Perpetuities, Privity And Professional Liability, D. Orville Lahy Jan 1966

Perpetuities, Privity And Professional Liability, D. Orville Lahy

University of Richmond Law Review

As the number of malpractice cases against members of all professions continues to increase, it seems appropriate to review several new developments which may be of considerable importance to the practicing lawyer with respect to his professional liability. The time has come to approach this delicate subject with some plain language about property law and the portentous responsibility of the legal profession in the context of the rule against perpetuities.

Right Of First Refusal--Homogeniety In The Condominium, Ira E. Parker, Iii Oct 1965

Right Of First Refusal--Homogeniety In The Condominium, Ira E. Parker, Iii

Vanderbilt Law Review

The condominium, a newly popular but relatively old' concept in real property law, is defined basically as an apartment project involving individual fee ownership of a family unit in a multi-unit structure or structures. To complete the ownership picture, the individual fee owners are also tenants in common, with undivided interests, in the land on which the structure is built, and in other parts of the structure which are not part of an individual unit. Due to the anticipated popularity of this unconventional real estate ownership,state legislation has blossomed in the past four years, and today, all but a few …

Condominium: A Reconciliation Of Competing Interests?, James C. Clark Oct 1965

Condominium: A Reconciliation Of Competing Interests?, James C. Clark

Vanderbilt Law Review

This note will first examine some of the operative provisions of the condominium statutes. Particular emphasis will be placed upon those provisions which are basic to the creation, existence, and dissolution of this unique form of property ownership. The FHA Model Statute For Creation of Apartment Ownership will be the principal vehicle of analysis, for it is the basis of many of the state condominium statutes. State provisions which differ from the Model Act will then be examined to discover the best statutory answer to the needs of condominium housing. Finally, attention will be focused on the tax implications of …


Condominium--Tax Aspects Of Ownership, Richard R. Mcdowell Oct 1965

Condominium--Tax Aspects Of Ownership, Richard R. Mcdowell

Vanderbilt Law Review

The ancient concept of condominium ownership has been revived in this country as an answer to the increasing demand for adequate urban housing. The advantages of individual home ownership have had to be subordinated by many families in favor of the convenience of apartment rental. A partial answer to this problem has been found in the creation of cooperative apartments, but this device still leaves much to be desired.' It was not until Puerto Rico achieved its initial success with condominiums that the advantages of this form of home ownership fully came to the attention of this country. To encourage …

Property—Power Of Termination—Effect Of Failure To Exercise Within A Reasonable Time, Anon Jun 1965

Property—Power Of Termination—Effect Of Failure To Exercise Within A Reasonable Time, Anon

Washington Law Review

The Washington court recently considered the effect of prolonged silence and lack of affirmative action by the holder of a power of termination after a condition subsequent has been broken. In 1884, the grantor conveyed land to a water company. The deed required that the land be used for a right of way to conduct water, enforceable by a power of termination reserved to the grantor and his heirs. The land was subsequently conveyed to plaintiff by a deed subject to the same condition. Prior to 1905, the condition occurred when the land was set aside for park purposes. Not …

Decedents' Estates, Trusts And Future Interest -- 1964 Tennessee Survey, Herman L. Trautman Jun 1965

Decedents' Estates, Trusts And Future Interest -- 1964 Tennessee Survey, Herman L. Trautman

Vanderbilt Law Review

Validity of Instrument Which Only Appoints Fiduciary--Is an instrument which makes no testamentary gift, but only designates or appoints the personal representative to administer the estate and provides certain special powers of fiduciary administration entitled to probate as a valid will? While it has been said that there need be no dispositive gift of property to entitle a testamentary writing to probate as a will,' there seems to have been no definite court decision in Tennessee so holding until the recent case of Delaney v. First Peoples Bank of Johnson City. In that case a writing properly executed with the …

Domestic Relations -- 1964 Tennessee Survey, T. A. Smedley Jun 1965

Domestic Relations -- 1964 Tennessee Survey, T. A. Smedley

Vanderbilt Law Review

Though most of the family law decisions of the supreme court and appellate courts of Tennessee reported during 1964 were of the common garden variety, four cases presented issues of notable significance, and in three of them the supreme court seems to have decided questions of first impression in this jurisdiction. As usual, the most common cause of controversy lay in matters of alimony, child support, and property settlements; but there were also decisions regarding grounds for divorce, child custody, the wife's right to damages for loss of the husband's consortium, and the parents' liability for a child's tort. Three …


Restitution -- 1964 Tennessee Survey, John W. Wade Jun 1965

Restitution -- 1964 Tennessee Survey, John W. Wade

Vanderbilt Law Review

The most significant case during the Survey period is Gulf Oil Corp.v. Forcum. The State of Tennessee condemned for highway purposes certain property including the location of a filling station. Defendant was lessee of this property and had installed its own tanks, pumps and other equipment. Plaintiff had the contract to construct the highway and was entitled under this contract to salvage condemned property. Refusing to allow defendant's agent to remove the service station equipment, plaintiff removed the equipment itself at considerable expense. When the condemnation proceeding was completed, defendant was awarded 2,000 dollars for the value of its leasehold, …


Sabbatino Doctrine Modified In Foreign Assistance Act Of 1964, Michigan Law Review May 1965

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 …

Prior Lien On Rents And Profits Upheld As A Method Of Financing Repairs- In Re Dep't Of Bldgs., Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

Official findings of the New York Legislature in 1962 revealed the existence in certain cities of housing conditions which, unless immediately corrected, might cause irreparable damage to buildings or endanger the life, health and safety of their occupants or the general public. To facilitate the correction of these conditions and to increase the supply of adequate, safe dwelling units, the legislature enacted the 1962 Receivership Law, which creates a procedure enabling a city to enforce its housing codes by compelling needed repairs and improvements.

The Corporate Mortgage Under Article 9 Of The Uniform Commercial Code And The New York Solution, George C. Coggins Apr 1965

The Corporate Mortgage Under Article 9 Of The Uniform Commercial Code And The New York Solution, George C. Coggins

Michigan Law Review

A corporate mortgage has been defined as "an indenture intended to convey property, real and personal, tangible and intangible, to a trustee for bondholders, as security for the bonds issued and to be issued thereunder" by a corporation. This financing device, utilized by many large corporate organizations, has grown to be of paramount importance in the field of corporate financing, and the lack of attention given by the Code to the long-term debts of corporations has raised serious questions of filing procedures. Discussion of the novel treatment accorded by New York to the problem of perfecting security interests in corporate …
