The Yale Journal on Regulation started this blog back in September. With the launch of the blog, I started the Administrative Law Bridge Series. Each week I’ve highlighted terrific scholarship in administrative law and regulation to help bridge the gap between theory and practice in the regulatory state. The introduction to the AdLaw Bridge Series […]
The Administrative Law Review and Yale Journal on Regulation publish terrific administrative law scholarship throughout the year. But I look forward to two special annual administrative law symposia: the George Washington Law Review‘s Annual Review of Administrative Law and the Duke Law Journal’s Annual Administrative Law Symposium. I blogged about DLJ’s symposium, entitled “Taking Administrative […]
Later this week the American Association of Law Schools (AALS) holds its annual meeting in Washington, DC (more details here). There are some terrific regulation-related panels at AALS this year, but preregistration is required and the attendance cost is pretty significant. This weekend the Federalist Society will be hosting its annual faculty conference right across the street […]
Over at Jotwell — the Journal of Things We Like (Lots) — Betrall Ross has a terrific review of Jennifer Nou’s latest article “Sub-Regulating Elections.” This article was just published in the Supreme Court Review, and is available behind a paywall on JSTOR here. An earlier draft is also available (for free) on SSRN here. Here’s a summary […]
As I mentioned last week, the Green Bag just published a micro-symposium on Justice Antonin Scalia and Professor Bryan Garner‘s treatise Reading Law: The Interpretation of Legal Texts. I blogged about the first half of the symposium last week here. And I blogged about Reading Law‘s usefulness in the classroom and in administrative law practice here — […]
Yesterday I blogged about the first half of the Green Bag‘s micro-symposium on Scalia and Garner’s treatise Reading Law: The Interpretation of Legal Texts. That post is here, and the micro-symposium can be downloaded here. My terrific research assistant Andrew Mikac and I contributed a 1,000-word essay to the symposium, focusing on the usefulness of […]
Earlier this year the Green Bag — one of my favorite law journals — did a call for papers on Justice Antonin Scalia and Professor Bryan Garner’s treatise Reading Law: The Interpretation of Legal Texts. Scalia and Garner’s Reading Law has been the subject of much praise and criticism since it was published in 2012, with the headline […]
Last week the Administrative Conference of the United States (ACUS) held its 61st Plenary Session. I’ve previously blogged about the important work ACUS does for the federal regulatory state. I hope to find more time to blog about the three recommendations ACUS approved — especially the one on retrospective review of agency rules. But for now I’ll just provide […]
The Penn Program on Regulation, which is perhaps best known for its terrific RegBlog, just posted its call for applications for its fellowship program. This program is for aspiring academics who have not yet held a tenure-track position. It seems like a terrific opportunity for anyone aspiring to be an adlaw or regulation law prof […]
Over at the Journal of Things We Like (Lots) — aka Jotwell, the value of which I explain further here — Jack Beermann has a great review of one of my favorite articles on cost-benefit analysis in financial regulation: Robert Ahdieh‘s Reanalyzing Cost-Benefit Analysis: Toward a Framework of Functions(s) and Form(s), which was published in the NYU Law Review. […]
Yesterday the Supreme Court heard argument in Perez v. Mortgage Bankers Association, which presents an important administrative law question of whether notice-and-comment rulemaking is required when an agency significantly alters an interpretive rule that sets forth the agency’s interpretation of its own regulation. Jeff has done two very thoughtful posts about the case here and here, and […]
Here is the November 2014 Edition of the most-downloaded recent papers (those announced in the last 60 days) from SSRN‘s U.S. Administrative Law eJournal, which is edited by William Funk. For more on why SSRN and this eJournal are such terrific resources for administrative law scholars and practitioners, check out my first post on the subject […]
Last month 28 Harvard law professors published an op-ed calling on Harvard University to rethink its university-wide sexual harassment policy. As the law professors explained, Harvard’s new sexual harassment policies and procedures “lack the most basic elements of fairness and due process, are overwhelmingly stacked against the accused, and are in no way required by Title […]
This is the second time in the AdLaw Bridge Series where I’m highlighting excellent scholarship inspired by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (Dodd-Frank). As I mentioned in my prior post and as Paul Rose and I have explored elsewhere ( here and here), Dodd-Frank has raised the stakes for financial regulation […]
Now that both chambers of Congress are controlled by one party and the presidency by the other, it seems fitting to highlight in the AdLaw Bridge Series this week a terrific paper by Michael Greve and Ashley Parrish entitled “Administrative Law Without Congress: Of Rewrites, Shell Games, and Big Waivers .” The article will be published in the George […]
