Judgment Against Insured Is Conclusive Proof Of Amount Of Claim Against Dissolved Insurer- Commonwealth Ex Rel. Woodside V. Seaboard Mut. Cas. Co., Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

Plaintiffs, injured in an automobile accident, brought suits against an insured taxicab company. Before the case came to trial, the insurance commissioner found the insurer insolvent. In a separate proceeding he obtained a court order dissolving the insurer, enjoining the prosecution of any legal action against the insurer's assets, and providing for the filing of proof of claims with the insurance commissioner. The insurer's attorney, who had entered an appearance on behalf of the taxicab company, withdrew, and in an undefended action the plaintiffs recovered judgments against the cab company totalling nineteen thousand dollars. Unable to obtain execution on these …

The Expanding Horizons Of Legal Services--I, Monrad G. Paulsen

West Virginia Law Review

Some old functions are being performed in a new manner. More resources are being provided for that …

William 0. Douglas -- His Work In Policing Bankruptcy Proceedings, John W. Hopkirk

Vanderbilt Law Review

William 0. Douglas, while associated with the Securities and Exchange Commission during the mid-nineteen thirties, was responsible for a study of methods and procedures of corporate reorganization. By examining this area of Douglas' work, we can compare the position on corporate reorganization which the Justice developed as an administrative official for the New Deal with his later consideration of the same problems as a member of the Supreme Court of the United States. Through this comparison we can observe a number of basic attitudes which were manifested by Douglas both before and since he has joined the Court. Important among …

The Report Of The Osgoode Hall Study On Compensation For Victims Of Automobile Accidents, Allen M. Linden

Books

The Osgoode Hall Study was aimed at filling the factual lacuna which prevented an informed assessment of the Ontario system of compensating automobile accident victims. Those in charge of the study set out to collect and analyze statistical data which would illuminate the strength and weaknesses of the present system of loss distribution. A survey was designed which would discover the financial costs incurred by injured individuals and whether they were uncompensated, undercompensated or overcompensated for these costs. The project further aimed at describing the interrelation of the tort, private loss insurance and government reparation schemes, the role of lawyers …

Group Representation By Attorneys As Misconduct, Richard M. Markus

Cleveland State Law Review

This article is intended to consider the future of group retainers in light of the conflicting views of proponents and opponents. Attention will first be given to the "Canons of Professional Ethics" which affect this subject and the judicial decisions interpreting them. Next, an attempt will be made to evaluate the effect of the Supreme Court Brotherhood case, and other related decisions, upon the Canons. Finally, an effort will be made to anticipate the prospects of group legal service with a view towards implementing or modifying present standards.
