The Emergence Of A General Reformation Doctrine For Wills, Lawrence W. Waggoner, John H. Langbein
Law Quadrangle (formerly Law Quad Notes)
Although it has been axiomatic that our courts do not entertain suits to reform wills on the ground of mistake, appellate courts in New York, Michigan, New Jersey, and California have decided cases within the last several years that may presage the abandonment of the ancient "no-reformation" rule. (In re Snide, 52 N.Y.2d 193, 418 N.E.2d 656, 437 N.Y.S.2d 63 (1981); Estate of Kremlick, 331 N.W.2d 228 (Mich. 1983); Engle v. Siegel, 74 N.J. 287, 377 A.2d 892 (1977); and Estate of Taff, 63 Cal. App. 3d 319, 133 Cal.Rptr. 737 (1976).)
The new cases do not purport to make …

It is a privilege for me to write a few words about my friend and colleague, Professor Igor Kavass. It has been the good fortune of the Vanderbilt Law School to have this ingenious and engaging man's high competence over the last decade, and it has been my good fortune as Dean and a fellow professor to know and cherish him as a colleague.
While his classroom teaching, committee service, and collegiality are valued highly by this institution, Professor Kavass' most enduring contribution to the Law School has been his accomplishments as the Law Librarian. In the course of ten …

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
The Swiss Institute of Comparative Law seated at Lausanne was established by the federal statute of October 6, 1978.

(1) to supply federal agencies and the federal administration with material and studies that may be needed for decisions concerning legislation and international treaties; (2) to contribute towards international efforts at the harmonization and unification of law; (3) to provide information and expert opinions …

Legal Research In The Federal Republic Of Germany: A Concise Presentation Of Basic Publications, Ralph Lansky

In addition, a few other publications are briefly discussed. This Article addresses the use of selective legal materials and as a result is very basic. Its objective is to introduce the novice to German legal literature.
Most of the books concern the law of the Federal Republic of Germany. A few that are published in that country cover comparative …
United States Research Of The Law Of The Communist-Ruled States Of Europe, Ivan Sipkov
United States Research Of The Law Of The Communist-Ruled States Of Europe, Ivan Sipkov
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
The legal system of the Soviet Union, developed after the 1917 October Revolution, was introduced, with some variations, in several European, Asian, and Latin American states during the last years of World War II. These states have been characterized, both officially and unofficially, as "Soviet-type republics," "People's republics," "Socialist republics," and "Communist states." Their legal systems, although patterned after the Soviet Union legal system, developed in different directions. Today, the various legal systems of these republics are clearly distinguishable; however, one common feature is present: the states are ruled by one Communist party to the exclusion of other parties.

Antitrust & Local Government, Search And Seizure, Howard Feller, J. Robert Brame Iii, Ronald J. Bacigal
University of Richmond Law Review
The United States Supreme Court's recent decision in Community Communications Co. v. City of Boulder has been aptly described as "a lightning bolt with potentially thunderous repercussions." City of Boulder basically established that local government activity is not immune from federal antitrust laws unless it is undertaken pursuant to a clearly articulated and affirmatively expressed state policy to replace competition with regulation or monopoly public service.

International Legal Research: An Infinite Paper Chase, Adolf Sprudzs
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
International legal research operates in the contemporary reality of an increasingly interdependent, complex world in which constant change is the order of the day. Not only are the numbers of international actors on the world stage changing (from 51 original members of the United Nations in 1945 to 157 United Nations member-states in 1982), but also changing are the concepts and methods of international law-making, as well as perceptions of the nature and sources of international law. The tremendous growth in the number of new states and international organizations has been accompanied by a corresponding expansion in world trade, international …

Iii. Recent French Extradition Cases, Michigan Journal Of International Law
Michigan Journal of International Law
This section of the appendix contains the first published collection of recent French extradition cases dealing with the application of the political offense exception to terrorists. Because of the selective fashion in which French decisional law is reported, many French extradition cases are never reproduced in any French case reporter. The purpose of this appendix is to provide an English speaking audience with the substance of opinions which are otherwise nearly impossible to obtain. The editors hope that this collection will aid comparative research and contribute to an informed debate on the political offense exception.
