Research and Scholarship
Pace | Haub Environmental Law Professor Jason Czarnezki's article "A Brief Legal History of Wisconsin Conservation,” co-authored with 3L Carolyn Drell, was published in the Marquette Law Review. The article examines the legal history of Wisconsin conservation — how the state’s conservation values were expressed in law, how its natural resources law has evolved and what that has (and has not) embodied, and how Wisconsin helps us define modern concepts of “conservation.”

“Ordering the dissolution of a business for financial fraud is an extraordinary remedy, some people even claiming it to be akin to the death penalty,” Bennett Gershman, a former New York prosecutor and law professor at Pace University, told Salon. “Dissolution, or liquidation, hardly ever happens, especially when there is no proof that victims were harmed or financial institutions lost money.”

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Professor Bennett Gershman speaks to Newsweek about conservative activist Charlie Kirk being at risk of sued for defamation over comments he made about New York City Council member Yusef Salaam.
"Since Salaam is a public official and a public figure, Salaam would have to prove that Kirk acted with malice, which means showing that Kirk knew his statement was false or recklessly disregarded the truth. Salaam was exonerated of the crime. It was a huge public fact. If Kirk didn't know that, he must be living on another planet. A lawsuit by Salaam would be appropriate and winnable."

The “rants” by the former president in the trial are “perfectly consistent” with the kind of “reckless and toxic” rhetoric he always spews out,” Bennett Gershman, a former New York prosecutor and law professor at Pace University, told Salon. “It’s not clear who his audience is,” Gershman said. “If it’s the jury, he’s making a mistake. His reckless and unhinged remarks will only persuade the jury to award a higher punitive damage award to punish him and silence him.”
