Landlord's Control Of Leased Premises, Albert G. Schleicher

Cleveland State Law Review

Where the landlord has retained possession and control of a part of the demised premises, he may be liable to the tenant or one in the right of the tenant for failure to exercise ordinary care to keep that part of the premises over which he has retained possession and control in a reasonably safe condition. The problem arises over what portion of the premises the landlord has retained possession and control, especially when the lease contains no provision on this subject. A review of the principles and a sampling of various fact situations involving possession and control of the …

Mortgage Theory Of Ohio, James Jay Brown

Cleveland State Law Review

It will be the function of this paper to explore the theory of the real estate mortgage as it is being used in the confused state of Ohio. The theories will be identified and defined. From this academic introduction, practical uses of the theories will be suggested. This will be followed by an analysis of Ohio case decisions since 1929. The conclusion of this analysis will be a determination of whether the state has been consistent in its reasoning and theory.

University of Richmond Law Review

How these amendments affect the liens of judgments obtained before as well as those obtained after the effective date of the amendments (June 27, 1960) will be considered below.

Federal And State Condemnation Proceedings--Procedure And Statutory Background, William E. Miller

Vanderbilt Law Review

The development of our modern and complex society has necessitated a widespread appropriation of private property for public use. The vital importance of present-day eminent domain is emphasized by the staggering proportions of recent and proposed takings in terms of the amount of land appropriated, its monetary value, and the number of individual citizens whose property is affected. In the Middle District of Tennessee alone--of course a small part of the national total-in excess of 700 tracts or parcels of land have been condemned during the past seven and one-half years for various projects, including the Old Hickory Dam and …

Personal Property And Sales -- 1961 Tennessee Survey, James O. Bass, Jr.

Vanderbilt Law Review

The Tennessee courts have heretofore denied recovery in actions for breach of warranty in the absence of privity of contract between the plaintiff and the defendant.' The required privity had not previously been found when a manufacturer was sued by a consumer who purchased from an intermediate dealer. . . .

================================

Contractual Disclaimer.-In the Dodson case, there was an alter-native holding that the consumer could recover on the theory of an implied warranty of quality or fitness. The significance of such a holding lies in the fact that the express warranty which the court found running from General Motors …

Real Property -- 1961 Tennessee Survey, Thomas G. Roady, Jr.

Vanderbilt Law Review

Probably no area of the law is fraught with more confusion than that involving construction of clauses in deeds and wills which impose some restraint on the conduct of grantees or devisees- seemingly not in the best interest of society. Clauses which tend to deter grantees or devisees from marriage or remarriage have constituted a fertile source of litigation for centuries. And though the stated rules of law prohibit and restrict the use of marriage or remarriage as a condition to vest or divest interests in real property, there are very few cases in which the courts in this country …

Taxation - Federal Income Tax - Severance Damages To Real Property Are A Component Of Charitable Deduction, Michael M. Hughes

Michigan Law Review

The United States selected part of petitioners' estate for construction of a Nike missile base and began condemnation proceedings and negotiations for sale of the premises in lieu of condemnation. Upon failure of the parties to agree on a sale price, petitioners made a gift of the site and certain easements in adjoining land to the United States for so long as the site was used as a missile base. In their 1955 return petitioners claimed a charitable deduction of $69,782 as the fair market value, including severance damages to the remaining portion of their estate, of the property conveyed. …
