Criminal Law And Procedure, John O. Cole

Mercer Law Review

The Georgia appellate courts wrote opinions in over 500 cases during the year of the survey period, most of which were in the court of appeals. The volumes in question in this survey are positively bloated with criminal appeals. Reading through them is a depressing experience for two reasons. First, something seems amiss in a system in which so many attorneys, judges, law clerks, other officials, printers, and trees participate in an appellate process that for the most part changes nothing and has no effect on the litigants. Second, while some of the appeals are meritless to the point of …

Insurance, Maximilian A. Pock

Mercer Law Review

A few prefatory and quite impressionistic observations seem warranted. The annual stream of substantive "insurance" cases, and cases that have an "insurance" integument, continues unabated. Georgia has definitely joined the ranks of "tastemaker" states that have a decided influence on the evolution of insurance law, as is evidenced by the frequent appearance of Georgia decisions in our leading law school casebooks.

The new user-friendly "easy reading" policies are surfacing in ever increasing numbers in our appellate jurisprudence. Whatever their intrinsic merits, these policies seem to absorb more judge-time because they do not, as yet, travel with the baggage of decades …

Appeals, Interlocutory And Discretionary Applications, And Post-Judgment Motions In The Georgia Courts: The Current Practice And The Need For Reform Legislation, Edward C. Brewer Iii

Mercer Law Review

The old saying, "appellate judges spend all of their time looking for error, while trial judges spend all of theirs seeking the truth" has no justice to it, however accurate its literal description of the litigation process.' It is correct, however, that before the search for truth can begin at the appellate level, the supreme court or court of appeals must look for any error concerning the timeliness of the appeal. The practicing attorney, therefore, must know whether an order or judgment is appealable; and if so, when, where, and how should it be appealed?

The Appellate Practice Act of …

Local Government Law, R. Perry Sentell Jr.

Mercer Law Review

In a year defined by global realignment, juristic unions that were are no more. As flags fell from legal fortresses previously deemed impregnable, precepts formerly unthinkable coalesced into startling staples of litigational performance. In sharp contrast to this panorama of pandemonium, the banner of local government law never dipped; indeed, its proud and uninterrupted summitry gave classic illustration to the diplomatic art of staying the course. Its judicial decisions marked the domains of boundary conundrums, and its statutes sought settlement of analytical quandaries. In cold war's wake, law's universe hailed one clear winner: the law of local government.

Construction Law, Brian J. Morrissey, Matthew W. Wallace

Mercer Law Review

Nowhere is the downturn in the economy more pronounced than in the construction industry. Contractors and subcontractors are going out of business with increasing frequency. When a party to a construction project defaults on its obligations, everyone else involved in the project is affected. Material suppliers may have been left unpaid, the bank must examine its potential liability, the surety must determine its exposure, and above all else, the work.must be completed. The cases and legislation during this survey period reflect this aspect of the construction industry.

The most significant event during the survey period was the enactment of new …

Torts, Cynthia Trimboli Adams, Charles R. Adams Iii

Mercer Law Review

One hundred years ago, on a stultifyingly hot summer morning, Andrew Borden, a wealthy, eccentric miser, and his second wife, Abby, were brutally hacked to death in their tiny home in Fall River, Massachusetts.' The peaceful community was shattered by this gruesome event and by the sensational murder trial of Mr. Borden's younger daughter, Elizabeth Andrew Borden. Following her unexpected acquittal, the increasingly reclusive Miss Borden lived on in Fall River, enjoying her inherited wealth, but always a social outcast, taunted by the children chanting just beyond her garden wall:

Lizzie Borden took an ax, Gave her mother forty whacks. …

Postmodern Constitutionalism As Materialism, Francis J. Mootz Iii

Michigan Law Review

Professor J.M. Balkin's recent essay in the Michigan Law Review assesses the implications that postmodernism holds for constitutional law. Although I agree with Balkin about many of the specific issues that he believes must be addressed in a postmodern constitutionalism, I find that his manner of talking about postmodernism is unproductive in an important way. Balkin quite correctly argues that a postmodern constitutionalism should not mimic the fragmented and superficial culture of postmodernity, nor should it devolve simply to normative claims that postmodernity is desirable and should be embraced or adopted within the law. However, Balkin's thesis that a postmodern …

The Meaning Of "Under Color Of" Law, Steven L. Winter

Michigan Law Review

The argument proceeds as follows. In Part I, I examine why the conceptual problem of who or what is "the State" is so intractable. In Part II, I present the historical evidence that establishes beyond doubt the pedigree and meaning of the phrase under color of law. I explain why Frankfurter would have indulged in such an obvious historical error to take the position he did. I suggest that, as was the case with the invention of modem standing doctrine, Frankfurter was here engaged in a stealthy, anachronistic campaign against the jurisprudence of the Lochner era - attempting to …

A Bargaining Analysis Of American Labor Law And The Search For Bargaining Equity And Industrial Peace, Kenneth G. Dau-Schmidt

Michigan Law Review

In this article, I present an alternative economic analysis of unions and collective bargaining that utilizes recent advances in labor economics and some simple applications of game theory to address the deficiencies of the traditional monopoly model.

The article proceeds in four parts. In Part I, I provide a brief primer on the economic analysis of unions and collective bargaining. I discuss the various possible sources of union wage increases, possible employer responses to union wage demands, and alternative models of the costs of collective bargaining. In Part II, I outline the traditional monopoly theory of unions by combining the …

Defining Computer Program Parts Under Learned Hand's Abstractions Test In Software Copyright Infringement Cases, John W.L. Ogilive

Michigan Law Review

This Note proposes a set of computer program part definitions that develop Learned Hand's abstractions test to make it more useful in software infringement cases. The Note takes no position on the proper scope of protection for software under copyright law, but argues that no consensus is possible on which program parts deserve copyright protection until courts recognize that computer programs are composed of components whose definition lies beyond judicial control. Program parts defined in conclusory legal terms will never provide a stable basis for reasoned debate over the conclusions presumed in the definitions.
