Re Int'l Moulders Union And Jamaica Mfg (Canada) Ltd, Innis Christie, D Wren, S H. Hartt

Innis Christie Collection

The facts essential to the settlement of this grievance do not appear to be in dispute. Employees of the company are paid an hourly base rate, as set out in the schedule to the collective agreement, plus incentive pay. The incentive system operates. wholly outside the agreement except for references in art. 10 (c), which is quoted below, and upon which this grievance is based. There are several indirect references to the incentive scheme in the "Wage Schedule and Classifications" appended to the agreement. The references in the schedule do no more than testify to the existence of the incentive …

Nonestate Planning, Thomas F. Shaffer

Journal Articles

This article proposes and explains a will form for the young and promising, but presently impecunious, Calvin Knox. He is called a "junior executive" by appliance dealers, and his property is called an "estate" by his flatterers. He is really a middle-class, white-collar worker; and what he really has is a nonestate of children and debts.

This article is intended to stimulate argument. Nobody ever argues about Calvin Knox's nonestate. Nobody ever 'discusses' him in public. Practicing lawyers who can afford to write about "estate planning" pay no attention to him. Bar association panels and slick-paper journals leave him to …

The Proposed Federal Rules Of Appellate Procedure, Sherman L. Cohn

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

After a discussion of the history of uniform procedural rules and the authority of the Supreme Court to promulgate uniform appellate rules, Professor Cohn discusses some of the problems of expense and delay which are found in the appellate system today. In his analysis of the Proposed Uniform Rules of Federal Appellate Procedure, the author gives special emphasis to those areas where the rules constitute a departure from present practice. In addition, several changes are suggested in areas in which the author believes further improvement can be made.

The Law Library And Legal Research, Office Of Research Administration, University Of Michigan

About the Buildings

This issue of the Research News continues a series on the University libraries, which began in 1965 with three consecutive issues on the General Library, the Undergraduate Library, and the Clements Library, respectively. In the present issue, devoted to the Law Library, we will attempt to place the Library in the perspective of the discipline that it serves. To do this, we shall briefly discuss legal research and indicate some of the reasons for its great value. We shall then show, in general, how law libraries serve legal researchers and, in particular, how the University's Law Library is set up …

Logic-Language-Law, Layman E. Allen

Book Chapters

One legal tool which is not machine operated but is helpful in the study of computer technology and its applications to law is symbolic logic. But this tool is also helpful to the attorney who is not at all interested in computers; it will help improve his understanding of the profession's basic tool: the English language.

When examined as a tool useful for lawyers, symbolic logic is perhaps best viewed as a language. It can be regarded as a carefully and precisely constructed language that has been expressly designed for explicit purposes, rather than one that has evolved haphazardly through …

The Problem Of Communications In Meeting The Information Requirements Of The Courts, Layman Allen

Book Chapters

My remarks are addressed to one aspect of the general problem of communication involved in meeting the information requirements of the courts. It transcends merely the court; however, it is a problem throughout the legal decision-making system. The efficiency of t:ourts in processing information is just one part of a larger picture of effective communication within the legal system. Phrased broadly, the question involves discerning the optimum man-machine mix in the processing of information. Nobody can reasonably quarrel with the goal of taking the fullest possible advantage of the benefits of emerging technology, as long as objectives of greater importance …

Buy American, Michael S. Baram

Faculty Scholarship

The role of American technology in the Western Alliance has recently become a much-discussed issue. As should have been apparent long ago, this technology is the basis for America's economic dominance of the Alliance and, therefore, for its military and political dominance as well. This connection between technological and political supremacy has only recently received the public discussion it deserves, largely as a result of the economic hardships facing the British airframe and shipbuilding industries.'

Federal Estate Tax Burden Borne By A Dissenting Widow, Douglas A. Kahn

Articles

Renunciation of her deceased husband's will entitles a widow to a specified percentage of the husband's net estate (or a dower interest) in lieu of any benefits she would otherwise have received under the will. The size of the dissenting widow's share differs among the several states, but the normal range is from one third to one half of her husband's net estate. In some jurisdictions the widow's share is determined, in whole or in part, according to the portion to which she would be entitled if her husband had died intestate, but in these jurisdictions the widow's share generally …

Some Ruminations About Remedies In Consumer-Credit Transactions , Carl Felsenfeld

Faculty Scholarship

The draftsmen of the Uniform Consumer Credit Code (herein- after the Credit Code) have thus far directed most of their time and effort to establishing a permissive pattern within which creditors give and debtors receive credit. Spokesmen for both sides, as well as distinguished neutral parties, have carefully described the terms under which credit may be granted, the rates that may be charged, and many other elements of the credit transaction. These statutory requirements will significantly influence the size and scope of the debtor community and will undoubtedly set the future pattern for consumer-credit transactions. Thus, these permissive, or authorizing, …

Computation Of Future Damages: A View From The Bench, William Burns Lawless

Journal Articles

At the turn of the century the United States Supreme Court held that a common-law action could not be maintained in a court of the United States against a Mexican railroad, incorporated in Colorado, for the wrongful death in Mexico of an American switchman. Mr. Justice Holmes, writing for the majority, said that the American court should refuse to administer a Mexican statutory rule of damages which provided compensation in the form of scheduled, periodic payments instead of the lump-sum award traditional to American jury verdicts.

While the case is of primary interest for students of conflict of laws, it …
