12 PROPERTY D (2/3) Right to Exclude cont’d 1.Brooks & DQ1.23-1.24 2.Intro to JMB & DQ1.25-1.26 3.Start Rev. Prob. 1I

13 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public: Brooks Procedural Posture: US Court of Appeals for 7 th Cir (Wisc, Ill, Ind.) Federal Court b/c Diversity Jurisdiction (P80) Ps = Pennsylvania Citizens D = Illinois Corporation Under Erie, Federal Court applies state law: Job is to determine what Illinois would do Court clearly not very sympathetic to D, but not operating on clean slate Questions?

14 SHENANDOAH (DQ1.23-1.24) APPALACHIAN TRAIL

15 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public Brooks & DQ1.23 (Shenandoah) Purpose of Exclusion & Less Restrictive Alternatives DQ1.23: If their right to exclude is limited, what are the possible harms to the landowners in Brooks?

16 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public Brooks & DQ1.23 (Shenandoah) Purpose of Exclusion & Less Restrictive Alternatives Possible Harms to O in Brooks Include: Professional Gamblers = (Maybe) Organized Crime Professional Gamblers = (Maybe) Organized Crime Reputed presence might discourage others from betting Actual presence increases risk of actual crime Expertise + Access to Funds  Loss of $$ for O? Expertise + Access to Funds  Loss of $$ for O? Should we treat this potential loss as a significant concern?

17 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public Brooks & DQ1.23 (Shenandoah) Purpose of Exclusion & Less Restrictive Alternatives Expertise + Access to Funds  Possible Loss of $$ for O: Significant Concern? Could Characterize as Inevitable Risk of This Business (i.e. “Tough!) –OR- Potential Catastrophic Loss O Should Be Able to Limit Fact on P80: Ps lost 110 out of 140 betting days: Why does court include this fact? Argument that this fact is not very significant?

18 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public Brooks & DQ1.23 (Shenandoah) Purpose of Exclusion & Less Restrictive Alternatives Expertise + Access to Funds  Possible Loss of $$ for O Possible less restrictive alternative to address this concern: Limit on amount one person can bet. Pros & Cons? (Worry: Some Pros ARE Cons)

19 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public Brooks & DQ1.23 (Shenandoah) Purpose of Exclusion & Less Restrictive Alternatives Possible less restrictive alternative: Limit on amount one person can bet. Good idea? Treating all patrons alike; less chance of mistake BUT Easy to get around by hiring multiple bettors Though that’s also true if you try to exclude specific people Tracks may not like. Good for business to have big losses and [occasional] big wins Note this is probably not kind of solution court can do; would need legislation or negotiation

20 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public: Brooks Purpose for Inclusion/Harms from Exclusive Significant Public Interest in Allowing Access in Cases Like This?

21 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public: Brooks Purpose for Inclusion/Harms from Exclusive Significant Public Interest in Allowing Access in Cases Like This? Probably not much in ensuring professionals can bet large amounts in person at track Concerns: Exclusion b/c mistake re identity or facts E.g., Federal No-Fly Lists E.g., NY case cited in Brooks (P81): Coley Madden mistaken for Owney Madden

22 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public: Brooks Comparisons with Other Kinds of Businesses: Casinos Ps Asked Court in Brooks to Apply Uston In Uston, NJ SCt seems to apply Innkeeper Rule to casinos 7 th Cir. Refuses to Apply NJ Case; Not Followed in Illinois NJ Doesn’t Extend to Racetracks Anyway Could Also Distinguish on Facts Card Counting = Skill Accessible to All (v. Inside Info on Horses/Jockeys) Casinos Covered by Special Statutes/Licensing (so explicit regulatory power in state govt)

23 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public: Brooks: Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public: Brooks: Comparisons with Other Businesses: DQ1.24 Arguments re Extending Innkeeper Rules to Cover Stadiums & Racetracks Include: Comparisons to Inns & Common Carriers (& Monopoly Theory) Heavy state regulation & relatively few racetracks, so like monopoly But arguably less important than inns & common carriers Not crucial at time of arrival; extortion of patrons unlikely Less public interest in ensuring universal access. (Cf. P81: Description of innkeeper & common carrier as “public callings”)

24 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public: Brooks: Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public: Brooks: Comparisons with Other Businesses: DQ1.24 (Shenandoah) Arguments re Innkeeper Rules for Stadiums & Racetracks Include: From the Court: (P82-83) Suggestion that large open invitation might mean O should lose discretion. -BUT- (P83) Suggestion that market forces here likely to discourage many types of arbitrary exclusions. Not Mentioned in Readings: Often Significant Public Funding & Gov’t Support for Stadium Construction; Could View as Implied Contract w Public for Access

25 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public: Brooks: Closing Points Other jurisdictions generally follow Brooks (even NJ) Only Exception I Know is California Civil Rights Act Language (See P84-85) looks like ordinary civil rights statute Cal. SCt reads it to ban “arbitrary discrimination” of any kind E.g., Orloff (1951) (racetrack case) Can’t exclude people w reputations for immoral character Person in Q had prior off-track gambling conviction & reputation as gambler/bookmaker

26 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public: Brooks: Closing Points: Final Continuum Can exclude anyone for any reason (Common Law re most businesses) Can exclude for any reason except limited list of forbidden characteristics (Typical Civil Rights Statutes) No “arbitrary discrimination.” (California Civil Rights Act) Must accept anyone who shows up w $$ unless specific prior harmful conduct. (Common Law Innkeeper Rule & maybe casinos under Uston). Qs on Brooks?

