The Attorney General And The Charitable Trust Act - Wills, Contest And Construction, Dale R. Martin Jan 1965

The Attorney General And The Charitable Trust Act - Wills, Contest And Construction, Dale R. Martin

Cleveland State Law Review

In Ohio the Attorney General shall appear in any court or tribunal in which the state is interested. The common law interpretation of the duties of the Attorney General regarding charitable trusts in the state of Ohio has been supplanted by statutory law which is enumerated in Sections 109.23-109.33 of the Ohio Revised Code, often referred to as the Charitable Trusts Act.

Statutory Regulation Of Hypnosis, James T. Brennan Jan 1965

Statutory Regulation Of Hypnosis, James T. Brennan

Cleveland State Law Review

Hypnotism and state hypnotists caused quite a stir in the first quarter of the Twentieth Century. Several of the existing statutes on hypnotism were passed at that time. Then, for about a quarter of a century, hypnotism was legislatively forgotten. Recently, pressure groups in the form of hypnotic, psychological, psychiatric and medical societies have been lobbying for legislation prohibiting hypnotism by laymen. As the hypnotist vote isn't very large, the activities of these pressure groups have been ignored for the most part. Statutes on hypnotism generally seek either to regulate stage hypnotism, the hypnosis of minors, or medical use of …

Reapportionment In The Supreme Court And Congress: Constitutional Struggle For Fair Representation, Robert G. Dixon Jr. Dec 1964

Reapportionment In The Supreme Court And Congress: Constitutional Struggle For Fair Representation, Robert G. Dixon Jr.

Michigan Law Review

Fair representation is the ultimate goal. At the time of the Reapportionment Decisions, much change was overdue in some states, and at least some change was overdue in most states. We are a democratic people and our institutions presuppose according population a dominant role in formulas of representation. However, by its exclusive focus on bare numbers, the Court may have transformed one of the most intricate, fascinating, and elusive problems of democracy into a simple exercise of applying elementary arithmetic to census data. In so doing, the Court may have disabled itself from effectively considering the more subtle issues …

Some Comments On The Reapportionment Cases, Paul G. Kauper Dec 1964

Some Comments On The Reapportionment Cases, Paul G. Kauper

Michigan Law Review

Any appraisal of the Supreme Court's decisions in the legislative reapportionment cases must necessarily distinguish between the basic policy ingredients and social consequences of the decisions on the one hand, and the question whether the results were reached by a proper exercise of judicial power on the other. Respecting the first of these considerations, I have no difficulty identifying the social advantages accruing from these decisions. Because of the stress on the population principle, the decisions will afford a greater voice to urban interests, will make the legislative process more responsive to current needs of particular concern to urban dwellers, …

Congressional Apportionment: The Unproductive Search For Standards And Remedies, Michigan Law Review Dec 1964

Congressional Apportionment: The Unproductive Search For Standards And Remedies, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

The increasingly complex problems of elucidating congressional apportionment standards and granting appropriate relief when voting rights have been materially diluted were again brought to the fore in the recent districting decision of Calkins v. Hare. This federal district court decision is illustrative of the uncertainty caused by the Supreme Court's opinion in the landmark case of Wesberry v. Sanders. Although Wesberry resolved two previously contested issues by ruling that congressional apportionment disputes are susceptible of judicial determination and by setting a standard of population equality in delimiting districts, two associated questions were left unanswered. First, even though Wesberry …

The Powers Of The Michigan Civil Rights Commission, Roger C. Cramton Nov 1964

The Powers Of The Michigan Civil Rights Commission, Roger C. Cramton

Michigan Law Review

The thesis of this article is that the Attorney General has misread the language and actions of the constitution-makers. The Michigan Civil Rights Commission is an important and powerful agency of government which has substantial tasks to perform. But it does not possess the exclusive powers envisioned by the Attorney General. Other governmental units-the legislature, the executive, the courts, and the local governments-may continue to play a creative and positive role in fashioning a legal order that accords to every human being in society a reasonable opportunity to realize his potentialities.

Commercial Transactions And Personal Property--1963 Tennessee Survey, John A. Spanogle, Jr. Jun 1964

Commercial Transactions And Personal Property--1963 Tennessee Survey, John A. Spanogle, Jr.

