The Ascendancy Of Legislation: Legal Problem Solving In Our Time, Frank P. Grad Jun 1985

The Ascendancy Of Legislation: Legal Problem Solving In Our Time, Frank P. Grad

Dalhousie Law Journal

Law making in our time depends on legislation, and our primary reliance on statutory law is being increasingly recognized, even though, as James Williard Hurst recently put it, "Judge-made law is still the darling of legal philosophers."' It has also remained at the misplaced center of much of our legal education.' I hope to trace the movement toward the full acceptance of statutes as a source of law, including brief notes on early twentieth century efforts to salvage the common law through the machinery of law revision commissions and through the Restatements developed by the American Law Institute.

The Cable Communications Policy Act Of 1984: A Balancing Act On The Coaxial Wires, Michael I. Meyerson

All Faculty Scholarship

After three decades of what Chief Justice Burger termed ‘the almost explosive development’ of cable television, Congress updated the Communications Act of 1934 with the Cable Communications Policy Act of 1984. The Act represents the culmination of a ‘decade long effort to update the Communications Act of 1934 . . . and bring our outdated communications laws into the information age.’ The 1984 Cable Act was a complicated piece of legislation, the result of countless compromises and political deals. This Article explains how Congress attempted to balance the competing, and sometimes mutually exclusive, interests of the cable operators, cities, video …

Wills, Trusts And Estates (Annual Survey Of Virginia Law, 1984-85), J. Rodney Johnson

Law Faculty Publications

The 1985 session of the General Assembly passed a number of bills dealing with wills, trusts, and estates, many of which resulted from the continuing law reform efforts of the Virginia Bar Association's Committee on Wills, Trusts and Estates. In addition to this legislation, the Virginia Supreme Court decided six cases during the past year that involved issues of interest to both the general practitioner and the specialist in wills and trusts. This article reviews all of these legislative and judicial developments. In order to facilitate the discussion of numerous code sections, they will be ref erred to in the …
