Glasofer Law and Sexuality AWR Final Draft May 2, 2010 The Supremes on Religion: How Do the Justices’ Religious Beliefs Influence their Legal Opinions? This discussion is essentially an inquiry into the effect which religious beliefs have on the jurisprudence of the highest court of the land, the United States Supreme Court. With regard to actually creating laws, the Supreme Court wields an incredible amount of influence over the judiciary by way of precedent in federal courts, and persuasive authority in state courts. However, decisions by the most famed court in the country also mold and form the political and social climate of eras. Supreme Court decisions have defined our nation’s history, for example in US v. Nixon1 or Roe v. Wade.2 Thus, it seems worthwhile to explore the considerations taken into account by the Justices when they craft opinions which will inevitably shape the course of our national and personal histories. It is true that the religious beliefs of the people of the United States and their elected officials also play a leading role in the creation of laws which affect our lives; and people are entitled to be governed and live by the rules which they chose for society.

Rutledge LAURA KRUGMAN RAY Justice John Paul Stevens, now starting his thirty-third full term on the Supreme Court, served as law clerk to Justice Wiley B. Rutledge during the Court’s 1947 Term. That experience has informed both elements of Stevens’s jurisprudence and aspects of his approach to his institutional role. Like Rutledge, Stevens has written powerful opinions on issues of individual rights, the Establishment Clause, and the reach of executive power in wartime. Stevens has also, like Rutledge, been a frequent author of dissents and concurrences, choosing to express his divergences from the majority rather than to vote in silence. Within his chambers, Stevens has in many ways adopted his own clerkship experience in preference to current models. Unlike the practices of most of his colleagues, Stevens hires fewer clerks, writes his own first drafts, and shares certiorari decisionmaking with his clerks.

JAFFREE DREW MCGEHRIN Spring 2013 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for baccalaureate degrees in Religious Studies and History with interdisciplinary honors in Religious Studies and History Reviewed and approved* by the following: Anne C. Rose Distinguished Professor of History and Religious Studies Thesis Supervisor On-cho Ng Professor of History, Asian Studies, and Philosophy Honors Adviser in Religious Studies Michael Milligan Director of Undergraduate Studies Head of Undergraduate History Intern Program Senior Lecturer in History Second Reader and Honors Adviser in History * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT This thesis investigates the 1985 Supreme Court decision Wallace v. Jaffree. The case originated in a lawsuit against the State of Alabama by Ishmael Jaffree, an agnostic African American who challenged Governor George Wallace and two Alabama school prayer statutes. The first, enacted in 1981, instructed public schools to allocate time during the school day for a moment of silence for “voluntary prayer.” The second, passed in 1982, instructed teachers to lead their classes in a specific prayer approved by the Alabama State Legislature. Jaffree argued that these laws violated the First Amendment rights of his children, who were students in the Mobile public school system. In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court declared the Alabama statutes unconstitutional under the Establishment Clause. The Court rejected Wallace’s states’ rights argument against the incorporation of the First Amendment.

  • PITTSBURGH's GEORGE SHIRAS, JR. and the INCOME TAX CASE of 1895 Harvey Gresham Hudsp
    THE CASE OF THE “VACILLATING JURIST”: PITTSBURGH’S GEORGE SHIRAS, JR. AND THE INCOME TAX CASE OF 1895 Harvey Gresham Hudspeth Mississippi Valley State University ABSTRACT This paper examines the mystery behind the case of Pollock v. Farmers’ Loan and Trust. Better known as the “Income Tax Case,” the question of the legal ity of the nation’s first peacetime income tax came before the Supreme Court in March 1895. Initially deadlocked four to four, the Court sched uled a second hearing with its ninth justice, Howell Jackson, now in attendance. In May, the Court ruled live to four against the tax. Insofar as Jackson flivored the tax, one of the justices who initially supported the tax obviously changed his vote. This paper examines the mystery behind the “vacillating jurist.” Introduction The Road to Pollock It was perhaps the greatest unsolved mystery of Supreme Court history. In 1895, the Court was asked to rule on the constitutionality of the federal income tax provision of the 1894 Wilson-Gorman Tariff Act. Prior to that time, the United States had oniy employed such a tax once before and that was during the Civil War. In the 1881 case of Springer v. United States, the Supreme Court declared the tax to be legal in that it was “indirect” and therefore did not have to be apportioned evenly amongst the states as was required by the Constitution. Citing the Court’s 1796 decision in Hylton v. United States, the Justices declared that the only taxes prohibited by the Constitution were “capitation taxes.. .and taxes on real estate.” In Springer, the Court had to rule on a tax imposed in the midst of the crisis atmosphere of national rebellion.
