Washington's Zoning Vested Rights Doctrine, Fredrick D. Huebner
Washington's Zoning Vested Rights Doctrine, Fredrick D. Huebner
Washington Law Review
Part I of this comment reviews the judicial analysis underlying the Washington doctrine, and outlines the elements and scope of the vesting rule. Part II analyzes the Mercer decision and questions whether that decision promotes the purposes of the Washington doctrine in the PUD zoning context. This comment contends that the Mercer court's rule for vesting rights to develop land on the basis of incomplete building permit applications fails to consider important public policy interests. In conclusion, Part III proposes a modified vesting rule that addresses the problems inherent in the Mercer decision.

State And Local Limitations On Ballot Measure Contributions, Michigan Law Review
State And Local Limitations On Ballot Measure Contributions, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
This Note's thesis is that ballot measure limitations unconstitutionally infringe upon the rights of free speech and association. Part I analyzes Buckley and concludes that the CARC court misapplied its distinction between contributions and direct expenditures. Part II tests ballot measure limitations against Buckley's "exacting scrutiny" standard. It identifies the state interests asserted in defense of ballot measure limitations - lessening abuse by narrow interest groups, reducing apathy, and equalizing political expression - and concludes that ballot measure limitations do not permissibly further these governmental interests.
Legitimate Interests In Multistate Problems: As Between State And Federal Law, Lea Brilmayer
Legitimate Interests In Multistate Problems: As Between State And Federal Law, Lea Brilmayer
Michigan Law Review
This Article examines that common ground, analyzing the roles of state policy interests and contacts in defining constitutional limits. It concentrates particularly on one paradoxical aspect of the interaction between federal and state law. While the scope of constitutional limits on application of forum law is necessarily a federal issue, constitutional analysis simultaneously defers in some unspecified way to state policy. This is because federal choice-of-law questions frequently tum on the existence of a state policy interest that legitimizes the application of state law. The resulting interdependence of the federal and state issues would seemingly empower state legislatures and courts …
Beyond Custody: Expanding Collateral Review Of State Convictions, Timothy C. Hester
Beyond Custody: Expanding Collateral Review Of State Convictions, Timothy C. Hester
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
This article advocates extension of collateral review to embrace all parties alleging deprivation of federally guaranteed rights in the state criminal process, regardless of whether the party fulfills the habeas corpus custody requirement. Part I assesses the sufficiency of Supreme Court certiorari jurisdiction to monitor adequately state adjudications of federal constitutional rights, coupled with an evaluation of the technical competency and institutional posture of state courts. Part II examines the significance of the custody limitation on collateral review, both as a substantive element of habeas corpus relief and as a mechanism for funnelling limited judicial resources. Part III presents two …
The Nonprofit Health Care Corporation Reform Act Of 1980, David L. Hollister, Patience A. Drake
The Nonprofit Health Care Corporation Reform Act Of 1980, David L. Hollister, Patience A. Drake
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
In recent years, Blue Cross/Blue Shield has been the subject of considerable controversy. Its critics charge the non-profit, tax-exempt corporation with being unduly secretive, arrogantly unresponsive to consumer interest and not vigorous in its cost containment efforts. These criticisms, along with a variety of other factors, led to the legislative reform I am here to talk to you about this evening.
Workers' Compensation Reform: A Case Study Of The Legislative Process In Michigan, Robert Vanderlaan, Richard K. Studley
Workers' Compensation Reform: A Case Study Of The Legislative Process In Michigan, Robert Vanderlaan, Richard K. Studley
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
At a 1979 workers' compensation seminar for the Michigan Legislature, University of Michigan law professor Marcus Plant closed by noting that "[m]y intent was to sketch in broad strokes the background of our workers' disability compensation law. It is my firm belief that wise decisions as to where we should go cannot be made unless we know how we got where we are. " I share Professor Plant's belief. I feel strongly that wise public policy decisions about where we should go next in the reform process depend substantially on a good understanding of how we got where we are …

California Expansion Of First Amendment Does Not Infringe On Federally Protected Rights, Mark Emanuel
California Expansion Of First Amendment Does Not Infringe On Federally Protected Rights, Mark Emanuel
Mercer Law Review
In Prune Yard Shopping Center v. Robins, the United States Supreme Court held that the California Constitution, which protects speech and petitioning in private shopping centers, does not violate the shopping center owner's rights under the federal constitution. The shopping center owner argued unsuccessfully that the state constitution violated federally protected property rights under the fifth and fourteenth amendments and free speech rights under the first and fourteenth amendments.

Conversion Condominium Development: An Issue Of Tenants' Rights, Amy R. Goldstein
Conversion Condominium Development: An Issue Of Tenants' Rights, Amy R. Goldstein
Cleveland State Law Review
It is against the backdrop of burgeoning condominium conversion activity, rental housing shortages and diverse legislative controls that this Note will examine the issue of tenant protection as it has developed in Ohio. The consideration given to conversion condominium development in the 1978 amendments to the Ohio Condominium Property Act creates minimal, if any, protection for either tenants or the rental housing market. This Note will critically examine the pertinent provision of the Ohio Act, outline the municipal tenant protection laws which have subsequently been enacted in metropolitan Cleveland communities and consider the issue of whether these local conversion regulations …
