During President Donald Trump's first months in office, he signed more than 120 executive orders. The Financial Times reports that more than 100 legal challenges have been filed against these, including by federal judges.Former president Joe Biden signed 162 orders during his 4-year term. During Trump's term from 2017 to 2021, he signed 220 orders.In eight years, Barack Obama signed 277 and George W. Bush signed 291.Tensions between the executive and judicial branches have come as the executive orders extend presidential power, including in cases involving deportation without due process, freedom of speech, state's rights, elections, federal aid, governmental operations, and federal governmental regulation.Some of Trump's orders– like firing of federal workers based on recommendations of the Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency– have been upheld by the US Supreme Court.Others, like altering birthright citizenship and banning transgender people in the military, have been blocked by multiple federal judges.It's not unusual for the judicial branch to prevent oversteps in executive power. A Supreme Court vote blocked former President Barack Obama's executive orders to grant legal status to four million immigrants who had lived in the US for more than five years in 2016.But legal experts say the number of orders issued, their scope, and the number that have been challenged are unusual.Different political analysts and court experts have issued opinions about whether the United States is in a constitutional crisis. Google Trends indicates public interest in the issue has increased since January.This week, we'll ask legal experts for their analysis on the balance of governmental powers and the impact of recent executive actions on constitutional rights.On this week's Noon Edition, we'll host a discussion about the perceived threats to the Constitution and civil liberties by the Trump administration and the state of Indiana.This Noon Edition will be held at the Indiana University Maurer School of Law. This event is free and open to the public.

State and federal laws in a wide variety of settings tend to support gender transition in children. This has given rise to religious liberty and parental rights lawsuits. Conflicts include parental objections to gender ideology in public school curricula, secret gender transitions in public schools, state conversion therapy bans, denials of parental custody, foster care, and adoption, and gender transition treatment in the healthcare context. This panel will explore the intersection of the transgender legal movement, religious freedom, and parental rights.Featuring:Prof. Ira Lupu, F.

The U.S. carceral system disproportionately harms racial minorities and people living in poverty. Penal abolitionist frameworks have helpfully reframed the conversation to foreground those harmful social consequences. But how do those consequences affect our understanding of work, and particularly work that is both criminalized and undertaken in order to survive? In this episode, Indiana University Maurer School of Law Professor Yvette Butler explains her concept of survival labor and why it should be included in our general understanding of work.

Americans have long persevered in the face of the national welfare system's inadequacies. But when a new challenge in the form of climate change emerges, how can the United States adapt its welfare programs to assist Americans? Author: Andrew Hammond, Professor of Law, Indiana University Maurer School of Law Host: Georgiana Soo (Volume 112 Podcast Editor) Technology Editors: Georgiana Soo (Volume 112 Podcast Editor, Al Malecha (Volume 112 Senior Technology Editor, Kiana Harkema (Volume 112 Technology Editor) Soundtrack: Composed and performed by Carter Jansen (Volume 110 Technology Editor) Note Abstract: In the United States, law condemns poor people to their fates in states. Where Americans live continues to dictate whether they can access cash, food, and medical assistance. What's more, immigrants, territorial residents, and tribal members encounter deteriorated corners of the American welfare state. Nonetheless, despite repeated retrenchment efforts, this patchwork of programs has proven remarkably resilient. Yet, the ability of the United States to meet its people's most basic needs now faces an unprecedented challenge: climate change. As extreme weather events like wildfires and hurricanes become more frequent and more intense, these climate-fueled disasters will displace and impoverish more people. How can the United States adapt its welfare programs to assist Americans in the face of this threat? This Article maps that uncharted territory. It contextualizes the climate crisis in our scholarly understanding of the U.S. welfare state. It then canvasses the myriad disaster provisions in each major welfare program. Equipped with an understanding of the status quo, the Article proceeds to evaluate how federal law has fared amid the recent spate of fires and floods. The Article attends to the role of Congress, weakened as it is by increased polarization and diminished capacity, and how the resulting delays and distortions in emergency relief have hampered the governmental response. The Article then brings state government into focus, and in doing so, demonstrates how assistance often excludes the most vulnerable Americans. The Article also extracts lessons from the pandemic response and applies them to climate adaptation of public benefits. The Article concludes with an agenda for how to adapt welfare programs to meet the climate crisis. That agenda starts and ends with the federal government, but it includes policies states, territories, and Tribes could implement if Congress and federal agencies do nothing or not enough. The Article repurposes what we know about how the U.S. welfare state functions now to inform what government should do next.

