Housing Clinic Argues Before Vermont Supreme Court
On Dec. 4, 2025, the Vermont Supreme Court denied rehearing in Bank of New York Mellon v. Quinn, affirming its Nov. 7 decision requiring mortgage servicers to show that they have a legal right to foreclose at the start of foreclosure proceedings. The Court's decision sided with arguments advanced in an amicus brief by the Housing Clinic at Yale Law School's Jerome N. Frank Legal Services Organization. According to the clinic, this decision prevents mortgage providersfrom filing first and papering over their poor recordkeeping later.
With the permission of the homeowner in the case, the Court granted the clinic oral argument time, and third-year law student Dylan Shapiro argued the case in Montpelier before the Court in October 2025.
The clinic represented amici Vermont Legal Aid and the National Consumer Law Center, arguing that mortgage servicers cannot foreclose on homeowners without showing clear legal entitlement to do so at the time they filed their complaint. The clinic's briefing and argument drew on the clinic's and amici's extensive experience representing homeowners in mortgage litigation and state court appellate advocacy. Besides arguing several appeals for clients in Connecticut, the Clinic has filed amicus briefs in seven other states' appellate courts: California, Florida, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, North Carolina, and Vermont.
The Court adopted many of the arguments advanced in the clinic's brief, crediting the clinic's argument that federal courts have incorporated standing doctrine to require that a foreclosing plaintiff be the holder or assignee of a note before initiating foreclosure proceedings. It also adopted the clinic's argument that "other states similarly require foreclosure plaintiffs to establish standing . . . at the outset of the litigation," noting several of the examples highlighted by amici in their brief.
At oral argument, the clinic pushed back on the plaintiff's request that the Court dismiss the case without prejudice to refiling, which would have given the mortgage servicer a blank check to foreclose on the homeowner again despite the servicer's initial errors, according to the clinic. The Court adopted amici's request that the lower court decide the issue, giving the lower court an opportunity to consider the mortgage servicer's litigation conduct before deciding whether to allow it to continue foreclosure proceedings.
The clinic is grateful that the Court affirmed that mortgage servicers, like all other plaintiffs, must show that they are legally entitled to initiate legal proceedings. The clinic believes this will protect Vermont homeowners from the severe financial and emotional harms that the foreclosure process entails. Yale Law School students Cris Guevera-Plunkett '26, Ndeye Ndione '27, Sophia Perez '27, and Dylan Shapiro '26 worked on the brief, along with Clinical Professor of Law Anika Singh Lemar and Clinical Lecturer in Law Jeffrey Gentes, co-supervisors of the Housing Clinic.

WashU Expert: Eliminating Missouri income tax would hurt low-income residents
By Neil Schoenherr
Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe has called for a phaseout of the state's income tax, a move that would cause the most pain to the state's low-income residents, says an expert on tax law at Washington University in St. Louis.
"Consider a lower-income taxpayer earning $30,000 annually and a higher-income taxpayer earning $100,000 annually," said Sarah Narkiewicz, director of the Low Income Taxpayer Clinic

