Evidence-Judicial Notice By Appellate Courts Of Facts And Foreign Laws, Not Brought To The Attention Of The Trial Court, Hobart Taylor, Jr.
Evidence-Judicial Notice By Appellate Courts Of Facts And Foreign Laws, Not Brought To The Attention Of The Trial Court, Hobart Taylor, Jr.
Michigan Law Review
The general problem to be discussed in this comment is the process and supporting reasons used by appellate courts in their determination of the propriety of taking official cognizance of facts not brought to the attention of the trial court. This necessarily removes that great and complex body of case and statutory law dealing with situations where a court is called upon to take judicial notice of local statutes, municipal ordinances, and other similar matters of law. Also specifically excluded from discussion are the cases where error is alleged because the trial court refused to take notice of a fact …
The American Law Institute's Model Code Of Evidence, Judson F. Falknor
The American Law Institute's Model Code Of Evidence, Judson F. Falknor
Washington Law Review
In planning this necessarily brief statement concerning the Code of Evidence which has been approved by the American Law Institute, I found that I was confronted with a considerable problem of condensation. In the first place, what we have here is a Code, and necessarily the draftsmen have undertaken to cover the entire area of the law of evidence. In the second place, the treatment of many existing rules has been radical in character. And finally, it should be mentioned that a controversy arose between the reporter and his advisers on the one hand, and Mr. Wigmore, chief consultant, on …

Administrative Law-Right Of Persons Aggrieved By Orders To Review By Appellate Courts, Hobart Taylor, Jr.
Administrative Law-Right Of Persons Aggrieved By Orders To Review By Appellate Courts, Hobart Taylor, Jr.
Michigan Law Review
The Milk Control Board issued an order providing in part that where milk or cream was sold in single service paper containers a nonrefundable container charge of one cent be added to the applicable wholesale or retail price. Petitioner, engaged solely in the manufacture of paper containers for the packaging of milk, sought review of the proceedings of the board upon which the order was based. A demurrer based on the ground that petitioner was not a "person aggrieved" was sustained by the superior court and petitioner appealed. Held, a person "interested" or "aggrieved" need not be within the …
Administrative Law - Extent To Which Hearsay Evidence May Constitute Basis For Award By Workmen's Compensation Commission, Mary Jane Morris
Administrative Law - Extent To Which Hearsay Evidence May Constitute Basis For Award By Workmen's Compensation Commission, Mary Jane Morris
Michigan Law Review
Claimant suffered a coronary occlusion and as a result was totally disabled, being unable to speak coherently or to understand what was said to him. The State Industrial Board found that the claimant's total disability was the result of accidental injuries which arose out of and in the course of his employment. An award was made. The claimant was incapable of giving testimony and no witness was produced who saw the accident. The referee who heard the claim admitted hearsay testimony to the effect that claimant complained of a heartburn to fellow employees after having lifted and emptied a boiler …
Future Interests - Taxation - Evidence - Presumption As To The Possibility Of A Woman Bearing Children, Hobart Taylor, Jr.
Future Interests - Taxation - Evidence - Presumption As To The Possibility Of A Woman Bearing Children, Hobart Taylor, Jr.
Michigan Law Review
Testatrix, a resident of Massachusetts, set up a trust of her residuary estate for her two daughters, the principal to be paid to their issue, but if either should die without issue, her share to be paid to certain named charities. On probate, the remainder to charity was held to be void. The income tax law of Massachusetts imposed a three per cent levy on income accumulated for contingent future interests, but exempted from taxation certain interests of nonresidents, including vested remainders not subject to being divested. The daughters, nonresidents, contended that their interests should not be taxed as contingent …
Medical Facts That Can And Cannot Be Proved By X-Ray: Historical Review And Present Possibilities, Samuel W. Donaldson
Medical Facts That Can And Cannot Be Proved By X-Ray: Historical Review And Present Possibilities, Samuel W. Donaldson
Michigan Law Review
As the science of the practice of medicine has progressed, new discoveries have brought out newer methods of diagnosis and treatment. With the discovery of x-rays by Professor Wilhelm Roentgen in 1895, an entirely new field was opened. The growth of this new field of medical radiology has been unusually rapid and of great importance. Radiology embraces the use of x-rays, radium, and other radioactive substances. Roentgenology is a division of radiology in that it is limited to the use of the Roentgen rays or x-rays, and medical roentgenology may be termed as the use of x-rays for the diagnosis …

Scientific Proof And Relations Of Law And Medicine, John E. Tracy
Michigan Law Review
Ever since lawyers first began the practice of employing expert witnesses in cases where there were questions of fact to be determined, involving the existence and extent and the causes of bodily ailments, these experts-physicians, surgeons, anatomists, chemists, pathologists, and roentgenologists-have been generous in their proffering of advice to the practicing attorney as to the matters to which his preparation for trial should be directed, the proper theories to be adopted by him as to recovery or damages and his methods of examining and cross-examining witnesses of this character. The shelves of any large law library will be found to …
Administrative Law - Subpoena Power In Administrative Agencies, Arthur B. Lathrop
Administrative Law - Subpoena Power In Administrative Agencies, Arthur B. Lathrop
Michigan Law Review
The Secretary of Labor, acting under the authority vested in her by the Walsh-Healey Act, instituted an administrative proceeding against the petitioner charging violations of the minimum and overtime payment provisions of a government contract. Upon the petitioner's refusal to furnish certain records believed to be essential in determining jurisdiction, the secretary issued a subpoena duces tecum for their production. Shortly thereafter, this suit was begun in the district court to obtain an enforcement order directing the petitioner to obey the subpoena. The petitioner, contending that the secretary was without jurisdiction to investigate the plants and employees involved, successfully resisted …
What Constitutes A Fair Procedure Before The National Labor Relations Board, Clyde W. Summers
What Constitutes A Fair Procedure Before The National Labor Relations Board, Clyde W. Summers
Michigan Law Review
No administrative body in recent times has received as much criticism, both favorable and unfavorable, as has the National Labor Relations Board in its administration of the National Labor Relations Act. Such a vast amount of material has been written on the procedure before the board that any further discussion would seem superfluous. However, the discussion of the board's procedure has been related more to the wisdom of choice which the board has made in setting up its procedure than to a determination of the line that separates legality from illegality in its determination of cases.
