Washington Case Law—1957; Administrative Law, Stephen C. Watson

Washington Law Review

Presented below is the fifth annual Survey of Washington Case Law. The articles in this survey issue have been written by second-year students as a part of their program to attain status as nominees to the Law Review. The second-year students were guided in their work by third-year students on the staff of the Law Review and by various members of the law school faculty. The case survey issue does not represent an attempt to discuss every Washington case decided in 1957. Rather, its purpose is to point out those cases which, in the opinion of the Editorial Board, constitute …


Effect Of Adoption Of The Model State Administrative Procedure Act On Existing Administrative Procedures In Washington, John J. O'Connell Mar 1958

Effect Of Adoption Of The Model State Administrative Procedure Act On Existing Administrative Procedures In Washington, John J. O'Connell

Washington Law Review

The absence of uniformity and co-ordination is perhaps best illustrated by reference to those agencies performing an administrative function without substantial legislative direction, such as the Tax Commission, and those agencies which operate under relatively rigid controls, such as the Department of Employment Security. This lack of uniformity has resulted in confusion of the public and members of the bar practicing before administrative agencies. Because of limited space, this discussion will be restricted to an examination of agencies which are representative of the many varied and separate administrative procedures in the state. Included is an appendix listing additional state agencies, …

Administrative Law Problems Of Delegation And Implementation In Washington, Philip A. Trautman

Washington Law Review

It is the purpose of this article to examine the bases upon which the Washington court has approved or disapproved the granting of power to persons and agencies other than those specified in the constitution—delegation, and to note generally the limitations which have been placed upon those persons and agencies in exercising the powers granted to them—implementation.


The Board Of Industrial Insurance Appeals After Nine Years: A Partial Evaluation, Donald H. Wollett Mar 1958

The Board Of Industrial Insurance Appeals After Nine Years: A Partial Evaluation, Donald H. Wollett

Washington Law Review

Prior to 1949 the Department of Labor and Industries adjusted claims made under the Washington Industrial Insurance Act arising out of industrial injury, death, and disease, subject to review by the superior courts. Initial determinations were made ex parte by the Supervisor of Industrial Insurance. Appellate determinations, where a re-hearing was requested, were made by the Joint Board, consisting of the Director of the Department and two of his subordinates—the same Supervisor of Industrial Insurance who had made the initial determination, and the Supervisor of Safety. The Joint Board's primary function was quasi-judicial. However, since the tribunal consisted of the …

The Model State Administrative Procedure Act, Bernard Schwartz Mar 1958

The Model State Administrative Procedure Act, Bernard Schwartz

Washington Law Review

Senate Bill 180, in its original form, incorporated the substance of the first seven sections of the Model State Administrative Procedure Act. It is this which makes specially relevant an article devoted to the Model Act in a symposium devoted to Washington administrative law. If, as appears likely, a bill similar to S.B. 180 should become law in the near future, it is important to have available in this state a convenient analysis of the parent legislation from which the Washington law will, in large part, have been derived.


The Scope Of Judicial Review Of Administrative Action In Washington, Cornelius J. Peck Mar 1958

The Scope Of Judicial Review Of Administrative Action In Washington, Cornelius J. Peck

Washington Law Review

The scope of judicial review of administrative action in the state of Washington is a subject to be approached with caution. The number and variety of statutory review provisions make the possibility of summarizing the law and drawing valid and useful conclusions seem near to impossible. Though some cases quite clearly discuss the factors which affect the scope or intensity of judicial review of particular types of administrative action, other cases in which such analysis is much needed fail to mention or discuss the problem. One is led to wonder whether the law is truly to be found in those …
