In this episode, Joan Howarth, Distinguished Visiting Professor at University of Las Vegas William S. Boyd School of Law and Dean Emerita of Michigan State University College of Law, discusses her article "First and Last Chance: Looking for Lesbians in Fifties Bar Cases," which is published in the Souther California Review of Law and Women's Studies. Howarth begins by discussing the cases and archival records she used to tell the stories of lesbians living in the San Francisco Bay Area in the 1950s. She reflects on the dehumanizing language police, prosecutors, and judges used to describe gay people at the time, and how the cases still preserve a valuable record of the lives and experiences of gay people. She also discusses the process of archival research and how it can helpfully inform legal scholarship. Howarth is on Twitter at @JoanHowarth1.This episode was hosted by Brian L.

Boyd School of Law, discusses his article "Adversarial Failure," which will be published in the Washington & Lee Law Review.

Aaron Freiwald, Managing Partner of Freiwald Law and host of the weekly podcast, Good Law | Bad Law, is joined by Peter Bayer, a Professor at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas William S. Boyd School of Law, to discuss morality, the Impeachment, and the Constitution.   In today’s episode, Aaron and Peter delve deep into an important and interesting conversation about liberty, fundamental fairness, Due Process and more; throughout, they specifically apply these ideas and their principles to President Trump, and his recent impeachment.  Peter and Aaron have a philosophical discussion on Kant and his categorical imperatives, Deontology, Originalism, and natural rights. The two debate what the Framers of the Constitution intended, they discuss the Magna Carta, natural law, the Supreme Court decision in Obergefell, legal and political theorists such as Blackstone and Locke, and examine Peter’s extensive article on these issues, “Deontological Originalism: Moral Truth, Liberty, and Constitutional ‘Due Process.’”   What is the role of the Constitution? What are its meanings? What is and is not considered moral? And how do we/should we think of ‘the greater good?”   An expert in jurisprudence, Peter earned both his J.D. and his M.A. in Sociology from NYU. His article on today’s subject matter is a legal commentary on the principles of Originalism and Deontology, arguing that given the principles of Originalism, the Constitution mandates that any governmental act is unconstitutional if it is immoral.  Peter refers to these ideas as “Deontological Originalism,” asserting that both the Founders of this Nation and the Reconstruction Congress believed in natural rights that derived from principles of natural law. Aaron and Peter contemplate this through the lens of 2019 and the Impeachment, considering Trump’s definitions of “fair” and drawing comparisons to Fraud’s theory of the ID.   After studying at NYU, Professor Bayer earned his LL.M. from Harvard Law. Before his time at Boyd, Peter served as Assistant Professor and Director of the Legal Research, Analysis, and Writing Program at St. Tomas University School of Law in Miami. In addition to teaching stints at Boston College Law School, the University of Baltimore Law School, and the University of Miami School of Law, Peter worked as Senior Patient Advocate for Quantum Health Resources, Trial Attorney for the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and Staff Attorney for the Center for Advocacy, Research, and Planning. He also clerked for the Honorable Clifford Scott Green, United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. Professor Bayer teaches Lawyering Process, Jurisprudence, Administrative Law, Employment Discrimination, and Judicial Writing.     To check out Professor Bayer’s article on Deontological Originalism, please click here.

Steeped in books and theory, the traditional curriculum at most law schools hasn’t changed in decades. But the tighter job market is bringing changes – albeit a bit slowly.

What does this mean if you are a prospective law student? What should you be looking for to get the most innovative, practical and relevant law school experience?

In this episode, Benjamin Edwards, Associate Professor of Law at the University of Nevada Las Vegas William S. Boyd School of Law, discusses his article "The Professional Prospectus: A Call for Effective Professional Disclosure," which was published in the Washington & Lee Law Review. Edwards explains how information asymmetry makes it hard for consumers to evaluate the quality of professional services, and often causes them to receive substandard service. While professional regulation can help weed out the very lowest quality providers, its effectiveness is limited and often compromised by self-interest. Edwards argues that professions should require affirmative disclosure of relevant information to consumers in advance in the form of a "professional prospectus," in order to improve the market for professional services.
