Scientific Investigation And Defendants' Rights, B. J. George Jr.
Michigan Law Review
Advances in science, medicine and industry have made much of the world a more pleasant place in which to live. In general more men are living a physically more satisfying life in more comfortable surroundings than preceding generations. But with this has come a parallel increase in criminality to the point that the term "crime wave" is heard with increasing frequency. Many crimes are facilitated in their commission by adaption or application of new scientific discoveries by criminal elements. A natural consequence is that already overburdened police departments turn as quickly as is financially possible to new scientific techniques in …

The National Probation and Parole Association has been working for over 35 years to improve the administration of justice and in the publication of "Guides for Sentencing" it has provided one of its most important services to judges who are charged with the administration of criminal justice and to juvenile and domestic relations courts. The book is the first of a series of practical manuals for all of the above named courts and it is the result of the combined labors of 37 specially selected United States, state and juvenile judges for a period of about five years.

Procedure And Evidence -- 1958 Tennessee Survey, Edmund M. Morgan
Vanderbilt Law Review
Construction and Sufficiency on Demurrer: A pleading must be construed in the light of matters judicially noticed; an allegation of facts from which the inference of the existence of an essential fact is no more reasonable or is less reasonable than an inference of its non-existence is not the equivalent of an allegation of that essential fact. ...
Thus in an action against a Pension Board for money due, a demurrer to the bill of complaint specifying only the failure to allege a ground of recovery does not raise the question whether the decision of the Pension Board is made …

Variable Verbalistics -- The Measure Of Persuasion In Tennessee, Kenneth L. Roberts, William M. Sinrich
Vanderbilt Law Review
In a trial one party always has the affirmative burden of persuading the finder of fact to adopt his allegations as true. This burden is met by inducing a particular degree of belief in the mind of the fact finder.'Manifestly, absolute truth is not attainable in a lawsuit. Rather certain facts are found to exist from all the evidence presented and these findings labeled true for the purposes of the case. Since different factual situations require different measures of persuasion, it is necessary that the fact finder, whether judge or jury, know and understand the particular measure applicable in order …

Civil Procedure - Pre-Trial Discovery - Disclosure Of Amount Of Defendant's Liability Insurance, David L. Genger
Civil Procedure - Pre-Trial Discovery - Disclosure Of Amount Of Defendant's Liability Insurance, David L. Genger
Michigan Law Review
In an action arising out of a highway collision, plaintiff sought disclosure of the amount of defendant's liability insurance in a pre-trial discovery proceeding. The defendant was adjudged to be in default for his refusal to disclose this information. On a writ of certiorari, held, the order of the trial court is quashed. Only matters which can actually be admitted and used as evidence or matters which might lead to the finding of such evidence are proper subjects of discovery under the Florida rule. The amount of defendant's insurance is not relevant to the litigation since it will accomplish …
