United States Supreme Court case
POPULARITY
This Day in Legal History: United States v. Carolene Products Co. DecidedOn April 25, 1938, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its decision in United States v. Carolene Products Co., 304 U.S. 144, a seemingly mundane case about a federal law banning the interstate shipment of “filled milk.” But beneath its surface lay one of the most consequential footnotes in American constitutional history. The Court upheld the statute under a rational basis review, affirming Congress's authority to regulate economic activity. However, in Footnote Four of the majority opinion, Justice Harlan Fiske Stone proposed a bold and lasting idea: not all legislation should be treated equally when it comes to judicial review.Stone suggested that while economic regulations would generally be upheld if they had a rational basis, laws that appeared to conflict with specific constitutional prohibitions or aimed at "discrete and insular minorities" might require stricter scrutiny. This footnote planted the seed for what would become the modern system of tiered judicial scrutiny—rational basis, intermediate scrutiny, and strict scrutiny—used to assess the constitutionality of laws under the Equal Protection and Due Process Clauses.Though Footnote Four was not binding, it became one of the most cited and influential passages in constitutional law. It signaled a shift away from the Lochner-era deference to economic liberty and toward more robust judicial protection of civil rights and liberties. The idea that courts have a special role in protecting politically powerless groups fundamentally shaped later decisions in cases involving racial discrimination, free speech, and voting rights.In this way, a case about dairy regulation became a cornerstone of modern constitutional doctrine. Carolene Products illustrates how even minor legal disputes can produce major legal revolutions—one footnote at a time.In a rare display of bipartisan unity, the U.S. government is making significant legal advances against Big Tech, with Meta and Google facing tough antitrust scrutiny in simultaneous court cases. In separate proceedings in a Washington federal courthouse, the FTC is attempting to break up Meta, while the DOJ is pressing Google over illegal monopoly practices, including deals to pre-install its AI on smartphones. These efforts reflect years of legal groundwork laid across both the Trump and Biden administrations, showing that concerns over Big Tech's power and influence transcend party lines—even if the motivations differ. While Democrats emphasize market concentration and data control, Republicans have focused on censorship and political bias. Despite court momentum, legislative action remains stalled, hindered by political polarization and disagreements over broader issues like content moderation and China policy. The bipartisan front could fracture as political dynamics shift, especially with Trump signaling a more cooperative stance toward tech companies–or at least a willingness to extract rents from them.Meta, Google Hammered in Court in Sign of Rare Left-Right Unity - BloombergThe American Bar Association (ABA) laid off over 300 employees after the Trump administration cut $69 million in federal grant funding, according to a new lawsuit filed by the ABA against the Department of Justice. The organization alleges the cuts were politically motivated retaliation for its support of diversity initiatives and criticism of the administration. The terminated grants had funded legal aid programs for domestic violence victims and immigrants, as well as global rule of law initiatives. The layoffs affected about a third of the ABA's staff, including workers in its South Texas ProBar program and international legal development projects. The DOJ ended the grants shortly after barring its attorneys from participating in ABA events. The ABA is being represented by Democracy Forward in the suit, which also names Attorney General Pam Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche as defendants.ABA Lays Off 300 Employees, Blaming Trump Grant Funding Cuts (1)Richard Lawson, the lawyer defending President Trump's executive orders targeting law firms, has faced repeated courtroom defeats while offering vague, evasive answers under judicial questioning. In four separate cases, courts have temporarily blocked Trump's orders, which aimed to punish firms like Perkins Coie and WilmerHale for their roles in legal actions against him by revoking security clearances and threatening government contracts. Judges have openly criticized the orders as retaliatory and politically motivated. Despite this, Lawson has often appeared alone in court, prompting speculation that even the Justice Department is reluctant to back the arguments he's tasked with presenting. His vague responses and visible discomfort have drawn scrutiny, especially given his political ties to Attorney General Pam Bondi and his role at the pro-Trump America First Policy Institute. While some law