Broken ladders and shattered windows: Addressing the representation gap of women of color in corporate leadership positions
(?)
Dr. Artika R. Tyner & Olivia Liz-Fonts
(?)
Mar 02, 2023

Felons Can't Vote: Civil Death in the US
(?)
Ellen J. Kennedy and Judge Tara Kalar
(?)
Feb 27, 2023
The United States is the only democracy in the world in which most convicted offenders who have served their prison sentences are denied the right to vote for many years, and in some cases for the rest of their lives. We examine this phenomenon globally, in the US, and in Minnesota, where the 2023 Legislature was poised to act as this issue went to press.

Judah A. Druck
(?)
Jan 30, 2023
What is this odd tradition? How does it work? And given that the wire often encroaches upon public land and requires government approval, how can the eruv function without violating the First Amendment? This article explores and answers these questions, including the ways in which the eruv has been litigated and how it might impact Minnesota’s own eruvim.

This article, the first of two, will provide an overview of the new rules and a general discussion of key aspects of those rules. It is not an exhaustive treatment of the changes, however, and it is not a substitute for reading the new Rule 114 in its entirety. Part two will focus on what practitioners need to know about the Code of Ethics and the ADR Ethics Board.

Lawyers, whether or not by their own admission, aren’t the best punctuators. True, this lawyerly difficulty extends to other professionals. But because drafting and editing sit at the core of a lawyer’s work, proper punctuation skills are a must.

Laura Hermer

Nov 01, 2022
Now that Roe and Casey have been overturned, our state constitution unquestionably offers more expansive protection for Minnesotans’ right to an abortion under the right of privacy. Yet Minnesotans who care about retaining robust privacy rights may reasonably be concerned about ensuring the protection of their right to an abortion and other privacy rights over time.
