PUBLICATIONS
Administering Justice: Removing Statutory Barriers to Reentry, 83 U. Colo. L.
Rev. 715 (2012). This article argues that states should create administrative relief
mechanisms to remove or mitigate the collateral consequences of criminal
convictions. I propose a certificate model that includes a robust legal enforcement
mechanism, early sentencing intervention, and clear regulations for the uniform
administration of the certificate program.
A Better Balancing: Reconsidering Pre-Conviction DNA Extraction from Federal
Arrestees, 90 N.C. L. Rev. Addendum 157 (2012). This essay argues for a
recalibration of the weight that courts currently place on the privacy interest in, and

the government’s need for, DNA samples from individuals who are presumed
innocent. (with Kevin Lapp)
Derrick Bell’s Community-Based Classroom, 2 Colum. J. Race & L. Spec. Feat. 44
(2012). This essay argues that Derrick Bell enhanced his participatory pedagogical
approach to teaching constitutional law by intentionally creating community in the
classroom. I propose Bell’s community-based classroom as one solution to the
current indictment that legal education fails to provide students with adequate
training for legal practice.
RACE, RACISM, AND AMERICAN LAW TEACHER’S MANUAL (6th ed. 2008), with
Derrick Bell. This manual, written to accompany the textbook, Race, Racism, and
American Law, discusses recent doctrine, and provides class plans, hypothetical
cases, and discussion questions.
WORKS IN
PROGRESS
Access to Civil Justice for Americans of Average Means. This edited book will
gather comprehensive empirical data along with descriptive research on the unmet
civil legal needs for Americans of moderate means, the various approaches legal
institutions have developed to attempt to meet those needs, and the practicable
avenues for reform. (with Sam Estreicher)
Ritualizing Reintegration. Drawing on theories of punishment, constitutional law,
and recent criminology literature, this project expands on my prior research about
certificates and proposes a range of administrative models to restore legal rights and
facilitate the reintegration of people with criminal convictions.
Punitive Dismissals. This paper explores constitutional and policy implications
arising from criminal dispositions that require probationary periods before a case is
dismissed. (with James Jacobs)
