E. Blythe Stason- Engineer Of Administrative Law, Ashley Sellers Dec 1960

E. Blythe Stason- Engineer Of Administrative Law, Ashley Sellers

Michigan Law Review

The retirement of E. Blythe Stason from the deanship of the Law School of the University of Michigan affords occasion for testimonials to him and to his work, including preeminently his enormous contribution to the improvement of both federal and state administrative law. Imposing as has been his career as the beloved and successful Dean of that superb school, his eminence among the scholars and craftsmen in administrative law was achieved before he began to occupy the Dean's chair and, God willing, he will long continue to lend his strong, skilled hands to the never-ending task of the perfection of …

E. Blythe Stason, John R. Dethmers Dec 1960

E. Blythe Stason, John R. Dethmers

Michigan Law Review

His extreme modesty and unwillingness to advertise himself or permit others to extol him, his utter unselfishness, and his complete subordination of self and personal interests to those of the University and Law School to which he gave four decades of loyal and devoted service, have combined to leave biographical materials about Dean E. Blythe Stason, except for the most routine accounts, almost nonexistent. Writings by him are amazing in number and scope. Writings about him can scarcely be found. This is not because there is a lack of things to write about him and his many, brilliant accomplishments in …

Mr. Justice Cardozo, William O. Douglas Feb 1960

Mr. Justice Cardozo, William O. Douglas

Michigan Law Review

I never knew Cardozo intimately. I read most of his opinions and all of his books; and I heard him lecture. My personal association with him, however, was limited. When he came to Washington, D. C., he lived in rather lonely isolation. I visited with him occasionally in his apartment where we talked about trivial, as well as philosophical, things. He was a gentle-almost self-effacing-man. Yet he had a mind with as keen a cutting edge as any I ever knew.

Edson R. Sunderland And The Teaching Of Procedure, Charles H. King

Michigan Law Review

Once having arrived at the University of Michigan Law School, Edson Sunderland never left, except on a temporary basis.

Edson R. Sunderland's Contribution To The Reform Of Civil Procedure In Illinois, George Ragland Jr. Nov 1959

Edson R. Sunderland's Contribution To The Reform Of Civil Procedure In Illinois, George Ragland Jr.

Michigan Law Review

Illinois is greatly indebted to Edson R. Sunderland for the effective and enduring contributions which he made to the Civil Practice Act of 1933. That reform was encouraged in no small degree by his speeches and writings. He served as its principal draftsman. His suggestions were of much assistance to the bench and bar of the state in modifying and implementing the original draft so that the measure could be successfully put into operation. Regulation of details of practice by rules of court, which was a primary feature of Professor Sunderland's draft and one which he helped defend against attack, …

Edson Sunderland And The Federal Rules Of Civil Procedure, Charles E. Clark Nov 1959

Edson Sunderland And The Federal Rules Of Civil Procedure, Charles E. Clark

Michigan Law Review

It was my privilege to be associated with Edson Sunderland for many years in a major endeavor for the improvement of law administration, namely, the framing of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. In this association I came to know what a rare spirit he was, how devoted to the public service he had undertaken, and yet withal how gay and charming a friend and co-worker he always showed himself. In the roster of American workers for better justice he stands preeminent for the length, the original character, and the unique persistence of his labors. But this wholehearted idealism in …

More than any other individual, Professor Edson R. Sunderland has had a tremendous impact upon the Michigan law of procedure.

Justice Jackson And The Judicial Function, Paul A. Weidner Feb 1955

Justice Jackson And The Judicial Function, Paul A. Weidner

Michigan Law Review

Much of the pattern of division in the present Supreme Court is traceable to basic differences of opinion regarding the proper role of a judge in the process of constitutional adjudication. Some students of the Court, yielding to the current fashion of reducing even intricate problems to capsule terms, have tried to explain the controversy by classifying the justices as either "liberals" or "conservatives." A second school poses the disagreement largely in terms of judicial "activism" as opposed to judicial "restraint." It is this view that has the greater relevance for the present discussion. C.H. Pritchett, one of the leading …

Justice Murphy And The Welfare Question, Leo Weiss

Michigan Law Review

In 1941, an Italian law professor arrived in the United States to make his home here. Born in Russia during Czarist days, he was educated in Austria, England, and Italy, finally settling there and becoming a citizen. A member of the Italian bar and teacher of law at the Universities of Florence and Rome, he found himself in 1939 unwanted in his adopted homeland. He went to France, where he practiced law until coming to this country. In New York City he joined the Graduate Faculty of the New School for Social Research, remaining in that post for five years, …
