Principal And Agent - Extent To Which An Agent May Testify As To The Existence Of The Agency, Arthur A. Greene Jr. Mar 1939

Principal And Agent - Extent To Which An Agent May Testify As To The Existence Of The Agency, Arthur A. Greene Jr.

Michigan Law Review

The legal concept that opinions of lay witnesses are not admissible evidence is of comparatively recent origin, and a matter of historical accident. The theory underlying the exclusion of opinions of laymen is not one of qualification, but of policy. If the witness testifies as to the facts, his opinion or inference is superfluous, as it is the function of the jury to draw the inferences. The testimony of the agent to the existence of the agency relation is limited by this general rule. It is the purpose of this discussion to determine the line of demarcation between opinion and …


Negligence - Violation Of Statute As Negligence Per Se - Exceptions To The Doctrine, John C. Griffin Mar 1939

Negligence - Violation Of Statute As Negligence Per Se - Exceptions To The Doctrine, John C. Griffin

Michigan Law Review

Plaintiff's intestate was driving along the main thoroughfare when B drove into the main highway from a side street without stopping, thereby colliding with the automobile of the intestate. Two days prior to this accident an automobile owned by S negligently collided with one of the defendant's buses with the consequence that defendant's bus, without negligence on defendant's part, knocked down an arterial stop sign. This stop sign had been erected at the intersection of the main highway and the side street out of which B drove his car. A Washington statute made anyone who should deface, mutilate, tear down, …


Contracts - Restraint Of Trade - Legality Of Covenant Restricting Use Of Land By The Purchaser Where No Goodwill Transferred, Thomas K. Fisher Feb 1939

Contracts - Restraint Of Trade - Legality Of Covenant Restricting Use Of Land By The Purchaser Where No Goodwill Transferred, Thomas K. Fisher

Michigan Law Review

Defendants' intestate, who owned large interests in two lime companies operating in Washington and California, entered into a contract for the sale of a tract of land to plaintiff's predecessor in title. The contract contained a restrictive covenant to the effect that the grantee, or those claiming under him, would not use any of the limerock in said land for the purpose of making lime. Subsequently the grantor died, and the conveyance and execution of a deed, which included within its provisions the restrictive covenant, were made by the administrator of grantor's estate, pursuant to court order. Plaintiff brought an …


Constitutional Law - Validity Of Sex Offender Acts, William K. Jackson Feb 1939

Constitutional Law - Validity Of Sex Offender Acts, William K. Jackson

Michigan Law Review

The sex offender has become an acute problem. Sociologists, psychiatrists, and lawyers sensing the imperative need for action have devoted much time and thought to the questions involved. Experience has shown that the sex offender is generally a recidivist; he has to be arrested and committed repeatedly for the same type of crimes. The point is graphically illustrated by the case of a man, fifty-nine years of age, arrested recently in Detroit for a sex offense involving a youth. An examination of his record showed that he had been arrested in 1899, when twenty-one years of age, on charges involving …


The Measure Of Recovery In Actions For The Infringement Of Copyright, Julian Caplan Feb 1939

The Measure Of Recovery In Actions For The Infringement Of Copyright, Julian Caplan

Michigan Law Review

Since the present federal copyright statute was enacted in 1909, and especially quite recently, there have been repeated attempts at drastic modification of the law. Certain groups contend that the present statutory provisions are not of sufficient protection to the copyright proprietor, whereas other groups contend that the extent of the protection is entirely unwarranted. One of the chief phases of controversy has involved the measure of recovery in suits for infringement. The issue is of fundamental importance, since the measure of damages determines to a large extent how effective the other provisions of the statute will be. Whether, under …

The Public Interest Concept In Law And In Economics, Robert W. Harbeson Dec 1938

The Public Interest Concept In Law And In Economics, Robert W. Harbeson

Michigan Law Review

It is an interesting and perhaps important coincidence that only a year previous to the famous decision in Nebbia v. New York there appeared two volumes which together constitute an equally notable landmark in the development of economic doctrine, Professor Edward Chamberlin's Theory of Monopolistic Competition and Mrs. Joan Robinson's Economics of Imperfect Competition. While there is no evidence that the latter works influenced the outcome of the Nebbia case, the writer is of the opinion that these studies not only afford a rationale of that decision but also make desirable a re-examination of the concept of "businesses affected …
