Aerial Navigation Nov 1930

Aerial Navigation

Michigan Law Review

With the rapid increase of the use of the air by airplanes and other craft, courts are bound to be called upon frequently to determine the rights and liabilities of the owners and operators of aircraft with reference to other persons in various positions. It is probable that, as was found to be true in the cases of other new devices, the principles of the common law are sufficiently elastic and adaptable to determine the settlement of most, if not all, of the controversies.


Quasi-Contracts-Dutiful Intervention-Discharge Of Public Officer's Duty Nov 1930

Quasi-Contracts-Dutiful Intervention-Discharge Of Public Officer's Duty

Michigan Law Review

By statute in Montana the boards of county commissioners were ordered to cause such highways as were necessary for the public welfare to be "laid out, recorded, opened" and maintained. A highway was laid out through the plaintiff's land in 1903, but the county commissioners refused to continue constructing it though requested to do so by the plaintiff, instead compelling him to remove the fences on his property. His entire land being thus thrown open to the public, he constructed the road himself in 1926, with the knowledge of the commissioners, who on its completion immediately accepted it but refused …

Sutherland, 58 App. D. C. 153, 26 F.(2d) 525. The plaintiffs sued the son in Kentucky, where part of the land was located, and the Alien Property Custodian in this suit to recover the property on the theory that after the eight-year period which the laws of Kentucky allowed the alien heir in which to dispose of the realty, the title vested in them as next of kin …

Landlord And Tenant-Equitable Remedies Of Landlord-Adequacy Of Remedy By Re-Entry

Michigan Law Review

Defendant held plaintiff's land under a year-to-year lease, which provided that plaintiff or his agents should have the right to enter in the fall to plow for future crops, with the general right of re-entry for breach of conditions. The term was to end on March 1. In the preceding September, defendant refused to allow plaintiff's new tenant to enter for plowing. The plaintiff asked for an injunction against this interference. Held, there was an adequate remedy at law by exercising the right of re-entry in connection with an action of forcible entry and detainer. Vance v. Sumner (Neb. …

Affidavits And Notice Under Ohio Mechanics' Lien Statute, Joseph O'Meara Jan 1930

Affidavits And Notice Under Ohio Mechanics' Lien Statute, Joseph O'Meara

Journal Articles

Recent cases under the Ohio Mechanics' Lien Statute have tended to emphasize the existing confusion in the perfecting of mechanics' liens and the need for statutory revision. The scintilla rule should be abandoned. Nor should the doctrine of stare decisis call up misgivings.

Rights Of A Vendee Under An Executory Contract For The Sale Of Realty As Determined By The Supreme Court Of Washington In Recent Cases, Herald A. O'Neill

Washington Law Review

Since the case of Ashford v. Reese, it has been a much mooted question as to the extent of a vendee's rights under an executory contract for the sale of realty The purpose of this article is not to discuss the correctness of the rule of law as laid down in the Ashford case, but to examine the rights of a vendee, irrespective of the question as to whether or not he should have what is known in the law as an equitable title. Logically, even though the doctrine of equitable conversion be rejected, the vendee's remedy of specific performance …

Mortgages - Equity Jurisdiction - Personal Decrees Against The Mortgagor May 1929

Mortgages - Equity Jurisdiction - Personal Decrees Against The Mortgagor

Michigan Law Review

The Michigan supreme court recently held that the jurisdiction of equity in proceedings for the foreclosure of mortgages is governed by statute, and that equity can only render a personal decree against the mortgagor where the statute expressly permits it. This view, if correct, must be recognized as an exception to the well settled doctrine that a court of equity which has obtained jurisdiction of a controversy on any ground or for any purpose, may retain such jurisdiction for the purpose of administering complete relief. Michigan has repeatedly affirmed this general doctrine.
