Automobile Accident Costs And Payments: Studies In The Economics Of Injury Reparation, Alfred F. Conard, James N. Morgan, Robert W. Pratt Jr, Charles E. Voltz, Robert L. Bombaugh

Michigan Legal Studies Series

The report is presented as a pool of data which will serve many purposes. First of all, the report furnishes a perspective on the largeness and the smallness of the reparation process, and of its many parts. Second, the report supplies much more specific information than has ever before been available on many points, such as the high or low level of reparation in relation to losses; the number of people who get paid, and those who receive nothing; the levels of legal expense, including attorneys' fees. Third, it will furnish a guide for future research directed to narrower questions, …

Titles To Real Property Acquired Originally And By Transfer Inter Vivos, Ralph W. Aigler Jan 1916

Titles To Real Property Acquired Originally And By Transfer Inter Vivos, Ralph W. Aigler

Books

Many law teachers have felt that Titles should be the basis of the beginning course in Property. Although this volume appears as number three in a series of casebooks covering the law of Property, it is believed that the subject-matter of the volume, with possibly some shifts in order of the topics, is such that it may well be used in that way.


Outlines Of The Law Of Agency, Floyd R. Mechem Jan 1903

Outlines Of The Law Of Agency, Floyd R. Mechem

Books

The subject of Agency belongs to a comparatively recent period in our law … Agency belongs distinctively to a commercial age, and its growth has kept pace with the progress of commercial development. It furnishes the means by which the range of individual and corporate activity is enormously increased. As soon as it is conceded that one man may be represented by another in business transactions, and that he may have as many such representatives as occasion may require, the field of commercial activity is immensely widened. The modern business man may thus be constructively present in many places and …


Outlines Of The Law Of Agency, Floyd R. Mechem Jan 1901

Outlines Of The Law Of Agency, Floyd R. Mechem

Books

The subject of Agency belongs to a comparatively recent period in our law … Agency belongs distinctively to a commercial age, and its growth has kept pace with the progress of commercial activity. It furnishes the means by which the range of individual and corporate activity is enormously increased. One person may thus have many an alter ego. A single brain may direct a hundred hands. The modern business man may be constructively present in many places and carry on diverse and widely separated industries at the same time.

The following pages have been printed to accompany the writer’s …

Commentaries On The Constitution Of The United States : With A Preliminary Review Of The Constitutional History Of The Colonies And States Before The Adoption Of The Constitution, Joseph Story, Thomas M. Cooley Dec 1872

Commentaries On The Constitution Of The United States : With A Preliminary Review Of The Constitutional History Of The Colonies And States Before The Adoption Of The Constitution, Joseph Story, Thomas M. Cooley

Books

From the Editor's Preface: “In preparing for the press a fourth edition of Mr. Justice Story’s Commentaries on the Constitution, it has been thought proper to preserve the original text without alteration or interpolation, and to put in notes all discussions by the editor, as well as all references to subsequent adjudications, public papers, and events, tending to illustrate, support, or qualify the positions assumed in the text. The new amendments, however, seemed to demand treatment in the body of the work, and additional chapters are given for that purpose….”

A Digest Of The Reported Cases Contained In The Michigan Reports, Thomas M. Cooley

Books

"In preparing the following Digest, brevity and convenience of use have been kept in view, rather than perfection of arrangement as a mere work of art; and the object of the compiler will be fully attained if he has succeeded in placing before the Profession of the State a convenient Index to the books of Reports....