firms have settled by agreeing to large pro bono commitments, others are pushing forward in court, where permanent injunctions against the executive orders now seem likely.Trump Attorney for Big Law Attacks Says Little as Losses Rack UpIn a piece for Forbes earlier this week, I argue that the state and local tax (SALT) deduction is fundamentally flawed and difficult to defend. Though often framed as a benefit to the middle class or a protection against double taxation, the deduction overwhelmingly favors wealthy households and creates inequities in the federal tax system. It allows states to impose high taxes without facing full political accountability, effectively outsourcing part of the cost to the federal government. The 2017 cap of $10,000 was a step in the right direction, and data shows that repealing it would benefit primarily the top 20% of earners—not typical working families. Unlike other personal expenses like rent or groceries, which aren't deductible, SALT gets special treatment without clear justification. If we care about fairness, progressivity, and honest budgeting, it's time to seriously consider scrapping the deduction altogether.Reconsidering The SALT Deduction: Is It Defensible?This week's closing theme is the final section of Finlandia, Op. 26, by the Finnish composer Jean Sibelius, performed here in its piano version. Composed in 1899 during a time of intense political censorship and rising nationalist sentiment, Finlandia was Sibelius's defiant musical response to Russian oppression. The tone poem was originally part of a series of historical tableaux performed as a protest against censorship, with Finlandia serving as the rousing finale.While the early passages of Finlandia are turbulent and stormy—meant to evoke struggle—the final section is a striking contrast: serene, solemn, and deeply moving. This lyrical closing, often referred to as the Finlandia Hymn, became an unofficial anthem of Finnish resistance and later a national symbol of unity and perseverance. In this week's selection, we hear a solo piano arrangement that strips the music to its essence, allowing the melody's dignity and quiet strength to shine through.Sibelius once said, “Music begins where the possibilities of language end,” and in Finlandia's final moments, words do indeed fall away. What remains is a profound expression of hope and resilience—qualities that have made this music resonate far beyond Finland's borders. Though Sibelius composed in the late Romantic tradition, his voice is unmistakably his own: direct, elemental, and rooted in the landscape and soul of his homeland.As we close out the week, let Finlandia remind us that even in times of turbulence, grace and resolve can still find their voice.

This Day in Legal History: LochnerOn April 17, 1905, the U.S. Supreme Court decided Lochner v. New York, a landmark case in American constitutional law that struck down a New York law limiting bakery workers to a 60-hour workweek and 10-hour workday. The Court ruled in a 5-4 decision that the law violated the Fourteenth Amendment's Due Process Clause by interfering with the freedom of contract between employers and employees. Justice Rufus Peckham, writing for the majority, held that the state had overreached its police powers because the law did not have a sufficient connection to health or safety.This decision launched what is known as the “Lochner era,” a period lasting into the 1930s during which the Supreme Court routinely struck down economic regulations on the basis that they infringed upon economic liberties. Critics of the ruling saw it as judicial activism favoring corporate interests over workers' rights, while supporters viewed it as a defense of individual liberty and limited government.Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. wrote a famous dissent, arguing that the Constitution does not enshrine any particular economic theory and warning against the Court imposing its own views on legislation. His dissent later became influential in shaping modern constitutional jurisprudence.The Lochner decision has since been largely discredited and is no longer considered good law, but it remains a critical case in debates over substantive due process, judicial restraint, and economic regulation.Google is facing a class action lawsuit in the UK that could result in damages of up to £5 billion ($6.6 billion), alleging it abused its dominant position in the online search market. Filed with the Competition Appeal Tribunal, the case argues that Google's control of the search engine landscape allowed it to inflate advertising prices. The suit claims Google secured exclusive deals with phone manufacturers and Apple to make its search engine the default option, effectively excluding competitors.The claim also alleges Google offered better functionality and features for its own ads, making it harder for rivals to compete. Led by competition law expert Or Brook, the suit represents thousands of businesses who argue they had no real alternative to using Google Ads. Brook