Nineteenth Century Anti-Entrepreneurial Nuisance Injunctions--Avoiding The Chancellor, Paul M. Kurtz
Nineteenth Century Anti-Entrepreneurial Nuisance Injunctions--Avoiding The Chancellor, Paul M. Kurtz
Scholarly Works
This Article will explain how the 19th-century entrepreneur, faced with a hostile rule of strict liability for interference with the use and enjoyment of property, avoided the heavy hand of the chancellor's injunction. Although the term "entrepreneur" describes a diverse group of businessmen--from the mill owner to the early 19th century to the slaughterhouse operator of later in the century--the denominator common to all nuisance action in this period was a developmental use of real property that interfered with the use of neighboring property. An examination of the responses of courts to private nuisance suits between an individual property owner …

Landlord Control Of Tenant Behavior: An Instance Of Private Environmental Legislation, John A. Humbach
Landlord Control Of Tenant Behavior: An Instance Of Private Environmental Legislation, John A. Humbach
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications
The present Article suggests that the problem of incompatible neighboring tenants can be most efficiently and "justly" dealt with by permitting a substantial degree of landlord control over tenant behavior-with the removal of offending tenants, at the landlord's instance, being the most effective sanction of ultimate recourse in the effectuation of such control. For some courts, ceding this power of control to landlords would require a measure of constraint which they may find uncustomary or even distasteful. As institutions charged with doing justice, the courts' instinct to intervene in the norm-creating process is undoubtedly great, even when the parties before …
The Notaire In North America: A Short Study Of The Adaptation Of A Civil Law Institution, Barlow Burke
The Notaire In North America: A Short Study Of The Adaptation Of A Civil Law Institution, Barlow Burke
Articles in Law Reviews & Other Academic Journals
Recent studies of American conveyancing have shown a tendency to compartmentalize the process of land transfer into stages: finding a property, financing its acquisition, proving title to it, and closing the transaction. This certainly helps clarify descriptive studies, but it diverts attention from the deficiencies in the existing process. The stages outlined are too neat and lack a sense of continuity. For example, between the finding and the closing stages lie the drafting and execution of a contract of sale, escrow instructions, a mortgage, and finally a deed. In negotiating the terms of these documents, one of the deficiencies found …
The Change-Mistake Rule And Zoning In Maryland, Barlow Burke
The Change-Mistake Rule And Zoning In Maryland, Barlow Burke
Articles in Law Reviews & Other Academic Journals
INTRODUCTION: Zoning ordinances enacted under state enabling laws and home rule charters of municipalities are customarily entitled to a presumption that they were validly enacted, are within the powers delegated to the locality by the state, and are reasonable in effect. This presumption makes an exercise of the zoning power more easily defensible; one attacking the ordinance must show that it was passed incorrectly, or is beyond the scope of municipal authority, or is unreasonable, capricious or arbitrary in effect. Zoning officials have possessed this initial advantage in any litigation since the landmark decision of Village of Euclid v. Ambler …
Criminal Redistribution Of Stolen Property: The Need For Law Reform, G. Robert Blakey, Michael Goldsmith
Criminal Redistribution Of Stolen Property: The Need For Law Reform, G. Robert Blakey, Michael Goldsmith
Journal Articles
The development of sophisticated fencing systems for the sale of stolen property to consumers has paralleled the industrialization of society. Although crimes against property and attempts to control them have ancient origins, most theft before the Industrial Revolution was committed for immediate consumption by the thieves and their accomplices rather than for redistribution in the market-place. Society's small population, inadequate transportation and communication systems, and technological inability to mass produce identical goods constrained large-scale fencing because there were few buyers and because stolen property could be readily identified. The unprecedented economic and demographic growth in eighteenth-century Europe, however, removed these …
