Protection Of Employees Against Abrupt Discharge, G. T. Schwenning
Michigan Law Review
The dismissal compensation law movement is a significant, though relatively new, effort on the part of industrial nations to minimize the hazards of employment uncertainty. It is a development in labor legislation of recent origin designed to stabilize employment contracts by limiting employers' freedom of arbitrary and abrupt discharge. Where such statutes have been enacted, employers are required to give their employees advance notice of the termination of the labor contract or to pay compensation in lieu of notice. The length of the time of notice ranges in different countries from five days to two years, while the discharge compensation …
Civil Pleading In Scotland, Robert Wyness Millar
Civil Pleading In Scotland, Robert Wyness Millar
Michigan Law Review
It might be expected that, after the lodging of the answers and pleas in law on the part of the defender, a brief period would now be allowed the pursuer to put in a reply to any affirmative allegations contained in the defender's pleading. But this is not the case, at least in the sense of his lodging a separate pleading. He is given opportunity to reply, but by way of revising his condescendence. Basically, the principle is the same as that obtaining in our classic chancery practice, whereby the complainant amended his bill in order to include any special …

Said Lord Chancellor Loreburn, in his answers to the questions addressed to him by Mr. Justice Lurton, preparatory to the drafting of the Federal Equity Rules of 1912: "It may be worth while for Mr. Justice Lurton and his coadjutors to consider the Scottish method of pleading which, in my opinion, is the best." This can only mean that the Lord Chancellor regarded the method in question as superior to that obtaining under the English Rules - certainly a high testimonial coming from such a quarter. Whether the opinion is justified or not is a question which may be left …

Old English Local Courts And The Movement For Their Reform, Arthur Lyon Cross
Old English Local Courts And The Movement For Their Reform, Arthur Lyon Cross
Michigan Law Review
The first Reform Bill of 1832 was at once a symptom and a further cause of momentous changes in English institutions, political and legal, to say nothing of social and ecclesiastical. Many of these were brought about as the result of patient and competent investigations of royal commissions which, though not unknown before the third decade of the nineteenth century, were active to an extent hitherto unheard of during that notable epoch of reform. While a few men of law were among the forward spirits, the bulk of the advance guard were laymen. As a rule judges, barristers and attorneys …
