Civil Law And The Common Law A World Survey, R W. Lee Dec 1915

Civil Law And The Common Law A World Survey, R W. Lee

Michigan Law Review

In universities and other seats of learning, where men devote themselves to the pursuit of truth, certain great events or movements in the world's history claim attention as essentially and always proper subjects of investigation. Whatever the future may bring, we can hardly suppose a time when the art of Greece, the literature of England, the religions of the East will not be studied. Nor before an assembly of lawyers is it necessary to urge the claims of a great system of law as a subject which may well engage the amplest resources of the human intellect. For many centuries …

Relations Between Equity And Law, Wesley Newcomb Hohfield Jun 1913

Relations Between Equity And Law, Wesley Newcomb Hohfield

Michigan Law Review

At the last annual meeting of the Association of American Law Schools, Professor Walter W. COOK contributed an interesting address on Equity and its relation to Law. Taking as his more specific subject, "THE PLACE OF EQUITY IN OUR LEGAL SYSTEM," the speaker began his discussion with an extensive quotation from MAITLAND'S LECTURES ON EQUITY,--a work cordially welcomed by that distinguished scholar's many admirers upon its posthumous publication in the fall of 1909.

The Law In The United States In Its Relation To Religion, Edwin C. Goddard Jan 1912

The Law In The United States In Its Relation To Religion, Edwin C. Goddard

Michigan Law Review

Man is a religious being. To him, everywhere and always, religion and religious institutions have been and, will be of prime concern. He is also a social being. As such he has always found it necessary to live in an organized society, under some form of government. Man never has lived to himself alone. Government is not an invention, a necessary evil, to which men submit. On the contrary, from the most primitive beginnings it has been man's natural though imperfect instrument for controlling and developing the social estate so essential to his very existence. And universally this government has …

Amenability Of Military Persons To The Laws Of The Land, Charles E. Smoyter Nov 1906

Amenability Of Military Persons To The Laws Of The Land, Charles E. Smoyter

Michigan Law Review

I. To. United States Courts. 2. To State Courts. 3. To Military Courts. General Principles of Amenability-Courts and text writers not unfrequently enunciate as a general principle that military authority is subordinate to civil law. Accepted literally, the broad statement can be sustained by neither law nor precedent. The federal constitution provides for three kinds of military jurisdiction: (a) That known as Military Law, designed to be exercised both in time of peace and war and acquiring its authenticity from the acts of Congress prescribing army regulations and the rules and articles of war, as well as from the established …

French Jury System, Simeon E. Baldwin Apr 1904

French Jury System, Simeon E. Baldwin

Michigan Law Review

France has never adopted the principle of jury trials in civil cases. For criminal trials, it was introduced during the Revolution in 1790, and by a law of the next year any qualified elector: could be chosen as a juror. It has never, however, been extended beyond the decision of the issue between the accused and the public. If (as is permitted) when the offense for which the prosecution is brought has caused pecuniary injury to some private individual, he joins himself to the cause, as a party (partie civile), and claims judgment in his favor for the damages which …
