Note And Comment, Edson R. Sunderland, Edwin D. Dickinson, Horace Lafayette Wilgus, Willard T. Barbour, Victor H. Lane

Michigan Law Review

The Writ of Prohibition - Procedural Delay - A disheartening recrudescence of procedural red-tape is found in a recent decision of the Supreme Court of Ohio. A contest arose over the jurisdiction of the Public Service Commission to fix telephone rates in Cleveland. The Commission was engaged in a determination as to the reasonableness of a schedule of rates filed by the telephone company, when a petition was filed in the Common Pleas Court for an injunction against the charging of rates other than those fixed by a city ordinance.

Delivery And Acceptance Of Deeds, Herbert T. Tiffany Dec 1918

Delivery And Acceptance Of Deeds, Herbert T. Tiffany

Michigan Law Review

It is proposed, in the first part of this paper, to consider the nature of the delivery of a deed, more particularly a deed of conveyance, and the facts and circumstances which the courts have regarded as justifying an inference of delivery. The second part of the paper will be devoted to a consideration of the necessity of the acceptance of a deed, in addition to delivery, in order that it may have a legal operation.


Coercing A State To Pay A Judgement Virginia V West Virginia, Thomas Reed Powell Nov 1918

Coercing A State To Pay A Judgement Virginia V West Virginia, Thomas Reed Powell

Michigan Law Review

The Eleventh Amendment to the Federal Constitution postponed for over a century the settlement of the question whether a state of the United States can be coerced to pay a money judgment rendered against it in the Supreme Court of the United States. This it did by postponing the rendition of money judgments against a state. In 1793, it will be remembered, Chisholm v. Georgi4 had held that the provisions of Article III of the Constitution, extending the federal judicial power "to controversies * * * between a state and citizens of another state," and giving the Supreme Court original …


Alien Rights In The United States In Wartime, W C. Hunter Nov 1918

Alien Rights In The United States In Wartime, W C. Hunter

Michigan Law Review

The large number of aliens in the United States presents one of the many problems with which the Government has had to deal in the present war. Technically every immigrant from Germany and Austria-Hungary who has not taken out papers of naturalization and who therefor still owes allegiance to the Fatherland is an enemy alien. But while the great majority of these aliens are naturally sympathetic with German war aims, or at least are not ready to give their wholehearted support to the Allies, they are not a source of danger to the United States. Only a small section have …

Note And Comment, James P. Hall, Henry M. Bates, Edgar N. Durfee, Willard T. Barbour, Ralph W. Aigler

Michigan Law Review

The Law School - In common with all other law schools requiring college work for admission, this school has suffered a very heavy loss in attendance because of war conditions. This, however, is a matter for pride and not for discouragement for it means that our students have gone into the army or navy or other branches of the national service in very high ratio to their total number. And this is by no means due only to the effect of the Selective Service Act for from the very beginning our men have volunteered in great spirit and promptness. In …

Is A Contract Necessary To Create An Effective Escrow?, Ralph W. Aigler Jun 1918

Is A Contract Necessary To Create An Effective Escrow?, Ralph W. Aigler

Articles

WHERE land has been sold and both parties are desirous of protecting themselves pending full payment of the purchase price, there are two common ways of accomplishing their purpose without any change in legal ownership. There may be (1) a contract of sale properly evidenced so as to be enforceable, and (2) a deed executed by the vendor and placed "in escrow." Sometimes one method is preferred, sometimes the other. If the former is adopted, it is, of course, vitally important that the contract comply with the formal requirements of the law; in the latter there has been some difference …


Sociological Interpretation Of Law, Joseph H. Drake Jun 1918

Sociological Interpretation Of Law, Joseph H. Drake

Articles

It is not the purpose of this paper to essay a definition of either of the formidable words in the title. The object is rather to call attention away from the metaphysical question, what is law? to the sociological question, how may we best attain justice in the administration of law? and, by the aid of some examples from history and comparative law, to justify as legal and constitutional the sociological method of interpretation. That such justification is necessary is evident from the fact that although the dictum of Mr. Justice. HOLMES in the dissenting opinion in Lochner v. New …

Does The "Bone-Dry" Law Prohibit The Interstate Transportation Of Intoxicants By The Owner For Personal Use?, Thomas Porter Hardman Apr 1918

Does The "Bone-Dry" Law Prohibit The Interstate Transportation Of Intoxicants By The Owner For Personal Use?, Thomas Porter Hardman

West Virginia Law Review

It has been recently held by the Federal courts, sitting in West. Virginia Districts, that interstate transportation of intoxicants by the owner for personal use is not interstate commerce, and, therefore, not prohibited by the so-called "Bone-Dry" Law. But inasmuch as there are at least two prior decisions squarely contra, and apparently none in accord, it would seem proper, in view of the far-reaching effect of these recent decisions, to examine the soundness of their conclusions.


Sources Of International Law, Charles G. Fenwick Apr 1918

Sources Of International Law, Charles G. Fenwick

Michigan Law Review

International law has clearly reached a drisis in its development. For a period of nearly 300 years preceding the outbreak of the present war international law appeared to the casual observer to have grown steadily and progressively. The student of history was able to point out certain clear and definite advances in the development of the law and assign them to particular dates. Grotius could be pronounced the Father of International Law, and the year 1625, which marked the appearance of his great treatise, could be set as the beginning of the modem period. A noticeable improvement in the law …


Bill Of Lading As Collateral Security Under Federal Laws, Frederick Thulin Apr 1918

Bill Of Lading As Collateral Security Under Federal Laws, Frederick Thulin

Michigan Law Review

The desirability of the bill of lading as collateral security has been recognized in business transactions for many decades. The foregoing fact arises from the inherent nature of the financing of transactions of foreign or domestic trade.
