St. John's Law Review - Vol. 82 Nbr. 3, July 2008
The right to speak one's mind and express one's ideas is an essential component of American society. This right is secured and protected by the First Amendment of the US Constitution. Each year a high number of alleged First Amendment violations come before the courts. This concern presents even more difficulty for courts, and similarly, school administrators, where the speech occurs off-campus and is subsequently brought on-campus by a student other than the original speaker. This note will ...

An affirmative consent standard is the best way to recognize legally that ...

The standard for patentability, codified as the "obviousness" standard, holds that an invention is not patentable if it would have been obvious at the time the invention was made to a person having ordinary skill in the art. People, however, have different opinions on what is "obvious," on what is "innovative," and subjectivity has proven impossible to remove from the process. This article redefines the patentability standard, offering determinable criteria for courts to determine whether the...
