Dispute Resolution Journal - Vol. 63 Nbr. 1, February 2008
This article discusses economic decision analysis as a tool to assist practitioners and their clients in preparing to negotiate or mediate. Of course, an economic analysis is only as good as the legal and factual analysis upon which it is built. It should show the legal remedies allowed by law and the facts supporting them. A sound economic analysis will get a party beyond the simple conclusion that it has a "good case" because there is some chance of a high or low award. Decision makers are ...

Vanderbilt Law Review - Vol. 58 Nbr. 4, May 2005
This article develops normative and doctrinal innovations to cope with a pivotal yet undertheorized question in most proposed class actions: assuming that a class has adequate representatives, how much variance among class members' circumstances should courts tolerate? Class actions seeking monetary damages would be much less controversial if the factual circumstances of every class member were exactly alike. The article defines and explores three phenomena that create such distortions: cherr...

Journal of Real Estate Portfolio Management - Vol. 14 Nbr. 1, January 2008
Business students majoring in real estate encounter seemingly contradictory treatment of financing costs in net present value (NPV) analysis between the finance and real estate disciplines. This study examines the difference in the treatment of financing costs between finance and real estate textbooks, reconciles the difference, and recommends that real estate textbooks explicitly address this issue to minimize students' confusion and to give them a better understanding of NPV analysis.

Policy Studies Journal - Vol. 33 Nbr. 2, May 2005
Creating institutions that foster the production of objective and balanced policy analysis is a challenging task for all types of regimes. The value of neutral competence often suffers in tradeoffs with the value of responsiveness, especially in the exercise of executive authority. Institutional designers, however, are not without resources for structuring arrangements to promote the production of objective and balanced policy analysis: organizations can be created with an incentive to achiev...

Texas Law Review - Vol. 85 Nbr. 1, November 2006
Although the Ninth Amendment appears on its face to protect unenumerated individual rights of the same sort as those that were enumerated in the Bill of Rights, courts and scholars have long deprived it of any relevance to constitutional adjudication. With the growing interest in originalist methods of interpretation since the 1980s, however, this situation has changed. In the past twenty years, five originalist models of the Ninth Amendment have been propounded by scholars: the state law rig...
