Implicit Divestiture and the Supreme Court's (Re)construction of the Indian Canons |
35 Vermont Law Review 623 (Spring, 2011) |
Taken together, the Indian canons of construction and the doctrine of implicit divestiture seem paradoxical. On the one hand, the Indian canons, rules of statutory construction originally developed to protect Indian tribes from unscrupulously drafted statutes and treaties, protect tribal sovereignty against non-Indian encroachment. On the other,... |

Indian Arbitration and "Public Policy" |
89 Texas Law Review 699 (February, 2011) |
Parties choose arbitration for its finality, efficiency, and relative economy. The significance of these considerations is amplified where, as in India, the judiciary is notoriously backlogged and dispute resolution through traditional forums is infamously slow. The state's vital interest in equitable dispute resolution often comes into conflict... |
