Selling Reclamation Water Rights: A Case Study In Federal Subsidy Policy, Joseph L. Sax

Michigan Law Review

This situation raises some interesting questions about federal reclamation policy and about subsidy policy in general. Why should a program designed to give a needed service at reasonable rates evolve into one where the original recipients, at the end of their time of need, are also rewarded by the gift of a large capital asset? Moreover, why should that reward be given at the expense of their successors on the project, who, one would think, are equally the concern of the reclamation program? These are the questions ·with which this article will be concerned.

Sabbatino Doctrine Modified In Foreign Assistance Act Of 1964, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

Prior to Banco Nacional de Cuba v. Sabbatino, one of the United States Supreme Court's most controversial recent decisions touching on matters of international law, it had been held that American courts could not question titles to property acquired by virtue of a public taking decreed by a recognized foreign government and carried out within its territory. This concept of judicial abstention, embodied in the "act of state doctrine," was held applicable in Sabbatino even though it was alleged that the asserted claim to the property stemmed from a confiscation that violated customary international law. This decision led Congress …

Product Picketing-A New Loophole In Section 8(H) (4) Of The National Labor Relations Act?, Michael A. Warner

Michigan Law Review

Legal writers have been intrigued for years by the challenge of classifying and identifying the resulting incidents of the joint and survivor bank deposit when an attempt is made to use it as a mode of effectuating a donor depositor's intention to confer benefits on a donee co-depositor. Much in their discussions is useful to one who is concerned with the concept that has evolved in Michigan, where a 1909 statute states that some co-depositors are presumed to be joint tenants. Michigan judges and practitioners must determine, however, whether comment about national trends is applicable here, for in many respects …

Personal Holding Companies And The Revenue Act Of 1964, Jerome B. Libin

Michigan Law Review

By 1964, many years had elapsed since significant changes were made in the federal income tax treatment of so-called "personal holding companies." For that reason alone, any amendments contained in the Revenue Act of 1964 that dealt with personal holding companies would have deserved attention. But the fact is that the changes made by the 1964 Act are so powerful in their thrust that they require the most careful kind of study by every practitioner charged with advising closely held corporations. Since the new provisions are rather complicated in nature, such a study cannot lead to a full understanding of …

Substantive Retroactive Remedial Tax Legislation And The Statute Of Limitations, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

Since 1953, Congress has enacted at least forty-eight retroactive amendments to the revenue laws, thirty-nine of which have provided for substantive remedial change. While nine of these thirty-nine amendments have contained specific provisions for extending the limitations period, sixteen have retroactively amended substantive law applicable to years normally barred by the statute of limitations but have not contained a provision extending the limitations period. The question is thus raised whether a provision, silent as to its procedural effect, implicitly repeals or modifies the applicable statute of limitations on claims for refunds brought under the retroactive change in the law.

Court, Congress, And Reapportionment, Robert B. Mckay

Michigan Law Review

In the United States, governmental power is divided vertically between nation and states and horizontally, at the national level, among the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. The Constitution leaves the lines of demarcation deliberately imprecise. Thus, from the beginning it was easy to predict that among those holders of power there would be tension (at least), conflict (probably), or total collapse (a possibility). The miracle of the American governmental system, with just this complexity and lack of definition, is the fact of its survival. It is not at all surprising that there have been a number of crises, some of …
