Liability Of A Carrier Under A Bill Of Lading When The Goods Have Not Been Received By The Carrier, H S. Ross Nov 1916

Liability Of A Carrier Under A Bill Of Lading When The Goods Have Not Been Received By The Carrier, H S. Ross

Michigan Law Review

The coming into force on January I, 1917 in the United States of the FXDMAL BILL Or LADING AcT1 has given new interest to a question which was at one time much debated, namely: should a carrier whose shipmaster or agent has signed a bill of lading be liable to an innocent holder for value of such bill of lading if the carrier can show that the goods were never shipped?

Equity In Rem, Edgar N. Durfee Jan 1916

Equity In Rem, Edgar N. Durfee

Michigan Law Review

Perhaps the most important legal publication of the past year is a monograph, by Charles Andrews Huston, which is published as the first volume of Harvard Studies in jurisprudence. It is inscribed as a dissertation submitted to the faculty of Harvard Law School in compliance with the terms of the Research Scholarship, and is dedicated to Roscoe Pound, to whom, the author tells us in his preface, he is indebted for the suggestion of the field of investigation, for constant inspiration, and for concrete suggestion and criticism.

English Judicature Act Of 1873, Willis B. Perkins Feb 1914

English Judicature Act Of 1873, Willis B. Perkins

Michigan Law Review

It seems to be the general impression that reform in judicial procedure is a new and radical thing in the history of jurisprudence. This is far from the fact. It is as old as jurisprudence itself. From Solon to Justinian, from Justinian to the Magna Charta, from the Magna Charta to Bentham, from Bentham to Field, and in every civilized country, radical changes have taken place from time to time, touching both procedure and substantive law. Court systems have been codified, systematized and rearranged to meet advancing and changing social and industrial conditions. From the religious ceremonies, constituting the methods …

Corporations And Express Trusts As Business Organizations, Horace Lafayette Wilgus Jan 1914

Corporations And Express Trusts As Business Organizations, Horace Lafayette Wilgus

Articles

PRESIDENT BUTLER of Columbia University is reported to have said in an address before the New York Chamber of Commerce in 1911, that "the limited liability corporation is the greatest single discovery of modem times, whether you judge it by its social, by its ethical, by its industrial, or, in the long run--after we understand it and know how to use it,--by its political, effects." 1

Jurisprudence: A Formal Science, Joseph H. Drake Jan 1914

Jurisprudence: A Formal Science, Joseph H. Drake

Articles

Holland defines jurisprudence as "the formal science of positive law". The meaning of science is plain enough. A good many pages are devoted to the elucidation of the words "positive" and "law," but the term "formal" he explains only by analogy. As there is a formal science of grammar to which belongs, for example, the concept of possession, which has its material manifestation in Latin grammar in a genetive termination and in English grammar in the preposition "of," so there is a formal science of law, material manifestations of whose fundamental principles are found in various systems of actual legal …

Roman Law And Mohammedan Jurisprudence, Part 3, Theodore P. Ion Mar 1908

Roman Law And Mohammedan Jurisprudence, Part 3, Theodore P. Ion

Michigan Law Review

After having, in a summary manner, reviewed the historical connection existing between the Roman and Mohammedan laws, and examined the social condition of their respective people, we now come to our last theme, namely, the comparison of their laws proper, which will show their similarity in more than one point. This examination-which will be preceded by an explanation of jurisprudence in both systems and an attempt to show the likeness of their respective jurisconsults-will be limited to certain subjects of personal law and contracts, and concluded with a few observations on judicial organization.

Roman Law And Mohammedan Jurisprudence, Part 2, Theodore P. Ion Jan 1908

Roman Law And Mohammedan Jurisprudence, Part 2, Theodore P. Ion

Michigan Law Review

In examining the early life of the Romans and comparing it with the social condition of the people of the Arabian peninsula in the pre-Islamic times, who are rightly considered the best type of the race, amongst those who embraced the faith of Mohammed, we are immediately struck with the great similarity that existed between the Roman gens; or the Greek ϒένος; and the Arabian Akila, though it cannot thereby be concluded that this likeness necessarily denotes a descent from the same stock. A distinguished French orientalist, in observing this striking similarity, ventured to conjecture that both …

Roman Law And Mohammedan Jurisprudence (Part 1), Theodore P. Ion

Michigan Law Review

A comparison of the Roman law with Mohammedan jurisprudence, is a task not easy to accomplish, nor can an essay on that theme be made comprehensive enough to embrace all the ramifications of both legal systems. The object, therefore, of the present article, is to make only a cursory comparison of them; and to demonstrate their similarity in more than one point, showing the close analogy existing between them, and the influence that the laws of Rome exercised in the development of the Islamic legislation. As in the early days of Rome, law and religion had a close connection with …

Doctrine Of Stare Decisis, Edward B. Whitney

Michigan Law Review

I am requested to present a paper whose theme is suggested by the Present Problems of Private Law, as distinguished from law that has a constitutional or international aspect. I doubt whether there is any other section of the Congress whose themes are so difficult to select. We cover, indeed, those branches that mainly concern the ordinary, plain, steady-going, stay-at-home, law-abiding citizen,-that multitude of questions among which most legal practitioners everywhere are wearing out their lives; working every day and all day upon Present Problems of Private Law. Each of those problems interests the parties to the particular litigation or …
