Constitutional Law- Eminent Domain - Power Of State To Condemn Land For Low-Cost Housing And Transfer To The United States, Oscar Freedenberg
Michigan Law Review
Public low-cost housing legislation on a national scale in this country began with title II, section 202 of the National Industrial Recovery Act of 1933, which authorized the administrator to embark upon a program for "construction, reconstruction, alteration, or repair under public regulation or control of low-cost housing and slum-clearance projects." But soon thereafter, in United States v. Certain Lands in the City of Louisville, a majority of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit decided that the N.I.R.A. was unconstitutional so far as it attempted to authorize the condemnation of land by the United …

Banks And Banking -Trusts - Right Of Bank To Sell Participating Trust Certificates In Self-Owned Property, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
In 1923 the trust company entered into a transaction with the land company by which the land company borrowed $130,000 with which it purchased a city property for slightly less than that amount and gave title to the trust company as security for the loan. Through a series of loans later negotiated the trust company came to have an investment of $150,000 in the property. In 1926 the trust company made an agreement with the land company pursuant to which the trust company declared itself trustee of the property at an appraised value almost fifty per cent above the purchase …

Deeds - Construction - Effect Of Words Showing Purpose Of Grant, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff sought to enjoin defendants from drilling for oil and gas on a strip of land which defendants claimed through a "right of way deed" conveying and warranting the strip to a railroad company "as and for its right of way'' and describing the land as "across and upon" a certain quarter-section. The deed recited as consideration $250 and the benefits accruing to the grantor through the construction and operation of a railroad on the land. Tracks were never laid on the strip, but the railroad company continued to pay taxes thereon. Held, that under Illinois law a fee …

Landlord And Tenant - Necessity For Consideration For Lease, James A. Lee
Michigan Law Review
In an action to cancel a five-year lease, it appeared that the lessee had agreed to pay as rent an amount equal to one cent a gallon on each gallon of gasoline delivered, by it, on the leased premises. Held, that the lease was valid, as it created a bilateral contract supported by consideration on both sides, since according to the court's construction of the lease the lessee had impliedly promised to use the premises as an automobile filling and service station for the stipulated period and so would necessarily be required to deliver gasoline there. Jackson v. Pepper …

Railroads -- Extent Of Title Acquired By Railroad By Adverse Possession Of Land Used As Right-Of-Way - Effect On Mineral Rights, Roy L. Rogers
Michigan Law Review
In a recent Michigan case it appeared that for more than the statutory period of limitation the plaintiff railroad had maintained a right-of-way over land to which the defendant held the record title. A decree quieting title in fee simple absolute in the plaintiff railroad was sought in order to determine the ownership of the oil and gas underlying the right-of-way. The court held that the railroad acquired by adverse user of the right-of-way no title to the oil and gas or other minerals beneath the surface of the land.

Measures Of Land Value For Utility Regulation, Lrston R. Barnes
Measures Of Land Value For Utility Regulation, Lrston R. Barnes
Michigan Law Review
The appraisal of the land of utility corporations presents problems that are not encountered in the valuation of other utility properties. The basic principles and methods of appraisal applicable to other properties are considered inappropriate for the valuation of lands, and certain inconsistencies between the treatment of land and other properties suggest embarrassing questions as to the principles which should guide the regulation of utility rates. Two concrete problems may serve to provide orientation for the discussion which follows: What elements of cost imposed on utilities in the acquisition of real estate are entitled to consideration in establishing rates? To …

Eminent Domain - Measure Of Compensation - Admissibility Of Evidence Of Past Profits, Alfred G. Ellick Jr.
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff corporation, lessee for a term of ten years of a tract of real estate located at the intersection of a main highway and the tracks of the lessor railroad, was engaged in the poultry business and in the retail buying and selling of automobile equipment. The location of the plaintiff's leasehold enabled the plaintiff to effect many economies in the operation of its business. The defendant municipality constructed a viaduct over the railroad tracks in such a manner that, while none of the plaintiff's property was actually taken, its usefulness as a retail outlet was destroyed. Plaintiff brought suit …

Eminent Domain - Power Of The Federal Government To Condemn Land In Public Use For An Inconsistent Federal Use, Robert P. Kneeland
Michigan Law Review
Defendants, landowners and next of kin of persons buried in a cemetery which was being subjected to condemnation, moved to dismiss the federal government's petition for condemnation of such lands on the grounds that the federal statutes did not authorize the United States to take land already dedicated to a public use for an inconsistent use; and that public cemeteries were not subject to the United States' power of eminent domain. The land was being condemned to effectuate a federal project under the National Industrial Recovery Act and the Federal Emergency Relief Appropriations Act of 1935, and was for public …

Public Officers - Federal Officer's Liability For Damages Done To Property Pursuant To Statutory Authorization, Jerome J. Dick
Michigan Law Review
The defendant, pursuant to a contract with the United States government for improving navigation on the Missouri River, built some structures in the bed of this navigable waterway which caused a shifting of the channel resulting in damage to the riparian lands of the plaintiff. Thereupon plaintiff sued for damages. In reversing the trial court, which had granted judgment for the plaintiff, the circuit court of appeals said that the action could be maintained against the defendant if there was a wrongful invasion of plaintiff's property rights; but held for defendant because the damage suffered by plaintiff was an incident …
Taxation - Federal Estate Tax - What Is A General Power Of Appointment Within The Meaning Of The Federal Statute?, John H. Pickering
Taxation - Federal Estate Tax - What Is A General Power Of Appointment Within The Meaning Of The Federal Statute?, John H. Pickering
Michigan Law Review
Decedent exercised her testamentary power to appoint the income of a discretionary trust. The commissioner declared a tax deficiency for failure to include the property subject to the power in the gross estate. The executor appealed on the ground that the power was a special power under Wisconsin law since the trustee could withhold the income from any beneficiary. Held, the power was general since it was exercisable in favor of the donee's estate or her creditors and therefore the exercise of the power was taxable under section 302(f) of the Revenue Act of 1926. Morgan v. Commissioner, …

Taxation - Income Tax - Improvements Made By Lessee As Income To Lessor, Benjamin W. Franklin
Michigan Law Review
In 1915, defendant leased a tract of land to X for ninety-nine years. The lease provided that the lessee could remove the old building and replace it; and that on termination, the lessee should surrender the land, buildings and improvements. In 1929, the lessee razed the old structure and erected a new one. On default by the lessee in 1933, the lease was cancelled and defendant repossessed the premises. The commissioner of internal revenue determined that the difference between the fair market value of the new building in 1933 and the unamortized cost of the building razed in 1929 was …

Constitutional Law - Eminent Domain - Value As Fixed By Agreement Between The Parties - When Is Property Taken For Purpose Of Determining Payment Of Interest?, John H. Pickering
Michigan Law Review
Defendant's land, situated between the riverside and set-back levees of the proposed floodway extending along the western bank of the Mississippi from Bird's Point to New Madrid, Missouri, was inundated in the flood of 1937, at which time the floodway, with its system of fuse plugs (whereby the riverbank levee was to be lowered to allow flood waters to spend their destructive force by spreading over larger areas) was not yet in operation. Thereafter the United States, under authority conferred by the Flood Control Act of 1928, instituted condemnation proceedings to secure flowage rights over defendant's land. Defendant claimed that …