emphasized that visibility on Google is critical for businesses, calling its control a form of monopoly power.Google rejected the allegations as speculative and said it would fight the lawsuit, maintaining that users and advertisers choose its services because they are effective, not because they are forced to. Meanwhile, the UK's Competition and Markets Authority launched a separate investigation into Google's practices earlier this year, citing its dominant role in UK search and advertising markets.Google faces 5 billion pound UK lawsuit for abusing dominance in online search | ReutersThe Associated Press (AP) has accused the Trump White House of ignoring a court order that reinstated the news agency's access to press events. The dispute centers around a federal judge's finding that the AP was unlawfully retaliated against for refusing to use the term “Gulf of America” in place of the historically recognized “Gulf of Mexico” in its reporting, as requested by President Trump. U.S. District Judge Trevor McFadden ruled that the White House likely violated the AP's First Amendment rights and ordered that access restrictions be lifted while the case proceeds.Despite this, AP lawyers say the White House continues to exclude its journalists from the press pool, including access to the Oval Office and presidential travel. In response, the White House implemented a new policy removing all wire services, including AP, Reuters, and Bloomberg, from permanent pool status, placing them instead in a rotating system with about 30 other outlets. The AP claims this is a veiled attempt to continue its exclusion.Both Reuters and the AP criticized the policy, noting that many media outlets, especially smaller and international ones, depend on wire service coverage for timely updates on presidential actions. The White House has appealed Judge McFadden's ruling, with arguments scheduled before a federal appellate court.AP accuses Trump White House of defying court order restoring access | ReutersThe California attorney general's office has declined to support Elon Musk's lawsuit against OpenAI, stating in a public letter that the legal action doesn't appear to serve the state's public interest. Musk, who co-founded OpenAI but later left, accuses the company and CEO Sam Altman of abandoning its nonprofit mission in favor of profit. He urged the state to join his lawsuit, arguing the transition to a for-profit model undermines the original intent of the organization.The attorney general's office responded that Musk hadn't demonstrated how the lawsuit would benefit the public and raised concerns that he may be trying to control OpenAI's assets for personal gain. This comes after Musk's consortium offered an unsolicited $97 billion bid for the company earlier this year. Musk's legal team pushed back, claiming the state misunderstood his intentions and noting support from former OpenAI employees and philanthropic leaders who oppose the company's restructuring.OpenAI, which is still legally a nonprofit in California, must get approval from the state for its planned governance changes. The company says the changes are essential to secure $40 billion in investment and that the nonprofit will retain a stake in the for-profit entity, helping it fulfill its mission long-term.Musk filed his lawsuit in 2024, asserting OpenAI had strayed from its founding purpose of developing AI to benefit humanity. A jury trial is scheduled for next year. Meanwhile, Musk has launched a competing AI firm, xAI, and Altman has accused him of trying to sabotage a rival.California attorney general declines to join Musk's lawsuit against OpenAI | Reuters This is a public episode.

Many of Oregon's county health officials are asking for a little extra consideration from lawmakers this year as they decide where to allocate funding. Two counties, Wallowa and Curry, have no public health staff and rely solely on the Oregon Health Authority to meet their needs. With the fifth anniversary of the initial COVID-19 lockdown this week, perhaps nothing is a bigger reminder of the need for a stable funding source for public health infrastructure. Sarah Lochner, the executive director of the Oregon Coalition of Local Health Officials, told OPB that not only is the state not ready for the next pandemic, counties are in dire need of stable funding just to deal with the everyday public health needs of the communities they serve — from vaccinating against whooping cough and measles, to providing needed treatment for alcohol and substance use disorder, to preventing HIV, hepatitis C, syphilis and other communicable diseases. Jackson county public health worker Tanya Phillips said because grants are often available only when the health of a particular population declines, the system sets up a kind of unreliable boom and bust cycle for funding, which does not support healthy communities long term. Phillips and Lochner join us to share the impact that unpredictable and insufficient funding is having in Jackson County and around the state.
