Adequacy Of Notice—Due Process, George O'Dea
Adequacy Of Notice—Due Process, George O'Dea
Washington Law Review
The purpose of this comment is to survey some of the Washington statutes and case authorities which involve notice, and to discuss them in reference to a number of recent United States Supreme Court decisions involving procedural due process considerations. It is believed that a broadened scope and meaning have been attached to "notice," as a requirement of procedural due process. This survey has been confined to the areas categorized as proceedings in rem, but it is not exhaustive of them.

Privity; Property Damage; And Personal Injuries . . . A Re-Appraisal, Malcolm L. Edwards
Privity; Property Damage; And Personal Injuries . . . A Re-Appraisal, Malcolm L. Edwards
Washington Law Review
The responsibility of a vendor of personal property to persons other than his immediate vendee has troubled courts throughout our legal history. The primary purpose of this comment is to analyze this liability for personal injuries or property damage in an action for breach of warranty. The inquiry is strictly limited to those obligations which arise incidentally to a sale or contract to sell personal property. It does not extend to sales of realty or to those transactions which are not sales, such as service contracts and contracts of bailment. The discussion is further limited to the vendor's liability for …

Legal Significance Of "Capital Stock", J. Gordon Gose
Legal Significance Of "Capital Stock", J. Gordon Gose
Washington Law Review
The purpose of this article is to clarify, if possible, these different meanings. In essence, it will be shown that the first meaning, that is, "capital stock" in the sense of "shares", while possibly technically inaccurate is practically unimportant; second, that the concept of "capital stock" as "property" or as a "trust fund" for creditors is, if given a literal meaning, most inaccurate, confusing and unnecessary; and third, that the concept of "capital stock" as an "amount", is the only usage which is useful and correct under the present Washington statute.
Free Speech, Due Process—And Contempt, Gordon L. Walgren
Free Speech, Due Process—And Contempt, Gordon L. Walgren
Washington Law Review
The power of a court to punish summarily for contempt has been likened to be "the nearest [thing] akin to despotic power of any power existing under our form of government." On the other hand, it has been praised as an inherent necessity if the courts are to exercise their functions properly. The balancing of these two considerations has perplexed the courts which have dealt with the contempt cases as they have come up through the years; that is, whether to limit the power, thereby possibly sacrificing judicial decorum and standing, or to allow it to remain unlimited as an …
Washington Timber Deeds And Contracts, Ralph W. Johnson
Washington Timber Deeds And Contracts, Ralph W. Johnson
Washington Law Review
The law of Washington concerning the interests conveyed by timber deeds and contracts is foggy. Many vital questions are still totally unanswered, or have been left in confusion, by the cases in point. The principal area of doubt revolves around the question of whether standing timber, which has been sold separately from the land on which it stands, is realty or personalty. The answer is vital for many reasons. It determines whether a husband has power as manager of the community to convey community-owned timber without his wife's signature, which statute of frauds applies to a timber transaction, which recording …
Say It Safely, Legal Limits In Journalism And Broadcasting, By Paul P. Ashley (1956), Thomas J. Brennan
Say It Safely, Legal Limits In Journalism And Broadcasting, By Paul P. Ashley (1956), Thomas J. Brennan
Washington Law Review
Mr. Ashley's book is a revision of his earlier volume, Essentials of Libel, published in 1948. It is a small book in which the author, a member of the Seattle Bar experienced in newspaper law, has attempted to provide the journalist and broadcaster with a handy check-list of the danger spots confronting them through the law of the press. It is, in the words of the author, a "Stop, Look and Listen handbook." Mr. Ashley has accomplished his purpose quite successfully.