WashU Expert: Eliminating Missouri income tax would hurt low-income residents
By Neil Schoenherr
Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe has called for a phaseout of the state's income tax, a move that would cause the most pain to the state's low-income residents, says an expert on tax law at Washington University in St. Louis.
"Consider a lower-income taxpayer earning $30,000 annually and a higher-income taxpayer earning $100,000 annually," said Sarah Narkiewicz, director of the Low Income Taxpayer Clinicat the School of Law.
"If both spend $5,000 on taxable goods with a 10% sales tax, both pay $500 in sales tax. However, $500 represents 1.67% of the lower-income taxpayer's income but only 0.5% of the higher-income taxpayer's income."
Individual income tax, she said, is generally considered progressive taxation, meaning that higher earners pay a larger percentage of their income in taxes.
Kehoe proposes increasing sales taxes on services to help narrow the bridge of eliminating income taxes. Sales taxes on goods likely would rise as well. Missouri voters could be asked to consider a proposal in November that would eliminate the individual income tax and expand sales and use taxes in return.
Currently, nine states do not impose income taxes: Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington and Wyoming.
"Eliminating state income tax appears attractive at first glance," Narkiewicz said. "Most people would welcome keeping more of their income rather than paying it in taxes. Additionally, eliminating individual income tax might attract more residents and businesses to Missouri, potentially increasing state revenue through other means."
However, she said, significant hidden costs may not be immediately apparent.
"State taxes fund essential services that residents often take for granted," Narkiewicz said. "The state provides funding for K-12 education and public universities. It also finances Medicaid and health-care programs, maintains state roads and bridges, supports state police, handles state administration, funds conservation efforts and promotes economic development, among other functions."
Currently, Missouri's state income tax represents 60-70% of the general revenue fund that supports social services, education and health-care expenses.
"If Missouri eliminates this tax, the state must either generate revenue through alternative means or reduce services," she said.
"New Hampshire and Texas both offer fewer public services compared to other states," Narkiewicz said. "Alaska, South Dakota and Wyoming generate substantial revenue by taxing natural resource extraction. Florida, Nevada and Tennessee generate additional revenue through tourism.
"Missouri does not fit naturally into any of these categories."
People often perceive sales tax as less burdensome because they pay small amounts incrementally, she said.
"Income tax is withheld from paychecks, paid through quarterly estimates or paid with annual tax returns," she said. "These larger, more visible amounts create a greater psychological impact, making sales tax seem less burdensome. Whether this perception reflects actual tax burden is debatable."

LITTLE ROCK, Arkansas, Jan. 22 -- The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences issued the following news release:

UAMS Receives $3.5 Million from CDC to Improve Colorectal Cancer Screening
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently awarded more than $3.5 million to the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) to lead a five-year statewide effort to improve the rate of colorectal cancer screening in the state.
Arkansas ranks fifth nationally for overall cancer mortality and sixth nationally for colorectal cancer mortality, making colorectal cancer screeninga major public health concern statewide.
The grant will enable physicians and researchers at UAMS who focus on primary care health outcomes to establish and enhance partnerships with other entities in Arkansas who also have an interest in improving the screening rate, for the purpose of adopting integrated practices based on the best available science.
Called Promoting Resource and Outreach to Enhance Colorectal Testing for Arkansas (PROTECT-AR), the UAMS-led effort will include data monitoring and continuous quality improvements. Its goal is to enhance completion rates of all colorectal cancer screening regardless of which approved screening method is used.
"We are collaborating with several groups within UAMS, including the Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute, to implement new workflows for cancer screening navigation and follow-up, as well as the Institute for Community Health Innovation for evaluation and readiness activities," said Stephen Foster, M.D., the principal investigator and a member of the Cancer Institute's Cancer Prevention and Population Sciences research program.
"While the primary focus of this project is to improve colorectal cancer screening rates and follow-up within the UAMS Regional Campuses, the initiative will expand to include several Baptist Health clinics," he added.
"This funding allows us to build the kind of statewide partnerships that can truly move the needle on colorectal cancer outcomes in Arkansas," said Michael Birrer, M.D., Ph.D., director of the UAMS Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute and a UAMS vice chancellor. "Colorectal cancer is one of the most preventable and treatable cancers when it's found early, yet too many Arkansans are still not being screened. The reality is that we can't have enough colorectal cancer screening opportunities to address the impact this disease is having on families and communities in our state.
Foster is an assistant professor in the UAMS College of Medicine Department of Family and Preventive Medicine, the medical director of Population Health for the UAMS Primary Care and Population Health clinical services, and the director of the Department of Family and Preventive Medicine's Office of Digital Health. He thanked the grant team at the UAMS Institute for Digital Health & Innovation for their assistance with the grant submission process.
The funding is being dispersed in annual increments through Aug. 29, 2030. The first installment of $544,420 was awarded in late September.
UAMS leads sustained, statewide efforts to improve colorectal cancer screening and reduce colorectal cancer deaths. That work began with the launch of an education and screening initiative led by Ronda Henry-Tillman, M.D., a surgical oncologist who also serves as chief of breast surgical oncology. These longstanding efforts have continued to expand in recent years, including a 2025 partnership between the UAMS Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute and Arcare to screen up to 80% of eligible patients at 11 Arcare clinics around the state.
"For more than a decade, UAMS has been a leader in colorectal cancer screening, treatment and research across Arkansas, with a clear focus on reducing disparities and saving lives," said Jonathan Laryea, M.D., professor and chief of colon and rectal surgery at UAMS. "From supporting legislation to lower the screening age and ensure insurance coverage to building strong community partnerships, UAMS has remained committed to expanding access to high-quality screening and care. This CDC award further strengthens the statewide infrastructure needed to prevent colorectal cancer and improve outcomes for patients in every corner of our state."

