The John Marshall Law Review Editorial Board announces the publication of its latest issue, featuring pieces focusing on a variety of emerging legal issues. Topics focus on immigration impacts on children; granting state officials qualified immunity; issues that surround disappeared and missing persons; and the unconstitutionality of the federal government’s ordered assassinations of American citizens.
“‘Mommy, Where Is Home?’: Imputing Parental Immigration Status and Residency for Undocumented Immigrant Children” by Johanna K.P. Dennis, associate professor at Southern University Law Center in Baton Rouge, discusses whether the time immigrant parents spend residing in this country, as well as their immigration status, should be imputed to their children.
“Qualified Immunity: Protecting ‘All but the Plainly Incompetent’ (and Maybe Some of Them, Too)” by Susan Bendlin, assistant professor at Barry University School of Law, focuses on the Supreme Court’s most recent qualified immunity decisions, in which state officials are shielded from suit without determination as to whether their actions violated citizens’ constitutional rights.
“On Locating the Rights of Lost” by Ricardo A. Sunga III, professorial lecturer of the University of the Philippines College of Law, describes and analyzes the nature of the violation that the denial of the truth about disappeared and missing persons constitutes, and its psychological and sociological aspects.
“Guy Fawkes’s Dangerous Remedy: The Unconstitutionality of Government-Ordered Assassination Against U.S. Citizens and Its Implications” by Emily C. Kendall, a graduate of the George Mason University School of Law who is working in private practice in Virginia, addresses the implications and dangers inherent in the Obama administration’s policy of targeting Americans who pose a terroristic threat to the United States and its citizens.