Nach dem WM-Sieg im Zweier ist vor dem WM-Sieg mit dem Vierer? So einfach geht das selbst bei Bobdominator Francesco Friedrich nicht, auch wenn es mittlerweile den Anschein macht. In Lake Placid hat der Pirnaer, schon jetzt der beste, weil erfolgreichste Bobpilot aller Zeiten, seinen 15. Titel perfekt gemacht – auf spektakuläre, fast unglaubliche Art und Weise. 0,02 Sekunden lagen er und sein Anschieber Alexander Schüller vier, fünf Kurven vor Schluss zurück, 0,03 Sekunden betrug im Ziel dann ihr Vorsprung. So spannend war Bobsport lange nicht mehr. Ein Herzschlagfinale verbunden mit emotionalen Extremen. Und nicht nur Johannes Lochner, Dauerkonkurrent und nun zum neunten Mal bei Olympia oder WM auf Platz zwei hinter Friedrich, fragt entnervt wie bewundernd: Wie macht der das nur? Die Antworten gibt es im "Dreierbob", dem Wintersportpodcast von Sächsische.de und RedaktionsNetzwerk Deutschland. Diese Folge fasst die Ereignisse des ersten Wochenendes dieser Bob- und Skeleton-Weltmeisterschaft zusammen, ordnet ein und bietet Hintergründe. Dazu die O-Töne der Protagonisten: Was also sagen Friedrich, Lochner sowie deren Anschieber Alexander Schüller und Georg Fleischhauer zur dramatischen Entscheidung im Zweier der Männer? Eine Erklärung liefert zudem Gerd Leopold, der stellvertretende Bundestrainer aus Riesa und zugleich Friedrichs Heimtrainer. Dabei fällt es ihm hörbar schwer, und das ist ein Puzzleteil für den immer wiederkehrenden Erfolg, den Sieg zu genießen. „Es gibt Dinge, die müssen wir nächstes Jahr besser machen. Das wissen wir, und das haben wir uns jetzt schon gesagt“, so Leopold. Denn im nächsten Jahr stehen dann die ganz großen, die allerwichtigsten Rennen an, dann ist Olympia. Den WM-Titel im großen Schlitten am kommenden Wochenende, den hätten sie trotzdem sehr gerne, Friedrich wie auch Lochner. Und vielleicht wiederholt sich ja Geschichte: 2017 wurden beide zeitgleich Viererbob-Weltmeister. Und apropos Olympia: Das haben auch die beiden sächsischen Skeletoni Susanne Kreher und Axel Jungk fest im Blick. Jungk, gerade 34 alt geworden, feiert in Lake Placid überraschend Bronze. Kreher wird nach einem verkorksten ersten Lauf noch starke Sechste. Beide sind im Dreierbob im Interview.

The Cross | The Cross and The Crowds | Ps. Eben Lochner by Sermon of the week
Der Termin ist ganz sicher nicht der beste gewesen, das Wetter erst recht nicht – da sind sich Sportler, Trainer, Organisatoren und eben auch das Publikum einig. An der Lust auf Eiskanal wird es noch am allerwenigsten gelegen haben, schon gar nicht bei den Bobfahrerinnen und Bobfahrern. Lange genug mussten sie auf ihren Saisonstart warten. Und der Mythos Altenberg – der ist Herausforderung und Reiz zugleich. Aber wer hat am zweiten Adventswochenende schon Zeit für den Abstecher ins Mekka des Bobsports, wenn doch gerade überall die Weihnachtsmärkte öffnen und es noch dazu wie die sprichwörtlichen Bindfäden regnet? Klare Antwort: rund 3.600 Zuschauer – die wiederum Weltklasse-Sport geboten bekamen. Es war tatsächlich ein „Wow-Weltcup“, den der Sachsen-Energie-Eiskanal am vergangenen Wochenende erlebte, verbunden mit unerwartet vielen Aha-Effekten – zusammengefasst in dieser Folge „Dreierbob“. Pilotin Laura Nolte beeindruckte mit einem Comeback-Sieg im Monobob und einem Bahnrekord im Zweierbob, unterstützt von Anschieberin Deborah Levi. „Ein super Einstand in die Saison, so kann es weitergehen“, sagt Nolte im Podcast-Interview an der Bahn. Francesco Friedrich, der „Bobdominator“, stellte mit seinem neuen Anschieber Simon Wulff einen Startrekord im Zweierbob auf - und das in Wulffs ersten Weltcup-Rennen überhaupt. Auch im verkürzten Viererbob-Wettbewerb am Sonntag zeigte Team Friedrich Stärke und setzte mit einem Sieg ein großes Ausrufezeichen hinter dieses Wochenende. „Wir sind gut aufgestellt, bauen auf diesen Erfolgen auf und ziehen mit Blick Richtung Olympia mit dieser Mannschaft jetzt durch“, so Friedrich. Es wirkte fast so, als wollte Friedrich den Wirbel um den Wechsel seines Anschiebers Thorsten Margis zu Konkurrent Johannes Lochner einfach abschütteln. Natürlich wird diese Nachricht, die auch an diesem Weltcupwochenende die Runde machte, im Podcast thematisiert. "Dieses Hin und Her mit den Anschieben, nach dieser ganzen Publicity, wollten wir jetzt einfach zeigen, dass wir gut aufgestellt sind", sagte Friedrich. Und was meinte Johannes Lochner dazu? Er betont im Podcast, dass es trotz aller Konkurrenz im deutschen Team ein gemeinsames Ziel gebe: Olympia. Aber was wäre Lochner ohne einen typischen Lochner-Spruch? Den lieferte der Bayer natürlich auch - und zwar auf die Frage, ob er mit Friedrich nach all dem Streit noch auf ein Bier gehen könnte. Diese Antwort gibt's im Podcast, genauso alle Hintergründe dazu, warum das Viererbob-Rennen am Sonntag auf nur einen Lauf verkürzt werden musste. Nur so viel dazu sei verraten: Es hat mit dem Thema Sicherheit und einer steilen Lernkurve zu tun.