On June 16, the U.S. State Department discovered unauthorized access to its Exchange Online email services and reported it to Microsoft. Almost a month later, on July 11, Microsoft disclosed the attack, and attributed it to a China-based threat actor, which they call Storm-0558. The intrusion granted the hackers access to email accounts at the Commerce and State Departments, including Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo, among other targets. Although no classified information was compromised, the cyber espionage campaign comes at a time of tension between the U.S. and China.To discuss the significance of the latest cyber espionage campaign, Lawfare's Fellow in Technology Policy and Law, Eugenia Lostri, sat down with Asaf Lubin, Associate Professor of Law at Indiana University Maurer School of Law and a Visiting Professor at Columbia Law School. They talked about what different types of espionage campaigns tell us about tightening U.S.-China competition, how international law can address cyber espionage, and the options available for governments to respond to these type of incidents.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare.

Today we're going to be talking about information overload. How do we prevent information overload for business decision makers and how do we overcome those problems when they do occur? To answer this, Nana is joined on Build Value By Choice by Jonathan McPike, co-founder of Haven, a one-stop-shop app for small businesses. KEY TAKEAWAYS Small businesses are the backbone of our economy and the foundation of their communities. When a small business fails, the ripple effects hurt a lot of people. Haven is about supporting the small businesses that support all of us. Software is designed with large organizations in mind, and that creates a lot of headaches for small businesses. Co-Founders Luke Mongin and Jonathan McPike believed that small businesses deserved tools that were right-sized for them. Whatever information we need, we can get. But we forget that not all information is equally as important. So when we're looking at information to make decisions, we're often overloaded with information. Instead we need the relevant information available in one simple easy to use place.  By enabling systems to communicate and share information, businesses can eliminate manual tasks and allow data that would need to be manually input several times to be shared between systems. BEST MOMENTS‘A lot of times if you're a small business, you might be using software designed for larger companies'‘You need tools that are the right size for the job'‘You want all those core tools in one place and you want them speaking to each other'‘Most normal users will say this is too complicated and hard to use' EPISODE RESOURCES https://www.withhaven.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathanmcpike/ VALUABLE RESOURCESProductize ebookLeave your comments on the show's Facebook community page: https://www.facebook.com/BuildvaluebychoiceGet your free valuation here: https://bit.ly/get-free-valuationPodcast website: https://infhorizons.com/podcast/Don't forget to subscribe to the podcast and share it.

The Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA) provided a framework to conserve and protect endangered and threatened species and their habitats both domestically and abroad. According to the Center for Progressive Reform, at an April 2023 hearing of the Water, Wildlife and Fisheries Subcommittee of the House Natural Resources Committee, the conservative majority pushed no less than three Congressional Review Act (CRA) resolutions aimed at blocking ESA protections. In this episode of our Environmental Law series, host Craig Williams is joined by professor of environmental law, Robert L. Fischman from the Indiana University Maurer School of Law, as they spotlight ESA, its impact, and ESA reform.

Lecture summary: Just over a year ago, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) sought public comments on a bold and thoughtfully framed rule proposal for the enhancement and standardization of climate-related disclosure. It was a move that signaled to many that the US was finally responding to the global shift amongst investors and asset managers toward the integration of ESG data into fundamental value analysis. Today, however, as ESG issues in the US have become politically polarized and as litigation challenges loom large, the possibility of meaningful change appears more remote.Now is therefore an ideal time to spotlight the new ESG disclosure requirements in the UK and EU and, against this backdrop, to refute the claim that ESG disclosure involves “major questions” that transcend the SEC's longstanding and clear authority to impose new reporting requirements on publicly traded companies. The UK and EU experiences likewise provide valuable perspectives in connection with other hot-button issues in the US, including: closing the public-private disclosure gap, broadening the traditional concept of materiality, and imposing mandates that require real-time disclosure as opposed to disclosure primarily at periodic intervals.Donna M. Nagy is the C. Ben Dutton Professor of Law at Indiana University Maurer School of Law in Bloomington, Indiana, USA. She teaches and writes in the areas of securities litigation, securities regulation, and corporations, and has served for eight years as the law school's Executive Associate Dean. Her scholarship includes two co-authored books, one on the law of insider trading and a casebook on Securities Litigation, Enforcement, and Compliance. She has published extensively in distinguished law journals on matters including insider trading and fiduciary principles; securities disclosure and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) information; government officials and financial conflicts of interest; and securities enforcement remedies. She is also a frequent speaker on securities regulation and litigation topics at law schools and professional conferences. Professor Nagy is a member of the American Law Institute and served as a member of the National Adjudicatory Council of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and as an appointed member to the ABA Corporate Laws Committee. She began her teaching career in 1994, and prior to that, was an associate with Debevoise & Plimpton in Washington, D.C. She earned her law degree in 1989 from New York University School of Law and her BA in Political Science in 1986 from Vassar College.

