2. Administrative Law : A Lifecycle Approach
- Author

Jamelle C. Sharpe and Jamelle C. Sharpe
- Abstract
Through thoughtful organization, careful material selection, and hundreds of practice questions, Administrative Law: A Lifecycle Approach, by Dean Jamelle C. Sharpe, trains students to thoroughly understand the law and theory underpinning the modern administrative state. At its core, administrative law is a process-driven course. Nevertheless, traditional casebooks are organized around legal concepts and doctrines rather than the basic stages of administrative decision-making. This casebook improves on the traditional model by following the major steps in the administrative process, thereby providing students with ample grounding in the law and practice governing it. In addition to featuring seminal administrative law decisions, Administrative Law: A Lifecycle Approach incorporates a variety of agency-oriented materials—government reports, charts, diagrams, orders—that give students a fuller sense of how the administrative state's organization and operations. These carefully edited materials model how skilled jurists and administrative lawyers go about their work, how legal problems with that work arise, and how administrative, judicial, and political processes have developed to address them. Critically, this casebook also provides numerous opportunities for guided review, synthesis, analysis, and application of salient legal concepts to facilitate student learning. Dozens of questions, as many or more than any other casebook on the market, place students in the position of lawyers tasked with navigating the administrative landscape. New to the Second Edition: Updated cases. Updated developments in regulatory policy and practices. Professors and students will benefit from: In comparison with casebooks that focus almost exclusively on appellate decisions from Article III courts, this book emphasizes the lifecycle of the administrative decision-making process to place the legal doctrines typically covered by the administrative law course in a clearer practical context. Examples of agency work product and descriptions of agency organization and operations are strategically placed throughout the book. The book also provides explanatory introductions to most topics and describes basic and recurring fact patterns that lawyers encounter when dealing with the issues of administrative law and policy. Most administrative law casebooks are comprised almost entirely of the most unusual or factually complex cases. While there is certainly value in asking students to wrestle with such cases, Administrative Law: A Lifecycle Approach substitutes them for more readily accessible materials of equal or greater instructional value. Where the inclusion of complex cases is unavoidable—as is the case with several seminal decisions— this casebook provides introductory explanations to give students much needed guidance on their meaning and key concepts. Additionally, Administrative Law: A Lifecycle Approach includes other agency-oriented materials—reports, charts, diagrams, opinions—to give students a fuller, unmediated sense of administrative work product. Administrative Law: A Lifecycle Approach also takes a different approach to questions. The questions in traditional casebooks typically focus on issues that are tangential to the materials they follow, or pinpoint conceptual knots that academics spend their careers attempting to unravel. Inspired by Bloom's Taxonomy, the questions in Administrative Law: A Lifecycle Approach focus instead on testing, reinforcing, and extending students'understanding of the administrative law and concepts featured throughout the book. It accordingly provides numerous problems that prompt students to apply what they have learned and to produce the types of analysis expected of skilled

- Abstract
Administrative Law: Cases and Materials is the product of a longstanding collaboration by a distinguished group of authors, each with extensive experience in the teaching, scholarship, and practice of administrative law. The Ninth Edition preserves the book's distinctive features of functional organization and extensive use of case studies, with no sacrifice in doctrinal comprehensiveness or currency. By organizing over half of the book under the generic administrative functions of policymaking, adjudication, enforcement, and licensing, the book illuminates the common features of diverse administrative practices and the interconnection of otherwise disparate doctrines. Scattered throughout the book, case studies present leading judicial decisions in their political, legal, institutional, and technical context, thereby providing the reader with a much fuller sense of the reality of administrative practice and the important policy implications of seemingly technical legal doctrines. At the same time, the Ninth Edition fully captures the headline-grabbing nature of federal administrative practice in today's politically divided world. New to the 9th Edition: Extensive coverage of the Major Questions Doctrine and the decline of Chevron Expanded coverage of presidential policy initiatives including Executive Orders on immigration and Student Loan Debt Forgiveness. Updated coverage of standing to secure judicial review and the timing of judicial review especially when a party challenges an agency's structure as unconstitutional. Updated coverage of the agency deliberation exception to the Freedom of Information Act. A new focus on issues concerning the propriety of agency adjudication and the denial of the right to a jury in private rights disputes. Professors and students will benefit from: The “case study” approach illuminates the background policy and organizational context of many leading cases. The functional organization of materials in Part Two enables instructors to show how doctrinal issues are shaped by functional context. The theoretical material presented at the beginning of the book provides a useful template for probing issues throughout the course. The book is designed to be easily adaptable for use as an advanced course and in schools that have a first-year Legislation and Regulation course, especially with enhanced coverage of recurring issues that arise in agency adjudications. The units are organized so that many class sessions can focus on a single leading case, reducing the problem of “factual overload” that characterizes many administrative law courses. The case study approach helps students understand the context within which doctrinal issues arise and the way in which those issues affect important matters of public policy. The organization of Part Two conveys a deeper understanding of the characteristic functions performed by administrative agencies.

