Prestes APPLICATION OF THE EQUAL CREDIT OPPORTUNITY ACT TO HOUSING LEASES 67 University of Chicago Law Review 865 (Summer, 2000) Landlords often deny a prospective tenant's lease application based on deficiencies in the tenant's credit report.

Geoffrey Graber CHOOSING THE CHOSEN: THE VALIDITY OF RACIAL RESTRICTIONS ON THE ALIENATION OF PROPERTY IN ISRAEL AND THE UNITED STATES 73 Southern California Law Review 437 (January, 2000) Israel is a nation that resists definition. Not by accident, it is both a Jewish state, existing of, by and for the Jewish people, and a liberal-democracy, guaranteeing to all citizens freedom and equality under the law, regardless of race or religion.
