Jurisprudence On Parade, Hessel E. Yntema
Jurisprudence On Parade, Hessel E. Yntema
Michigan Law Review
Jurisprudence is part of the pageant that makes history. This is a truism that, it may be added, obtains irrespective of the view held as to the significance of general legal theory. To some, the constructs of jurisprudence may seem but laggard symbols of more vital facts and trends. The degree of the lag exhibited by the more celebrated of such constructs may suggest to an anthropologically-minded observer, such as Thurman Arnold, that the apparent function of jurisprudence in the present social climate is neither to represent reality nor to control the administration of justice, but rather by the magic …
The Premises Of The Judgment As Res Judicata In Continental And Anglo-American Law, Robert Wyness Millar
The Premises Of The Judgment As Res Judicata In Continental And Anglo-American Law, Robert Wyness Millar
Michigan Law Review
That every judicial judgment, whatever its character, consists of premises and conclusion is a fact sufficiently obvious. In our system, especially, expression of the premises must very often be sought outside the actual judgment-order and collected from other parts of the judicial record or even from evidence aliunde of what took place at the hearing. But the legal nature of the relation between premises and conclusion is independent of the particular structure of the record and the mode of ascertaining what those premises were. Given satisfaction of the requirements of the law with respect to identity of parties, it is …
Constitutional Law - Power To Enact Federal Securities Act Of 1933
Constitutional Law - Power To Enact Federal Securities Act Of 1933
Michigan Law Review
The scope and implications of the Securities Act of 1933 have been set out in a recent issue of this Review. Broadly, the Act regulates the issue and sale of securities by requiring registration thereof with the Federal Trade Commission, by specifying certain data to be included in prospectuses relating to such securities, and by imposing sanctions in the form of penal and civil liabilities. The Act purports to be an exercise of the Congressional power "to regulate . . . commerce among the several states" and "to establish post offices and post roads." Various constitutional questions are involved but …
The Constitution And The International Labor Conventions, Harold W. Stoke
The Constitution And The International Labor Conventions, Harold W. Stoke
Michigan Law Review
The International Labor Organization, since its establishment in 1919, has become one of the most active of the international institutions of the post-war period. It was founded upon that provision of the Treaty of Versailles which binds each signatory nation and those which should later join the organization to endeavor to secure and maintain fair and humane conditions of labor for men, women and children, both in their own countries and in the countries to which their commercial and industrial relations extend.
Corporations-Government Owned Corporation Claiming Attributes Of Sovereignty
Corporations-Government Owned Corporation Claiming Attributes Of Sovereignty
Michigan Law Review
That the government or the sovereign can not be sued without its consent has been so often repeated that it has attained the prosaicness of a legal maxim. Even so the doctrine was never so whole heartedly acceded to in the United States as it was in England, and we find the cases setting up at least one notable exception in the United States as to the property of the sovereign.
Ministerial And Discretionary Official Acts, Edwin W. Patterson
Ministerial And Discretionary Official Acts, Edwin W. Patterson
Michigan Law Review
Two recent cases, one in Michigan and one in Iowa, bring up again the insistent question of judicial control over administrative action and the oft-repeated distinction between "ministerial" and "discretionary" official acts.

Book Reviews, Edwin W. Patterson, Edson R. Sunderland, C E. Griffin
Michigan Law Review
The title of this brilliant little volume might, more accurately, have been, "The Spirits of the Common Law," for it depicts the common law as the battleground of many conflicting spirits, from which a few relatively permanent ideas and ideals have emerged triumphant. As a whole, the book is a pluralistic-idealistic interpretation of legal history. Idealistic, because Dean Pound finds that the fundamentals of the 'common law have been shaped by ideas and ideals rather than by economic determinism or class struggle; he definitely rejects a purely economic interpretation of legal history, although he demands a sociological one (pp. io-ii). …

Abatement and Revival - Pendency of Another Action Ground for Dismissal - Plaintiff brought an action in B county to recover damages as the result of a collision between his truck and defendants automobile. The defendant had previously brought an action in P county, where he resided, against the plaintiff, for damages arising out of the same collision, which action was pending when the latter was begun. Defendant filed a plea setting up the pendency of his own action in P county and moved to dismiss plaintiff's action. Motion denied. Defendant appealed. Held, the action should have been dismissed. Allen …
Political Crimes Defined, Theodore Schroeder
Political Crimes Defined, Theodore Schroeder
Michigan Law Review
Continental Europe is in the midst of revolutions. The immediate antecedents are such as to suggest the probable accompaniment of more widespread and perhaps even more intense passions of various sort, than have ever before been brought into being with a revolution. This in turn suggests the likelihood that there will follow more political plots and counter-revolutions than is usual in such cases. From such causes it is highly probable that the juridical meaning of the statutory words "an offense of a political character" will be a matter of frequent controversy, as successive crops of exiles claim the right of …
German Legal Philosophy, John M. Zane
German Legal Philosophy, John M. Zane
Michigan Law Review
Annexed as an appendix to the translation of Kohler's Philosophy of Law is an appreciation of the work by Adolf Lasson, 1 who complains that he himself once wrote a philosophy of law which has sunk into oblivion, probably for the reason, as he modestly suggests, that he knew so much of systematic philosophy that he had no time to acquire any "special scientific learning either in the law or any other special department of knowledge."2 This complaint is a confession, child-like and amusing in its vanity, which could be dismissed without comment, were it not something that is wholly …

The Proposed Michigan Judicature Act. The Michigan Legislature, at its last session, passed an act (No. 286, Public Acts of 1913) providing for the appointment of a Commission to revise and consolidate the laws of the State relating to procedure. The Governor appointed Alva M. Cummins, J. Clyde Watt, and Mark W. Stevens as members of this commission, and, the result of their labors has just appeared in the form of a proposed bill regulating the entire subject of procedure in all the courts of the State. The bill is a long one, embracing 565 printed pages, but it is …

Some Contributions Of Psychology To The Conception Of Justice, James Tufts
Some Contributions Of Psychology To The Conception Of Justice, James Tufts
Michigan Law Review
The two general standpoints from which all attempts to define justice and rights proceed, are that of the individual and that of the social whole. From the standpoint of the individual, we have such principles as 'to every man according to his deserts,' or 'to every man according to his needs,' as well as the stubbornly surviving principle of natural rights, which is imbedded in our institutions even though discredited by philosophers. From the standpoint of society, we have the principle that justice means the determining of individual relations by the general order and the subordinating of individual to public …
