HELP! Need a Topic

Posted on 09/07/2005 3:37:23 PM PDT by sasherm13

This is a call for help. I am a second year student at Ave Maria School of Law. This year I made law review and need to write a note (paper) on a legal topic. I need something that hasn't been beaten to death, yet is deep enough that I can write 40-60 pages about it. DOes anyone have any ideas? I have a fewof my own, but I feel like they are too limited and I will struggle with them. Thanks for any help.

How about paternity fraud, DNA testing, and the evolution of family law?

Want one that no one has written yet? How about an anlysis of the legal issues involving local, state and federal laws in disaster relief and action, specifically on the Katrina experience?

How about the 4th amendment rights and search and seizure laws?

Jurors rights should be a real crowd pleaser and an eye opener as well.

How about this this which is related to this?

(Legal rights of local congregations vs. denominations in property disputes)

Well, just off the top of my head, have you considered exploring the empirical relationship and programmatic complexities of class bias with respect to dissemination of tax credits for large-scale businesses that neglect native domain company registration?

Is filling out a W-4 form an illegal form of self-incrimination?

Are plea bargains inherently made under duress (threat of a heavier penalty if the suspect goes to trial)?.

Is employer collection of income, social security, and medicaare taxes a violation of their property (time) rights?

Is the invocation of the 'Interstate Commerce' clause in the US Constitution to justify all kinds of Federal meddling legal, moral, or ethical?

Should their be a Federal statute specifically exempting monies made from garage sales and other personal sales from income tax? Since 'everyone' does it and noone pays tax on this 'income'.

I took a course called Moral Foundations of Law which Bork taught. But it only lasted 2 weeks each semester. He was an awesome teacher with a pretty sarcastic sense of humour, I loved it.

How about the limits of federal power in the face of natural disaster, as in the case of Katrina and the blaming of the feds for not doing more when the authority lies with the state and local governments?

Thanks. I am using the new paternity fraud case that you recommended. You were a huge help.

Glad to hear it. Good luck on your paper. Once you have it finished would love to see it posted, and if you remember, give me a ping.
