Sovereign Ephemera: State Standing Against the Federal Government for Injuries to Quasi-sovereign Interests |
90 Temple Law Review 53 (Fall, 2017) |
The mere retreat to the qualifying quasi is implicit with confession that all recognized classifications have broken down, and quasi is a smooth cover which we draw over our confusion as we might use a counterpane to conceal a disordered bed. Within weeks of the 2016 presidential election, Democratic attorneys general from several states... |

Sovereign Immunity and the Constitutional Text |
103 Virginia Law Review Rev. 1 (March, 2017) |
Despite the opprobrium heaped on the Supreme Court's modern doctrine of state sovereign immunity, there is a theory that makes sense of that doctrine, and also renders it consistent with the constitutional text. The theory is that sovereign immunity is a common law rule--a backdrop--that is not directly incorporated into the Constitution, but is... |

Minnesota is a Dakota place. The Dakota people's place in Minnesota. Is there a difference between those two statements? The first is a simple declarative sentence that identifies Minnesota.
