Dr. Bonham’S Case And The Modern Significance Of Lord Coke’S Influence, George P. Smith Ii

Scholarly Articles

Dr. Bonham’s Case, decided by Edward Coke as Chief Justice of the British Court of Common Pleas in 1610, remains, to this day, the case acknowledging the supremacy of the fundamental (or natural) law interpreted and enforced as such by the judiciary and not a legislative body - here, Parliament. Coke’s idea of a law of nature superior to man-made law was not new. What was original, and even radical for the times, was the notion that the courts of law should be given the power and the right to interpret and enforce that law. This theory of judicial review …

John Locke And The Declaration Of Independence, Kenneth D. Stern

Cleveland State Law Review

In an article published in the Journal of the American Bar Association in 1949, Dean Clarence Manion, then Dean of the College of Law of the University of Notre Dame, stated, "It is misleading to attribute the philosophy of the Declaration (of Independence) to the writings of John Locke." Dean Manion feels that Locke implies that the rights of minority groups and even of individuals are subordinated to the dictates of the majority. Manion concluded that Jefferson's philosophy contrasts sharply with the Lockian creed. A more thorough examination of Locke's writings, however, tends to lead to the opposite conclusion.

A Dissent From The Miranda Dissents: Some Comments On The 'New' Fifth Amendment And The Old 'Voluntariness' Test, Yale Kamisar

Articles

F the several conferences and workshops (and many lunch conversations) on police interrogation and confessions in which I have participated this past summer3 are any indication, Miranda v. Arizona' has evoked much anger and spread much sorrow among judges, lawyers and professors. In the months and years ahead, such reaction is likely to be translated into microscopic analyses and relentless, probing criticism of the majority opinion. During this period of agonizing appraisal and reappraisal, I think it important that various assumptions and assertions in the dissenting opinions do not escape attention.

Natural Law Demythologized: A Functional Theory Of Norms For A Revolutionary Epoch, E. F. Roberts

Cornell Law Faculty Publications

Jurisprudence can afford us some insight into whether a particular system is functioning effectively. To do this jurisprudes must extrapolate the aims of the society and then evaluate how effectively its legal system functions to structure social activity so that those aims are realized in an orderly fashion. Jurisprudence is seen, therefore, to be a form of time and motion study on a grand scale. Judgments about the ultimate worth of a given society’s aims are excluded from jurisprudence, however, on the ground that such emotionally charged and ethically relative conclusions cannot be proved by any empirically verifiable scale of …

Reflections On Professor Chroust's The Rise Of The Legal Profession In America, Donald P. Kommers

Journal Articles

A review of Anton-Herman Chroust’s 1965 study on lawyers and the status of the legal profession in the United States from early colonial days to 1830.

Though the review praises the wealth of facts and detail in the work it argues that Chroust is more interested in glorifying the early American legal profession rather than analyzing the conditions for its growth. It also contends that Chroust does not organize his material according to a coherent theory or conceptual scheme. The review, in addition, asserts that Chroust focuses too much on the pious and self-righteous rhetoric lawyers at the time, assuming …

Legal History In The High Court--Habeas Corpus, Dallin H. Oaks

Michigan Law Review

Ever since Chief Justice Marshall declared that courts could resort to the common law to determine what Congress meant by the term "habeas corpus" in a federal statute, the history of this venerable remedy has played an important role in the Supreme Court. Over the years, however, courts have moved away from using the writ of habeas corpus for its historic functions of eliciting the cause of commitment and compelling adherence to prescribed procedures in advance of trial until today it has become primarily a means by which one court of general jurisdiction exercises post-conviction review over the judgment of …

Professor Kurland, The Supreme Court And Political Science, Donald P. Kommers

Journal Articles

IN A SYMPOSIUM held at the Notre Dame Law School on February 29, 1964, on several constitutional amendments designed to limit the power of the Supreme Court, Professor Philip B. Kurland of the University of Chicago Law School read a terse and delightfully witty paper in which he compared the Supreme Court to Caesar, sieged on the one side by the modem forces of Brutus, and championed on the other side by the contemporary Mark Antonys. There was no doubt in Professor Kurland's mind that the efforts of conspirators like the Council of State Governments, not to mention its less …
