• Comed Announces Delays to Grid Modernization Program Following Icc Rehearing Decision ; Ruling Defers Smart Meter Installations to 2015, Postpones Creation of 2,000 Jobs and $2.3 Billion in Customer Savings

CHICAGO, Oct. 3, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- ComEd today announced delays to key elements of its grid modernization program under the Energy Infrastructure Modernization Act (EIMA), following the Illinois Commerce Commission decision that granted ComEd recovery of the cost of funding its pension, but denied cost recovery on two other key issues, which ComEd will appeal in court. With this ruling, we have no choice but to delay some elements of the grid modernization rollout, at least until we have an outcome in the courts," said Anne Pramaggiore, ComEd president and CEO. "The adverse rulings on the interest rate and rate base issues significantly impair ComEd's ability to finance long-term investment programs.

• Georgia V. Randolph, the Red-Headed Stepchild of an Ugly Family: Why Third-Party Consent Search Doctrine Is an Unfortunate Fourth Amendment Development That Should Be Restrained

[...] scholars argue that consent searches are not supported by the Constitution on their face because "reasonable" searches are founded on probable cause, and consent does not,per se, provide law enforcement officers with the requisite probable cause to validate a search.17 Second, condemning the weak standard of "voluntariness" by which courts determine the validity of a person's consent,18 scholars question whether an individual's consent can ever be genuinely voluntary in the face of government authority.19 If consent cannot possibly be given voluntarily in the face of government authority, then all consents are coerced, which renders all consents constitutionally invalid.20 The doctrinal justifications for targeted-party consent searches have been roundly criticized.

• Enhancing Airline Passenger Protections: Limited Extension of Effect Date for Full Fare Price Advertising

This direct final rule delays the effective date regarding the time period for compliance with a portion of the full fare and other advertising requirements from January 24, 2012, to January 26, 2012. The intended effect of this delay is to provide regulatory relief to petitioner American Airlines by allowing the carrier and any other similarly situated carriers or ticket agents to avoid having to update full fare information in on-line reservations systems on a day of the week that is the petitioner's, and may be other carriers' and ticket agents', heaviest on-line traffic and revenue day. This action is necessary to minimize the detrimental effects of any difficulties that may arise in the immediate aftermath of on-line implementation of programming necessary to comply with the new re...
