Legislative Control Of Municipal Corporations In Washington, Philip A. Trautman
Legislative Control Of Municipal Corporations In Washington, Philip A. Trautman
Washington Law Review
The purpose of this article is to exaimne-the nature of the powers of municipal corporations in Washington in relation to the powers of the state legislature. A municipal corporation has been defined by the Washington supreme court as a body politic established by law as an agency of the state-partly to assist in the civil government of the country, but chiefly to regulate and administer the local and internal affairs of the incorporated city, town or district. Dependent upon the objective of the particular statute creating the body in question and the definition in such statute, the term "municipal corporation" …
Constitutional Law-Relation Of Federal And State Governments- Applicability Of State Minimum Price Regulations To Federal Procurement, Alexander E. Bennett
Constitutional Law-Relation Of Federal And State Governments- Applicability Of State Minimum Price Regulations To Federal Procurement, Alexander E. Bennett
Michigan Law Review
The United States accepted the lowest bids for the supply of milk at three military installations in California. Because these bids were below the minimum prices for wholesale milk prescribed by state law, California instituted proceedings in the state courts for civil damages and injunctive relief against the successful bidders. The United States brought a separate action in a federal district court asking that the state be enjoined from applying its minimum price regulations to milk purchases by the armed services on the grounds that the military installations were federal enclaves over which the United States has exclusive jurisdiction and …
Municipal Corporations-Master Plans-Power Of Cities To Zone For Future Conditions, Walter A. Urick
Municipal Corporations-Master Plans-Power Of Cities To Zone For Future Conditions, Walter A. Urick
Michigan Law Review
After purchasing land which was subject to a zoning ordinance requiring a minimum lot size of 21,780 square feet, plaintiffs, real estate developers, challenged the ordinance as unreasonable and confiscatory. Defendant city argued that the ordinance was based upon a comprehensive master plan and had the purpose of limiting future density of population in accordance with sewage capacity. On appeal from the circuit court order invalidating the zoning ordinance as applied to plaintiff's property, held, judgment affirmed, three judges dissenting. A city zoning ordinance requiring a minimum lot size for the purpose of limiting future density of population in …
Administrative Law -- 1962 Tennessee Survey, Val Sanford
Administrative Law -- 1962 Tennessee Survey, Val Sanford
Vanderbilt Law Review
The writing of this article is an experience in frustration and despair, for in Tennessee there is little recognition of the existence of any such body of principle, of legal concepts and techniques, of procedures and practice, as "administrative law." There is one law, substantive and procedural, for beer boards, another for the Public Service Commission, another for the rate-making decisions of the insurance commissioner, another for employment insurance benefits,another for licensing well-diggers, and so on ad infinitum--a separate law, both substantive and procedural, not only for each agency, but often for each function within an agency. All of these …

Local Government -- 1962 Tennessee Survey, Gilbert Merritt, Jr.
Local Government -- 1962 Tennessee Survey, Gilbert Merritt, Jr.
Vanderbilt Law Review
Local government cases usually make dry reading, but this year one unusual dispute gives some insight into the customs and court-house politics in one of Tennessee's smaller counties. The county judge and the county register of deeds (a lady) disagreed about office space in the courthouse. The county judge wanted to swap offices with the lady, but she refused. So after talking to the sheriff about it, the judge knocked holes in the lady's wall; whereupon she got an injunction. Judge Shriver, speaking for the court of appeals, said the sheriff could not give the judge permission to knock the …
The New Michigan Pre-Trial Procedural Rules-Models For Other States?, Robert Meisenholder
The New Michigan Pre-Trial Procedural Rules-Models For Other States?, Robert Meisenholder
Michigan Law Review
The new Michigan procedural laws are embodied in a revised set of statutes and court rules which became effective January 1, 1963, after a long period of study by a Joint Committee on Michigan Procedural Revision. They abolish an anachronistic distinction between procedures in law and equity, abrogate a scattered, disorganized set of rules and statutes, and create a unified, coherent procedural system.

