Scope Of Governor's Call As Constitutional Limitation On Business Of Special Session Of The Legislature, John E. Musselman

Nebraska Law Review

The years since World War II have been characterized by a mounting pressure on state legislatures to produce solutions to difficult problems on a moment's notice. One manifestation of this increased pressure has been a rise in the frequency of legislative special sessions called by the governor. The fact that states have been forced to turn to this device with some regularity in recent years makes appropriate the consideration of a state constitutional problem peculiar to the operation of a special session: the permissible scope of legislative business at special sessions.

Conflicts Between Zoning Ordinances And Restrictive Covenants: A Problem In Land Use Policy, Lawrence Berger

Nebraska Law Review

It is a commonplace to note that with an ever-increasing birth rate and decreasing death rate, as well as concomitant increases in demand for food, fiber, mineral resources, and space, effective land use control is a most important problem in our society. The problem is exacerbated by accompanying shifts in population concentrations—first from rural to urban and then from urban to suburban communities. Under our system these problems are handled at least partly (but not wholly) by resort to legal devices. The law has developed three categories of such devices for land use control: (1) those arrived at by consensual …

The Reapportionment Cases: A Conservative Defense Of Individual Rights, Wallace M. Rudolph

Nebraska Law Review

The latest pronouncement of the Supreme Court in the reapportionment cases will be greeted by legal and political commentators as an example of a further usurpation of states rights by the Supreme Court. It will be shown, however, that (1) the decision was required by the equal protection clause, (2) the decision was foreordained by use of the equal protection clause, (3) the Court was not imposing its own views of political theory when it upheld the civil liberties of individuals and limited the power of political majorities, and (4) the decision will not destroy initiative or local individuality but …

Relevancy In Federal Criminal Evidence, Lester B. Orfield

Nebraska Law Review

It is an easy matter to state that evidence must be relevant. And it is easy to define relevancy in terms such as "prove or disprove," "probable inference," "logical as well as legal," and "pointing with compelling force." But the application of a test or test for relevant evidence is not a matter of definition and black letter law. When dealing with rules of evidence it is undeniable that "each case turns on its own facts." This article is devoted to an analysis of relevant evidence in federal criminal cases.

The Nebraska Uniform Commercial Code: Article 6—Bulk Transfers, Rodney Shkolnick

Nebraska Law Review

Bulk sales legislation arose out of an attempt to protect the creditors of merchants who would sell their stock in trade and either squander or secrete the proceeds. Under the normal rules relating to fraudulent conveyances, the creditor could pursue the property transfixed if he could show that the transfer was made with the intent to hinder, delay, or defraud creditors, and that the transferee had knowledge of the transferor's design. However, since a creditor would not be entitled to relief if the transferee was an innocent purchaser for an adequate consideration, and it generally would be difficult to prove …

Substantive Law And The Labor Contract—Two Nebraska Puzzles, Fredric H. Kauffman

Nebraska Law Review

The purpose of this article is to analyze certain characterizations of "substantive law" by the United States Supreme Court in the labor contract field; to determine what impact these designations may have on Nebraska law; and finally, to solve the two jigsaw puzzles created by the interplay of these decisions with both Nebraska and other federal law. The Supreme Court has held that Section 301 of the Labor-Management Relations Act creates a body of federal substantive contract law. The question involved with respect to Nebraska law is whether this creation of federal contract law has any effect upon the Nebraska …

The Nebraska Uniform Commercial Code: An Introduction And Articles 1 And 2, William B. Davenport

Nebraska Law Review

On July 5, 1963, the development of commercial law in Nebraska received a gigantic forward thrust—a thrust necessary to bring that development even with the jet age. On that date Governor Frank Morrison approved Legislative Bill No. 49 of the 73rd Session of the Nebraska Legislature enacting the Uniform Commercial Code. In one sweep of the pen, Nebraska had law (or would, in September 1965, have law) in areas where none has existed previously—either in statutory or decisional form, law which it had taken even the most important commercial states and the British common law jurisdictions hundreds of years to …

Article 8—Investment Securities, Winthrop B. Lane

Nebraska Law Review

This paper sketches some of the important provisions and reasoning back of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code, which will become effective September 1, 1965. It takes the security when issued and deals with the handling of the security on the market. Nebraska, not being primarily a commercial state, has relatively little case law on the subject covered by Article 8. Hence, this article will be helpful in Nebraska in that it will make certain a number of matters now not touched by legislation or case law and will avoid the necessity of trying to weave our way among …

Article 9 Of The Uniform Commercial Code As It Relates To Secured Transactions In Which The Collateral Is Consumer Goods Or Equipment, Jerrold L. Strasheim

Nebraska Law Review

The Uniform Commercial Code becomes operative in Nebraska at midnight on September 1, 1965. From that time, Article 9 of the Code—the Article on Secured Transactions—will regulate, regardless of its form, practically any transaction within the jurisdiction of the State in which the intention is to create a security interest in personal property or fixtures. The purpose of this paper is to delineate and explain the rules of Article 9 which apply to and regulate transactions intended to create security interests in collateral which is either consumer goods or equipment.

Estate Tax—"Possession Or Enjoyment" Under 2036—O'Malley V. United States (F. Supp. 1963), Lloyd I. Hoppner

Nebraska Law Review

As of yet the courts have not been faced squarely with the question of whether in the case of income-producing property, a retained "possession or enjoyment" is enough to tax it to one's estate under section 2036 of the Internal Revenue Code. Thus far there has either been no transfer of the property in question or the courts have found a retention of the "right to the income." It is inevitable, however, that the issue will one day have to be faced. The answer is not clear, but in looking at the reasons for the joint resolution that amended the …

Effect Of Amino Acid Supplementation Of Rations Containing Meat And Bone Scraps On Rate Of Gain, Feed Conversion And Digestibility Of Certain Ration Components For Growing-Finishing Swine, W. G. Luce, E. R. Peo, Jr., D. B. Hudman

Department of Animal Science: Faculty Publications

Previous work at this station (Peo and Hudman, 1962) has shown that meat and bone scraps, when fed at levels from 5 to 10% of the total ration, significantly depress rate of gain of growing-finishing swine. Similar results have been reported by Bloss et al. (1953), Terrill et al. (1954), Meade and Teter (1957), and Becker and Jensen (1961).

The influence of sulfur fertilization on the yield of alfalfa in Nebraska. 2. The influence of sulfur fertilization on the protein, vitamin A, and sulfur contents of alfalfa. 3. The sulfur supplying capacities of various soils under field and greenhouse conditions. 4. The sulfur content of precipitation at widely scattered points in Nebraska. 5. Soil properties associated with sulfur deficiency. 6. Optimum methods for estimating the sulfur status of soils by soil testing. The …

However, from the presence, absence, or abundance of all plants in this group in a particular range it is possible to evaluate past use, determine range condition, and measure effectiveness of grazing and management programs.
The second section, "Common …