Vanderbilt Law Review

Obviously, the biggest event in the Tennessee law of commercial transactions this year was the enactment of the Uniform Commercial Code [hereinafter referred to as the U.C.C.]. That statute became effective in this state on July 1, 1964. Its effect on the prior Tennessee law is discussed in great detail elsewhere in this issue,' and need not be re-examined here. It should also be pointed out that the enactment of the U.C.C.required some modifications in the criminal statutes relating to security agreements. In particular, executing a second security agreement covering personalty, without disclosing a prior security agreement covering the same …

Procedure -- 1963 Tennessee Survey, William I. Harbison

Vanderbilt Law Review

In two important decisions rendered during the survey period the Tennessee Supreme Court considered some of the aspects of joinder of actions under present circuit court practice. In the first of these, Necessary v. Gibson,' plaintiff joined a count for personal injuries resulting from defendants' alleged negligence with a count seeking recovery in contract based upon alleged promises of defendants to pay plaintiff for her injuries and expenses arising out of the same accident.

Tennessee Law And The Sales Article Of The Uniform Commercial Code, W. Harold Bigham Jun 1964

Tennessee Law And The Sales Article Of The Uniform Commercial Code, W. Harold Bigham

Vanderbilt Law Review

Although much of the interest engendered by the Uniform Commercial Code has centered around Article 9--Secured Transactions,and although Article 9 has been described as the heart of the Code, Article 2--Sales--is half again as long, is in many ways more iconoclastic,' and has precipitated perhaps more criticism than any of the other articles of the Code. Article 2 contains some innovations which are, at least upon initial impression, startling departures from traditional concepts of sales law, and it is therefore not surprising that there has been a spate of legal literature published on various aspects of this article. Since limitations …

Agency--1963 Tennessee Law, John S. Beasley, Ii Jun 1964

Agency--1963 Tennessee Law, John S. Beasley, Ii

Vanderbilt Law Review

The Union Carbide and Ferguson cases were suits to recover Tennessee sales taxes and use taxes paid under protest for 1956 and 1958. Carbide and Ferguson urged that since they were under contract to the Atomic Energy Commission, the legal incidence of the tax was on the United States directly and therefore invalid. Carbide had been secured in 1943 to manage and operate certain plants involved in work on the atomic bomb, and Ferguson had subsequently been engaged to build additional facilities for this purpose. Both contended that their relationship with the United States and the Atomic Energy Commission was …

Business Associations--1963 Tennessee Survey, Robert N. Covington

Vanderbilt Law Review

Section two of the act creating Tennessee's new Law Revision Commission charges that body with the duty to study and report to the next legislature on "the laws governing the organization and operation of corporations, partnerships and other forms of business and social endeavor." The study is now roughly a year old and is reportedly making good headway. Since much of our law of business organizations may therefore be changed in the near future, this Survey has been abbreviated as much as possible.

Conflict Of Laws--1963 Tennessee Survey, Elliott E. Cheatham Jun 1964

Conflict Of Laws--1963 Tennessee Survey, Elliott E. Cheatham

Vanderbilt Law Review

The most important development in conflict of laws for many years is the enactment of the conflict of laws provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code.' In adopting these provisions the General Assembly did much more than to fix the law for the specific matters covered, important though these are. The General Assembly rejected one widely urged method of choice of law, and it prescribed a wholly different one. It rejected the old vested rights theory which calls for the use of the law of the place of the last element of a transaction to govern the case, as, the place …

Investigation Of Unauthorized Practice Of Law By Omnibus Proceeding: The Ohio Method, Jerome M. Smith Jun 1964

Investigation Of Unauthorized Practice Of Law By Omnibus Proceeding: The Ohio Method, Jerome M. Smith

Michigan Law Review

The practice of law is impressed with a public interest. Whether by representation in a judicial proceeding or by advice on a legal problem, the lawyer renders professional service to the public. Preserving client confidences, assuring unquestioned loyalty, and rendering expert counsel are typical obligations of the legal profession. Another responsibility of lawyers is that of protecting the public from legal practice by unqualified laymen. Three areas of activity are involved in preventing unauthorized practice of law. Lawyers and public officials must define the practice of law/ investigate and prosecute unlicensed practitioners, and by judicial remedy prohibit further unauthorized practice. …
