Trusts And Estates - Relationship By Affinity-Meaning Of The Word "Stepchild" In A Tax Statute, Harold S. Lentz S. Ed.
Michigan Law Review
A widower with two children married Sarah Bordeaux and predeceased her. A child of the marriage died in infancy. The two children were raised by Sarah as if she had been their natural mother. A strong filial relationship developed, and at the death of Sarah in 1949, the bulk of her property passed to the two children by will.

The Fourteenth Amendment And The "Separate But Equal" Doctrine, Joseph S. Ransmeier
The Fourteenth Amendment And The "Separate But Equal" Doctrine, Joseph S. Ransmeier
Michigan Law Review
Recent cases in which the Court has overthrown enforced separation in public higher education on the ground of inequality but without consideration of the merits of the separate but equal rule have been the occasion for an outpouring of law review discussion on the subject. The present paper is a part of this stream.

Michigan Law Review
When the problem confronting the judge is one of recognizing a divorce decree awarded by a foreign state, then once again the domiciliary concept will be used to determine the jurisdictional competency of the court making the award. The foreign divorce decree will be accepted as lawful and proper if it was given by the court of the husband's domicile or if the decree is one which would be accepted as valid by that court. The authority underlying the latter proposition originates in the case of Armitage v. Attorney-General. It is the purpose of this comment to examine briefly …
