Separation Of Powers Revisited, Reginald Parker May 1951

Separation Of Powers Revisited, Reginald Parker

Michigan Law Review

Since administrative law is law that governs, and is applied by, the executive branch of government, it is necessarily as old as that branch. As long as executive and judiciary were one and the same and the king at the head of both, all of the law was in fact "administrative" though the term was not used. When, however, out of the amorphous mass of the legal order a fixed body of law courts began to emerge with jurisdiction over the most important legal problems, the term "administrative law," had it been used, would have acquired a specific meaning. Property, …

Governmental Powers, State And National, Under Our Constitutional System, Orie Leon Phillips May 1938

Governmental Powers, State And National, Under Our Constitutional System, Orie Leon Phillips

Michigan Law Review

We are living in a day when democracy is receding and the totalitarian state is advancing on many fronts. Three great nations have accepted as their governmental system authoritarian collectivism. Under the totalitarian systems, the right of the individual to think freely, to engage in free enterprise, to enjoy personal liberty, and to work out his own destiny is taken away. Instead, there is a regimentation of human beings, where everyone's thought, everyone's time, everyone's labor, and at last everyone's life, are at the disposal of a supreme authority. Of course, such a system means the vesting of tremendous powers …

Law Departments And Law Officers In American Governments, John A. Fairlie Apr 1938

Law Departments And Law Officers In American Governments, John A. Fairlie

Michigan Law Review

On all levels of government, national, state and local, the need for the services of professional lawyers has been recognized. In addition to the judges of the higher courts, there are other law officers, whose function it is to give legal advice and assistance to the various executive administrative agencies, and to act as attorneys for the government and its officials in proceedings before the judicial courts in the enforcement of criminal laws and in other cases where the government or its officials are parties or are concerned with the legal problems involved. Little attention has been given to the …

The Emergency Railroad Transportation Act, 1933, Edwin C. Goddard Jun 1933

The Emergency Railroad Transportation Act, 1933, Edwin C. Goddard

Michigan Law Review

From Munn v. Illinois to the Emergency Railroad Transportation Act of 1933 has been a long journey traveled by the public and the public utilities, notably the largest public utility, the railroads. In 1876 the very term "public utility" was unknown. The idea that the public could break in on laissez faire and regulate any business was to the persons regulated, and to their lawyers, odious. With them agreed Justices Field, Brewer, Peckham, and many another, who predicted that the public would not long tolerate such interference with business. But prophecy is hazardous, and these prophets were wrong.

Congress And The National Administration, John A. Farlie Jan 1928

Congress And The National Administration, John A. Farlie

Michigan Law Review

Under the Constitution of the United States, Congress is vested with legislative powers; and under the classical doctrine of the separation of powers, it is primarily a law-making organ. A recent writer on government has, however, analyzed its functions under seven heads, as follows: as a constituent assembly, a canvassing board and electoral college, an organ of public opinion, a board of directors, an organ of legislation, an executive council, and a high court of justice. In its capacity as board of directors, he also states that "the whole power of direction, supervision and control of administrative affairs is legally …
