Emory Law Professor Frank S. Alexander comments in the Indianapolis Star on a new Indiana state law that pressures errant landlords to clean up their vacant properties or face state take-over, and in The Guardian on a new local regulation banning unmarried couples with more than one child from occupying homes in the town of Black Jack, Missouri. Alexander is interim dean of Emory University School of Law and co-director of the Center for the Study of Law and Religion, where his research focuses on how housing laws are defining families.
