Warrants In Bond-Warrant Units: A Survey And Assessment, Henry B. Reiling
Warrants In Bond-Warrant Units: A Survey And Assessment, Henry B. Reiling
Michigan Law Review
This Article surveys the warrant in the context of a bond-warrant unit (the typical medium of issuance), and in four main subdivisions assesses (I) the warrant's role in corporate finance, and several major implications and features of its use today for (II) shareholders of the prospective issuer, (III) warrant holder, and (IV) issuer. The present status of the warrant as a highly significant mode of financing requires that particular attention be given to the justification for the issuance of warrants in the light of earlier authoritative criticism, and to the tax consequences and concepts now attending their use. Fortunately, several …
The Expanding Constitutional Protection For The News Media From Liability For Defamation: Predictability And The New Synthesis, Michigan Law Review
The Expanding Constitutional Protection For The News Media From Liability For Defamation: Predictability And The New Synthesis, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
The tort of defamation has a long and complex history dating back to the sixteenth century. Though this tort from the very beginning did not find favor with the law courts, it has managed to survive into the second half of the twentieth century. But this survival may not endure much longer since the Supreme Court has found a deep conflict between the law of defamation and the first amendment. The reasons for this conflict and the Supreme Court's basic resolution of it in favor of first amendment values have been the subject of much scholarly comment, but the Court's …

The Emerging Constitutional Protection Of The Putative Father's Parental Rights, Michigan Law Review
The Emerging Constitutional Protection Of The Putative Father's Parental Rights, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
This Comment will first examine whether the equal protection or due process clauses of the Constitution presently proscribe disparate treatment of the putative father, as compared with other parents, in regard to parental privileges. Attention will then be given to an assessment of the potential impact of the proposed "equal rights" amendment on the putative father's rights in relation to his illegitimate child.
Judicial Supremacy Re-Examined: A Proposed Alternative, G. Sidney Buchanan
Judicial Supremacy Re-Examined: A Proposed Alternative, G. Sidney Buchanan
Michigan Law Review
A citizen critic recently expressed to me his bitter opposition to the Warren Court's decisions on school prayer and school desegregation. If this critic were elected governor of a state or placed in some other position of governmental authority, he would almost certainly use his power to block public school desegregation and to encourage prayer reading in the public schools. Conceding that our critic would be acting controversially in so using his power, would he be acting unconstitutionally? This is the question which this Article will attempt to answer. More generally, this Article will consider the extent to which a …

Recent Trends In Transport Rate Regulation, Leonard S. Goodman
Recent Trends In Transport Rate Regulation, Leonard S. Goodman
Michigan Law Review
The object of this Article is to describe the trends in the Commission's work during the 1960's in some of the areas of rate regulation that could not be settled by mere reference to costs, and in other areas of changing rate policy. This was a prolific period for the Commission, one that involved many rate innovations and a sense of new direction in certain aspects of rate regulation. The present discussion of the Commission's rate work is in no sense complete; and there is no intention to make it so. By emphasizing the decisions of the recent decade, I …
Educational Financing, Equal Protection Of The Laws, And The Supreme Court, Michigan Law Review
Educational Financing, Equal Protection Of The Laws, And The Supreme Court, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
Recently, state systems of financing public education have been overturned or seriously threatened by several state and federal court cases based on the equal protection clause of the fourteenth amendment. Rodriguez v. San Antonio Independent School District, which invalidated the Texas system of educational financing, will be argued before the Supreme Court next term. This Comment will examine the doctrinal and policy problems that the Court will confront and the alternative solutions that are available to the Court when it considers the constitutionality of the Texas system, which is typical of the educational financing programs that have generated so …
Representation Of The Public Interest In Michigan Utility Rate Proceedings, Michigan Law Review
Representation Of The Public Interest In Michigan Utility Rate Proceedings, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
Although the Free Press study centered on political and economic issues, the operation of the Michigan Public Service Commission also raises significant issues regarding the role of public intervenors, agency compliance with statutory requirements, statutory construction, and legislative response to regulatory deficiencies. This Comment will consider the representation of the public interest in Michigan utility proceedings in the context of rate cases involving the state's major utilities. While such an analysis does not reach the breadth of activities performed by the Commission, it is suggestive of the extent to which the Commission is responsive to the public interest generally. Following …