- Abstract
'This treatise provides a comprehensively updated analysis of administrative law in the United States, placing special emphasis on topics undergoing significant evolution or transformation in the Supreme Court and federal courts of appeals. These include, for example, the latest developments in Congress's authority to delegate legislative authority to agencies, deference to agency legal interpretations, the so-called'major questions doctrine,'modern due process issues, and the presidential appointments power. The fundamental purposes of this book are to assess and explain the current state of the core doctrines of administrative law, place the most important aspects of those doctrines in a historical context, and identify important trends that can help readers understand how the doctrines may continue to evolve. The book is intended to serve practitioners, scholars, and students of administrative law.'--Publisher

5. A History of Securities Law in the Supreme Court

- Securities--United States
- Abstract
A History of Securities Law and the Supreme Court explores how the Supreme Court has made (and remade) securities law. It covers the history of the federal securities laws from their inception during the Great Depression, relying on the justices'conference notes, internal memoranda, and correspondence to shed light on how they came to their decisions and drafted their opinions. That history can be divided into five periods that parallel and illustrate key trends of the Court's jurisprudence more generally. The first saw the administration of Franklin Delano Roosevelt--aided by his filling eight seats on the Court-triumph in its efforts to enact the securities laws and establish their constitutional legitimacy. This brought an end to the Court's long-standing hostility to the regulation of business. The arrival of Roosevelt's justices, all committed to social control of finance, ushered in an era of deference to the SEC's expertise that lasted through the 1940s and 1950s. The 1960s brought an era of judicial activism-and further expansion--by the Warren Court, with purpose taking precedence over text in statutory interpretation. The arrival of Lewis F. Powell, Jr. in 1972 brought a sharp reversal. Powell's leadership of the Court in securities law produced a counter-revolution in the field and an end to the SEC's long winning streak at the Court. Powell's retirement in 1987 marked the beginning of the final period of this study. In the absence of ideological consensus or strong leadership, the Court's securities jurisprudence meandered, taking a random walk between expansive and restrictive decisions.

“Wise and illuminating…Merrill's treatment of the rise of Chevron, and its various twists and turns over the decades, is keenly insightful.” —Cass R. Sunstein, New York Review of Books“Merrill is one of the brightest and best scholars of administrative law in his generation. This book...is must-reading for any citizen who has an interest in the constitutionality of the administrative state.” —Steven G. Calabresi, Northwestern University Pritzker School of Law“A model of how to conduct rigorous, level-headed, and fair-minded analysis of a subject that has generated enormous legal controversy. There is no more judicious mind among American legal scholars than Thomas Merrill's.”—Nicholas Parrillo, Yale Law School“A must-read for practicing or prospective administrative lawyers. They, as well as a broader audience, will find much good sense in the author's judicious treatment of perennial questions of lawful government.”—Michael S. Greve, Claremont Review of BooksThe Constitution makes Congress the principal federal lawmaker. But for a variety of reasons, including partisan gridlock, Congress increasingly fails to keep up with the challenges facing our society. Power has shifted to the executive branch agencies that interpret laws and to the courts that review their interpretations.Since the Supreme Court's 1984 decision in Chevron v. Natural Resources Defense Council, this judicial review has been highly deferential: courts must uphold agency interpretations of unclear laws so long as these are “reasonable.” But the Chevron doctrine faces backlash from constitutional scholars and, now, from Supreme Court justices who insist that courts, not administrative agencies, have the authority to say what the law is. Critics of the administrative state charge that Chevron deference enables unaccountable bureaucratic power. In this groundbreaking book, Thomas Merrill reviews the history and consequences of the Chevron doctrine and suggests a way forward.

Vor dem Hintergrund dieser Debatte über den Stand und die Zukunft des deutschen Steuerverfassungsrechts vergleicht Iris Schomäcker den Einfluss des Verfassungsrechts auf den gesetzgeberischen Gestaltungsraum in Deutschland und den USA, wo das Verfassungsrecht mit Blick auf das Steuerrecht deutlich zurückhaltender gehandhabt wird. Um die Auswirkungen des Steuerverfassungsrechts auf den gesetzgeberischen Gestaltungsraum greifbar zu machen, erstreckt sich die Analyse auch auf die Grundzüge des Einkommensteuerrechts beider Länder.

