What Is The Law? Ii, Joseph W. Bingham Dec 1912

What Is The Law? Ii, Joseph W. Bingham

Michigan Law Review

I shall now discuss briefly the nature of the causal effects of precedents upon judicial decisions and the justifications for those effects. One frequently hears laymen scoffing at the respect which courts pay to precedents and sometimes displaying a lamentable ignorance both of the nature of the influence which precedents have on the law and of the reasons for the existence of that influence. The influence of past example on human action pervades all human conduct and endeavor at all times. That influence is fundamental. It occurs through instinctive as well as intelligent processes and sometimes runs to unreasonable extents. …


Bank Deposits And Collections, Ralph J. Baker Dec 1912

Bank Deposits And Collections, Ralph J. Baker

Michigan Law Review

Insolvency, no less than natural death, is a tragedy which comes into the midst of business transactions, fixing the claims of parties, and calling for the application of legal principles to determine the nature and extent of their rights. Perhaps no business relationship is more frequent than that of banker and customer or depositor. And while insolvency of banking institutions is happily less frequent than in the ordinary business, it is not so uncommon that questions therein are not often in the courts for adjudication. It would, therefore, be a natural deduction that the legal principles applicable should be comparatively …

The Liability Of A Principal For The Penal Or Criminal Acts Of His Agent, Floyd R. Meechem

Michigan Law Review

What Here Involved. In a previous article the question of the liability of a principal or master for the wilful or malicious acts of his servant or agent, was considered. It is proposed here to consider the liability of a principal or master for the penal or criminal acts of his agent or servant. This will involve two aspects: (a) The civil liability of the principal or master, and (b) His penal or criminal liability.

The Law And Its Study, William J. Hoynes Jan 1912

The Law And Its Study, William J. Hoynes

Journal Articles

The author seeks to give a sweeping discussion the study of law starting with the primitive sources of law and how laws and governance has developed among the great societies of old. Here, the author asserts that these societies studied the power of nature from which they developed their own laws or cultivated a conception natural law. Such societies mentioned are those from which we consider the foundations of legal form and jurisprudence; Babylon, ancient Israel, Egypt, classical Greece and Rome. Then the author offers a brief analysis of the nature of modern legal education, describing the practical and cultural …


The Mosaic Law, Clarence A. Lightner Dec 1911

The Mosaic Law, Clarence A. Lightner

Michigan Law Review

In recent years much has been learned of the civilization, which developed in early times in Mesopotamia. In Babylon, laws appropriate to a vast and wealthy agricultural nation, which was engaged, also, largely in commerce, had been developed many centuries before the authentic history of other peoples begins. This civilization was Semitic. A great light, where formerly but dim reflections had been seen, was thrown upon this jurisprudence by the discovery, in 1901, of the codification of the laws of Babylonia, which was promulgated by King Hammurabi about 2350 B. C. Migration from Babylonia occurred from time to time, and …


The Use And The Abuse Of The Commerce Clause, Fred'k H. Cooke Dec 1911

The Use And The Abuse Of The Commerce Clause, Fred'k H. Cooke

Michigan Law Review

The visible universe, from the giant constellation down to the infinitesimal corpuscle, is in a condition of eternal movement, or, we may say, a condition of eternal transportation. Indeed, there seems to be no phenomenon more universal than this transportation. But we are to here consider it merely as a phenomenon of life, in particular, of human life. In common with other higher animals, man possesses organs that characterize him as a being eminently fitted for transportation; his arms; his legs; even his vocal organs, fitted for transportation (or transmission) of the intangible, that is, of intelligence communicated from one …
