Tenant's Attorney: Evaluation Of Impact, Ronald D. Glotta Dec 1968

Tenant's Attorney: Evaluation Of Impact, Ronald D. Glotta

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

The natural question raised by the passage of "Tenant Rights" legislation is whether the new law helps or hinders the practicing attorney representing tenants. In analyzing the package of Tenant Rights Bills enacted in Michigan in 1968 this article will focus on three questions: 1) whether such legislation raises false hopes in being heralded as a major declaration of rights and an effort to solve the problem of housing shortage; 2) whether such legislation actually further oppresses tenants, especially in their exercise of the one effective instrument in their power: collective action; and 3) whether such legislation significantly changes the …

Elliott E. Cheatham: His Contributions To A Developing Sense Of Professional Responsibility, Robert E. Mathews Dec 1968

Elliott E. Cheatham: His Contributions To A Developing Sense Of Professional Responsibility, Robert E. Mathews

Vanderbilt Law Review

It may not, after all, be difficult to be a nunc pro tunc prophet, but it takes real imagination to think of it. Hindsight is quite another matter; all of us are constantly explaining how a better decision years ago would have made for a happier world today. But to think in 1947 of assuming oneself to have been prophesying in 1897 as to what would be the state of affairs fifty years thence reveals an imaginative gift of some magnitude. Not only does it offer a sure-fire guaranty of accuracy of prediction, but also it dramatizes the fallibility of …

Group Legal Services For Trade Associations, Richard D. Copaken Apr 1968

Group Legal Services For Trade Associations, Richard D. Copaken

Michigan Law Review

This Article will examine the goals of the Canons of Professional Ethics in this trade association context, noting the pre-Button limitations on the representation of members of such associations, and analyzing the possible impact of the three cases on the development of group legal services in this area. Hopefully, the perspective gained from such an examination may prove useful in the difficult task immediately confronting the legal profession: reformulation of the Canons to bring them into conformity with Button, BRT and UMW while minimizing, on the one hand, the loss of those traditional conceptions which have continuing value and …

Needed: The Social-Scientific Lawyer, Kent M. Weeks Jan 1968

Needed: The Social-Scientific Lawyer, Kent M. Weeks

Cleveland State Law Review

Once confined to academic journals and considered irrelevant to American law, the empirical findings of the behavioral sciences are now the lawyer's tools. The Supreme Court not only accepts empirical data of the social scientists in briefs, but implicitly seeks such data in order to enable the court to make decisions.


Processing A Workmen's Compensation Case In Ohio, James L. Young Jan 1968

Processing A Workmen's Compensation Case In Ohio, James L. Young

Cleveland State Law Review

The Workmen's Compensation system, which has been a part of Ohio law since May 31, 1911, represents a sharp departure in concept from the earlier methods of redressing work injuries. Under Workmen's,Compensation, neither the negligence of the employer nor that of, the employee plays any part in the determination of the employee's entitlement to the stated benefits. It is the fact of injury sustained in the course of and arising out of employment which is critical.

Opinions Of Counsel: Responsibilities And Liabilities, Gaspare A. Corso Jr.

I have surveyed the views of lawyers and laymen in an effort to ascertain: what lawyers intend their opinion letters to be, what clients expect when they request opinion letters, and what is expected by various governmental agencies from lawyers representing clients before such agencies.

The Law, The Lawyers, And The Writers, L. Neille Shoemaker Jan 1968

The Law, The Lawyers, And The Writers, L. Neille Shoemaker

Cleveland State Law Review

The great writers have one thing in common-they castigate the human race, including themselves, the frailties of mankind, and his noble institutions. Law and the lawyers have suffered at the hands of the writers. The doctors have suffered even more. Most rulers, if they lived long enough, have been the subject of satire, caricatures, exposure, or castigation. The church and churchmen have also suffered. The principal subject matter of satire over the centuries has been the Church. ... Because of this general emphasis on soiled humanity, the legal profession need not feel alone as it finds itself the subject matter …


Fair And Reasonable Attorney Fees, Jack Griesmar Jan 1968

Fair And Reasonable Attorney Fees, Jack Griesmar

Cleveland State Law Review

The beginning of each attorney and client relationship places the attorney in a position of having to determine the worth of his service for the particular work required of him, in order that he may do the "job" for this particular client. The attorney has invested a great deal of time and expense in developing his skills in the area of the law. He is given the right to charge for the service which he can render by the state or states in which he is licensed to practice his trade. The question then presents itself: What is a fair …