In this episode, Jeff Harty and Professor Mark Janis delve into the world of design patents, discussing how they became part of the patent regime, challenges facing the protection of modern-day ornamental designs, and possible upcoming changes in design patent law in view of the “article of manufacture” requirement. They also look at specific cases and strategies for claiming and prosecuting design patent applications. In this episode, Jeff Harty and Mark Janis discuss: The evolution of design patents and how they found their home in the patent regime. The effects of Section 171 and imposing many of the requirements for utility patents on design patents. The “article of manufacture” requirement and its impact on protecting modern ornamental designs. Possible upcoming changes in design patent law. Key Takeaways: Design patents have been an awkward fit in a patent regime focused largely on technological inventions. Recently, the Federal Circuit Court has ruled that textual references to the article of manufacture in the title and in the claim could limit the scope of design patent protection. If you're going to have the textual matter limit the scope of your claim for infringement, surely, it would equally apply in a determination on patent validity.The Patent Office has not revised the guidelines for graphical user interfaces in years, but debate and discussion about the needed changes are happening now. “You hear reports of a global marketplace for user interface/user experience design in the billions and billions [of dollars]. It could be the key area of design and innovation in the future. To be sure, we could create rules that effectively would kick those designs out of the design patent regime if we cared that much about the language ‘article of manufacture.'” — Mark Janis   About Mark Janis: Mark D. Janis teaches courses in patents, trademarks, and other areas of intellectual property law. He is the Robert A. Lucas Chair of Law and the director of the Center for Intellectual Property Research at the Indiana University Maurer School of Law. Janis has authored a number of books, including the treatise IP and Antitrust (with Herbert Hovenkamp, Mark A. Lemley, Christopher R. Leslie, and Michael A.

What can a home-grown lawyer offer to rural healthcare? This week we are having a conversation with Elizabeth Burrows, the owner of Burrows Consulting Inc. A lawyer turned health consultant, she provides a unique perspective on rural health and policy.  What scares me the most about our future is finding providers or signing providers that are going to embrace living in rural areas -Elizabeth Burrows  Elizabeth is an alumnus of North Vermillion High School and graduated magna cum laude from DePauw University with a degree in Political Science and Communications where she studied abroad at Oxford University.  She went on to receive her Doctor of Jurisprudence from Indiana University Maurer School of Law.  Elizabeth worked at the Indiana State Department of Health as the Director of the State Office of Rural Health, where she more than tripled the amount of federal funding for critical access hospitals. Elizabeth then returned to Cayuga, her hometown, to start up and serve as the founding Chief Executive Officer of the Valley Professionals Community Health Center (previously the Vermillion-Parke Community Health Center), which grew over 1000% in the eight years she served as CEO.  During that time, Elizabeth started the first mobile school-based health center with leadership from Senator Lugar and his staff to serve rural schools.

In 2014, Elizabeth started her own business, Burrows Consulting, Inc. where she has assisted numerous rural health clinics, federally qualified health centers, institutions of higher education, critical access hospitals, rural health associations, and other non-profits attain over $92,000,000 in grant funding and over $100,000,000 in enhanced Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement and 340B Shared Savings.  She has worked with health care facilities in 28 states and created over fifteen new federally qualified health center entities.  Through her consulting business, she has also served as an Interim CEO for entities seeking FQHC designation.   She graduated from the Lugar Series for Excellence in Public Service, received the Governor's Award for Tomorrow's Leaders, is a 2011 National Rural Health Association Rural Health Fellow, and was given the DePauw University Alumni Community Leadership Award.  Elizabeth was named a Fellow for the National Leadership Academy of Public Health and is a member of the Indiana State Bar Association.  Elizabeth resides near her family farm in Vermillion County, Indiana, and enjoys spending time with her husband, Steve, and daughters, Eleanor age 12, and Amelia age 10.  Together, the four enjoy traveling, visiting Indiana and national historic sites, and competing at sheep shows. 

HyperDraft's Tony Thai knew he could produce a better method of practicing law and producing legal documents. He viewed processes more like an engineer than a lawyer and understood that there were more efficient ways to do the work, not for the sake of efficiency, but because like any good engineer, he was lazy. Or, as he describes himself, "aggressively lazy." Not lazy in the traditional sense, but rather lazy in the way that many of us understand that the current way of working is just wasting everyone's time, and there has to be an easier/better/faster way of doing it. So after months and years of waiting for the industry to find ways of creating a better process, and failing to actually do it, he jumped in and just did it himself. The idea that he'd been working on and developing to make his own corporate law work better, became his full-time gig and the launch of HyperDraft. This year his fellow BigLaw colleague, Sean Greaney joined HyperDraft as its first General Counsel. We talk about their journey to create a commercial product. Along the way we ask if creativity, innovation, and producing viable commercial products like HyperDraft means that lawyers at firms have to split off from that firm? The answer is a mix of yes, no, and maybe. One thing that both point out is that while the idea may be viable, a young associate really doesn't have the legal experience needed to understand the nuances involved in creating a deliverable that scales and fits the overall needs of the lawyer and the client. That's why Tony and Sean stuck around for a few more years to learn the in's and out's of the processes before leaving to launch HyperDraft. It's a lesson that many entrepreneur/lawyers may want to learn before launching their own startups. AALL Crystal Ball Questions: We recorded a number of crystal ball answers at this year's American Association of Law Libraries (AALL) annual conference in Denver. This week, Susan DeMaine from Indiana University Maurer School of Law looks at the effect that inflation is having on law schools and how she and other law school professors and administrators are needing to do to stay ahead of those effects.