27 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public Transition Quote (P84) “[T]he more private property is devoted to public use, the more it must accommodate the rights which inhere in individual members of the general public who use that property.” --Uston quoting State v. Schmid.

28 PROPERTY D (2/3) Right to Exclude cont’d 1.Brooks & DQ1.23-1.24 2.Intro to JMB & DQ1.25-1.26 3.Start Rev. Prob. 1I

29 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public JMB: Overview NJSCT holds that large shopping centers must permit protestors to have access to hand out leaflets on social issues. Our Coverage 1.TODAY: Relevant Interests (DQ1.25-1.26) 2.TODAY: Logic of Opinion (Me) 3.TOMORROW: Permissible Regulation (DQ1. 27) 4.TOMORROW: Relation to Other Right to Exclude Problems (DQ1.28)

30 SHENANDOAH (DQ1.25-1.26) APPALACHIAN TRAIL

31 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public JMB: DQ1.25: O’s Interests (Shenandoah) Possible harms to the owners in JMB: 1.Forced Speech 2.Psychic Harm 3.Interference with Business

32 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public JMB: DQ1.25: O’s Interests (Shenandoah) Possible harms to the owners in JMB: 1.Forced Speech 1 st Amdt Claim: Shoppers will assume leafletters speak for management, so Os effectively forced to say things they disagree with Are shoppers likely to view protestor speech that way?

33 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public JMB: DQ1.25: O’s Interests (Shenandoah) Possible harms to the owners in JMB: 1.Forced Speech 1 st Amdt Claim: Shoppers will assume leafletters speak for management, so Os effectively forced to say things they disagree with I’m skeptical that shoppers would view that way Court rejects this claim in portion of opinion not in book

34 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public JMB: DQ1.25: O’s Interests (Shenandoah) Possible harms to the owners in JMB: 1.Forced Speech (claim rejected by NJSCt) 2.Psychic Harm Feelings of Lack of Control Over Property Made Worse by Speech if Os Disagree NOTE: Genuine, but hard to Quantify Likely to be Very Significant in this Context?

35 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public JMB: DQ1.25: O’s Interests (Shenandoah) Possible harms to the owners in JMB: 1.Forced Speech (claim rejected by NJSCt) 2.Psychic Harm Would have to convince court that would make significant difference w lots of other people at mall & very broad public invitation No claims, e.g., re privacy. Plus can exclude completely when mall is closed 3.Interference with Business : Specific Concerns? Likely to be Very Significant in this Context?

36 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public JMB: DQ1.25: O’s Interests (Shenandoah) Specific Business Concerns Include: Customers May Not Like  Go Elsewhere Security/Monitoring Clean-Up Tort Liability/Insurance Interferes w Traffic Patterns/Access to Particular Tenants How significant are these harms likely to be?

37 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public JMB: DQ1.25: O’s Interests (Shenandoah) Points re Significance of Specific Business Concerns: Customers may not like, BUT if at all malls, they’ll get used to & other malls won’t be better choices Average Daily Traffic = 28,750 People Unlikely to Significantly Impact Security, Clean-Up, etc. Tort Liability  Insurance Premiums (I bet near-zero effect) Interference w Traffic & Access Might Be Problem BUT Probably Ways to Address without Complete Exclusion Not Like Foot Traffic Always Flows Smoothly!! Note Lack of Specificity re Harms to Malls

38 GARIBALDIS LIBERATOR GIUSEPPE JUSTICE MARIE, DISSENTING

39 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public JMB: DQ1.26: Public Interest (Shenandoah) What benefits to society might there be to allowing political activists to hand out leaflets at privately-owned shopping centers?

40 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public JMB: DQ1.26: Public Interest (Shenandoah) Interests of Public in Speech at Malls Include: Speakers Get Access to Folks They Might Not Otherwise Reach Few Traditional Public Spaces in Suburbs Maybe Can Target Speech to People with Particular Interests (near specific stores, etc.) How significant are these benefits likely to be?

41 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public JMB: DQ1.26: Public Interest (Shenandoah) Interests of Public in Speech at Malls: Speakers Get Access to Folks They Might Not Otherwise Reach Significance is Fact Q: Likely varies greatly with locality J. Garibaldi suggests not very significant. BUT maybe most cost-effective way to reach public in suburbs when opinion decided in 1994. Why Might 1994 Be Significant?

