Unemployment Insurance: Good Cause For Leaving Employment, Gerry Davidson
Unemployment Insurance: Good Cause For Leaving Employment, Gerry Davidson
Cleveland State Law Review
The primary objectives behind the enactment of unemployment insurance programs have been enunciated as follows: Unemployment insurance is a program established under Federal and State law for income maintenance during periods of involuntary unemployment due to lack of work, which provides partial compensation for wage loss as a matter of right, with dignity and dispatch, to eligible individuals. It helps to maintain purchasing power and to stabilize the economy. It helps to prevent the dispersal of the employers' trained work force, the sacrifice of skills, and the breakdown of labor standards during temporary unemployment. However, there are certain requirements a …

Collective Bargaining Without Work Stoppage?, Alvin L. Goldman
Collective Bargaining Without Work Stoppage?, Alvin L. Goldman
Law Faculty Scholarly Articles
Legal institutions have provided us with numerous spectator sports. The jury trial and its predecessors, including trial by combat, are obvious examples. In the mid-nineteenth century, arguments before the Supreme Court of the United States occasionally attracted crowds of spectators and captured the front pages of the yellow press. In more recent times, proxy fights have been rumored to provide action for the bookmaking set and televised legislative investigations have won top-viewer ratings. Among the perennial spectator sports provided by our legal institutions over the past half-century or more has been the confrontation of labor and management across the collective …

Contract Interference By Previous Employer, Robert I. Bendis
Contract Interference By Previous Employer, Robert I. Bendis
Cleveland State Law Review
Whether or not Bennett was correct in his allegation and whether or not his former employer was justified in its act were the questions presented to the court in the case of William Bennett v. Storz Broadcasting Company. The answers to these questions turned on the court's interpretation of the following issues: what acts constitute actionable interference; was the contract of employment between the plaintiff and the defendant, and/or the negative covenant contained therein, valid; was the existence of a contract crucial or even necessary for an action to lie; could there be any justification for the defendant's acts; and …
Covered Employment And Compensable Injury Concepts In Tennessee, Robert N. Covington
Covered Employment And Compensable Injury Concepts In Tennessee, Robert N. Covington
Vanderbilt Law Review
This article surveys the existing law of Tennessee applicable to the problems of determining what is covered employment and what constitutes a compensable injury. The survey indicates no radical differences between the law of Tennessee and that of most American jurisdictions,although there are a few troublesome problems in particular areas, such as the "Act of God" and "positional risk" cases.

Workmen's Compensation -- 1961 Tennessee Survey (Ii), J. Gilmer Bowman, Jr.
Vanderbilt Law Review
Since the workmen's compensation statute was designed to provide benefits for an employee's work-connected injury or death, it necessarily follows that there must have been an employment relationship within the coverage of the statute and that the person or persons claiming the benefits must be within the class entitled to do so. The application of this basic premise, which on its face appears simple enough, was involved in three cases before the Tennessee Supreme Court during the survey period.
Bowling v. Whitley was a workmen's compensation suit brought by an employee against his immediate employer, a subcontractor, as well as …

Public Employees And The Hatch Act, James W. Irwin
Public Employees And The Hatch Act, James W. Irwin
Vanderbilt Law Review
A recent issue of Vanderbilt Law Review featured an article by Dalmas H. Nelson, Instructor in Political Science, University of Nebraska, entitled "Public Employees and the Right to Engage in Political Activity,"' a broadside blast at the Hatch Political Activities Act, section 92 and section 12.3 It is strikingly well written, and reflects exhaustive research as evidenced by voluminous bibliography and quotations. Noteworthy is the citation of many authorities whose views differ from the author's. Notwithstanding admiration for those virtues, it is admitted that the views of the author of the article call to mind a sentiment expressed by the …
An Employer's Unilateral Action -- An Unfair Labor Practice?, J. Gilmer Bowman, Jr.
An Employer's Unilateral Action -- An Unfair Labor Practice?, J. Gilmer Bowman, Jr.
Vanderbilt Law Review
During the Industrial Revolution, the growth of enormous industrial establishments with a correspondingly large number of workers hired to perform increasingly simple tasks manifested the inability of an individual effectively to bargain with an employer concerning wages, hours, and other terms and conditions of the employment relationship. The resulting discontent among workers produced long and bitter, often bloody, outbreaks of economic warfare between employers and employees. In the abstract, freedom of contract was possible still, but as a practical matter employment benefits and obligations were largely established by managerial fiat. It was felt that if employees could effectively unite for …
Some Problems Arising Under The Workmen's Compensation Law Of Tennessee, R. Wayne Estes, Doris A. Dudney
Some Problems Arising Under The Workmen's Compensation Law Of Tennessee, R. Wayne Estes, Doris A. Dudney
Vanderbilt Law Review
Although there are many problems arising under the Workmen's Compensation Laws of Tennessee, it appears that here, as elsewhere, the most difficult questions are those arising out of the interpretation of the phrases "injury by accident," "arising out of," and "in the course of," employment. The present study is therefore limited to a consideration of these three particular problems, and does not purport to be a comprehensive treatment of the entire topic of Workmen's Compensation Law in Tennessee.
Labor Law, Paul H. Sanders
Labor Law, Paul H. Sanders
Vanderbilt Law Review
The body of statutory wording, regulations and court and administrative decisions which clusters around such familiar federal landmarks as the Labor-Management Relations Act ("Taft-Hartley") and the Fair Labor Standards Act ("Wage and Hour") fall far short of constituting the entire subject matter of Labor Law. State statutes or the common law of the state may be much more in point in providing the legal framework for solving a particular problem of the employment relationship, whether viewed individually or collectively. The law which governs the various aspects of the "human factor in industry," or which prescribes the ground rules under which …
