Torts - Liability Of Parent For Acts Of Infant

Michigan Law Review

Plaintiff, nursemaid, engaged to look after defendant's young daughter, was bitten by the child. She sued the father for her in jury under Article 2318 of the Louisiana Civil Code. In the district court an exception of no cause of action (the equivalent of a general demurrer) was sustained. The exception was based mainly on the grounds that there was no allegation that the father could have prevented the tort; that there was no allegation that the child had previously exhibited a vicious temper, or that defendant had knowledge of such vicious temper; and that the nursemaid had assumed such …

Equity - Election Of Remedies - Proof Of Claim In Receivership

Michigan Law Review

Plaintiff sold certain chattels under a conditional sales agreement to a partnership which later went into receivership. The purchase price not having been paid, plaintiff filed a general claim with the receiver, which was allowed. Six months later, no dividend having been paid, plaintiff filed a petition to have the general claim withdrawn and a preferred one substituted, based on the title-retaining contract. The court held that by filing and allowance of the general claim plaintiff made a final election between inconsistent remedies which barred rescission and restitution of the specific property. The court held that the inexperience of plaintiff's …

Legal Problems In National Merchandising, Richard Ford

Michigan Law Review

An interstate sales organization encounters an infinite number of problems of legal tactics, some of which recur with great frequency, and are more or less common to every industry. For discussion in this paper the writer has selected a few such problems, chiefly from the electric refrigeration business; these are presented in the belief that they are typical of many lines of national merchandising.

Fixtures - Rights Of Conditional Vendors Against Mortgagees Of Realty

Michigan Law Review

Plaintiff sought to foreclose a mortgage with an after-acquired property clause on an industrial plant in which were installed various pieces of machinery sold by the defendant vendors under a conditional sale to the mortgagor after the execution of the realty mortgage. The machinery was so attached as to become fixtures and was evidently necessary to the continuance of the enterprise, but was removable without damage to the building as it stood before the machinery was installed. It was held that the conditional vendors could remove the machinery. People's Savings & Trust Co. v. Munsert, (Wis. 1933) 249 N. …

Bills And Notes - Incorporation By Reference - Clause In Mortgage Limiting Bondholder's Right To Sue On Bond

Michigan Law Review

Plaintiff, a holder, sued for the principal of and interest on matured bearer bonds which were part of an issue secured by a trust mortgage. Each bond, which was otherwise negotiable, recited that it was secured by a mortgage, "to which indenture reference is hereby made for a statement of the rights of the holders of said bonds." The mortgage provided that all rights of action on the bonds were vested in the trustee and that no bondholder could sue on the primary indebtedness until he had fulfilled certain prerequisites relative to giving the trustee an opportunity to sue. These …

Contracts - Fraud - Implied Representation Of Solvency

Michigan Law Review

Defendant, a wholesale grocer, had been losing steadily for months by selling below cost, and had assets of $83,000 against liabilities of $140,000 on Nov. 21, 1929. On that date he accepted a 90-day trade acceptance drawn by claimant for cases of tomato paste which he had ordered, and which claimant now seeks to reclaim on the ground of fraud. On December 3 defendant obtained the goods, and the next day went into involuntary bankruptcy. Held, that the buyer's promise to pay implies belief in reasonable ability to pay, and that concealment of belief to the contrary is fraud …

Bills And Notes - Forged Indorsement - Liability Of Collecting Bank To Drawer

Michigan Law Review

Plaintiff drew a check payable to V. It was stolen by H, plaintiff's employee, and delivered to a confederate who forged V's indorsement and deposited the check in the defendant bank which collected on the instrument. Plaintiff was reimbursed by H's bonding company, and then sought to recover the amount of the check from the defendant. Held, that though plaintiff could ordinarily recover the proceeds of its stolen, undelivered check from the collecting bank, recovery here would be denied because plaintiff had already been reimbursed for its loss. Washington Mechanics' Savings Bank v. District Title …

The court decided that defendant had violated its agreement with the President to comply with section 7 (a) of the National Industrial Recovery Act. This last was based on …

State Taxation Of Interstate Motor Carriers, Paul G. Kauper

Michigan Law Review

Though the Supreme Court has never had occasion to express its views as to the gasoline tax in its relation to interstate motor carriers (see first instalment of this article), it has been confronted with a series of cases involving automobile registration taxes. Every State today imposes such taxes. A brief discussion of the theory and nature of such taxes will aid in understanding their legal consequences.