Tim Lochner, der seit Angang des Jahres Oberbürgemeister der 40.000- Einwohner-Stadt Pirna südöstlich von Dresden ist, gilt für die AfD als ein prestigeträchtiges Aushängeschild. Zwar ist Lochner kein Parteimitglied, aber er hat für die AfD kandidiert, steht für deren Inhalte und war der erste in Deutschland, der in solch ein Amt kam. In den seit seiner Vereidigung vergangenen Monaten hat er kaum konkrete Politik gemacht, aber doch das Klima in Pirna deutlich verändert. Das spürt die Stadtgesellschaft, das spüren Politiker anderer Parteien und auch der Pfarrer. Alexander Moritz mit einer Langzeitbeobachtung.

There's a new face at the Wisconsin State Cranberry Growers Association headquarters in Wisconsin Rapids as Grant Holley has joined the association staff as the new Executive Director. With a rich background in agriculture, education, and science, Holley brings a unique blend of expertise and enthusiasm to the cranberry industry. Holley, formerly a professor at North Carolina State University, shared his journey to the cranberry realm, stating, “My transition from academia to the cranberry sector was driven by a passion for agriculture and a desire to work with the "absolute best people" in the industry.” Upon assuming his new role, Holley acknowledges the significant legacy left by his predecessor, Tom Lochner, who served the association for 35 years. "Tom was able to put us on the map...he set us up with a number of tools that's going to help us go for the next 5 and even 10 years," Holley noted, emphasizing his intention to build upon Lochner's foundation. “My background comes with strong agricultural roots, and I am proud to be working with such a keystone industry in Wisconsin,” said Holley. “Advocacy, research, and sustainability in a changing world will all be areas for focus. Grower families have been part of this organization for more than 135-years and we will all work very hard to ensure another century, or two, of prosperity and culture to the area.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Todd Lochner, GM at Principle Toyota breaks down why Collierville denied Principle Toyota's rezoning request.
Lochner v New York, a 1905 Supreme Court case about working hours and contracts, is considered anti-canon. Right up there with Dred Scott, Plessy and Korematsu. The question is, how did it get there? Why do people think it's so bad? And what does this decision, and the era that followed, say about politics and the Supreme Court?Our guides to this case and what came after are Rebecca Brown, Rader Family Trustee Chair in Law at USC Gould School of Law and Matthew Lindsay, Associate Professor of Law at University of Baltimore School of Law.

