The Recognition Of Russia, Edwin D. Dickinson Dec 1931

The Recognition Of Russia, Edwin D. Dickinson

Michigan Law Review

Revolution in Russia culminated, on March 15, 1917, in the abdication of the Romanoffs and the establishment of the Provisional Government. In November, 1917, the Provisional Government was overthrown by the Bolsheviki and the Russian Socialist Federated Soviet Republic was proclaimed. Thus in nine turbulent months authority in Russia passed from the autocracy of the Czars, through the ineffective hands of the moderates, to extreme radicals frankly committed to communism and the dictatorship of the proletariat.

Plaintiff, a resident of England, and defendant, a resident of New York, entered into a contract for the sale and delivery of zinc.

A German Work On Trade Marks And Unfair Competition In The United States, Hanna Katz Nov 1931

A German Work On Trade Marks And Unfair Competition In The United States, Hanna Katz

Michigan Law Review

The acquaintance of German lawyers with American trade-mark law and protection against unfair trading was based until now on the individual studies of persons especially interested in this subject. German textbooks and commentaries on industrial property rights treat international and foreign rules too, but they scarcely give a sufficient notion of how to create a valid trade-mark and protect the trader in his full enjoyment thereof in the U. S. A. Yet the necessity of having such knowledge is a rather broad one in Germany as in all other European countries selling trade-marked articles to their customers on the other …


Report On Prosecution, Rollin M. Perkins Nov 1931

Report On Prosecution, Rollin M. Perkins

Michigan Law Review

The logical starting point was the discovery and restatement of existing knowledge and information on these subjects, and because of the tremendous mass of material which has appeared in the form of surveys and reports within the last decade and a half, it was deemed wise to enlist the services of an expert in such matters.

Conflict Of Laws-Renvoi Doctrine Mar 1931

Conflict Of Laws-Renvoi Doctrine

Michigan Law Review

H, an Englishman, married W in England. On separation H acquired a domicil in Germany. A child was thereafter born to Y, a woman with whom H was living in Germany. H subsequently divorced W in Germany and married Y. Whether the child was legitimate determined whether H had validly exercised a power of appointment in an English settlement. Held, legitimacy is to be determined by the law of the domicil, including its rules of private international law. Germany, referring the matter to English law, found a remittance which Germany accepted and applied German municipal law. The child, by …
