Elliott Evans Cheatham, Willis L.M. Reese

Vanderbilt Law Review

Cheatham has made a marked imprint through his teaching and his writing on five areas of the law: international law, property, legal education, the legal profession, and conflict of laws. Of these, the legal profession is probably the field where his influence has been most deeply felt. Indeed, it is largely because of his ground-breaking casebook that the subject figures so prominently today in law school curriculums. Likewise, his Carpentier Lectures of a few years ago on "A Lawyer When Needed" provided the entering wedge into a subject that is of great contemporary significance. What Cheatham has done in the …

Vanderbilt Law Review

After a full career on the faculty of the Columbia Law School,Professor Cheatham has had a new career as a member of the faculty of the Vanderbilt University Law School. During this period, his writing has never ceased, and it is always lively and original.Elliott Cheatham has been one of the great legal scholars of our time. He has also been one of the great persons in law teaching. He has been a great inspiration not only to his students, but also to the law teachers who have tried to follow in his footsteps.

Elliot E. Cheatham, Phillip C. Jessup

Vanderbilt Law Review

A man of great courage and a fighter for principle, he would never surrender, but if conscience and conviction permitted, he would have great pleasure in giving. As one of our other colleagues has suggested to me, Elliott Cheatham's greatness as a teacher' is due to the fact that he is always eager to give. I have witnessed many examples of Elliott's modesty, which should not be mistaken for any wobbly lack of self-confidence. When he pleads that he has limitations which suggest the desirability of seeking someone else for an honor or place of distinction or a juridical contribution, …

Conflict Of Laws -- Constitutionality Of State Statutes Governing Ability Of Nonresident Aliens To Receive Property Under American Wills: Zschernig V. Miller, Richard N. Hale

Vanderbilt Law Review

An excellent illustration of the vertical conflict of laws problem involves the ability of nonresident aliens to receive property under American wills. Traditionally, under the American federal system,the acquisition and transmission of property located within a state has been controlled by state law. Yet article I, section 10 of the United States Constitution imposes strict limitations on a state's power to deal with matters having a bearing on international relations, such matters being within the ambit of the national government. The supremacy of the national government in the general field of foreign affairs has been given continuous recognition by the …
