The difficulty of classifying cases on the police power has not evaporated since the review of decisions for the preceding year. The headings there suggested are used here. Classification on the basis of the objects of the legislation appears too precarious to be attempted with any confidence. It seems safer to work along the line of the subject matters with which the legislation deals. Certain topics are species of a wider genus, and thus the same case may be put in two or more groups. Readers who are dissatisfied with the classification adopted may be assured of the sympathy of …

Professor Hicks has done for a few great lawyers and 'a few great books what it is hoped he may do for many more lawyers and many more books. Out of his full and intimate knowledge of the literature of our profession he has gathered and presented to us in most entertaining fashion the human as well as the intellectual and professional characteristics of a full half dozen men, each of whom holds a somewhat unique place in the development of Anglo-Saxon law.

Attorney's Interest in His Case undera Contract for Contingent Fees - Absolute protection for an attorney who has given services in a cause wherein he runs the risk of receiving no compensation for his efforts would require that he be considered as having an equitable assignment of the specified percentage of the judgment from the filing of the first paper, and that he have the right to carry the case through to final judgment, on his own behalf, any desire of his client to discontinue, dismiss or compromise to the contrary notwithstanding. On the other hand, the courts frequently say …

Supreme Court's Construction Of The Federal Constitution In 1920-1921, Thomas Reed Powell

Michigan Law Review

This review of Supreme Court decisions on constitutional law during the October Term of 1920 follows the plan of its predecessors.' Its aim is the modest one of exposing the precise points decided and the precise or unprecise reasons given in support of the results reached. A valiant effort is made to refrain from criticism or from adding anything to the contributions of the judges. In the footnotes are assembled references to discussions of the cases reviewed in the text and of other issues of constitutional law considered in recognized law journals from October, 1920, to October, 1921. No effort …

Constitutional Law - Adoption and Amendment - Rearrangement not a New Constitution. - A convention was authorized to propose revision, alterations, or amendments to the existing state Constitution. After proposing several amendments which were adopted at popular elections, the convention appointed a special committee to draft a rearrangement of the Constitution and amendments. The reported rearrangement contained slight changes of substance, while declaring that "Such Rearrangement shall not be deemed * * * to change the meaning or effect of any part of the Constitution * * * as theretofore existing or operative." This Rearrangement was adopted by the convention …

Judges In The British Cabinet And The Struggle Which Led To Their Exclusion After 1806, Arthur Lyon Cross

Michigan Law Review

Among the anomalies in the queer and devious course of Eng- £ lish constitutional progress few have been more striking than the number of reforms which have been due to the Conservatives.. One of no little significance was brought about during that period of political stagnation-the era of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars. This was the exclusion of judges from the Cabinet, as the result of a political struggle in which the forces of opposition, though temporarily defeated, formulated a policy which was destined henceforth to prevail.

Michigan Law Review

The Domicile of a Wife - In 1908 Professor Dicey stated flatly, as a rule of the English law without exceptions, that the domicile of a married woman during coverture is the same as that of her husband, and changes with his." It is a rule which makes for hard cases and offers constant invitations for exceptions to meet the situations it creates. Must a deserted wife follow her husband to the ends of the earth to secure the domiciliary jurisdiction for divorce? May he, by shifting his own place of permanent residence, arbitrarily deprive her of capacity to make …

The plight of the public utilities following the World War has been shouted in a babel of demands for increased rates from one and all. The public has turned a doubting or hostile ear to these demands, and the utilities have overwhelmed the utility commissions with a vast mass of evidence to prove their case. None seem to have been harder hit than the electric railways. Some have ceased to operate, automobiles have already made deep cuts in their revenues, and there are not wanting those who predict that the electric railways, operating on fixed tracks, are already out of …
