Injunction Junction
The author examines how it is possible for a court to craft an injunction that protects listeners, protesters, and the Constitution itself. Part I assesses the pre-Madsen state of injunctive relief in cases involving free speech. Part II traces the rise through the lower courts of the two most important Supreme Court decisions on this point: Madsen v. Women’s Health Center, Inc. and Schenck v. Pro-Choice Network of Western New York. Part III addresses the questions: are speech-restrictive injunctions necessarily content-based? Who can be enjoined? Are injunctions really deserving of higher scrutiny than statutes? Can the reviewing court raise government interests that the government has not pled, and what function can those state interests play in the analysis? What factual findings are necessary to support a speech-restrictive injunction? as analyzed in Madsen, Schenck, and a more recent case involving statutory restrictions on speech, Hill v. Colorado.- Creator

No new babies?'
This article examines conflicts over the rights of prisoners and probationers to have sex or to procreate. While most of the literature focuses on judicial interference with women’s rights to have children, two recent cases have put men’s rights in the spotlight: Gerber v. Hickman, which addresses whether men in prison retain the right to procreate, and Oakley v. Wisconsin, which addresses whether men convicted of failing to pay child support lose their right to procreate. Both argues that regardless of whether courts uphold or restrict men’s rights in these cases, the way courts frame their decisions has negative implications for women. By addressing cases concerning both men and women from 1967-2002, this article will contribute to a more thorough understanding of reproductive control in the criminal justice system, its significance for gender equality, and the right of all people, regardless of wealth, to have families.- Creator

Revisiting Title IX's feminist legacy
Focus on three respects in which the law's existing conception of discrimination fails to reach far enough to ensure girls and women equality in sports. Brake examines the continuing decline of women in coaching jobs and its impact on female athleticism: the too-ready acceptance of cuts in men's opportunities as a remedy to discrimination against women: the role of cost-based justifications in preserving the status quo sports establishment and its resistance to the kinds of restructuring that would enable further expansion of women's sports to coexist with the retention of men's sports.- Creator