Seit Tim Lochners Wahl suchen Beschäftigte der Stadt Pirna einen neuen Job. Lochner ist der erste AfD-Kandidat, der in Deutschland Oberbürgermeister wird. Doch nicht nur Mitarbeiter der sächsischen Stadt sorgen sich. Moritz, Alexanderwww.deutschlandfunk.de, Deutschland heute
Substantive Due Process. Definition and Development. Substantive Due Process is the doctrine that the Due Process Clauses of the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments do more than ensure fair procedures; they also protect certain fundamental rights from government interference, regardless of the procedural protections in place. This doctrine emerged as a means to safeguard individual liberties against majority rule and government overreach. Early Interpretation. Initially, the Supreme Court used substantive due process to protect economic rights, as in Lochner v New York (1905), where the Court struck down a state labor law on the grounds that it interfered with the freedom of contract, a fundamental right. However, this approach was controversial and led to accusations of judicial overreach. Shift to Personal Liberties. In the mid-20th century, the focus of substantive due process shifted from economic rights to personal liberties. Landmark cases like Griswold v Connecticut (1965) and Roe v Wade (1973) extended its application to privacy rights and reproductive autonomy, establishing that certain personal decisions are beyond the reach of governmental intrusion. Contemporary Issues. Substantive due process remains a dynamic area of constitutional law, dealing with issues ranging from family relations to sexual autonomy and bodily integrity. Its boundaries and applications are regularly tested in courts, reflecting changing societal values and norms. Procedural Due Process. Framework. Procedural Due Process, grounded in the same constitutional provisions as substantive due process, focuses on the process required by the government before depriving a person of life, liberty, or property. It ensures fair procedures and safeguards against arbitrary government action. Life, Liberty, and Property Interests. The Supreme Court has interpreted these interests broadly. Life is the most straightforward, while liberty encompasses a range of personal freedoms, from physical freedom to fundamental rights like parental rights and freedom from unjustified reputational harm. Property interests go beyond physical possessions to include legitimate claims or entitlements, like government benefits. Required Procedures. The procedures required by due process vary depending on the situation but generally include notice, the opportunity to be heard, and a fair and impartial decision-making process. The landmark case Matthews v Eldridge (1976) established a balancing test to determine the specific procedural safeguards required in a given case, weighing the private interest, the risk of erroneous deprivation, and the government's interest. Governmental Obligations. Procedural due process imposes significant obligations on the government, particularly in the criminal justice system. It requires fair and timely trials, impartial judges, and the opportunity for defendants to confront witnesses and present evidence. Economic Rights and Regulation. Historical Context. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the Supreme Court often used substantive due process to protect economic rights, like property rights and the freedom of contract. This era, known as the Lochner era, saw the Court striking down various state and federal regulations that interfered with these rights. Shift in Judicial Perspective. The Great Depression and the New Deal era marked a shift in the Court's approach. Cases like West Coast Hotel Company v Parrish (1937) signaled the end of the Lochner era, as the Court upheld state labor regulations, acknowledging the government's role in addressing economic inequalities and public welfare. Modern View. Today, the Court is generally deferential to government economic regulation, applying rational basis review in most cases. This deferential approach allows for a wide range of government interventions in the economy, from labor standards to environmental regulations, reflecting a recognition of the government's role in managing complex modern --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/law-school/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/law-school/support

Additionally, Lochner goes into very practical information by detailing ways to evaluate EPDs of different breeds of cattle and using the Dollar Value Indexes to encompass end goals.
After clearing the decks of the latest headlines from the week involving Biden trials and Trump tribulations, we get down to business discussing John's new book The Politically-Incorrect Guide to the Supreme Court (co-authored with Robert Delahunty). Naturally Steve and Lucretia have some issues to pick with John.Steve manages to annoy everyone by noting the Statute-That-Cannot-Be-Named-On-This-Podcast (rhymes with Lean Fair Fact) and connecting it to the "L-Word," meaning the Lochner case. You thought it meant something else? How old fashioned and quaint in this Age of Infinite Pronouns. And did Kamala Harris set a new low in hypocrisy and bad faith this week with her attack on Florida's African-American history standards? Let us count the ways. . .
“Example is not the main thing in influencing others. It is the only thing.” -Albert Schweitzer Habitat for Humanity's mission is to help families build and improve places to call home.

Hélène Machelon, dans son roman Flagrant déni, aborde le sujet peu connu et si mystérieux du déni de grossesse, également appelé grossesse invisible. En décrivant l'histoire de Juliette, une adolescente brillante à l'avenir prometteur, elle en profite pour aprofondir, une nouvelle fois, le sujet des relations familiales. La deuxième participation d'Hélène Machelon à Zeteo. Il y a un an et demi, elle avait raconté son expérience de mère : Après avoir vécu le deuil de Jeanne, victime d'une maladie génétique qui l'avait « envolée » quelques mois après sa naissance, elle avait adopté trois enfants. C'est avec la même sensibilité qu'Hélène Machelon évoque ici les difficultés de l'adolescence, des relations familiales, des questions de la sexualité abordées en famille. La profondeur de son regard touchera tous les auditeurs, bien au-delà de ceux qui ont été touché, de près ou de loin, par un cas de grossesse invisible. Dans son exploration des rapports entre époux, parents et enfants, Hélène Machelon éclaire cet univers de relations si fortes et si difficiles souvent : En famille, pourquoi est-il si difficile de s'aimer, et d'exprimer ses sentiments ? Pourquoi s'épuise t-on parfois en cherchant à se rencontrer sans y parvenir vraiment ? La douceur et la grâce qui habitent Hélène Machelon apportent une lumière apaisante à cet éclairage. Un nouveau moment d'émotion qui touchera tous ceux qui sont liés ou noués tour à tour par les relations familiales : nous tous. Pour lire Flagrant déni, le livre de Hélène Machelon, cliquer ici.

