Federal Courts - Appeal And Error - Does A Statute Which Authorizes An Interlocutory Appeal Require Such Appeal?, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

A bill seeking an injunction and an accounting was filed in a United States district court for alleged infringement by defendant of plaintiff's rights in the words of a song. Defendant's appeal from a decree enjoining further use of the song and directing an accounting for profits was denied, because the appeal had been taken more than thirty days after its entry and so the circuit court of appeals was without jurisdiction. The case proceeded to an accounting in the district court, and a final decree was entered from which defendant appealed again to the circuit court. Held, the …

Circuit Courts And The Nisi Prius System: The Making Of An Appellate Court, William Wirt Blume

Michigan Law Review

Judicial systems organized under the influence of the English tradition have exhibited a tendency to pass through four stages of development. (1) In the first stage the highest court (not taking into consideration legislative bodies) has final appellate jurisdiction and a superior original jurisdiction, civil and criminal. The court is composed of three or more judges who sit in bank for the trial of cases. The judges may sit at a central place or go on circuit throughout the territory. (2) In the second stage the highest court has both original and appellate jurisdiction but does not undertake to try …

Appeal And Error - Harmless And Prejudicial Error, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

In the trial of defendant for embezzlement, the prosecutor's opening address to the jury included a hearsay statement, regarding a tacit admission by defendant, tending to establish his guilt. Subsequently in the trial such hearsay statement was not allowed in evidence and the defendant now claims on appeal from conviction that the opening statement was prejudicial and thus he is entitled to a new trial. Held, that the statute governing reversals by an appellate court for prejudicial errors did not apply; and that a new trial follows as a matter of course because of a deprivation of the constitutional …

Parties - Representative Suits - Is Represented Person A Party?, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

The petitioner was a member of the class against whom a decree was rendered in a class suit. The petitioner was not named as a party and had no actual notice of the proceedings although notice was published according to court rules. After the time for appeal had expired, petitioner filed a petition to reopen the decree, under the terms of a statute which gave this right to any defendant against whom a court had rendered a decree without personal service. The petition was dismissed and the petitioner appealed. Held, order affirmed because the petitioner was not a party …

Contempt - Constitutional Law - Pardons - Power Of A Governor To Pardon For Contempt, W. Wallace Kent

Michigan Law Review

Dolan and Quinn were indicted for crime, and while awaiting trial were cited for contempt because of alleged attempts to influence members of the jury panel who might be drawn to sit on the jury in the trials of Dolan and Quinn. They were convicted of contempt and committed to jail, from which they petitioned the governor for pardon. The governor and his council adopted an order requiring the opinion of the justices of the Supreme Judicial Court on the question whether the governor had power to pardon such a contempt. Held, these contempts were criminal in their nature …

Appeal And Error - Reviewability Of An Order Granting A New Trial, Robert M. Warren

Michigan Law Review

When a trial court sets aside a verdict and grants a new trial, the order may or may not be reviewable depending on the jurisdiction. In some jurisdictions which permit a review, the aggrieved party must save an exception to the order and assign this ruling as error when an appeal is ultimately taken from a subsequent appealable decision. In other jurisdictions, he may take an appeal directly from the order.

This comment will discuss (1) the common-law practice which permitted no review of an order granting a new trial; (2) the practice allowing the aggrieved party to save an …