Professor Samantha Prince presented at the Association of American Law Schools (AALS) 2026 Annual Meeting as part of the Section on Employee Benefits & Executive Compensation panel titled "Trump 2.0 Impacts on Employee Benefits." As a member of the panel, Prince presented on her recent publication, "Nest Eggs and Lifelines:The Overlooked Strain of Economic Volatility on 401(k) Participants."
Her presentation included a discussion of the economic volatility resulting from President Donald Trump's policies, such as tariffs and immigrant deportation, and their detrimental impact on retirement savings. Retirees rely on 401(k) plan balances to fund their living costs, which are higher than anticipated due to inflation. But the effects of economic volatility on 401(k) values extend well beyond retirees. Because these accounts serve a dual purpose--funding both retirement and, at times, current spending--workers who are years away from retirement also feel the impact. As such, Prince's discussion included the ways in which inflation and recessionary pressures drive pre-retirement withdrawals.

Professor Samantha Prince is an associate professor of law. She has a Master of Laws in Taxation from Georgetown University Law Center and was a partner in a regional law firm where she handled transactional matters that ranged from an initial public offering to regular representation of a publicly traded company. A significant part of her practice was in employee benefits, including retirement plan design and operation. Her expertise from practice has fueled her research, enabling her to become an expert on 401(k) vesting schedules, employee benefits transparency, and gig work. In practice, most of her clients were small- to medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs, including start-ups. Professor Prince brought her practice knowledge to the Law School and established the Penn State Dickinson Law entrepreneurship program. She is an advisor for the Entrepreneurship Law Certificate that is available to students and is the founder and moderator of the Inside Entrepreneurship Law blog.

Mines geologists look to 66-million-year-old "clues" to predict future of global rainfall
By Emilie Rusch
What can the distant past - some 66 to 48 million years ago - tell us about future rainfall?
A new study led by researchers at Colorado School of Mines reveals how Earth's water cycle responded during one of the warmest periods in its history, using clues left in the geological record to better understand how rainfall behaves when the planet gets very hot.
The results, published last monthin the journal Nature Geoscience, challenge the commonly held view that wet places get wetter when the climate warms and drier places become drier.
"Understanding how rainfall behaves under a warming climate is an area of major uncertainty in future climate projections," said Piret Plink-Bjorklund, professor of geology and geological engineering and co-author of the paper.
To conduct the interdisciplinary study, Plink-Bjorklund and lead author Jake Slawson PhD '25 teamed up with atmospheric science researchers at the University of Utah. The Mines sedimentologists analyzed proxy data from the fossil record - things like plant fossils, soil chemistry and river deposits - for clues on when rain fell and how often, while co-authors Thomas Reichler, professor of atmospheric sciences at Utah, and graduate student Daniel Baldassare conducted the climate modeling.
The geologic record has a lot to say about the climate at the time, Plink-Bjorklund said. Plant fossils can be compared to their nearest living relatives and the climate conditions where they grow today. Soil chemistry is sensitive to moisture and temperature - different processes occur at different conditions and result in different types of soils with distinct chemical signatures.
"Looking at the river deposits to inform about rainfall is new and in large part developed by my research group," Plink-Bjorklund said. "We can distinguish deposits of flash floods from deposits of more moderate floods, and this gives us a measure of rainfall intensity."
From this geologic evidence, researchers found that rainfall appears to be much less regular under extreme warming, often occurring in intense downpours separated by prolonged dry spells. Polar regions were wet, even monsoonal, while many mid-latitude and continental interiors became drier overall.
The Paleogene Period, 66 to 48 million years ago, is considered a possible analogue for worst case climate change scenarios. The period began with the sudden demise of the dinosaurs and saw the rise of mammals in terrestrial ecosystems. It was also a period of intense warming culminating in the well-studied event called the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum, or PETM, when levels of heat were 18 degrees Celsius (32 degrees Fahrenheit) warmer than they were just before humans began releasing greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere.
"Extreme global warmth can fundamentally reorganize rainfall patterns, producing desert-like conditions at mid-latitudes while polar regions experience high rainfall," Plink-Bjorklund said. "Importantly, this aridity was driven not by lower average rainfall, but by shorter wet seasons and longer gaps between rain events, demonstrating that accurate predictions of future climate risk depend on understanding rainfall variability and extremes, not just annual averages."
Read the full paper, "More intermittent mid-latitude precipitation accompanied extreme early Palaeogene warmth," in Nature Geoscience. Funding for the research was provided by the National Science Foundation.

