Warrantless Search Of A College Dormitory, Ronald J. Bacigal
Law Faculty Publications
Student Conduct is as much a part of the collegiate experience as intellectual pursuit, and regulation of student conduct has been a concern of university officials for as long as there have been students and universities. Until the 1960s the courts had few occasions to concern themselves with the regulation of student conduct; and, university officials were free to take any action short of action that was arbitrary and capricious. University officials were deemed to stand in loco parentis and thus could make and enforce any regulation for the physical training, moral enrichment, and betterment of their pupils that a …
Condominium Renovation, Amy R. Piro
Condominium Renovation, Amy R. Piro
Fordham Urban Law Journal
As a result of deterioration or obsolescence of condominium premises, unit owners often decide to renovate. These decisions may raise questions significantly different from those encountered in dealing with ordinary condominium expenses. These include matters such as required authorization, protection of dissenters' rights, and financing. This article explores some of these problems and suggests possible solutions. The author concludes that present law, including statues and condominium association bylaws, should differentiate between renovation expenses and those arising from ordinary maintenance and repairs, and should permit special authorization and financing arrangements for renovations.
Some Effects Of Extending The Navigation Season On The Great Lakes: A Need For Congressional Action, William Iii C. Hain Iii
Some Effects Of Extending The Navigation Season On The Great Lakes: A Need For Congressional Action, William Iii C. Hain Iii
Cleveland State Law Review
The thrust of this note is to probe that "natural right" as affected by the extended navigation season proposal. The basic conflict is one of competing rights and interests. On the one hand is a group of private citizens claiming a private right in the traditional use of the ice in its natural condition. On the other hand are those arguing in favor of the economic desirability of opening a vast, commercially rich region to year-round waterborne accessibility. In other words, there is a clash between conflicting private regional interests, and public national interests. It is the author's contention that …
Semachko V. Hopko: Ohio's Marketable Title Act Comes To The Fore, James F. Szaller
Semachko V. Hopko: Ohio's Marketable Title Act Comes To The Fore, James F. Szaller
Cleveland State Law Review
The Ohio Marketable Title Act became effective on September 29, 1961. The purpose of the Act is to simplify and facilitate land title transactions. This is accomplished by allowing the title examiner to search the record for title defects for only a specified period of years back in time; all claims prior to that period are extinguished. The period of time in Ohio is forty years. Therefore, if a person has a record chain of title for forty years, then any conflicting claims based upon any title transactions prior to that forty year period are extinguished. The basic concept is …
Covenant Of Habitability And The Ohio Landlord-Tenant Legislation, Barbara Hall Nahra
Covenant Of Habitability And The Ohio Landlord-Tenant Legislation, Barbara Hall Nahra
Cleveland State Law Review
With one exception noted later, Ohio courts have been loathe to accept the fact that enforcement of housing codes has been singularly ineffective on a large scale. Without an implied covenant of habit- ability in rental agreements, the indigent tenant today, living in squalid conditions and often lacking a viable alternative, has no effective means of bettering his condition. To remedy this problem, the Ohio legislature, on July 23, 1974, passed Amended Substitute Senate Bill Number 1032 defining the respective rights and obligations of landlords and tenants by holding the lessor of residential property to an implied covenant of habitability …
Landlord-Tenant Law-Dependency Of Lease Covenants-Covenant To Pay Rent Is Dependent Upon Landlord's Warranty Of Habitability
Fordham Urban Law Journal
Plaintiff tenant entered into possession of an apartment with was no written lease and the rent was fixed monthly under the condition that the landlord would make certain repairs to render the premises ‘livable’. The landlord never did and tenant terminated rent payments. The landlord instituted a summary dispossess action against Berzito for nonpayment and the state district court held that the landlord was in violation of his express warranty of habitability and reduced the tenants rent but tenant still did not pay. The trial court ruled in the tenant's favor and rejected the landord's contention that by remaining in …
From Plows To Pliers - Urban Homesteading In America
From Plows To Pliers - Urban Homesteading In America
Fordham Urban Law Journal
The state homestead exemption is the most widely known form of homesteading and exists in the majority if American jurisdictions. A new form of this plan has been added by many east coast cities that allows families to receive a grant of a home at a minimum price on condition that it occupies the residence and improves it to satisfy all applicable codes. The property is then transferred to the homesteader and this benefits both the city and the individual. This urban homesteading plan is the most recent program designed to promote urban renewal and home ownership. Wilmington Delaware was …
Comment: Security Deposits In New York: How Safe Is Your Money?, Stevens Ingraham, Paul J. Yesawich, Iii
Comment: Security Deposits In New York: How Safe Is Your Money?, Stevens Ingraham, Paul J. Yesawich, Iii
Fordham Urban Law Journal
In New York, there has never been a general landlord's statutory or common law lien, the growth of the cities and consequent legal development of the landlord-tenant relationship has enhanced the importance of the leasehold agreement. Most landlords, seeking protection beyond tenants' personal assurances that the lease will be honored, require a provision for a security deposit in the lease. The purpose of the deposit is to assure the tenant's compliance with the covenants of the lease. Confusion over the landlord-tenant relationship with regard to the security deposit has left room for abuse of the deposit for the landlord's gain. …
