A Partnership as a Farmer in Bankruptcy - After much uncertainty and difference of opinion among the courts as to the position of Partnerships under the Bankruptcy Act certain phases of the problem were set at rest by the Supreme Court in Francis v. McNeal.

It is proposed in this paper to discuss in detail the provisions of the proposed Michigan teachers' pension law in the light of the general principles, set forth in the former paper, with reference to specific constitutional provisions, and the decisions of the courts upon-the validity of pensions for firemen and policemen which are similar in many respects to teachers' pension systems, together with such decisions as have been made concerning the constitutionality of …

The Renvoi Theory Repudiated as a Test for Determining the Negotiability of a Note - A recent case decided by the Supreme Court of Oklahoma (Bell v. Riggs, 127 Pac. 427) involving, among others, a question as to what law governs the negotiability of a note made in one State and payable in another, though of little intrinsic value so far as that point is concerned, is of some interest because the attorney for the holder of the note made a curious attempt to adapt the renvoi theory to his case. The term renvoi is used as a convenient descriptive …

The Economic And Legal Basis Of Compulsory Industrial Insurance For Workmen I, James Harrington Boyd
Michigan Law Review
It is proposed to present to the readers of the Michigan Law Review, the economic and legal basis for the substitution of a new remedy, namely, compulsory industrial insurance for workingmen, in lieu of the common and statutory liability law remedies, as a means for compensating workmen who are injured in the due course of their employment. In Part I, it will be shown not only that the common (and liability) law remedy in its present form does not furnish compensation of any kind in to exceed 12% of the cases of injuries to employees, and even in those cases …
