This paper argues against the assumption held in the literature since Chomsky (1995) that location of a phrase caused by the morphological property of a head targets a specifier of the head. By observing the configuration resulting from Case assignment and A-bar dislocation, I conclude that the head selects a specifier of the complement of the head as the position in issue―resulting in an Exceptional Case Marking (ECM) configuration, in traditional terms. With additional assumptions, the conclusion entails that derivation proceeds either from the bottom up, requiring specifiers to tuck in below heads, or entirely from the top down, with no need of tucking in.