- Abstract
Das Spannungsverhältnis zwischen Einheit und Vielfalt durchzieht und charakterisiert föderale Systeme. Holger P. Hestermeyer arbeitet dieses anhand des Gegensatzpaares Eigenständigkeit und Homogenität auf. Dabei werden die föderalen Systeme Deutschlands, der USA und der EU verglichen und der Vergleich um den historischen Kontext bereichert. Vier, die Eigenständigkeit der Gliedstaaten betonende Topoi und drei, die Verfassungsräume eines föderalen Systems homogenisierende Mechanismen werden untersucht, Verfassungsrhetorik von Verfassungsrealität getrennt und gezeigt, welches Gleichgewicht zwischen zentripetalen und zentrifugalen Kräften die Systeme gefunden haben. Dabei geht der Verfasser davon aus, dass keine'optimale'Balance zwischen den beiden Polen existiert, sondern vielmehr jede Generation für sich neu entscheiden muss, welches Maß an Homogenität und welches Maß an Eigenständigkeit der Gliedstaaten ihr angemessen erscheint.

- Abstract
Das Schwerpunktthema des Bandes 64 (2016) betrifft das Verhältnis von Amt und Person: Wie werden Ämter durch Individuen geprägt, wie wirken Ämter auf Amtsträger zurück? Die Abhandlungen des Schwerpunktthemas behandeln diese Fragen sowohl in einer allgemeinen, strukturellen als auch in einer gewaltenspezifischen, rechtsvergleichenden und historischen Perspektive. Das diesjährige Debattenthema fragt, ob Steuerrecht zur Innovationsressource des Verfassungsrechts geworden ist - anknüpfend an die Beobachtung, dass es heute oft steuerrechtliche Fälle sind, die die Verfassungsdogmatik fortbilden. Führt die Konstitutionalisierung des Steuerrechts zu einer Sonderdogmatik, stören steuerrechtlich motivierte Kriterien die allgemeine Verfassungsdogmatik oder ist alles gut, wie es ist? Auch in der Rubrik Aufsätze und Abhandlungen reagieren zahlreiche Texte auf aktuelle Probleme und Streitfragen. Bei den Porträts und Erinnerungen wird insbesondere Hans F. Zachers gedacht und unter den auslandsrechtlichen Abhandlungen setzen diesmal Beiträge japanischer Autoren einen besonderen Akzent.

- Abstract
Fiduciary duties are widely viewed as essential to myriad private relationships, including guardianships, employment relationships, trusts, business organizations, and professional relationships. Recently, legal scholars and courts have devoted increasing attention to the application of fiduciary principles to public officials and public institutions. Some have argued that fiduciary relationships are unified by a common structure, but courts and commentators typically treat each fiduciary relationship as distinct. As a result, fiduciary law is often viewed as fragmented. The Research Handbook on Fiduciary Law shows that fiduciary law can be a distinctive field of study in its own right. This timely work presents important accounts of fiduciary relationships and new ideas on how fiduciary law can be explained. Coverage includes discussion of fiduciary obligations, fiduciary remedies, the role of equity and trusts, and public fiduciary law. A number of comparative perspectives are introduced to highlight similarities and differences between leading jurisdictions. The chapters in this Research Handbook help to show why this subject has drawn so many distinctive points of view, and sheds new light on a multi-faceted and rapidly growing field of study.This Research Handbook will be of interest to readers concerned with both the theory and practice of fiduciary law, as it incorporates significant new insights and developments in the field. It will also act as a starting point of new inquiry for those looking to contribute to the field themselves. Contributors include: S.M. Bainbridge, S.L. Bray, C.M. Bruner, M. Conaglen, E.J.

Written by leading scholars and judges, the Research Handbook on Representative Shareholder Litigation is a modern-day survey of the state of this essential field. The book is an important and timely contribution by leading corporate law scholars, judges, and practitioners, seeking to better understand and explain the proliferation of shareholder litigation across the globe.

It also surveys how related issues are addressed across the globe, with a special focus on parallel forms of litigation in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, the European Union, Israel and China.

State and federal agencies are deeply involved in the financing and delivery of health care. They address public health, licensure of professionals and facilities and financing health care services through public health insurance programs. The reach of administrative law governing state and federal healthcare agencies is immense and immensely important to the financing and delivery of American health care.

- Abstract
Promises of justice and equality made in the U.S. Constitution, numerous Amendments, and decisions of the Supreme Court are hallmarks of American civil rights. Yet the realities of inequality remain facts of modern life for too many Native Americans, African Americans, and Latino Americans, even though state-mandated racial segregation has been outlawed for years. Women still face a variety of forms of discrimination—some subtle and others more overt. There remain many laws that treat people differently because of sexual orientation. People with disabilities are supposed to be protected by a variety of statutes, but many of these policies remain unfulfilled promises. These are just some of the many challenges of civil rights that persist in a nation that proudly points to the words above the entrance to the U.S. Supreme Court that read'Equal Justice Under Law.'This text is for current and future public service professionals —whether they are in government agencies, in nonprofit organizations that provide social services for government, or contractors who operate as state actors—who increasingly serve diverse communities with a range of complex challenges, while working and managing within organizations that, fortunately, are themselves more diverse than ever before. For those who work and serve in such settings, civil rights is not an abstract academic study, but a critically important and very practical fact of daily life. This book may also be used on civil rights law, policy, and public administration courses, and each chapter ends with a section on ‘Issues for Policy and Practice'to guide an examination of key public policy hurdles in the fight for civil rights as well as the implications for public service practice. Through an engaging exploration of edited court cases, legislation, and speeches, the reader is encouraged to think critically about civil rights law and policy pertaining to African Americans, Native Americans, Latinos/Latinas, gender, sexual orientation, and disabilities, to learn what civil rights require, but also to come to a more empathetic understanding of how different groups of people experience civil rights and the unique challenges they face.