BCR is talking about Sex Work. We spoke with a knowledgeable scholar whose recently published book “Policing Bodies” details her ethnographic study of the interaction of sex workers – the police – and the justice system of Johannesburg, South Africa. Prof. Thusi teaches in Bloomington at the Indiana University Maurer School of Law and at the Kinsey Institute. India has worked with the ACLU, Human Rights Watch, the Center for Constitutional Rights and The Opportunity Agenda. Early in her career – India clerked for the South African Constitutional Court – and was curious about the rough neighborhood down the block from the Court. Her two-year study of the interaction of Johannesburg police and that city's sex workers began in May of 2013. What India Thusi learned in South Africa may help us think more deeply about our own American attitudes on sex work. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

I absolutely love today's guest and she's the closest person I have to a sister. I asked my friend, Pamela Fierst-Walsh, to come on Brave Women at Work. Pam and I talked about how our friendship has supported us professionally over the years, what a Personal Board of Advisors is and why you may want to consider having one, and why friends often can't be on your board because they tell you what you want to hear rather than pushing you out of your comfort zone. Spoiler alert, I got lucky with Pam. She has no problem stretching and challenging me to use the logical part of my brain instead of my heart and intuition all of the time, for example! This was such a fun conversation and I learned things about Pam and our friendship that were new to me. I hope you enjoy this show and reflect on your own friendships as a result! About Pamela Fierst-Walsh: Pamela Fierst-Walsh is the Vice President of Traceability for PVH. Before that time, she was the Senior Advisor for the U.S. Department of State's team responsible for policy and implementation on conflict and critical minerals. She was also the U.S. representative to the Kimberley Process. Over the course of her career, Pamela has focused on critical national security issues, including security and counterterrorism issues, atrocities prevention, and humanitarian assistance. She has extensive experience in Africa, particularly the Horn. In her work on minerals, Pamela routinely engaged private sector counterparts on supply chain concerns and obligations under U.S. law.

Late last month, Apple sued the Israeli technology firm NSO Group under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. That's the federal law that criminalizes computer hacking and provides a civil cause of action for hacking victims. NSO Group is primarily known for its Pegasus spyware software, which it provides to many governments for their law enforcement and national security investigations. Apple is suing NSO Group because many of the devices that Pegasus is used against are Apple iOS devices. Apple's lawsuit is just the latest in what has been several bad years for NSO Group, which has come under increasing scrutiny, most notably for the use of its software in the killing of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi by the Saudi government, and for allegations that its products are used to commit a wide range of human rights abuses by authoritarian governments around the world. To talk through the merits of Apple's lawsuit, as well as its implications for the spyware industry and cybersecurity norms more generally, Alan Rozenshtein spoke with Orin Kerr, professor of law at the UC Berkeley School of Law, and Asaf Lubin associate professor of law at the Indiana University Maurer School of Law.

On September 17, the LEC held a co-sponsored webinar with Indiana University Bloomington's Maurer School of Law on two new books that critically examine new ideas about migration, secession, and political freedom. Professor of Law at George Mason University Antonin Scalia Law School, Ilya Somin, argues for the expansion of people's ability to “vote with their feet” across domestic and international boundaries in his book Free to Move. Timothy Waters, Professor of Law and Val Nolan Faculty Fellow at Indiana University Maurer School of Law and Associate Director of the Center for Constitutional Democracy, argues for a radical rethink of the opposition to secession asking in his book Boxing Pandora if secession is dangerous, or a pathway to stability? Tune in to this episode of The Marketplace of Ideas to hear both authors present their arguments, and Professor Sanford Levinson, W. St. John Garwood, Jr. Centennial Chair and Professor of Government at The University of Texas at Austin School of Law, comment on both books.

I spoke with a panel of industry leaders in a virtual roundtable about where the legal field is headed and asked for their advice on navigating prospective 2017 challenges.

From cybersecurity and global policy uncertainty to changes in the selection of outside counsel and career services aligning with admissions, descriptions of a destabilizing market were tempered with a recognition of the opportunities ahead.
