Impact Of The Commercial Code On Liability Of Parties To Negotiable Instruments In Michigan, Roy L. Steinheimer Jr.

Michigan Law Review

Since the Uniform Commercial Code is now effective in Pennsylvania and is under active consideration by official bodies in other states, it seems appropriate to investigate in some detail the impacts which this proposed legislation would have upon the accumulated business, legislative and judicial understanding and experience in the commercial law area in a specific jurisdiction. As an illustration of the problems which will be faced by judges, lawyers and businessmen in any jurisdiction which adopts the code, the writer has chosen to analyze some impacts which the code would have on commercial law in Michigan.

Noise Nuisances: Commercial Enterprises V. Owners Of Residential Property, G. H. Kemker

Vanderbilt Law Review

The problems of the reciprocal use and enjoyment of property by adjacent landowners have become increasingly pronounced in our time of intense urbanization. Salient has been the problem of noise nuisances which frequently result when adjacent property is devoted to the inconsistent uses of industry and residence ownership. This conflict is often a serious one. The enjoyment by the residence owner of his property may be considerably impaired; the abatement of the noise may be at the price of loss of productivity, considerable expense or of not conducting the business at all.' The resulting situation is one which requires a …

Regulation Of Business-Federal Trade Commission Act-Legality Of Offers Of ''Free Goods" Upon Agreement To Purchase Other Merchandise, Alan Reeve Hunt S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

On June 30, 1948 the Federal Trade Commission issued a complaint against Walter J. Black, Inc., a corporation doing business as the Classics Club and the Detective Book Club. The Commission charged that use by the respondent of the word "free" in its advertising was false, misleading, and deceptive. The alleged deception consisted in the fact that in order to obtain the books designated as "free" the prospective purchaser was required to join respondent's club and thereby obligated himself to purchase at least four books a year from the respondent. The hearing examiner in his initial decision found that respondent's …

Regulation Of Business - Proof Of Seller's Costs In Robinson-Patman Act Buyer Proceedings, Arthur M. Wisehart S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

The purposes of this comment are to analyze the holding of the Court in the Automatic Canteen case and to relate the language of the opinion to the more general problem of defining the extent of buyer responsibility under section 2(f). As a preliminary matter, however, it is necessary to examine the pertinent statutory provisions. Section 2(f) of the Robinson-Patman Act makes it unlawful for buyers in interstate commerce" ... knowingly to induce or receive a · discrimination in price which is prohibited by this section." In other words, it prohibits buyers from knowingly inducing or receiving the benefit of …

Labor Law - Objects Of Union Action - Organization Of Managers Of Retail Chain Stores As Proper Object, John F. Dodge Jr., S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

The owner and operator of retail food stores located throughout the nation brought action to enjoin strike activities by the defendant union, which sought recognition as bargaining agent for managers and clerks in the local stores. Both clerks and store managers had been members of the defendant local unions since 1937, and the latter, acting under certification as bargaining representative for both groups of employees under the National Labor Relations Act, had negotiated contracts with the plaintiff covering managers and clerks continuously since that time. Upon the refusal of the plaintiff to include the store managers in the contract, or …
