Constitutional Law - Due Process - Limits On Investigative Power Of State Legislative Committees, George E. Lohr
Constitutional Law - Due Process - Limits On Investigative Power Of State Legislative Committees, George E. Lohr
Michigan Law Review
Defendant appeared before the New Hampshire attorney general, who was authorized by statute to investigate violations of the state subversive activities law and to determine if subversive persons, as defined therein, were present within the state. Defendant refused to answer certain questions about the contents of a university class lecture delivered by him and about his knowledge of other persons' activities in the Progressive Party, contending that such questions infringed an area protected by the First Amendment. The state superior court conceded the infringement of defendant's rights, but found this to be justified by state interest in self-protection, and convicted …

Federal Procedure - Trial Practice - Not Reversible Error For Trial Judge To Summon Jury Sua Sponte After Waiver, Thomas A. Dieterich
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff instituted this action for breach of contract and defendant counterclaimed. Neither party demanded a jury trial during the period in which it was claimable as of right. Subsequently defendant moved for a jury trial. The motion was denied and was never renewed. Seven months later, on the eve of the trial, the court issued an order sua sponte for a jury trial. Plaintiff's objection was overruled. The jury awarded damages to plaintiff in the same amount as the conceded counterclaim. On appeal, held, affirmed, one judge dissenting. Although the trial judge's action in calling a jury on his …

A Supplement To "Constitutionality Of Marketable Title Acts"-1951-1957, Ralph W. Aigler
Michigan Law Review
An article bearing the title, "Constitutionality of Marketable Title Acts," was published in December 1951. It was there pointed out that such legislation, of which the Michigan act is an example, should be found to be within constitutional limits. It was recognized, however, that direct authority was scarce and that cases that might be deemed pertinent were conflicting.

Constitutional Law - Courts-Martial - Power Of Congress To Provide For Military Jurisdiction Over Civilian Dependents, Gerald M. Smith
Constitutional Law - Courts-Martial - Power Of Congress To Provide For Military Jurisdiction Over Civilian Dependents, Gerald M. Smith
Michigan Law Review
Defendants, civilian wives of servicemen living overseas, were tried and convicted of murder by military court-martial under article 118 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice. Their trials took place in the countries where they were living with their husbands. Defendants brought petitions for a writ of habeas corpus challenging the constitutionality of article 2(11) of the Uniform Code authorizing their trials by court-martial. Initially the United States Supreme Court rejected this contention. On rehearing, held, reversed, two justices dissenting. The guarantee of the right to jury trial contained in article 3, section 2, and the guarantees of the …

Full Faith And Credit To Judgments And Public Acts, Kurt H. Nadelmann
Full Faith And Credit To Judgments And Public Acts, Kurt H. Nadelmann
Michigan Law Review
Interest here is concentrated on full faith and credit for public acts. But what led to insertion of the command respecting public acts cannot be divorced historically from the study of the command of full faith for judgments. The whole field, therefore, has been included in the reexamination. Clarifications obtainable on the "judgments" side, it will be seen, help also on the "public acts" side. On both sides there are historical facts which deserve greater attention than has been hitherto given, and if, as a result, some of the myths surrounding the' Lawyers Clause are exploded, the rethinking may have …

Constitutional Law - Certiorari - Integrity Of The Rule Of Four, Robert L. Knauss S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
In four recent cases involving the Federal Employers Liability Act the Supreme Court of the United States, after granting certiorari, reviewed the facts of the cases to determine if there was sufficient evidence to allow the cases to be heard by a jury. Justice Frankfurter in a lengthy dissenting opinion refused to hear these cases on their merits. He would have dismissed them on the ground that certiorari was improvidently granted, although no new evidence warranted this conclusion. Justice Frankfurter maintained that any justice has a right to refuse to hear a case after certiorari has been granted, and that …

Constitutional Law - Due Process - Right Of Witness To Counsel Before State Investigatory Officer, William G. Mateer S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
After a fire occurred on the premises of appellants' corporation, the state fire marshal started an investigation into the causes of the fire, and subpoenaed appellants to appear as witnesses. Ohio law provides that such investigations may be conducted in private and gives the fire marshal power to punish summarily witnesses who refuse to testify. Appellants refused to testify without the presence of their counsel, who had accompanied them to the place of questioning. Appellants were thereafter committed to the county jail by the deputy fire marshal who conducted the investigation. On appeal from denial of a writ of habeas …

Constitutional Law - Right To A Trial By Jury-Power Of Trial Court To Use Additur, Robert W. Steele S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
The plaintiff brought suit against two defendants, claiming $56,000 for personal injuries suffered in an accident. Upon return of a jury verdict for the plaintiff in the amount of $3,000, the plaintiff moved for a new trial on the issue of damages.

Plaintiff appealed on the ground that the use of an additur constituted an infringement of his constitutional guarantee of a jury trial. Held/em>, affirmed. Conditioning the denial of a new trial upon the defendant's consent …

Constitutional Law -- 1957 Tennessee Survey, Paul H. Sanders
Vanderbilt Law Review
During the survey period the Tennessee Supreme Court had occasion to deal with a major, though unsuccessful, attack upon the constitutionality of the state legislation providing for the apportionment of Senators and Representatives in the General Assembly. There were also important questions relating to constitutional limitations on the police power in the regulation of insurance and of the number and capacity of gasoline storage tanks by a municipality.
The separation between legislative, executive and judicial powers is made express in the Tennessee Constitution.' In addition, each of these coordinate branches of government is expressly enjoined from performing the functions of …
