A General Review Of The Work Of The 1939 Washington Legislature, Eugene C. Luccock, Max Kaminoff Jul 1939

A General Review Of The Work Of The 1939 Washington Legislature, Eugene C. Luccock, Max Kaminoff

Washington Law Review

Probably a careful attempt to evaluate legislative activity should take into consideration the opportunities for enacting bad laws which were avoided and the opportunities for enacting good laws which were passed by. A comparative analysis of what the legislature has refused to do as well as what it has done might better reflect the operation of political democracy at work than a bare survey of the "end products", so to speak, as reflected in the paper and ink additions to the body of existing law. In the instance of the twenty-sixth session of the Washington Legislature, the latter consist of …

A Footnote On Dangerous Animals, Mary Coate Mcneely Jun 1939

A Footnote On Dangerous Animals, Mary Coate Mcneely

Michigan Law Review

Much has been said and written by courts and authors on different aspects of the question of liability for injuries by animals, but there remains the task of fitting all these pieces into a complete pattern. The general subject of liability of the possessor of harm-producing animals has been treated on two separate and independent theories: (1) trespass, for injuries by marauding cattle; (2) case, for harms caused by animals other than trespassing cattle. The explanation for the separation of these two bodies of law is in part historical, the possessor of straying cattle being historically so identified with them …


Constitutional Law - Discriminatory State Game Legislation - Constitutionality As To Non-Resident Landowner, Russel T. Walker Jun 1939

Constitutional Law - Discriminatory State Game Legislation - Constitutionality As To Non-Resident Landowner, Russel T. Walker

Michigan Law Review

A non-resident landowner and his assignee brought an action to enjoin enforcement of a Louisiana statute which denied them the right to secure licenses to trap furbearing animals or alligators on the former's land until they had resided in the state for not less than one year. Held, the statute, discriminating as it did against landowners purely on the basis of non-residence, was unconstitutional as a deprivation of property and a denial of equal protection of the law. Pavel v. Patterson, (D. C. La. 1938) 24F. Supp. 915.


Indictment And Information - Requirement Of Specificity In Charging A Statutory Offense, Ward P. Allen Jun 1939

Indictment And Information - Requirement Of Specificity In Charging A Statutory Offense, Ward P. Allen

Michigan Law Review

On an information charging the possession of "a certain habit forming drug, to wit: Marijuana . . . in violation of section 158, Chapter 91, Illinois Revised Statutes (1935)," defendant was convicted in the municipal court of Chicago. The Illinois adoption of the Uniform Narcotic Drug Act made the possession of "any narcotic drug" unlawful; defined "narcotic drugs" to include "cannabis"; and stated that "Cannabis includes the following substances, under whatever names they may be designated: (a) The dried flowering or fruiting tops of the pistillate plant Cannabis Sativa L.," from which the resin has not been extracted; (b) the …

Charities - Indefiniteness - Construction Of Statute Validating Indefinite Trusts For Charity, John M. Ulman May 1939

Charities - Indefiniteness - Construction Of Statute Validating Indefinite Trusts For Charity, John M. Ulman

Michigan Law Review

The testator's will contained a bequest of $10,000 to executors to be held in trust by them and paid out "to such corporations or associations of individuals as will in their judgment best promote the cause of preventing cruelty to animals in the vicinity of Asheville." A state statute provided that no charitable trust should be declared invalid by reason of any indefiniteness or uncertainty of the object or beneficiaries of the trust or because the trustee is given discretionary power in the selection and designation of the objects or beneficiaries of the trust or in carrying out the purpose …


Negligence - Proximate Cause - When Condition Created By Prior Of Successive Negligent Acts May Be The Proximate Cause, Benjamin G. Cox May 1939

Negligence - Proximate Cause - When Condition Created By Prior Of Successive Negligent Acts May Be The Proximate Cause, Benjamin G. Cox

Michigan Law Review

A railroad's employee negligently allowed plaintiff's intestate to board the wrong train and then put her off at an intermediate station to await the proper train. Coming from the waiting room later, preparatory to boarding the right train, intestate fell on the waiting room steps and suffered fatal injuries. Plaintiff sued the railroad. Held, that the employee's negligence was the proximate cause of intestate's injuries and that the employer railroad is liable. Louisville & N. R.R. v. Maddox, 236 Ala. 594, 183 So. 849 (1938).

A Constitution For An Indefinite And Expanding Future, Thomas Reed Powell Apr 1939

A Constitution For An Indefinite And Expanding Future, Thomas Reed Powell

Washington Law Review

It was my thought, when I mis-picked my title, to go with you back a hundred and fifty years to the framing and adoption of the Constitution and assess the wisdom of the Fathers in the light of what has since come to pass. In this thought there was the wisdom that in my barrel there were a number of unpublished papers that might be dusted off for the new occasion if pressure of other duties left no time for more than dusting. These various papers contained much local color that could find no counterpart in the State of Washington. …


Intentional Infliction Of Mental Suffering: A New Tort, William L. Prosser Apr 1939

Intentional Infliction Of Mental Suffering: A New Tort, William L. Prosser

Michigan Law Review

It is time to recognize that the courts have created a new tort. It appears, in one disguise or another, in more than a hundred decisions, the greater number of them within the last two decades. Of course there is no necessity whatever that there should be separate torts, or that a tort must have a name; but if a name must be found for this one, we might do worse than to borrow a word from the vernacular of Kentucky and points south, and call it "orneriness." It is something very like assault. It consists of the intentional, outrageous …

The Legal Significance Of Labor Contracts Under The National Labor Relations Act, William Gorham Rice Jr. Mar 1939

The Legal Significance Of Labor Contracts Under The National Labor Relations Act, William Gorham Rice Jr.

Michigan Law Review

The National Labor Relations Act was passed, as it declares in its first section, to encourage "the practice and procedure of collective bargaining'' and to give workers freedom to designate "representatives of their own choosing, for the purpose of negotiating the terms and conditions of their employment"; and the last of the unfair labor practices named in section 8 is for an employer "to refuse to bargain collectively." Bargaining and negotiating, the National Labor Relations Board has repeatedly declared, must be done in good faith. Discussion is not true negotiation or bargaining. For the employer to bargain in good faith …
