Rules Of Evidence -- Substantive Or Procedural?, Edmund M. Morgan
Vanderbilt Law Review
It hardly needs stating that the definition of a legal word or term depends upon the purpose for which it is to be defined. If in framing a generalization designed to state a rule or make a discrimination applicable in a specific topic or field of the law, the courts use specified terms, it by no means follows that they intend those terms to be understood in the same sense in generalizations dealing with problems in another topic or field. The words, substance or substantive and procedure or procedural, have been used most frequently in three separate situations: (1) in …

Patents - Licensing - Legality Of Grant-Back Clauses, Eric E. Bergsten S.Ed.
Patents - Licensing - Legality Of Grant-Back Clauses, Eric E. Bergsten S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
There is no authoritative definition of the term "patent grant-back." It has been defined as a clause in a patent license which provides "for license or assignment to the licensor of any improvement patented by the licensee in the products or processes of the licensed patent." In litigated cases grant-back clauses usually appear either in basic patent licenses or in licenses of the products or processes of an industry which the licensor dominates through control of a multitude of overlapping patents.
Compulsory Joinder Of Parties In Civil Actions, John W. Reed
Compulsory Joinder Of Parties In Civil Actions, John W. Reed
Michigan Law Review
Compulsory joinder cases involving interests in land display one peculiar and important characteristic: there is almost never any need in the state courts to wrestle with the question of whether a person is indispensable as distinguished from necessary. One hastens to add that this attribute of land cases appears to have gone largely unnoticed, but it exists none the less. It arises out of the fact that in a suit involving real property it is never impossible for the court to obtain jurisdiction over all persons interested therein to an extent which will enable the court to adjudicate controversies over …
Jury Instructions On Tax Exemption In Personal Injury Cases, Edwin Knachel
Jury Instructions On Tax Exemption In Personal Injury Cases, Edwin Knachel
Cleveland State Law Review
The practical aspects of instructing a jury that the amount of its verdict in a personal injury case is exempt from federal income taxation, of course, relate to the trend of the times. Jury verdicts in personal injury cases throughout the United States have been increasing in amount due to the booming economy of our times and the inflation of the dollar.
Prepare Your Plaintiff For Direct Testimony, A.H. Dudnik
Prepare Your Plaintiff For Direct Testimony, A.H. Dudnik
Cleveland State Law Review
The purpose here is to project to the reader an appreciation of the vital importance of proper preparation of the plaintiff for trial. What is sought to be suggested is a "technique" which is adaptable to the abilities of every practitioner of law, and one which quite probably will be more instrumental in the successful culmination of his lawsuit than any other single factor in that lawsuit.
Tax Aspects Of Jury Valuation Of Future Earnings, John J. Kennett
Tax Aspects Of Jury Valuation Of Future Earnings, John J. Kennett
Cleveland State Law Review
Whether or not a jury should be instructed, in a personal injury case, that its verdict is exempt from federal income taxation, has been much discussed recently. A most practical element in this problem is the difference between "gross pay" and "take-home pay" in computing the present value of future earnings, when estimating damages. The real question presented by the topic concerns impairment, or deprivation, of future earning capacity. Some of the early English cases which I shall mention considered earnings lost between the time of injury and the time of trial, in addition to the impairment of future earning …
What Is This Thing Called Hearsay?, John W. Reed
What Is This Thing Called Hearsay?, John W. Reed
Articles
This article is based on an address delivered at the 1956 Advocacy Institute at the University of Michigan. A re-examination of elementary principles, the discussion proceeds on the express assumption that much of the uncertainty and confusion in usa of the hearsay rule is unnecessary because it is due to failure to recall and employ these principles.
Compulsory Joinder Of Parties In Civil Actions, John W. Reed
Compulsory Joinder Of Parties In Civil Actions, John W. Reed
Articles
The plaintiff in a civil cause ordinarily is permitted to select the persons with whom he will litigate. The initial designation of parties to an action is made by the plaintiff, and if he chooses to sue B and not A,' that is ordinarily of no concern to B or to A or to the court. So also where the plaintiff without A as co-plaintiff sues B. Not always, however, is the plaintiff permitted unfettered choice in naming the parties to his lawsuit. On the one hand there are persons whose relationship to the situation in litigation is outside the …
Appeasement Of Tort Claimants, S. Burns Weston
Appeasement Of Tort Claimants, S. Burns Weston
Cleveland State Law Review
Justice does not always mean that a case should be tried. By the same token, justice does not always mean that every case should be settled without trial. One of our difficulties is that too often there is more interest in the expedient settlement of differences between litigants than in a judicial determination of rights according to principles of law.