It's late in the 4th quarter for this year's Supreme Court season, and the Justices are starting to score with some long bombs. Our 3WHH bartenders celebrated with entire flights of whisky (our kind of diversity!) while pondering Thursday's clean sweep of two 9 - 0 decisions that reinvigorate the "takings clause" of the 5th Amendment, and clip the wings of the EPA without once mentioning either the Chevron doctrine, or a certain other statute that is banned from this podcast.But wait! There's more! We also dispatch with prejudice the crazy idea of President Biden using the 14th Amendment to raise the debt ceiling, preview a couple of brand new cases that may start to undo the DEI regime, and puzzle over a head-scratching case from a few weeks ago involving California's extra-territorial imposition of regulations of pig-farming. As this poses an existential threat both to the availability of bacon supplies and McRibbs in California going forward, this is a matter of deep concern and outrage.Speaking of pigs, John Yoo is about to come out with his own PIG book to go on your bookshelf right next to Steve's PIG book. That is, John and co-author Robert Delahunty are about to come out with The Politically-Incorrect Guide to the Supreme Court, which will make a nice pairing with both a good whisky and Steve's Politically-Incorrect Guide to the Presidents, from Wilson to Obama. We discuss the common points of interest between the two books, though Steve alleges that John and his co-author got the Lochner case wrong, as everyone usually does.There is no truth to the rumor that Lucretia is writing The Politically-Incorrect Guide to Political Incorrectness, though she's the obvious choice for the title.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5816484/advertisement

Audio of West Coast Hotel v. Parrish (1937) Majority Opinion (Minimum Wage for Women, Right to Contract) In the case I'll be reading today, the Court revisited the minimum wage for women issue once again. This time, regarding a Washington state law requiring a minimum wage of $14.50 for women for a 48-hour work week. But an employee of the West Coast Hotel Company, Elsie Parrish, received less than the required wage. So, she sued her employer to recover the difference in wages owed to her under the law. Her employer argued that the minimum wage requirement violated the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment as applied to the states through the Fourteenth Amendment. This time, the Court held that a minimum wage for women did not violate the Fifth Amendment's Due Process clause. Citing Muller v. Oregon, the Court held that states may use their police power to restrict individual freedom to contract - overruling Adkins and marking an end to the Court's broad view of the freedom to contract during the Lochner era.

In this episode originally recorded in July 2021, Vox's Zack Beauchamp talks with Columbia law professor Jamal Greene about his book How Rights Went Wrong: Why Our Obsession With Rights Is Tearing America Apart. They discuss how the US obsession with rights and their protections gives too much power to judges and the courts, makes it difficult for ordinary citizens to find reasonable solutions to legitimate problems, and has made this country's legal system not only nonsensical but dangerous.

Audio of the 1905 opinion of the Court in Lochner v. New York. In 1895, the state of New York enacted the Bakeshop Act, which limited the number of hours that bakers could work to no more than ten hours per day and no more than sixty hours per week. Joseph Lochner owned a bakeshop in New York and was charged with violating the act when one of his employees was discovered to have exceeded his legal workload. Lochner was issued a fine of $25 for his initial violation (the equivalent to about $900 today) but he decided not to challenge the conviction. A few years later, Lochner was busted for violating the Bakeshop Act a second time, convicted a second time issued a fine of $50. This time, Lochner appealed his conviction to the state court, but was denied. When his case eventually made it before the Supreme Court of the United States in 1905, the question was whether New York's Bakeshop Act violated the liberty protected by the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment by interfering with Lochner's right to contract. *The decision in Lochner v. New York was overturned in 1937 in West Coast Hotel Company v. Parrish. Access the full SCOTUS opinion with citations here: https://www.oyez.org/cases/1900-1940/198us45 Music by Epidemic Sound
