Faculty Scholarship

On June 17, 1960, twelve Negro college students entered a restaurant in Baltimore, Maryland. The manager approached and informed them of the restaurant's policy not to serve Negroes. Disregarding the manager, the young men sat down at tables and waited for service. The manager again asked them to leave, but they remained quietly seated. A police officer was summoned and, in his presence, the manager requested the Negroes to leave. They refused to answer and remained in their places. Thereupon they were arrested and indicted under a Maryland statute which, as interpreted by the Maryland Court of Appeals, made it …

Problem Of Presidential Inability - It Must Be Solved Now, The, John D. Feerick

Faculty Scholarship

On August 27, 1787, John Dickinson of Delaware asked the Constitutional Convention these vital questions: "What is the extent of the term 'disability' and who is to be the judge of it?" 'His questions regarding the provision on executive succession were never answered. Today, one hundred and seventy-six years later, they remain unanswered. They have been revived from time to time, usually when a President has died or become disabled. Hundreds of answers have been offered. None has been found acceptable. Although concern about the problem of presidential inability had been aroused by the Eisenhower illnesses in 1955, 1956 and …

Family Law 1961 Survey Of New York Law: Part Four: Torts And Family Law, Roger J. Goebel, Arthur W. Rashap

Faculty Scholarship

Legislation designed to enable prompt judicial supervision of private adoptions was the most significant advance in domestic relations law this year. The legislature also subjected the contracts and earnings of infants engaged in professional activities to judicial control. Notable Court of Appeals decisions granted an annulment for constructive abandonment through refusal of sexual relations, denied an injunction against divorce proceedings in a foreign nation, and refused to abrogate the old rule against actions in tort by a child against his parent. Probably the most notorious case of the year was the action for debauchery brought by an eighteen-year-old plaintiff against …

Reconstructing The Roman Law Of Real Security , Roger J. Goebel

Faculty Scholarship

The essential idea of real security is that the debtor transfer to the creditor a possessory interest in a specific item or aggregate of property, chattel or realty, to serve as security for the loan. There are four possible generic types: (1) the debtor vests both ownership and possession of the property in the creditor, subject to a personal obligation to reconvey on repayment; (2) the debtor vests ownership in the creditor, but retains possession of the property by leave of the creditor; (3) the debtor retains ownership of the property, but grants possession irrevocably to the creditor until repayment …

Contracts (1961), Frederick M. Hart

§4.1. Introduction. It has often been argued that certainty is desirable, if indeed not necessary, in that branch of the law which adjusts rights in commercial disputes. Entrepreneurs have the responsibility of weighing business risks, but, as far as possible, they should be relieved of the danger that their commercial judgments may be frustrated by some novel legal decision. There is another attractive attribute of certainty which appeals to some students of jurisprudence - it has a tendency to decrease litigation. Where the law clearly defines rights and liabilities, the commercial community can adjust its actions accordingly and disputes may …


The Constitution And Occupational Licensing In Massachusetts, Henry Paul Monaghan Jan 1961

The Constitution And Occupational Licensing In Massachusetts, Henry Paul Monaghan

Faculty Scholarship

Judges have long recognized that the right to earn a living in any of the common occupations is among those fundamental interests which a democratic society should protect. Justice Bradley characterized it as an "inalienable right," and Justice Douglas asserted that it is "the most precious liberty that man possesses." Indeed, Mr. Justice Field viewed protection of this right as one of the distinguishing features of our republican institutions. That the right to earn a living is generally within the protective mantle of the Fourteenth Amendment is now long settled constitutional doctrine. Writing for a unanimous court in 1915, Mr. …