Note: Landmark Preservation: The Problem Of The Tax-Exempt Owner, Mary Spearing
Note: Landmark Preservation: The Problem Of The Tax-Exempt Owner, Mary Spearing
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This Note examines the effectiveness of the 1965 New York City Landmark Preservation Act with respect to its ability to confront the conflict between the desire to preserve the city's history and the individual's constitutional right to use and control her own property, with particular attention to the unprotected status of the tax-exempt property owner. The author argues that the legislation fails to mesh the two conflicting goals of preservation and just compensation to property owners. She suggests that in order to do so, perhaps a different standard of value should be placed on landmark preservation that focuses on non-economic …
Case Note: Zoning- Population Control In Metropolitan Areas- Construction Industry Association Of Sonoma County V. City Of Petaluma, 375 F. Supp. 574 (N.D. Cal. 1974), Lane J. Genatowski
Case Note: Zoning- Population Control In Metropolitan Areas- Construction Industry Association Of Sonoma County V. City Of Petaluma, 375 F. Supp. 574 (N.D. Cal. 1974), Lane J. Genatowski
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This Casenote analyzes the Northern District of California's recent decision in Construction Industry Association of Sonoma County v. City of Petaluma, 375 F. Supp. 574 (N.D. Cal. 1974), which held that limiting the number of building permits for the purpose of restricting population growth was an unconstitutional infringement on the right to travel, where there is no shortage of municipal facilities to serve the new residence. The Casenote concludes that, although the court had authoritative support for its decision, it may be unwise to use the right to travel to invalidate a local zoning ordinance. Moreover, the right to travel …
Gimme Shelter: Reform Of Real Estate Tax Shelters, Farrell C. Glasser
Gimme Shelter: Reform Of Real Estate Tax Shelters, Farrell C. Glasser
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
Of the many different kinds of tax shelter investments that are available to high bracket taxpayers, the most commonly encountered device is the real estate tax shelter. This article describes the way a tax shelter operates, from both a business-economic and a tax viewpoint, and examines the real estate tax shelter from the standpoint of possible tax reform to correct the abuses that stem from real estate syndications.
Real Property Tax Relief For The Elderly, Edsell M. Eady Jr.
Real Property Tax Relief For The Elderly, Edsell M. Eady Jr.
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
This article focuses on the elderly person's problem of coping with real property taxation. Although property taxes vary in intensity from place to place, the elderly bear a particularly heavy burden. The property tax generally does not reflect a taxpayer's ability to pay, since it is usually levied in proportion to the value of real property rather than in relation to a homeowner's income. Thus people with low incomes may have to pay a greater percentage of their incomes as real property tax than people with higher incomes. The real property tax can be a formidable problem for an elderly …
Real Property- The Rule Against Perpetuities- Option Contract Held Void Due To Violation Of The Common Law Rule
University of Richmond Law Review
The Rule against Perpetuities as originally developed in England and crystalized over two centuries is still alive and thriving in the Commonwealth of Virginia as evidenced by the recent supreme court case of United Virginia Bank v. Union Oil. While a number of states have enacted legislation or judicially adopted ways and means to avoid the harsh results often dictated by the common law rule, it appears that Virginia may be defending a rearguard position which may not be functional in terms of today's commercial world.
The Federal Income Tax Effects Of The Missouri Version Of The Uniform Divorce Act, Alan Gunn
The Federal Income Tax Effects Of The Missouri Version Of The Uniform Divorce Act, Alan Gunn
Journal Articles
The marital property provisions of the new Missouri divorce law render the tax treatment of property transfers and alimony payments unclear. As to property transfers, the problem is that the new law appears to give the wife an interest in property that previously would have been regarded as belonging to the husband. Since this is so, it is possible to argue that a “transfer” of appreciated property to the wife is part of a “division” of property between “co-owners,” and therefore not taxable. Although transfers of appreciated property in connection with a divorce are usually taxable, divisions of community property …
Survey Of The Virginia Law Of Landlord And Tenant, J. Rodney Johnson
Survey Of The Virginia Law Of Landlord And Tenant, J. Rodney Johnson
University of Richmond Law Review
No aspect of the law of real property affects more people as pervasively as the law of landlord and tenant. A recent study undertaken by the Virginia Housing Study Commission showed that almost fifty percent of the Commonwealth's population are tenants.
Condominiums In Virginia- The Condominium Act Of 1974
Condominiums In Virginia- The Condominium Act Of 1974
University of Richmond Law Review
The condominium is one of the fastest growing forms of housing in the United States. As a legal concept, the condominium involves "separate ownership of individual units in a multi-unit project," along with an undivided interest in common areas owned by members of the project. Unit owners, while owning their units separately, are responsible for expenses relative to the management and maintenance of the project.
