Why More Strict Compliance Is Not Enough to Avoid Tragedies Like Rajkot and Delhi Fires
No full textExcerpt:
\u27Fires in cities are more common than we think. We see these massive fires that claim several lives as few and far between. The gruesome cases in Rajkot and Delhi recently, following one after the other, are a wake-up call for anyone invested in the question of the future of our cities. The news always has a way of weighing the gravity of such events against the number of people who lost their lives. In these two fires, the shock value also comes from the fact that children and infants lost their lives. But there is more to these fires than we tend to see.\u2

No full textThis Note analyzes the NCAA’s new ‘Name, Image, and Likeness’ (“NIL”) guidelines and their impact on international student-athletes. The NCAA’s NIL guidelines allow student-athletes to profit off of their own name, image, and likeness, a benefit that would have made them ineligible to maintain their amateur status and compete in the NCAA two short years ago.1 While the NCAA’s NIL guidelines can generate substantial compensation for some of the NCAA’s most prolific student-athletes, international student-athletes are limited in the NIL opportunities they can enjoy based on various immigration restrictions.2 If an international student-athlete is found to be in violation of their employment restrictions, their student visa status will be terminated and they will be required to leave the United States immediately.3 This Note explores and recommends possible solutions to level the playing field among NCAA student-athletes, including expanding 8 C.F.R § 274a.12(b)(6) and defining NIL generated income as passive income for the purposes of 26 U.S.C. § 469(c
Crisis Standards of Care and Triage: Medico-Legal Conundrums
No full textThis Article investigates the character, nature, and application of Crisis Standards of Care ( CSC ) in national emergency preparedness plans. Ideally, these standards allow a government to codify frameworks or models for allocating scarce medical resources. The principal mechanism used by healthcare decision-makers to evaluate individuals seeking medical assistance is through triage-a diagnostic process utilizing algorithms to sort, grade, or select those who qualify for medical treatment. This Article studies the principles and values incorporated into these medical algorithms and concludes that more federal government leadership is required to convince the states that CSC are an integral part of emergency preparedness; and, secondly, that diagnostic algorithms must be used in an equitable manner that does not discriminate among the medically injured, the aged, or those with comorbidities

No full textThis essay brings to light a rare feature of the Stewart legal system. Grand jury charges remain understudied, partly for want of primary source materials. The brief historical and biographical sketches of the essay are appended by a unique and relevant artifact of the time: a preamble or exhortation to a grand jury charge, ostensibly delivered by a Justice of the King\u27s Bench, John Dodderidge