- Abstract
Gambling, once widely outlawed, is now a regulated, taxed activity that is legal in some form - bingo, card games, slot machines, state-run lotteries, casinos -- in all but two states. State governments have the main responsibility for overseeing gambling, but Congress historically has played a significant role in shaping the industry. Since passage of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act in 2006, congressional focus has moved to remote gambling. Remote gambling refers to gambling that does not occur in a casino, bingo hall, or store selling lottery tickets. Remote gambling includes gambling over the Internet as well as gambling using devices that may communicate by other means, such as by telephone or direct satellite links. This book explores the rise of remote gaming and its potential implications for the broader gambling industry, including traditional and tribal gaming.

- Abstract
Controlling shareholders have largely unbalanced power in the governance structure of corporations, which leaves the minority shareholders vulnerable to being exploited. One way to deal with the problem is to allow minority shareholders to sue a controlling shareholder when they think they have been treated unfairly by the said controlling shareholder, and the challenged conduct will be reviewed by court under certain standard pre-set by law. Legal practitioners and economists consider this kind of solution a standard-based strategy. This book discusses how to use these standard-based strategies most efficiently when dealing with conflicts between controlling and minority shareholders. The book identifies three sub-issues that need to be addressed properly by law makers for a standard-based strategy to function in an efficient way: (1) What is the substantive standard of controlling shareholder conduct?; (2) How should the standard be enforced by court?; and (3) How to choose between standard-based strategies and other regulatory strategies? The book examines these three questions through studies of three individual jurisdictions: the US, the UK, and China.

- Abstract
This unique book provides a comprehensive account of the patent misuse doctrine and its relationship with antitrust law. Created to remedy and discourage misconduct by patent owners a century ago, its proper role today is debated more than ever before. Innovation and competition take place in increasingly complex environments that demand a clear understanding of where illegality ends and legitimate corporate strategy begins.The book is an essential resource for the curious, the expert and all those engaged in deciding what patent misuse means and should mean today. In addition to in-depth doctrinal and policy perspectives, it looks at patent misuse through the eyes of today's leading practitioners, judges, government officials and academics. It also presents a qualitative analysis of modern misuse case law spanning 1953 to 2012. The result is a compelling account that lays out an important doctrinal, policy and empirical framework for future cases and scholarship.Patent law students and scholars will find the author's comprehensive study of popular and actual perceptions of the misuse doctrine a valuable resource, while practitioners, government officials and judges will appreciate the predictive value of the author's findings.

The value of a business is more than ever a reflection of the value of the company's ideas, which makes trade secrets an increasingly important part of this equation. Trade Secrets: Law and Practice is the first legal treatise to cover the subject from a trial lawyer's perspective, and it should be on the desk of every firm litigator and in-house counsel involved in the protection of trade secrets. Written by two highly experienced trial lawyers, David Quinto and Stuart Singer, Trade Secrets: Law and Practice assembles case law analysis and strategic advice on prosecuting and defending trade secret misappropriation actions, maintaining legally sufficient trade secret protection measures, and supervising outside attorneys in the course of litigation. This Second Edition contains a new overview of litigation burdens, presumptions and inferences; a comprehensive analysis of the applicability of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) to trade secret misappropriation claims; the latest developments in the evolving approaches to the Uniform Trade Secrets Act (UTSA) preemption of common law and state statutory claims; and an expanded state-by-state analysis of trade secret litigation. This book is an invaluable resource for both firm-based litigators and in-house attorneys. It sets a new standard for the insightful analysis of U.S. trade secret law and practice.

On the other hand there is extensive analysis of more recent developments and of current issues raised by recent court cases. The book combines coverage of Korean corporate law and Korean financial law and includes detailed examination of corporate law issues such as director liability, minority shareholder protection, and the dynamic practice area of mergers and acquisitions, and of financial law topics, including private equity, structured finance and foreign financial institutions. A rich and extensive resource with insight from leading scholars and practitioners, Korean Business Law will be of great benefit both to lawyers who have clients with business interests in Korea, and to scholars of international corporate law and governance.
