Fellow Servant Doctrine In The United States Supreme Court, Albert Martin Kales Nov 1903

Fellow Servant Doctrine In The United States Supreme Court, Albert Martin Kales

Michigan Law Review

The difficulties of the fellow servant doctrine in the United States Supreme Court have been thought to centre principally about the Ross case. The Baugh case, has been said to go far toward overruling it, and the more recent case of New England Railroad Co. v. Conroy, is now taken as overruling it in terms. Nevertheless, the writer believes that the results of all t here cases may be supported upon a common principle. This principle it is the object of this article to suggest.

Rights Of Employer And Employee To Inventions Made By Either During The Relationship, Dwight B. Cheever Feb 1903

Rights Of Employer And Employee To Inventions Made By Either During The Relationship, Dwight B. Cheever

Michigan Law Review

The interesting and difficult question not infrequently arises, what are the respective rights of employer and employee to inventions made by either during the continuance of the relation. While the constantly occurring cases are almost always complicated by special and peculiar facts which must modify to a greater or less extent the decision to be reached in the particular case, it is believed that the following review of the controlling principles and leading cases on the subiect will be of assistance. Since the courts have repeatedly said that "no one is-antitled to a patent for that which he did not …


Preferences Arising From Trust Relations, Harry B. Hutchins Jan 1902

Preferences Arising From Trust Relations, Harry B. Hutchins

Articles

Where property has once been impressed with a trust, the quality inheres therein and in the proceeds thereof so long as the trust relation continues, provided the rights of a bonafide purchaser for value and without notice do not intervene and identification remain possible. The trust impress, in the absence of a superior equity, at once places property in the preferred class. In equity, trust property belongs to the cesiui que trust, and his claim to it cannot be defeated by the insolvency or dishonesty of the trustee, if it constitutes, in an identifiable form, a part of the trustee's …


Authority Of Allen V. Flood, Horace Lafayette Wilgus Jan 1902

Authority Of Allen V. Flood, Horace Lafayette Wilgus

Articles

In the case of Allen v. Flood, one of the Lords asked this interesting question, "If the cook says to her master, 'Discharge the butler or I leave you,' and the master discharges the butler, does the butler have an action against the cook?"' This, Lord Shand said, was the simplest form in which the very question in Allen v. Flood could be raised.

In the case of Allen v. Flood, one of the Lords asked this interesting question, "If the cook says to her master, 'Discharge the butler or I leave you,' and the master discharges the butler, does the butler have an action against the cook?" This, Lord Shand said, was the simplest form in which the very question in Allen v. Flood could be raised.4 And, like the original question, it puzzled the judges and Lords very much to answer.

Labor And Capital Before The Law, Thomas M. Cooley Jan 1884

Labor And Capital Before The Law, Thomas M. Cooley

Articles

The chief concern of every political society is the establishment of rights and of adequate securities for their protection. In America, it has been agreed that this shall be done by the people themselves; they shall make their own laws, and choose their own agents to administer them. But the obvious difficulty of doing this directly has been recognized, and the people, after formulating the charter of government, incorporating in it such principles as they deem fundamental, content themselves with delegating all powers of ordinary legislation to representatives. Notwithstanding this delegation, much direct legislation of a very effective and important …


Lake Superior Mining Co. V. Catharine Erickson, Thomas M. Cooley Dec 1878

Lake Superior Mining Co. V. Catharine Erickson, Thomas M. Cooley

Articles

"Where a mining company let a contract for taking out a certain quantity of ore, but employed persons of supposed skill to watch for dangers from loosened rocks, and in other ways retained a control over the mode of mining, and a servant of the contractors was killed by the falling of a rock, the danger from which ought to have been detected and guarded against: Held, that the mining company was responsible."


The Cases In Which The Master Is Liable For Injuries To Servants In His Employ, Thomas M. Cooley Jan 1876

The Cases In Which The Master Is Liable For Injuries To Servants In His Employ, Thomas M. Cooley

Articles

The frequency with which questions arise, and become the subject of legal controversy, concerning the liability of an employer to persons receiving injuries in his service, must be the excuse for the present paper. The legal questions have recently received the attention of many able jurists, and several of the difficulties which surrounded the general subject but a few years ago may now be considered permanently removed. The purpose here will be, to present the general rules which have been laid down by the authorities, with some of the reasons on which they are based.
