  • Portrayals of Police and Crime in Japanese Anime and Manga
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Carolina Digital Repository ALL THE EVIL OF GOOD: PORTRAYALS OF POLICE AND CRIME IN JAPANESE ANIME AND MANGA By Katelyn Mitchell Honors Thesis Department of Asian Studies University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill April 23, 2015 Approved: INGER BRODEY (Student’s Advisor) 1 “All the Evil of Good”: Portrayals of Police and Crime in Japanese Anime and Manga By Katelyn Mitchell “Probity, sincerity, candor, conviction, the idea of duty, are things that, when in error, can turn hideous, but – even though hideous, remain great; their majesty, peculiar to the human conscience, persists in horror…Nothing could be more poignant and terrible than [Javert’s] face, which revealed what might be called all the evil of good” -Victor Hugo, Les Misérables Volume I, Book VIII, Chapter III: “Javert Satisfied” Abstract This thesis examines and categorizes the distinct, primarily negative, portrayals of law enforcement in Japanese literature and media, beginning with its roots in kabuki drama, courtroom narratives and samurai codes and tracing it through modern anime and manga. Portrayals of police characters are divided into three distinct categories: incompetents used as a source of comedy; bland and consistently unsuccessful nemeses to charismatic criminals, used to encourage the audience to support and favor these criminals; or cold antagonists fanatically devoted to their personal definition of ‘justice’, who cause audiences to question the system that created them. This paper also examines Western influences, such as Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes and Victor Hugo’s Inspector Javert, on these modern media portrayals.
