 Foreign Direct Investment
An extensive overhaul of a country’s legislative and institutional framework is generally not a necessary precondition for the postcommunist countries of Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union to attract direct investment from large, multinational investors (although certain changes are generally required to retain such investment) or from smaller, entrepreneurial investors.
Clearly the factor enticing foreign investors could not have been the legal systems in the postcommunist countries: in the early 1990s their laws and legal institutions were generally incapable of addressing the many issues that arise in a market-based economic system.

 Andrea Mckenzie | "This Death Some Strong and Stout Hearted Man Doth Choose": The Practice of Peine Forte et Dure in ...
The effort by early modern courts to grant even avowedly guilty defendants a trial was often invoked as evidence of the particular mercy of the English criminal law.
In the absence of plea bargaining or defense counsel, early modern criminal trials were less about determining the defendant's guilt or innocence of a specific charge than they were a kind of "sentencing hearing" aimed at weighing the character of the prisoner, and his or her likelihood of offending again.
The author is grateful to John Beattie and Simon Devereaux and the members of the History Staff-Student Seminar at the University of Queensland, as well as four anonymous readers and the editor of this journal, for their encouragement and helpful suggestions.

Antitrust laws and competition policy generally consider sweeping restrictions on competition harmful to consumers and justified only by a showing that the restriction is needed to prevent significant consumer injury.
John Kwoka (presented at the FTC’s 25th Anniversary Symposium) focuses on the economics of the professions, concluding that competition yields major benefits to consumers in the form of lower prices, without adverse effects on quality.
In its study of the Law & Economics movement, the liberal MT concludes that the influential movement was funded and led by conservative philanthropies, in order to re-shape law and government by (re)educating judges and other leaders.

 Alva McKenzie & a. v. City of Berlin & a.
The City cross-appealed the court's grant of declaratory judgment and injunctive relief but at oral argument indicated that it had already implemented the court-ordered relief, making this portion of its cross-appeal moot.
Accordingly, we affirm the trial court's interpretation of the 1961, 1963, and 1990 laws and concur with its conclusion that these laws did not authorize the City to enroll the plaintiffs in its own plan.
Accordingly, the trial court could properly determine that the significance of these laws on the City's obligation to enroll its employees in the State retirement plan "was a fair and reasonable ground for litigation." Casico v.

In age after age a confirmation of it will be demanded and granted as a remedy for those oppressions from which the realm is suffering, and this when some of its clauses, at least in their original meaning, have become hopelessly antiquated.
It provided that colonial laws should be void to the extent in which they were repugnant to an Act of the United Kingdom parliament applicable to that colony, ‘but not otherwise’ (section 2) and that they should not be void or inoperative on the ground of repugnancy to the law of England (section 3).
The people may be taxed; they should be housed; laws will criminalise some of the things they do; maybe they will be tried with no juries, and subject to severe, even brutal penalties; the laws made for their marriages, their property, and much besides may be far different from what obtains in England.

 December 1999 / Banks Which Have Financed "Payday Loan" and "Title Loan" Operators

This law provides an incentive of $4,000 per adoption to states that increase their adoption rate and requires state accountability for swift reform of the failing child welfare system.
Within this law, a new, capped entitlement program was created to broaden services to families, such as "family preservation" and "family support services." Moreover, several laws enacted during the past several years increased federal spending for these programs and increased state and federal government oversight.
While the federal government, by law, must dictate to the agencies where the funds must be distributed, the state has no authority over the county-based agencies as to the actual outcomes of their program.