Deferred Compensation Arrangements Under Section 83 Of The Internal Revenue Code: Is Restricted Property Still A Viable Means Of Compensation?, Michigan Law Review
Deferred Compensation Arrangements Under Section 83 Of The Internal Revenue Code: Is Restricted Property Still A Viable Means Of Compensation?, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
When faced with the problem of compensating key executives, employers have tended to avoid the exclusive use of current cash compensation, since this would result in an immediate and substantial income tax to highly paid employees. Deferred compensation plans have been utilized in order to maximize tax benefits for employees, such as deferred recognition of income and capital gains treatment. Although such plans are structured to meet the needs of the particular employer and employee, several forms of deferred compensation are common. Among these are qualified and unqualified pension, profit-sharing, and stock bonus plans; qualified, restricted, and employee stock purchase …

Michigan's Environmental Protection Act Of 1970: A Progress Report, Joseph L. Sax, Roger L. Conner
Michigan's Environmental Protection Act Of 1970: A Progress Report, Joseph L. Sax, Roger L. Conner
Michigan Law Review
The Michigan Environmental Protection Act of 1970 (EPA) represents a departure from the long-standing tradition under which control of environmental quality has been left almost exclusively in the hands of regulatory agencies: it gives to ordinary citizens an opportunity to take the initiative in environmental law enforcement.

Effective Pollution Control In Industrialized Countries: International Economic Disincentives, Policy Responses, And The Gatt, Frederic L. Kirgis Jr.
Effective Pollution Control In Industrialized Countries: International Economic Disincentives, Policy Responses, And The Gatt, Frederic L. Kirgis Jr.
Michigan Law Review
It is generally recognized that efforts toward meaningful pollution control by an industrialized nation or group of nations raise economic problems at the international level. Discussion has touched upon the balance of trade and the effects for developing countries. Yet there seems to have been little attempt to analyze how these problems will manifest themselves and how they may be resolved within the current international legal-economic ordering system. This Article cannot deal with them all, but will examine closely the international competitive disincentives to truly effective pollution-control efforts in the industrialized countries, where environmental imperatives bear heavily on national decision-makers. …

Adjustment To Hardship Caused By Imports: The New Decisions Of The Tariff Commission And The Need For Legislative Clarification, Carl H. Fulda
Michigan Law Review
The General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, known as GATT, embodies the commitments of its contracting parties, now numbering eighty countries, to enter "into reciprocal and mutual advantageous arrangements directed to the substantial reduction of tariffs and other barriers to trade and to the elimination of discriminatory treatment in international commerce."
Wilkins V. Bentley: Getting Out The Student Vote In Michigan, Michigan Law Review
Wilkins V. Bentley: Getting Out The Student Vote In Michigan, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
The right to vote is one of the most precious constitutional rights. The Supreme Court has described it as preservative of all rights, a fundamental matter in a free and democratic society, and a bedrock of our political system. Justice Black once stated, "No right is more precious in a free country than that of having a voice in the election of those who make the laws under which, as good citizens, we must live." It supports not only the individual's personal interest in self-government, but also the collective societal interest in broadly based consensual representation. The magnitude of these …
The Regulation Of Subsidies Affecting International Trade, Warren F. Schwartz, Eugene W. Harper Jr.
The Regulation Of Subsidies Affecting International Trade, Warren F. Schwartz, Eugene W. Harper Jr.
Michigan Law Review
We will begin by examining the basic contours of the present GATT regulation of subsidies. We will then consider the theory of comparative advantage underlying the GATT regime and introduce the complications of externalities and the governmental process designed to take account of them. Finally, we will make some tentative suggestions for changes in rules and institutions that might serve to improve the present state of affairs.

Tribal Self-Government And The Indian Reorganization Act Of 1934, Michigan Law Review
Tribal Self-Government And The Indian Reorganization Act Of 1934, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
The Indian Reorganization (Wheeler-Howard) Act of 1934 (IRA) was, by all accounts, one of the most significant single pieces of legislation directly affecting Indians ever enacted by the Congress of the United States. It has been "equalled in scope and significance only by the legislation of June 30, 1834, and the General Allotment Act of February 8, 1887." A major reversal of governmental policy and approach toward Indian affairs was effectuated by the IRA. This Comment will be concerned with the IRA as it affected the concept of tribal self-government, and primarily with those sections providing for adoption of tribal …
