Administrative Law - Johnson Act - Jurisdiction Of Federal Courts To Grant Injunctions Against Enforcement Of Rate Orders Of State Commissions, Donald L. Quaife
Administrative Law - Johnson Act - Jurisdiction Of Federal Courts To Grant Injunctions Against Enforcement Of Rate Orders Of State Commissions, Donald L. Quaife
Michigan Law Review
Two years have elapsed since the passage of the Johnson Act restricting the jurisdiction of federal district courts to enjoin rate-making orders of state utility commissions; and the time is now ripe to survey the case law which has grown up under the act and to evaluate its results. It will be recalled that this statute came as the culmination of a long history of agitation to prevent federal court interference with what many believed to be a function which local state courts were better fitted to review. The interference aimed at had resulted from the amendment to the Judiciary …
The Proposed United States Administrative Court, Robert M. Cooper
The Proposed United States Administrative Court, Robert M. Cooper
Michigan Law Review
The last half century has witnessed a constant, almost relentless, increase of governmental responsibilities and services in both federal and state spheres of control. Due to the changing needs of our economic and social order, the desire for speedy, efficient and inexpensive settlement of controversies and the imperative need of specialized administrators, the task of performing these new functions has not infrequently been delegated to administrative tribunals or commissions. Neither the legislature nor the judiciary was capable of administering the myriad details or countless controversies which inevitably accompanied these new functions of government. As a consequence an administrative branch of …
Constitutional Law-Securities Act Of 1933-Right Of Registrant To Withdraw Registration Statement Filed With Commission
Michigan Law Review
Petitioner filed a registration statement with the Securities Exchange Commission covering a proposed issue of securities. After examining the statement, the commission concluded that it contained false and misleading information concerning certain material facts, and thereupon instituted a proceeding to compel petitioner to appear and answer certain questions pertinent to the papers filed. At the hearing, petitioner sought to withdraw the registration statement but was denied permission to do so. Upon application of the Securities Exchange Commission to the district court, an order was granted compelling petitioner to appear and answer the questions. On appeal to the Supreme Court of …
Administrative Tribunals - Distinction In Legal Effect Between Legislative And Quasi-Judicial Orders Of The Interstate Commerce Commission
Michigan Law Review
The legal effect of orders of the Interstate Commerce Commission involves questions upon which there has been much dictum and considerable confusion of the issues. The result has been a body of law which, if not carefully explored, may prove to be a trap for the unwary. In the past few years, however, it is apparent that the courts are making more definite pronouncements which are more clearly pointing the way to distinguishing the various possible issues. The confusion unquestionably results from the heterogeneous nature of the functions performed by the Commission. A typical example is the rate-making function. It …

Constitutional Law-Agricultural Adjustment Act-The General Welfare Clause And The Tenth Amendment
Constitutional Law-Agricultural Adjustment Act-The General Welfare Clause And The Tenth Amendment
Michigan Law Review
In what is without question the most important decision rendered in recent years the Supreme Court of the United States has swept away the legal basis of the Agricultural Adjustment Administration. The processing tax, an essential part of a plan for the control of production, has been ruled unconstitutional as involving an invasion of the powers reserved to the states. Unlike the case of Schechter Poultry Corporation v. United States, in which the National Industrial Recovery Act was held invalid by a unanimous Court, this pillar of the New Deal's vast recovery program was destroyed by a six-to-three decision, …
Statutes-Approval Of Public Works Projects Under Nira
Statutes-Approval Of Public Works Projects Under Nira
Michigan Law Review
Acting under approval and order of the Federal Emergency Public Works Administrator, the United States commenced construction of the Parker Dam across the Colorado River over the objection of the state of Arizona, which was not a party to the Colorado River Compact. Arizona interfered forcibly. A bill was brought by the United States to secure a perpetual injunction against such interference. In response to an argument by Arizona that the dam was not properly authorized, the United States attempted to justify under a recommendation of the chief of engineers as sufficient authorization under section 202 of the National Industrial …
Administrative Law-Operation Of Federal Statute Creating Presumption Against Suicide In Compensation Cases
Michigan Law Review
A carpenter making repairs nearby, hearing a sharp report followed by groans, found plaintiff's husband lying upon the floor. He died without recovering consciousness from a bullet wound through the breast. The pistol to which the fatal bullet was traced lay in a partly closed drawer which was spattered with blood as was the counter near by. The ejected shell lay some feet away in the position where it would be found had the pistol been discharged directly in front of deceased's breast. There were powder burns on his clothes. Contradictory evidence of deceased's mental state was adduced toward the …
