The Reason Of The Common Law, Barbara A. Singer Sep 1983

The Reason Of The Common Law, Barbara A. Singer

University of Miami Law Review

Although the present meaning of reason has been reduced to discrete definitions, precise interpretations did not exist in medieval England. Rather, reason was defined by its role in the adjudicatory process. During the late medieval period, reason came to embody the very essence of the common law as courts recognized that it could be used to prevent procedural rules from infringing upon substantive rights. Relying upon Year Book cases and jurisprudential works, the author describes how the chameleon-like character of reason helped to shape the medieval English common law.

Freedom From Claims And Defenses: A Study In Judicial Activism Under The Uniform Commerical Code, Julian B. Mcdonnell Apr 1983

Freedom From Claims And Defenses: A Study In Judicial Activism Under The Uniform Commerical Code, Julian B. Mcdonnell

Scholarly Works

The suggestion that we might today learn something about the judicial process in such a staid area of private law may seem surprising. After all, has not the Federal Trade Commission "repealed" the holder in due course rule thus tossing negotiable instruments into the dust bin? Have not the remaining technical questions been answered by the "detail and rigid precision" of the Uniform Commercial Code so lamented by Professor Gilmore? Surely, the attentive observer of the role of the courts might conclude that there is nothing left for the judicial policy maker in the field of bills and notes. The …

Iii. Recent French Extradition Cases, Michigan Journal Of International Law Jan 1983

Iii. Recent French Extradition Cases, Michigan Journal Of International Law

Michigan Journal of International Law

This section of the appendix contains the first published collection of recent French extradition cases dealing with the application of the political offense exception to terrorists. Because of the selective fashion in which French decisional law is reported, many French extradition cases are never reproduced in any French case reporter. The purpose of this appendix is to provide an English speaking audience with the substance of opinions which are otherwise nearly impossible to obtain. The editors hope that this collection will aid comparative research and contribute to an informed debate on the political offense exception.


The Reagan Administration's Habeas Corpus Proposals, Larry Yackle Jan 1983

The Reagan Administration's Habeas Corpus Proposals, Larry Yackle

Faculty Scholarship

"Democracy," said Churchill, "means that if the door bell rings in the early hours, it is likely to be the milkman." He might have added that if the caller is not the milkman, but a police officer, Anglo-American democracy contemplates that the writ of habeas corpus will be available to the citizen awakened and dragged off into the darkness. The Great Writ has no substantive content of its own but provides the machinery for putting claims before state and federal courts-for translating substantive principles of liberty into effective law. The writ is process, but more than process. It is the …


Review Of The Law And Process Of Post-Conviction Remedies By Ira P. Robbins, Larry Yackle Jan 1983

Review Of The Law And Process Of Post-Conviction Remedies By Ira P. Robbins, Larry Yackle

Faculty Scholarship

There are days when the availability of the federal writ of habeas corpus as a vehicle for challenging criminal convictions collaterally seems assured. The arrival of Professor Robbins' new casebook is itself strong, affirmative evidence. At last a major publishing house has acknowledged that the great body of habeas corpus statutes, rules, and precedents warrants a full-length, hard-bound casebook for classroom use. Implicitly, surely, the publisher assumes that the postconviction writ is here to stay, that it forms a stable and legitimate part of our jurisprudence. 3 At the same time, some members of the Court, particularly Chief Justice Burger …

Lawyers' Negligence Liability To Non-Clients: A Texas Viewpoint., Brian J. Davis Jan 1983

Lawyers' Negligence Liability To Non-Clients: A Texas Viewpoint., Brian J. Davis

St. Mary's Law Journal

Courts should examine the relationship of a non-client to a negligent lawyer to determine whether a lawyer is liable to a non-client despite lack of privity. In most jurisdictions, attorneys enjoy the privity of contract requirement which limits their duty to exercise reasonable care. As a result, lawyers are normally immune to negligent malpractice actions brought by non-clients. Courts should examine the relationship between the attorney and the non-client to determine whether the requirement of privity is an overly restrictive limit on the lawyer’s scope of duty. These relationships can be classified into three categories. The first category involves plaintiffs …
