AbstractSamuel LaSelva has challenged the argument that mandatory retirement is a form of age discrimination and, as such, is unjust and unconstitutional. However, the alternative view that justice requires mandatory retirement seems incompatible with a liberal conception of justice.

Such an assessment leads to the conclusion that mandatory retirement is neither constitutional nor just.
