This new edition of the book first published in 1989 has been completely revised and updated to reflect the latest medical and legal developments. In addition, it now includes more than two dozen problems for those who prefer to teach using the "problem method." Adams, Closen, Leonard, Jarvis, and Bobinski, five recognized AIDS law experts who collectively have nearly 80 years of teaching experience and have published more than a dozen books, have co-authored this Third Edition. Carrying on the tradition of its predecessor editions, this book offers skillfully edited cases, extensive notes, and coverage of a wide array of topics, from torts and crimes, to family law and estate planning. At the same time, however, this new edition has been streamlined to allow even the most time-pressed instructors to comfortably reach all of the chapters (and to give those with more time the opportunity to schedule guest speakers and in-class student presentations). It is accompanied by a detailed teacher's manual designed to help both beginning and experienced instructors.

During the past fifty years, legal issues arising from the sexual diversity of our society have moved front and center in many fields, including constitutional law, domestic relations, employment law, and civil rights law. This book provides the basis for a survey course about how lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, transgendered persons, and others whose sexual expression differs from the majoritarian norm confront the law, and how the law responds to them. Although the focus is on United States law, references are made at appropriate points to legal developments in other countries. The book also provides textual background for students who have not completed a basic course in constitutional law, making it usable for an elective course in any part of the law school curriculum. The first edition of this casebook, published shortly after the Lawrence and Goodridge cases had begun a revolution in American law relating to sexual minorities, is now revised and expanded to incorporate the important developments flowing from those decisions and bring the story up to date for the second decade of the 21st century.

Legal issues arising from the sexual diversity of our society are front and center in many legal fields. The Supreme Court, which selectively controls its docket, now considers sexuality-related cases almost every term, and the pace of litigation in lower courts keeps increasing. Responding to the surge of new developments, the authors have reorganized the front end of the book to emphasize the diversity of issues by providing a chronological journey through the Supreme Court s treatment of sexuality law issues from the middle of the twentieth century to the present. Chapters on sexual orientation and gender identity issues in the lower courts follow. The family law chapters have been reworked to account for the decisions in Windsor and Obergefell and the numerous issues that have arisen since implementation of these cases began. The final chapter concludes with selected topics on subjects yet to receive Supreme Court review.
