In 1770, Antoine-Louis Séguier, the avocat général (king's advocate) of the Parlement of Paris, defended Jean-Baptiste Dubarle, a Parisian wine merchant, against charges of theft, seduction, kidnapping, and adultery initiated by a carpenter, Eustache Chefdeville. For all of the offenses, Chefdeville demanded monetary reparation.The case, summarized in a mémoire, connects the history of family law in France under the ancien régime to the skillful use of lawyerly forensics.

This article explores a core question in the law of slavery: how was an individual's status as slave or free socially discerned and formally adjudicated? Under the doctrine of “freedom by prescription,” a person who had in good faith “lived as free” could argue that the absence of exercise of ownership for a specified term of years extinguished a prior owner's title. In the medieval Siete Partidas of Alfonso the Wise, which continued as a legal point of reference in Louisiana well after the end of Spanish rule, both the law of status and the law of property confirmed this path to freedom.

Abstract:
The attack perpetrated by Brigate Rosse (Red Brigades) on 16 March 1978 in Rome, the kidnapping of Aldo Moro and the assassination of his five bodyguards opens Chapter Seven. This investigation looks at the intertwining of factual accounts and fictional representations of Via Fani, the place where Moro was taken, Via Montalcini, the location of the apartment where he was kept prisoner for fifty-four days, and Via Caetani, the street where his body would be found in the boot of a car. This chapter focuses on documentary and fiction films of the incident and uses the live coverage of the events which was broadcast on Italy’s public television from the day of the kidnapping to that of the assassination. Akin to the case of the Munich massacre, the television reports on the Moro case were used in documentaries and in re-enactments of the events, and have also been shown on television as part of the mise-en-scène of a fiction film.

Abstract:
Abstract Richard Loeb and Na than Leopold plotted every detail of their planned abduction (a plot deeply informed by their knowledge of actual cases and detective fiction)—everything except the identity of the victim. This they left to chance and opportunity. Even the ransom notes, which were painstakingly cast in advance, left the name of the victim’s family deliberately blank, to be filled in only after the crime had been committed. On the day of the kidnapping, Leopold and Loeb had considered several children (all boys) who caught their attention in the school yard of the elite Harvard School in Chicago where they went in search of a victim. But only Robert (Bobby) Franks, a neighbor of Loeb’s and a distant cousin, presented just the combination of accessibility and opportunity that would pay off. It was therefore fourteen-year-old Bobby who, in the late afternoon of May 21, 1924, was lured into the Willys-Knight automobile that Leopold rented especially for the occasion.
