School Finance Litigation—The Styles Of Judicial Intervention, William R. Andersen Dec 1979

School Finance Litigation—The Styles Of Judicial Intervention, William R. Andersen

Washington Law Review

Current debates about the legality of public school funding systems recognize that existing systems combine state, local, and federal revenue sources. The exact nature of the governmental partnership involved is seldom specified, however, and the result is that the institutional relationships are not clearly seen. This failure of perception leads to difficulties when a court is asked to determine the constitutionality of such systems. Two recent state school finance opinions will be analyzed here to compare two different styles of judicial intervention. This article does not deal with all school finance litigation nor with all styles of judicial involvement in …


Federal Estate Tax—Valuation Of A Deceased Spouse's Interest In Community Owned Stock—Estate Of Lee V. Commissioner, 69 T.C. 860 (1978), Lisa S. Frye Dec 1979

Federal Estate Tax—Valuation Of A Deceased Spouse's Interest In Community Owned Stock—Estate Of Lee V. Commissioner, 69 T.C. 860 (1978), Lisa S. Frye

Washington Law Review

This note questions the propriety of allowing discounts to reflect lack of control where spouses enjoyed joint control over undivided interests in a majority block of shares. The issue is examined in light of existing case law and by reference to Washington community property law and federal estate taxation policies. The note concludes that, although Lee is not contrary to any explicit provision in the Internal Revenue Code, discounting a deceased spouse's share of a community owned majority block neither accurately reflects the degree of control its owners enjoyed nor effectively taxes wealth transfers at death.


The Failure Of Situation-Oriented Professional Rules To Guide Conduct: Conflicting Responsibilities Of The Criminal Defense Attorney Whose Client Commits Or Intends To Commit Perjury, Joni Hammersla Ostergaard Dec 1979

The Failure Of Situation-Oriented Professional Rules To Guide Conduct: Conflicting Responsibilities Of The Criminal Defense Attorney Whose Client Commits Or Intends To Commit Perjury, Joni Hammersla Ostergaard

Washington Law Review

The legal profession has long promulgated rules in an effort to guide attorneys toward appropriate ethical behavior. By formulating such rules and by enforcing them through professional discipline, the profession has undertaken the admirable task of policing its own members. The past decade has seen a proliferation of different standards for attorney conduct, in part because of common law developments in the areas of legal malpractice and ineffective assistance of counsel. In addition, the bar has contributed to the proliferation of conduct rules by establishing standing committees that have promulgated advisory ethical standards in certain specialized fields. Despite the increasing …


Respective Roles Of Senate And President In The Making And Abrogation Of Treaties—The Original Intent Of The Framers Of The Constitution Historically Examined, Arthur Bestor Dec 1979

Respective Roles Of Senate And President In The Making And Abrogation Of Treaties—The Original Intent Of The Framers Of The Constitution Historically Examined, Arthur Bestor

Washington Law Review

The first part of the present article examines the specific question of the placement in the constitutional system of the power to terminate a treaty originally ratified by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, two-thirds of the members present concurring. The power of terminating a treaty is, of course, only a particular segment or subdivision of the far more inclusive power of determining the foreign policy of the Nation. Accordingly, after considering the evidence bearing directly upon the narrow question of treaty abrogation, the present article turns to the larger question of the relationship the framers intended …


The Law Of Medical Malpractice In West Virginia, Michael J. Farrell Dec 1979

The Law Of Medical Malpractice In West Virginia, Michael J. Farrell

West Virginia Law Review

The preparation and trial of a medical malpractice case is a trial lawyer's delight. The trial arena presents a unique opportunity for the lawyer, physician, patient, and jury to explore the intricacies of a surgical procedure, the maze of a diagnostic puzzle, and the mystery of malpractice causation. The physician is subjected to intense scrutiny by professional malpractice witnesses; he is compelled to justify every note in his record and every omission in his thought process. The lawyer undertakes the herculean task of learning anatomy, physiology, and the specific medical discipline of the defendant. It is in this context that …
