The Capital Gains "Holding" Dilemma, Allen Sultan

Vanderbilt Law Review

An important question under the capital gains provisions of the revenue laws is the meaning of the term "hold." The author studies judicial concepts of "holding" and concludes that inconsistencies have been introduced by judicial reaction to changing concepts of property. Noting that past legislative attempts to remedy the situation have been fruitless, he issues a call for "enlightened" congressional action.

Commercial Transactions And Personal Property -- 1962 Tennessee Survey, John A. Spanoale

Vanderbilt Law Review

The Code, and its repealer provisions, will not become effective in Tennessee until June 30, 1964. This delay gives the practicing attorney fifteen months to become familiar with its provisions. This amount of time will be needed for such education, for the Code is a very large and detailed piece of legislation, and little has been written comparing the present Tennessee law to the Code. It is not the purpose of this article to attempt to summarize the effect of the provisions of this legislation on the present Tennessee law, but only to give notice that it has been enacted …

Condominium--Home Ownership For Megaopolis?, John E. Cribbet

Michigan Law Review

The past year, 1962, witnessed no let up in the cold war between East and West. In the race for the conquest of space, in the battle of national rates of economic growth, in the propaganda struggle to fix the responsibility for nuclear testing, in the trial of strength over Cuba, and in countless other areas, each bloc leader continued to measure achievement against the rival's successes or defeats. The cold war is a deadly business and produces little to warm the cockles of a man's heart, but, if only the threat of nuclear destruction could be averted, there is …