Insurance-State Regulation-Surplus Line Insurance, James C. Lockwood S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff, a New York corporation doing business in Texas, purchased insurance covering risks located in Texas from insurers not licensed to do business in that state. The entire insurance transaction was consummated outside Texas, and any adjustment for losses was to be made outside the state. Pursuant to a Texas statute, plaintiff was taxed an amount equal to five percent of its gross premiums. Plaintiff instituted the present suit in a state court in Texas to recover the tax, which had been paid under protest. The trial court's decision for plaintiff was affirmed by the court of civil appeals, and …

Book Note, Law Review Staff
Vanderbilt Law Review
The book is divided into three major parts. Included in each of these parts are articles written by men who have studied these issues at length. Part I, "The People and Their State Government," deals with issues regarding an individuals relationship to his state--his protections against and his control over governing authorities. The second part, "The Representatives of the People," concerns itself with the established structure of state government and its effect on the quality of local leadership there under. Part III, entitled "The Powers of the State," explores the powers which are given and those denied to the state …
A Radical Restatement Of The Law Of Seller's Damages: Michigan Results Compared, Robert J. Harris
A Radical Restatement Of The Law Of Seller's Damages: Michigan Results Compared, Robert J. Harris
Michigan Law Review
Conventional doctrine does not address itself directly to the choice among valuation techniques, although the various parochial damage formulae give some clues. Underlying this series of articles is an assumption that the doctrine makes more sense when restated in valuation terms. These articles involve an effort to restate in such terms one sector of expectation damage law-the part that governs cases in which plaintiff is a "seller."
Zoning--Townships--Complete Exclusion Of Trailer Camps And Parks, Rolfe A. Worden S.Ed.
Zoning--Townships--Complete Exclusion Of Trailer Camps And Parks, Rolfe A. Worden S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff challenged the validity of an amendment to the zoning ordinance of the defendant township which barred all trailer camps and parks from its industrial district. As trailer parks had previously been zoned out of the business, residential, and agricultural districts, this amendment had the effect of completely excluding them from the entire township, although approximately half of its twenty-three square miles consisted of open rural area. The parties stipulated that the plans of the plaintiff, who wanted to develop a trailer park on his premises, met all of the applicable health standards. The trial court sustained the amendment, but …

Residency Requirements For Voting And The Tensions Of A Mobile Society, John R. Schmidhauser
Michigan Law Review

Vacation And Abandonment Of Streets And Highways In Ohio, John L. Grecol
Vacation And Abandonment Of Streets And Highways In Ohio, John L. Grecol
Cleveland State Law Review
Many long established thoroughfares are presently being abandoned and vacated to make way for the erection of urban redevelopment programs and the construction of freeway systems. Similarly, the application of scientific principles of traffic engineering to the modernization of existing thoroughfares eliminates jogged intersections and reduces sharp curves, frequently entailing vacation of the abandoned portions of such relocated roads. Resubdividing undeveloped tracts sometimes necessitates vacation of dedicated but unimproved streets in favor of revised thoroughfare plans. Modern fashion has rendered many alleys and courts obsolete and unnecessary. To avoid the expense of their maintenance both abutting owners and governmental subdivisions …

Territorial Courts And The Law: Unifying Factors In The Development Of American Legal Institutions-Pt.Ii-Influences Tending To Unify Territorial Law, William Wirt Blume, Elizabeth Gaspar Brown
Michigan Law Review
With the exception of Kentucky, Vermont, Texas, California, and West Virginia, all parts of continental United States south and west of the present boundaries of the original states came under colonial rule, and were governed from the national capital through territorial governments for varying periods of time. All territories in this area were "incorporated" in the sense that they were destined to become states of the United States. All became states by 1912, leaving only Alaska and Hawaii for future statehood. Now that these territories have become states, it seems desirable to review legal developments in all of these "incorporated" …

Constitutional Law-Relation Of State And Federal Governments-Application Of The Hatch Act To The Political Activity Of A State Official, Rolfe A. Worden S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff brought an action to set aside a determination of the United States Civil Service Commission that his political activities while Illinois State Director of Conservation were in violation of the Hatch Act. The district court held that such an application of the Hatch Act would infringe upon the plaintiff's vested rights, and would contravene the constitutional guarantee to the state of a republican form of government. On appeal, held, reversed. Application of the Hatch Act to state employees does not deprive them of any vested rights under the United States Constitution. Palmer v. United States Civil Sero. Comm'n …