Speech and Hearing Center accepting insurance, expanding access to hearing and balance services
The Louisiana Tech University Speech and Hearing Center now accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and many private insurance plans, making comprehensive hearing and balance care more accessible and affordable for the Ruston-Lincoln Parish community and beyond.
The Speech and Hearing Center provides comprehensive services to individuals of all ages, including hearing and balance evaluations, hearing aid selection and fitting,balance rehabilitation, tinnitus management, and custom earmolds for hearing protection and swim plugs. The center serves Louisiana Tech students, faculty, staff, alumni, and area residents while also supporting supervised clinical practicum, diagnostic services, treatment, and research within the School of Communication Sciences and Disorders.
With insurance billing now available, eligible patients can use their benefits for conditions such as hearing loss, vertigo, and tinnitus, significantly reducing out-of-pocket costs and improving access to needed care.
This expanded access is made possible through a new grant-funded partnership between the Louisiana Tech Hearing Center and the Department of Health Informatics and Information Management (HIIM), both housed within the College of Applied and Natural Sciences. The initiative is supported by an $8,915 Jonesboro State Bank - Pledge 10 Grant and a $5,000 grant from the Lincoln Chamber of Commerce.
The grants fund the creation of a Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance billing specialist position at the Hearing Center, removing financial and administrative barriers for patients while strengthening the long-term sustainability of audiology services in the region.
The project, titled Enhancing Access to Audiology for the Underserved Through Developing a Medicare and Medicaid Billing Specialist Position at the Louisiana Tech Hearing Center, is led by Jamie Bahm, MHI, RHIA, CCS, assistant professor of graduate studies in Health Informatics, and Lindsey Carswell, MHA, RHIA, CBCS, assistant professor of undergraduate studies in Health Informatics and Information Management, in collaboration with Dr. Melinda Bryan, Ph.D., CCC-A, director of Louisiana Tech's Doctor of Audiology program.
Through the partnership, HIIM faculty and students provide the expertise and operational support needed for the Hearing Center to bill public and private insurers.
"In addition to providing care to Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries, this partnership gives undergraduate students within the Department of Health Informatics and Information Management more opportunity for experiential learning, which will create better-equipped health information professionals," said Bahm.
"It's a win-win," Carswell said. "Our community benefits from expanded access to services, and our students gain hands-on experience with compliant, patient-centered healthcare operations."
"We are thankful for the opportunity to work with the faculty and students in the Department of Health Informatics and Information Management," Bryan said. "Their presence in the Louisiana Tech Hearing Center allows patients to use their insurance benefits for hearing and balance services while helping us increase productivity and maintain high-quality, patient-centered care."
The Lincoln Chamber of Commerce grant supports local businesses as they educate and train individuals to meet current and future workforce needs, contributing to a strong and sustainable regional economy. The Jonesboro State Bank Pledge 10 Grant invests 10% of the bank's profits back into Jackson Parish and surrounding areas to support innovative projects in education, youth development, financial literacy, and community enrichment.
