Procedure And The Conflict Of Laws, Jean-Gabriel Castel
Procedure And The Conflict Of Laws, Jean-Gabriel Castel
Articles & Book Chapters
The enforcement of a validly acquired foreign or domestic right is a matter of procedure governed by the lex fori. A Canadian court always applies its own procedural rules to a case involving a foreign element pending before it even though the merits of the controversy .are governed by some foreign law. Never will the court apply a foreign rule that is procedural. The court in which the action is pending cannot be expected to submit to foreign procedural rules. It must conduct the proceedings according to its own rules. Although it may be bound to apply foreign law, this …

Scholarship On Soviet Family Law In Perspective, Whitmore Gray
Articles
The radical changes in the norms of Soviet family law over the past fifty years have reflected the convulsions of Soviet society as well as the revisions of Marxism-Leninism-Stalinism. This paper is a commentary on the writing in this field by Americans in particular, and by other non-Soviets in general. In view of the volume of writing in this field, it has been necessary to limit discussion in the text to a few representative articles illustrating a few of the subject matters treated and various typical approaches employed. The topic is a particularly timely one, for new, comprehensive Principles of …
On Lawful Governments, Joseph Raz
On Lawful Governments, Joseph Raz
Faculty Scholarship
What is the meaning of sentences of the form 'X is the lawful government of the country Y,' and what kinds of statements are normally -made by using them? Most answers to these questions can be classified as legalistic, moralistic, or compromise solutions. The gist of the legalistic approach is that the lawful government is that authorized by the positive law of the land. Critics of the legalistic approach point out that disagreement about the lawful government is not always solved when agreement is reached about the positive law of the land. For example, two people may disagree as to …

Decision Trees, Peter L. Strauss, Michael R. Topping

The object of this paper is to inform those concerned with the administration of justice in Ethiopia – particularly, criminal justice – about a new and simple procedure which may assist in procuring uniform interpretation and application of laws and regulations. The problem of uniform interpretation and application is particularly severe where, as in Ethiopia, new laws must be interpreted and applied by persons who have not yet had the opportunity of formal legal education. For these persons the discovery of the relevant code articles and the understanding of their interrelationships and application must be very difficult indeed. One possible …