42 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public JMB: DQ1.26: Public Interest (Shenandoah) Interests of Public in Speech at Malls: Possible Significance of 1994 Just Before Widespread Public Internet Access May Change Calculus of Relevant Interests Maybe Os’ Interests  : Shoppers Irritated by Political Leafletters Shop Online Instead of at Malls Maybe Public Interest  : Internet Means Less Need to Access Malls to Spread Points of View

43 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public Logic of JMB: Constitutional Background Federal Cases (Discussed in JMB P87-88): Marsh: Company town: 1 st Amdt applies Logan Valley extended Marsh to shopping centers Tanner & Hudgens overrule Logan Valley & hold shopping centers are private space not addressed by federal 1st Amdt

44 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public Logic of JMB: Constitutional Background Federal v. State Constitutions Federal Constitution limits both state & federal govt power State Constitutions Can’t permit what Feds prohibit BUT State can choose to restrict itself more than Feds do E.g., by forbidding its own police from doing some searches and seizures allowed by 4 th Amdt E.g., by protecting speech more than Fedl 1 st Amdt We’ll see again in Chapter 2

45 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public Logic of JMB: Constitutional Background Pruneyard (Cal. 1979) aff’d (US 1980) Calif SCt says its state 1 st Amdt protects speech more than Fedl 1 st Amdt and gives its citizens the right to free speech in Shopping Centers Shopping Center Os appeal claiming that Calif allowing this access interferes with property rights in violation of 5 th and 14 th Amdts of Fedl Constitution: USSCt says no violation of Fedl Constitution Effectively leaves states with choice of whether to provide state protection for speech at shopping centers: Federal 1 st Amdt allows (but doesn’t require) Federal 5 th /14 th Amdts don’t forbid

46 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public Logic of JMB: Constitutional Background In JMB, NJ follows Calif & says its state 1 st Amdt gives its citizens the right to free speech in Shopping Centers Calif & NJ only states to do this through state 1 st Amdt Mass & Colo & Wash (limited) allow speech access to shopping centers on other theories Other states do not allow speech access to shopping centers; Minn & Oregon have reversed themselves since casebook was published and no longer allow

47 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public Logic of JMB: Reasoning (Schmid Analysis) JMB Follows & Applies Schmid (NJ 1980) Schmid addressed Free Speech access to Princeton Univ. (Private property often open to public) Case described in detail on P88-89 Note appeal dismissed in Schmid by USSCt (see cite on P88) - tried for fedl property rts claim as made unsuccessfully in Pruneyard & as I suggested might try in iShack

48 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public Logic of JMB: Reasoning (Schmid Analysis) JMB Follows & Applies Schmid (NJ 1980) Schmid allowed Free Speech access to Princeton Univ. = Private property often open to public Case described in detail on P88-89 Note Princeton appealed to USSCt Same Fedl property rights claim made in Pruneyard SCt refused to hear appeal (see cite on P88)

49 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public Logic of JMB: Reasoning (Schmid Analysis) JMB Follows & Applies Schmid (NJ 1980) Schmid allowed Free Speech access to Princeton Univ. Uses Three-Part Balancing Test (P89); Can Use For … Access Claims re 1 st Amdt Rights (Like JMB) Other Limits on Right to Exclude (Like Brooks) We’ll Look at in More Detail for DQ1.28 Schmid allows O to put some restrictions on access, BUT doesn’t specify what restrictions OK

50 Right to Exclude: Parcels Open to the Public Logic of JMB: Reasoning (Schmid Analysis) JMB Follows & Applies Schmid (NJ 1980) Note importance of analogy to town square. Note importance of very broad invitation by malls. Court (P91) explicitly says it is drawing on common law as well as NJ 1 st Amdt Cites/discusses Shack Again suggests can use JMB/Schmid to support other kinds of limits on rt excl besides 1 st Amdt Qs on JMB Reasoning?

51 PROPERTY D (2/3) Right to Exclude cont’d 1.Brooks & DQ1.23-1.24 2.Intro to JMB & DQ1.25-1.26 3.Start Rev. Prob. 1I

52 Right to Exclude: Review Problem 1I Client uses MWs living onsite to pick crops several wks/yr. Large meeting hall next to MW barracks MWs get Sundays off; invite MWs from nearby farms to hall for Religious Service Social Event after Client seeks advice about whether he has to allow Asked to describe legal/factual research necessary to advise

53 Right to Exclude: Review Problem 1I Legal Research Needed To Establish Legal Framework 1.Check if state roughly follows Shack by caselaw or statute. 2.Check for precise rules & permissible restrictions. 3.Look for possible caselaw/statutory language addressing specific issues that might arise, e.g., …

54 Right to Exclude: Review Problem 1I Legal Research Needed To Establish Legal Framework 3.Look for possible caselaw/statutory language addressing: a.Possible Distinction between i)People invited by MWs Check if limited like FL to living quarters Check if limited like Shack if “harm to others”? ii) People who get access w/o invitation b.Relevant tests used in Shack (e.g., customary assns.) c.Genl info about MWs’ use of off-duty time

55 Right to Exclude: Review Problem 1I Legal & Factual Research Relevant to the Following Aspects of the Problem … (Notes on my list of topics): Lots of ways to approach/organize this problem I’m not looking for any particular structure. Any set of categories/headings (including mine) will overlap to some extent. I tried to design this list to help you see issues; good answers would hit on most of these topics somewhere.
