Securities - Rights Of Used Car Purchasers Under Trust Receipt Financing, Walter H. Weiner S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

The recent enactment of the Uniform Trust Receipts Act: by the Michigan legislature was an important and much needed revision in the Michigan law of chattel security. Although the UTRA has been referred to as a " . . . perplexing maze of technical phrases ... ," it is submitted that the act contains a clear presentation of the changes which are to be effected, and should go far in freeing the financing of goods in the flow of commerce from some anachronistic shackles. The particular intent of this comment is to explore the impact of the UTRA and other …

Personal Liability Of Corporate Officers For Ultra Vires Contracts, J. F. Dirisio

Vanderbilt Law Review

A director or other officer of a corporation, when contracting on its behalf, acts as its agent and the laws of agency are generally applicable. This note presents those problems, apparently unique to corporation law, in the liability of an agent who, with authority, contracts for a principal who has no authority.' Of no concern here are those instances where, either because of ratification or estoppel, the corporation itself is liable, since if the principal is bound the other party has no ground of complaint against the agent.

An officer of a corporation, contracting in excess of or without authority …

Section 112(B)(6): Benefit Or Burden?, Raymond Whiteaker

Vanderbilt Law Review

The general provision in the Internal Revenue Code pertaining to the liquidation of corporations is section 115 (c). Under this section gain or loss on a liquidation is recognized to the extent that the assets received in liquidation exceed or fail to exceed the basis of the share-holder's stock.

The nonrecognition provision first appeared in the Revenue Act of 1935 as section 110 (a).' This …

Overlapping, Duplication And Conflicts Among Municipal Corporations, Alvin E. Evans

Vanderbilt Law Review

There is a well-known principle of municipal government that there cannot be two municipalities possessed of the same or similar powers, privileges and jurisdiction covering the same territory at the same time. Perhaps the earliest expression of this principle may be found in an early English dictum to that effect where the court explains why such a proposition must be true, viz., "[F]or, instead of good order, that would only be productive of anarchy." Whether in our conglomerate of municipalities we have abided by this principle or have created duplications, overlappings and conflicts due to the vast multiplicity of municipal …

Constitutional Law - Commerce Clause - State Statute Requiring Interstate Motor Carrier To Secure A Permit, Marvin O. Young S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

Petitioner brought an action in an Arkansas state court to enjoin enforcement of a state statute which required all contract carriers using the highways of the state to secure a permit from the state Public Service Commission. The Arkansas Supreme Court found that five driver-owners who had been arrested while transporting petitioner's product in interstate commerce without such a permit were "contract carriers" within the meaning of the statute. Neither petitioner nor any of the drivers had applied for a state permit. Under the terms of the statute, granting of the permit was contingent on certain factors, such as the …

Jesse Carter Opinions

The denial of the manufacturer's application for a preliminary injunction was not proper because it was based solely on the finding that interstate commerce was involved and a change in the law provided that that was no longer the crucial issue.
