Content Of Covenants In Leases, Harry A. Bigelow
Content Of Covenants In Leases, Harry A. Bigelow
Michigan Law Review
In determining what covenants in a lease will run so as to be enforceable by or against the assignee of the lessee or lessor, the formula that has been consecrated to this problem is that the covenant "must affect the nature, quality, or value of the thing demised or the mode of occupying it." This phrase which was used by Lord ELLENBOROUGH in Congleton v. Pattison is an expansion of the statement in Spencer's case that such a covenant must "touch or concern the thing demised." A second statement not so frequently quoted is that of that "if it be …
Expensive Futility Of The United States Trade Mark Statute, Edward S. Rogers
Expensive Futility Of The United States Trade Mark Statute, Edward S. Rogers
Michigan Law Review
Every lawyer of much experience knows the client who tip-toes into his office, closes the door carefully, and with a great show of secrecy announces that he has discovered or invented the best name for a soda cracker, a patent medicine, a soft drink, or what not, that human ingenuity ever conceived. He wants it protected before any one can steal it from him. He wants it "Copyrighted." This is the expression most commonly used. He seems to be under the impression that some incantation can be performed by means of which he will be able to secure to himself …

Trusts Based On Oral Promises To Hold In Trust To Convey Or To Devise Made By Voluntary Grantees, George P. Costigan Jr
Trusts Based On Oral Promises To Hold In Trust To Convey Or To Devise Made By Voluntary Grantees, George P. Costigan Jr
Michigan Law Review
Where a grantor conveys without consideration other than the grantee's pronise to hold in trust for, or to reconvey or to devise to, the grantor. The situations heretofore considered have all dealt with conveyances on an oral trust for, or oral promise to convey or to devise to, some one other than the grantor. Is the case of a conveyance where the oral promise is for the benefit of the grantor essentially any different? A correct answer to that question necessitates a brief historical consideration of the origin of uses and trusts.
Marbury V Madison And The Doctrine Of Judical Review, Edward S. Corwin
Marbury V Madison And The Doctrine Of Judical Review, Edward S. Corwin
Michigan Law Review
What is the exact legal basis of the power of the Supreme Court to pass upon the constitutionality of acts of Congress? Recent literature on the subject reveals a considerable variety of opinion. There are radicals who hold that the power owes its existence to an act of sheer usurpation by the Supreme Court itself, in the decision of Marbury v. Madison. There are conservatives who point to clauses of the Constitution which, they assure us, specifically confer the power. There are legists who refuse to go back of Marbury v. Madison, content in the ratification which, they assert, subsequent …
Constitutional Background Of The Recent Japanese Anti-Alien Land Bill Controversy, Harriette M. Dilla
Constitutional Background Of The Recent Japanese Anti-Alien Land Bill Controversy, Harriette M. Dilla
Michigan Law Review
The recent contention between the Federal Government and the state of California over the anti-alien land measure raised anew the question as to the conflict of state action with treaty stipulations. It is a problem which, under our constitutional system, may arise at any time and demand an individual solution in every instance. The dilemma which has presented itself repeatedly in American history is this: the states have the reserved right to provide for their public welfare and may exercise their police powers even against a foreign country, while to the Federal Government has been delegated the exclusive jurisdiction over …

The Constitutionality of the Webb-Kenyon Act - In the constitutional history of the commerce clause, by virtue of which absolute control of interstate commerce was given to the Federal Government, there is no question which has caused so much difficulty and has resulted in so many unsatisfactory and contradictory. statements of the law as that problem arising through the attempts of many States effectively to enforce prohibition laws. The power over interstate commerce, delegated to the Federal Government, and the police power, reserved to the States, have not seriously conflicted except in this one instance. But the delegation of power …

