The Forum’s Janell Cole reports on a controversy over the current issue of the North Dakota Law Review:
Some North Dakota attorneys are outraged over the latest North Dakota Law Review, saying the scholarly publication was hijacked by national religious rights activists bent on stopping gay marriage.
By Wednesday, lawyers’ protests had become so passionate and widespread that University of North Dakota Law School Dean Paul LeBel posted a disclaimer on the school’s Web site assuring the legal community that “the university and the School of Law are welcoming and inclusive educational communities.”
The titles include:
Griswold and the Defense of Traditional Marriage
Bradley P. Jacob
Custody and Parenting by Persons Other Than Biological Parents: When Non-Traditional Family Law Collides with the Constitution
Gary A. Debele
Does the Family Have a Future?
William C. Duncan
