Tort Law As Corrective Justice: A Pragmatic Justification For Jury Adjudication, Catharine Pierce Wells
Tort Law As Corrective Justice: A Pragmatic Justification For Jury Adjudication, Catharine Pierce Wells
Michigan Law Review
The purpose of this article is to develop a pragmatic analysis of corrective justice that will serve as a partial justification for current practices of tort adjudication. Part I discusses the concept of corrective justice and explores its relationship to the problem of justifying tort law. Part II argues that certain contemporary theories of corrective justice fail to provide an adequate basis for regarding individual tort outcomes as just. Part III develops a pragmatic account of corrective justice and argues that it accurately describes current practices of tort adjudication. Finally, Part IV argues that these practices are justified in the …

Realization, Recognition, Reconciliation, Rationality And The Structure Of The Federal Income Tax System, Patricia D. White
Realization, Recognition, Reconciliation, Rationality And The Structure Of The Federal Income Tax System, Patricia D. White
Michigan Law Review
There are a few structural requirements that are necessarily common to any tax system. In Part I of this article I examine those requirements. I show that by isolating the necessary structure of a tax system from its particular content or goals, we can better understand the role played within the federal system of certain of its most characteristic features. In particular, I trace the function of the realization requirement for the recognition of income and distinguish it from another sort of function that could lead to the recognition of income within an income tax system. This second function is …
Optimal Antitrust Penalties And Competitors' Injury, William H. Page
Optimal Antitrust Penalties And Competitors' Injury, William H. Page
Michigan Law Review
Herbert Hovenkamp's primary target in Antitrust's Protected Classes is the Chicago School's optimal deterrence model of antitrust penalties. Substantive antitrust rules are often overinclusive prohibiting practices even when they are efficient - in order to avoid the costs of error associated with a more case-specific rule. The optimal deterrence model attempts to correct for this overinclusiveness by setting the penalty for antitrust violations at a level just sufficient to deter only inefficient instances of the violation. The task is complicated by, among other things, the myriad effects antitrust offenses can have on economic actors: allocative inefficiencies and efficiencies (the losses …
Groping And Coping In The Shadow Of Murphy's Law: Bankruptcy Theory And The Elementary Economics Of Failure, James W. Bowers
Groping And Coping In The Shadow Of Murphy's Law: Bankruptcy Theory And The Elementary Economics Of Failure, James W. Bowers
Michigan Law Review
Part I briefly examines the conventional explanation for bankruptcy's defining characteristic, its default distributional rule. It concludes that the conventional explanation is insufficiently informative for us to tell whether the Bankruptcy Code (Code) is actually working or not. Part II argues that the only existing systematic attempt to explain bankruptcy law, the so-called "Creditors' Bargain" Theory, is inadequate for two reasons. First, the predictions it generates are belied by real-world events. Second, it is mistaken on theoretical grounds, primarily because it ignores how debtors are likely to manage their assets. Part III presents the Murphian theory of failing behavior, the …
Adequate Protection And Administrative Expense: Toward A Uniform System For Awarding Superpriorities, Julia A. Goatley
Adequate Protection And Administrative Expense: Toward A Uniform System For Awarding Superpriorities, Julia A. Goatley
Michigan Law Review
Part I of this Note reviews the legislative history of relevant Code sections and the Code language that pertain to the granting of adequate protection. Section 361 of the Code provides for three types of adequate protection. Sections 362, 363, and 364 set out instances when actions by the trustee that result in a decrease in the value of a secured party's interest require the provision of adequate protection. Finally, sections 503 and 507 designate circumstances when prepetition secured creditors are eligible to receive administrative expenses. Section 507(b) authorizes allowance of an administrative expense claim when the adequate protection provided …

Pure Politics, Girardeau A. Spann
Pure Politics, Girardeau A. Spann
Michigan Law Review
Part I of this article considers the impact that judicial discretion has on the traditional model of judicial review, and that model's reliance on the Supreme Court as the primary guardian of minority interests. Part II argues that the interests of racial minorities can be better advanced through the ordinary political process than through the process of Supreme Court adjudication. Part Ill emphasizes that minority participation in Supreme Court proceedings cannot ultimately be avoided and, accordingly, suggests a political model of the Court that minorities can use in an effort to neutralize the Court's distortion of the political process. Part …
Applying Section 2 Of The Voting Rights Act To Single-Member Offices, Edward J. Sebold
Applying Section 2 Of The Voting Rights Act To Single-Member Offices, Edward J. Sebold
Michigan Law Review
This Note questions whether an exemption for single-member offices is justified. Part I provides a brief overview of the Voting Rights Act and the types of discrimination in the political process to which it applies., Part I then reviews the decisions on single-member offices, including the courts' attempts to define single-member offices. This Part concludes neither Congress nor the Supreme Court dictates an exemption for single-member offices. Instead, single-member offices should be open to challenge if they hamper the achievement of section 2's goals. Part II identifies the goals of section 2 by developing a number of theories to give …