Trusts Based On Oral Promises To Hold In Trust To Convey Or To Devise Made By Voluntary Grantees, George P. Costigan Jr
Trusts Based On Oral Promises To Hold In Trust To Convey Or To Devise Made By Voluntary Grantees, George P. Costigan Jr
Michigan Law Review
Where a trust is claimed because a grantee has violated some oral promise in reliance upon which the conveyance to him was made, it is customary to say that he took upon an oral trust. That, however, is often not a correct statement of the situation unless an oral promise to convey or to devise to a third person, or to reconvey or to devise to the grantor, is necessarily to be deemed an oral promise to hold in trust. Many of the so-called oral-trust deed cases are really cases of contracts analogous to bailment contracts, made for the benefit …
Ontario Courts And Procedure, Herbert Harley
Ontario Courts And Procedure, Herbert Harley
Michigan Law Review
I cannot cover this part of the subject better than by quoting literally: "There are two classes of practitioners, barristers and solicitors. A lawyer must belong to one; most belong to both. The barrister alone can conduct a case at trial; the solicitor alone files pleadings."
Notes On Some Interesting Wills, Sidney T. Miller
Notes On Some Interesting Wills, Sidney T. Miller
Michigan Law Review
In treating of this subject no attempt is made to deal with wills analytically or with much technicality. Rather is it the writer's aim to call attention briefly to some wills, ancient or modern, which stand out from the great mass for one reason or another. It would be easy to enlarge this into a treatise on the general theories of will-making; of the customs of different times and localities which sanctioned this or that form,-of nuncupative wills, holographic wills, and the secret or mystic testament provided for by the Louisiana Code, which is sealed up by the testator and, …

A Partnership as a Farmer in Bankruptcy - After much uncertainty and difference of opinion among the courts as to the position of Partnerships under the Bankruptcy Act certain phases of the problem were set at rest by the Supreme Court in Francis v. McNeal. By that case it seems to have been authoritatively settled (1) that in determining the solvency or insolvency of a partnership the individual estates available for payment of firm debts are to be considered, and (2) that an adjudication of the firm as such draws into the proceeding the administration of the estates of members …
Ontario Courts And Procedure, Herbert Harley
Ontario Courts And Procedure, Herbert Harley
Michigan Law Review
The progress made in England under the Judicature Acts of 1873 and 1875, with occasional revisions of procedure, has a deep interest for the American lawyer in search of judicial efficiency. In recent years a number of our lawyers have studied the English courts at first hand and upon their return have spread the news of great accomplishments in the home of the common law. These enthusiastic reports have been subjected to incisive criticism, so that controversy has arisen, and it has been difficult to determine to what extent inference from undoubted facts would apply to our own unsettled conditions. …
Proposed Remedies In Court Procedure, Willis B. Perkins
Proposed Remedies In Court Procedure, Willis B. Perkins
Michigan Law Review
It is the judgment of the writer that the chief function of the legislature is to declare substantive rights. Court procedure being but the machinery by which substantive rights are determined, the responsibility for the effectiveness of that machinery should rest alone upon the courts. Unnecessary prolixity and confusion too frequently result from the present two-fold source of procedural law.
Registration Of Land Titles, John R. Rood
Registration Of Land Titles, John R. Rood
Michigan Law Review
It is proposed in this paper to consider some of the advantages and disadvantages of the older system of no registration, the later system of registering the instruments of conveyance, and the latest system of making the title depend entirely on a recorded adjudication that it is thus and so, which absolutely displaces all former titles-adjudicated or otherwise. It is also proposed to consider some of the reasons why the older systems persist.

The Right of the Patentee to Control the Resale Price - Of the recent decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States, Bauer and Cie. v. O'Donnell, the so-called Price Maintenance Case, was of vital importance to a large number of manufacturers of patented articles. That this decision had a great effect upon such manufacturers is evidenced by the various ingenious methods ahd devices which have since been adopted by numerous manufacturers to avoid the operation and application of the principles set forth in the decision of that case.

Estates By The Marital Right And By The Curtesy In Missouri, Charles K. Burdick
Estates By The Marital Right And By The Curtesy In Missouri, Charles K. Burdick
University of Missouri Bulletin Law Series
By the common law, if a woman married, seised of a freehold estate in land, or became seised of such an estate after marriage, her husband also, by the marital right, became immediately seised of an estate in the land. Although certain characteristics of the estate jure mariti are well established, it has nevertheless seemed to be one of the difficult problems of the law to define its nature.
