The three sections -- Constitutional Law, Family Law, and Federal Courts -- are holding a joint session, TRANSCENDING BOUNDARIES, on Thursday, the 4th of January, from 8:30 am to 12:30 in San Francisco at the San Francisco Hilton and Towers, Continental Ballroom 5, 333 O'Farrell Street.
Below is more by way of description of our focus, and the plans for the group wide and then the subgroup discussions. Also below is a bibliography compiled by members of the panel. Please feel free to circulate this description as well as to use the materials in other ways.
Joint Program of Sections on Constitutional Law,
Family and Juvenile Law and Federal Courts
Transcending Boundaries: The Constitution,
Families, Federalization, and Federalism
The developments, both statutory and constitutional, of the last half dozen years make appropriate the coming together of professors from these three sections to discuss issues of shared intellectual and doctrinal concern. Several legislative initiatives and judicial rulings have raised questions about the boundaries of state and federal authority to deal with a range of problems, including violence against women, criminal law, and the definitions of and import of family membership. The constitutional provisions implicated range from the Commerce and Full Faith and Credit Clauses to treaty powers, spending powers, preemption and supremacy, and the Tenth, Eleventh and Fourteenth Amendments. National legislative initiatives to be discussed include the Violence Against Women Act, the Defense of Marriage Act, provisions aimed at increasing child support and at welfare, and the application of anti-arson statutes to the burning of religious buildings. Because of increased transnational activity and ease of travel across state lines, the relevance of international conventions to the United States and the effects of state and federal legislation outside United States boundaries will also be considered.
The first half of the program will be devoted to discussion from a range of panelists, including law professors and judges, exchanging views. Thereafter, participants will join group discussions (comprised of professors from each of the three sections) and will continue the exchange. Such groups may center their discussion on particular issues (such as federal tort law, ERISA, DOMA, child support legislation) or on particular provisions of the Constitution (Commerce, Spending, etc.) or on specific cases (Troxel, Morrison, Lopez, Prinz, Alden, etc.) as the group determines. We look forward to a lively and focused discussion.
The panel includes Hon. Christine Durham, Associate Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Utah, Professor Ann Estin (Iowa), Hon. Thelton E. Henderson of the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, Professor Vicki Jackson (Georgetown), Professor Larry Kramer (NYU), Professor Judith Resnik (Yale), Dean Daniel Rodriguez (San Diego), and Professor Reva Siegel (Yale). Discussants include Professor June Carbone (Santa Clara), Professor David Cruz (USC), Professor Andy Koppelman (Northwestern), Professor Sylvia Law (NYU), Professor Robert Pushaw (Missouri-Columbia), Professor Jana Singer (Maryland), and Professor Mark Strasser (Capital). Professor Douglas Laycock of Texas will serve as moderator.
Our tentative plans are that panelists will address the following topics:
Larry Kramer: The Politics of Federalism
Dan Rodriguez: The New Doctrine of Federalism and Intra-State Activities
Christine Durham: State Courts and the New Federalism
Reva Siegel: Federalism, Family Law, and the Nineteenth Amendment
Judith Resnik: Categorical Federalism: Violence and Families
Ann Estin: Family Law: State and National Governance
Thelton Henderson: Prison Law: State and National Governance
Vicki Jackson: Comparative Federalism
Our tentative plans for discussion groups include:
June Carbone: The Constitution and Intrafamilial Relationships
David Cruz: Constitutional law/Intersexual and transsexual marriages
Andrew Koppelman: Full Faith and Credit/Same-sex marriages
Sylvia Law: Spending Clause/Family Support/Adoption/Welfare
Robert Pushaw: Commerce Clause/Child Support/Violence Against Women
Jana Singer: Federalism and Family Law: Allocating Authority and Responsibility
Mark Strasser: DOMA: Status of Children, Parents and Spouses
