The criminal intent required for inchoate crimes cannot be the same as that required for completed offenses, for the defendant committing an inchoate offense believes there is still time to stop, and this belief is at least one qualitative difference between the two offenses.

In addition to requiring subjective culpability, criminal offenses typically involve two objective features: action and harm. In the paradigmatic case, both features are present, but criminal law also allows for liability where either of them is absent. Rules governing omission liability enable punishment where the offender performs no act, while rules defining inchoate crimes (such as attempt) impose liability where the offender causes no harm. In different ways, these two sets of rules establish the minimum threshold of objective conduct-to use the classic term, the minimum actus reus-required for criminal liability. The absolute floor for a criminal actus reus, then, would be defined by the intersection of these two sets of rules. The prospect of liability for "inchoate omissions"-i...

This Article contributes to the literature on shareholder litigation by examining some important effects of the indictment. Part II describes, in brief, the events leading to the indictment of Milberg Weiss.

Part IV assesses the central premise of -- that investors acting as named plaintiffs owe fiduciary duties to putative class members and, thus, can be held criminally liable, along with their attorneys, for breach of those duties. After examining the inchoate relationship between representative plaintif...

The progeny of major literary figures have long played an active role in determining the stature and reputation of these writers' works among future generations of readers. Recently, however, the heirs of several important 20th century writers have exercised their rights of literary executorship in ways that have raised questions about their role in advancing that legacy. Two years ago in this space we& wrote of Dmitri Nabokov's reported intention to ;carry out his father Vladimir's wishes that the "manuscript" (actually about 125 index cards of handwritten text) of his unfinished final novel The Original of Laura be destroyed. Fortunately for biographers and scholars, the younger Nabokov - thinking perhaps of Franz Kafka's instructions to his literary executor Max Brod or the nearly t...
