OA234: Civil Forfeiture, Berkeley & More! (Patreon)
Downloads
Content
We begin with the Berkeley settlement, and break down exactly what the University did (and didn't) promise to do going forward. Is this a "big win" for the right wing? (Hint: no.)
Then, it's time to delve deeply into Timbs v. Indiana and discuss the law of civil asset forfeiture, the doctrine of proportionality, and even the concept of incorporation. Yes, it's a crazy Civ Pro kinda day.. you won't want to miss it!
Then, it's time for a BRAND NEW SEGMENT -- "Yodel Mountain Remembers!" We think you're gonna love it!
Oh, and we also tackle a terrific listener question about the "apology doctrine" and the nation that made apologies famous -- Canada (of course).
After all that, it's time for the answer to Thomas Takes The Bar Exam #104 regarding government action and the warrant requirement of the Fifth Amendment. As always, remember to follow our Twitter feed (@Openargs) and like our Facebook Page so that you too can play along with #TTTBE!
