The Dormant Commerce Clause and the Dubious Constitutionality of State Regulation of Social Media
Get PDFThere is growing recognition in the medical community that social media applications are harmful to mental health, particularly for young people. Researchers have observed an inverse relationship between social media use and various measures of psychological well-being. The testimony of former Meta insiders like Frances Haugen and Arturo Béjar has brought the issue into the political mainstream, highlighting the fact that social media operators are aware of the harmful effects of their products. Although the exact mechanisms are still under study, the prevailing theories suggest that the very structure of social media applications promotes unhealthy, and potentially addictive, habits among users.

Assessing Standing in FDA v. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine
Get PDFLast week the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in FDA v. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine. This case arose out of a challenge to the FDA’s authorization of mifepristone, one of the two drugs currently approved for use in medication abortions. The Supreme Court considered two issues: first, whether the respondents had Article III standing to challenge the FDA’s 2016 and 2021 actions with respect to mifepristone’s approved conditions of use, and second, whether the “FDA’s 2016 and 2021 actions were arbitrary and capricious.” In 2016, the FDA loosened restrictions around the authorization and use of mifepristone, including eliminating the requirement for prescribers to report all nonfatal serious adverse events, extending the period in which it can be used from 7 weeks to 10 weeks, eliminating the requirement that administration of mifepristone occurs in-clinic, removing the requirement for an in-person follow-up exam, and allowing healthcare providers other than physicians to dispense chemical abortion drugs. In 2021, the FDA removed the requirement that mifepristone be prescribed and dispensed in person.

No full textDerrick Hamilton, Deputy Director of the Perlmutter Center for Legal Justice, Featured in The Guardian About Ex-Detective Louis Scarcella, Who Put Him Behind Bars For a Crime He Did Not Commit
“Scarcella was a product of the time,” Hamilton said. “When he called you a murderer or a killer, people really believed him. That’s my biggest thing with him: he was given the ability to close cases, and it didn’t matter whether he did it within the framework of the Constitution or whether or not people actually got justice.
Regulating Forensic Investigative Genetic Genealogy: The Case for Judicial Oversight and the Bipartisan Model Legislation Passed in Maryland
No full textThe Status of the ICJ Case of Ukraine v. Russia
Get PDFWhen Russia launched its full-scale invasion of eastern Ukraine on February 24, 2022, Russia claimed that the use of force in Ukraine was justified since Ukraine was committing genocide. Within a few days, Ukraine filed a petition with the International Court of Justice (ICJ). Ukraine evoked the ICJ’s jurisdiction under Article IX of the Genocide Convention, which provides the ICJ with jurisdiction to resolve “[d]isputes between the Contracting Parties relating to the interpretation, application or fulfillment of the present Convention, including those relating to the responsibility of a State for genocide or for any of the other acts enumerated in article III ….” The case is currently still in the jurisdictional phase. Russia is claiming that, because Ukraine is seeking a decision from the ICJ on Russia’s use of force, rather than any determination related to genocide, the ICJ does not have jurisdiction over the dispute under Article IX of the Genocide Convention.
