Book excerpt: Excerpt from Equal Access to Courts Under Esa and Citizen's Fair Hearing Act: Hearing Before the Committee on Resources, House of Representatives, One Hundred Fourth Congress, Second Session on Equal Access to Courts Under the Endangered Species Act and H. R. 3862 Thank you, Madam Chairman. I am pleased to be here today. Let me begin with a little bit of caution, concerning the fact that there are some pending court cases, particularly the Bennett case in the Supreme Court, involved here. The Solicitor General of the United States, as you probably know, sets the litigating position of the us. Government. And the Solicitor General has a wise and long standing policy about not commenting on the details Of pend ing cases. That's why he doesn't give press conferences and the like. He doesn't want to be accused of trying our cases in the Con gress or in the newspapers. So I'll have to be very cautious about commenting on details of pending litigation. I'm certainly happy to be here to share our views on this legislation and our views on the general approach about how the esa ought to be applied in litiga tion under the government, but I do want to put that caution in the record. The basic position Of the United States is simple: that litigants who meet the Constitutional standards for going to court ought to be able to take us to court, to challenge our decisions implementing the esa or any other statute. And the playing field should be as level as possible, so that no matter where you come from, or what property interest you have or don't have, whether you're environ mentalist, regulated industry or whatever, you ought to be able to and, generally speaking, are able to take us to court to challenge our actions. In fact, we're involved at any one time in about different lawsuits challenging our decisions under various laws, and the vast majority Of those are brought by people with economic interests. In the Endangered Species Act in particular, there have been any number of important recent cases that have been brought by regulated industry. Mr. Macleod referred specifically to the Sweet Home case. That's probably the most important case ever litigated on the Endangered Species Act, and was brought by local governments and timber industry associations, and litigated on the merits to conclusion in the us.

Download or read book Inside the Equal Access to Justice Act written by Lowell E. Baier and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-12-17 with total page 679 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Next Generation INDIE Book Awards Grand Prize Winner, Best Non-Fiction Book in 2017; and Winner in the Science/Nature/Environment category Finalist for Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Awards in Ecology and Environment In this book, Lowell E. Baier, one of America’s preeminent experts on environmental litigation, chronicles the century-long story of Americas’ resources management, focusing on litigations, citizen suit provisions, and attorneys’ fees. He provides the first book-length comprehensive examination of the little-known Equal Access to Justice Act (EAJA) and its role in environmental litigation. Originally intended to support veterans, the disabled and small business, EAJA, Baier argues, now paralyzes America’s public land management agencies. Baier introduces readers to the history of EAJA, examines the many beneficiaries of the law, describes in depth 20 of the most prominent litigious environmental groups in America, and recommends carefully tailored amendments to the EAJA to correct environmental abuses of the law while protecting legitimate interests. Inside the Equal Access to Justice Act will be a valuable resource for the environmental legal community, environmentalists, practitioners at all levels of government, and all readers interested in environmental policy and the rise of the administrative state.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 603 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a truly international effort, and one with a strong commitment to human rights by the highly reputable authors coming from different jurisdictions! The many facets of today s consumer law are presented to the reader, including developing countries a fascinating effort in a dynamically emerging field of law! We are comprehensively informed about such bread and butter areas as advertising, unfair terms, consumer guarantees, product safety and liability, consumer credit, and redress. But traditional consumer law concepts and remedies are facing challenges in more complex areas, like services of general internet where consumers and private users should enjoy equal access to universal services , with the internet where speed must not be a pretext to eliminate standards of fair dealing, with risky investment services under the problematic paradigm shift from investor protection to investor confidence . A book to read, to think about, to work with for everybody interested in the future of consumer markets and law in a time of economic crisis! Norbert Reich, University of Bremen, Germany This is a richly interesting collection of essays, written by leading names in the field. It offers a thoroughly reliable survey of key tensions and challenges in modern consumer law and brilliantly combines thematic overview with detailed analysis. It will stimulate comparative thinking, it will provide a source of information and it will be welcomed by consumer law scholars all over the world. Stephen Weatherill, University of Oxford, UK Consumer law and policy has emerged in the last half-century as a major policy concern for all nations. This Handbook of original contributions provides an international and comparative analysis of central issues in consumer law and policy in developed and developing economies. The Handbook encompasses questions of both social policy and effective business regulation. Many of the issues are common to all countries and are becoming increasingly globalised due to the growth in international trade and technological developments such as the Internet. The authors provide a broad coverage of both substantive topics and institutional questions concerning optimal approaches to enforcement and the role of class actions in consumer policy. It also includes comparative insights into the influential EU and US models of consumer law and relates consumer law to contemporary trends in human rights law. Written by a carefully selected group of international experts, this text represents an authoritative resource for understanding contemporary and future developments in consumer law. This Handbook will provide students, researchers and policymakers with an insight to the main policy debates in each context and provide models of legal regulation to assist in the evaluation of laws and the development of consumer law and policy.

Download or read book Immunity of International Organizations written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-08-31 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Immunity rules are part and parcel of the law of international organizations. It has long been accepted that international organizations and their staff need to enjoy immunity from the jurisdiction of national courts. However, it is the application of these rules in practice that increasingly causes controversy. Claims against international organizations are brought before national courts by those who allegedly suffer from their activities. These can be both natural and legal persons such as companies. National courts, in particular lower courts, have often been less willing to recognize the immunity of the organization concerned than the organization’s founding fathers. Likewise, public opinion and legal writings frequently criticize international organizations for invoking their immunity and for the lack of adequate means of redress for claimants. It is against this background that an international conference was organized at Leiden University in June 2013. A number of highly qualified academics and practitioners gave presentations and prepared written contributions that are collected in this book. This book is published to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the International Organizations Law Review, in which these contributions have also been published (Vol. 10, issue 2, 2014).
