Second Generation State Takeover Legislation: Maryland Takes A New Tack, Michigan Law Review Nov 1984

Second Generation State Takeover Legislation: Maryland Takes A New Tack, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

This Note examines the approach recently adopted by the Maryland legislature in special session one year after the Supreme Court's decision in MITE. Maryland has departed radically from the regulatory approach of first generation statutes; however, this Note argues that the statute has failed to escape the constitutional infirmities of its predecessors. Part I outlines the various mechanisms that regulate acquisition of corporate control: the federal tender offer regulatory mechanism known as the Williams Act, state takeover legislation such as the Illinois statute invalidated in MITE, and the new Maryland statute.

Enterprise Zones As Tools Of Urban Industrial Policy, Benedicte E. F. Mathijsen Jan 1984

Enterprise Zones As Tools Of Urban Industrial Policy, Benedicte E. F. Mathijsen

Michigan Journal of International Law

This note examines the operation of the enterprise zone program in the United Kingdom and considers the program's implications for the United States (U.S.), which also suffers from urban industrial decay and which has now begun studying proposals for an enterprise zone program of its own. The note concludes that, based on the limited data available thus far, the enterprise zone program alone is inadequate to lure industry back to depressed areas. The success of the enterprise zones depends in large measure upon parallel government programs, suggesting that the zones cannot be viewed as potential replacements of existing government aid …

Legislative History In Washington, Arthur C. Wang Jan 1984

Legislative History In Washington, Arthur C. Wang

Seattle University Law Review

This Comment begins with an examination of court usage of Washington State legislative history and illustrates the lack of consistent judicial standards for acceptance of evidence of legislative intent. It then describes a systematic process that lawyers may use to identify and obtain relevant legislative history in Washington, and at the same time, points out defects in the record-keeping system. It concludes with recommendations to the Washington State Legislature to improve the accessibility and usefulness of state legislative history. Adoption of these recommendations would not only aid the legal researcher, but also provide the legislature with a better means to …
