Unreported Michigan Supreme Court Opinions, 1836-1843, Clark F. Norton Aug 1943

Unreported Michigan Supreme Court Opinions, 1836-1843, Clark F. Norton

Michigan Law Review

It is a commonly known fact that, although Michigan was admitted to the Union in 1837 (many of her citizens had claimed statehood for more than a year prior to her formal admission), few opinions of the state supreme court written before 1843 have ever been published. Why a period of almost ten years should have elapsed before the first volume of state reports was issued in 1846 ( with the exception of two volumes of chancery reports), or why the early reporters seem, from a casual examination, to have neglected decisions of the court before 1843, or what happened …


Constitutional Law - Due Process Limitations On Statutes Regulating Extrastate Contracts, Michigan Law Review Aug 1943

Constitutional Law - Due Process Limitations On Statutes Regulating Extrastate Contracts, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

Plaintiffs, reciprocal insurance associations which insure against fire and related risks, and whose attorneys-in-fact are located in Illinois, brought a declaratory judgment action in New York state courts for a determination of the applicability to them of the New York law requiring that such co-operative insurance associations obtain a license, or be prohibited from doing "any act which effects, aids or promotes the doing of an insurance business" in New York. As a condition of the license, submission to the New York regulations is required. The activities of the associations within the state of New York include investigation by engineers …

Suggested Changes In State Of Washington Laws Regulating County Accounting, Arthur N. Lorig, James S. Schindler Jul 1943

Suggested Changes In State Of Washington Laws Regulating County Accounting, Arthur N. Lorig, James S. Schindler

Washington Law Review

At the 1943 regular session of the legislature of the State of Washington, Senate Bill No. 47 was passed creating a County Codification Committee charged with the duty of preparing a compilation of all of the constitutional and statutory provisions with respect to counties and county officers. The Committee is also required to prepare recommendations for revisions, amendments and additions which it feels should be made to the existing statutory provisions, the recommendations to be embodied in a proposed county code to be submitted to the 1945 legislature. It seems appropriate, therefore, to call attention at this time to some …

The Bones Of Haddock V. Haddock, Harold Wright Holt Jun 1943

The Bones Of Haddock V. Haddock, Harold Wright Holt

Michigan Law Review

It would not be fitting to say in the language of the stage that Williams v. North Carolina has drawn the curtain on Haddock v. Haddock. Rather we will shift the metaphor to say that the recent case from North Carolina has largely stripped the flesh from the earlier decision. Yet the bones of Haddock v. Haddock remain unbleached and unpulverized. Just as persons with mechanical turn of mind may frame from blocks of wood puzzles of readjustment and resetting, so courts in states that do not favor free and easy termination of marriage may still find in the …


Executors And Administrators-Right Of Creditors Of A Decedent To Recover From Distributees After The Estate Is Closed Apr 1943

Executors And Administrators-Right Of Creditors Of A Decedent To Recover From Distributees After The Estate Is Closed

Michigan Law Review

A recent California decision suggests a problem of some difficulty in the administration of decedents' estates. In Dabney V. Dabney, it appeared that a decedent had, in his lifetime, contracted to pay the plaintiff $100 and $350 respectively, monthly, as long as plaintiff should live, according to the terms of two contracts. In distributing the estate the court, as provided in the California Probate Code, had set aside a sum of money for the purpose of paying these monthly installments. The estate was then distributed, defendant herein being the principal distributee. On February 17, 1941, there remained only $216 …


Corporations - Foreign Corporations - Effect Of Complying With Domestication Statute, E. George Rudolph Apr 1943

Corporations - Foreign Corporations - Effect Of Complying With Domestication Statute, E. George Rudolph

Michigan Law Review

Decedent was a resident of Nebraska and all his property was located there. By his will he left the residue of his estate to a number of charitable institutions including the Topeka Branch of the Women's Foreign Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church, a corporation incorporated in Kansas. The Topeka Branch claimed exemption from the Nebraska inheritance tax because it was a domestic charitable corporation, having complied with the Nebraska statute providing, "Any corporation organized under the laws of any other state . . . which has filed . . . with the secretary of state of this state, …


Deeds - Effect Of Noncompliance With Statute Requiring Grantor To Set Forth In Deed Name Under Which He Derived Title, Mary Jane Morris Apr 1943

Deeds - Effect Of Noncompliance With Statute Requiring Grantor To Set Forth In Deed Name Under Which He Derived Title, Mary Jane Morris

Michigan Law Review

In a suit between plaintiff and defendant Girola Bros., plaintiff obtained a judgment and levied upon certain property. Plaintiff purchased the land at an execution sale and recorded the sheriff's deed conveying the property to him. Prior to the commencement of the action, defendant Girola Bros. had changed its name to Madalay, Inc., and under the latter name had conveyed the property, subsequently levied on by plaintiff, to defendant M. Girola, pending the action by plaintiff. This deed was recorded. It set forth Madalay, Inc., as grantor, but failed to set forth the name in which Madalay, Inc., derived title …


Commissioner Benjamin's Report On Administrative Adjudication In New York, Gilbert H. Montague Feb 1943

Commissioner Benjamin's Report On Administrative Adjudication In New York, Gilbert H. Montague

Michigan Law Review

In his annual message to the New York Legislature in January, 1939, after recalling that at the 1938 election the people had rejected a proposal that would "freeze into the Constitution a rigid procedure" for "the judicial review of the facts as well as of the law of virtually all decisions of administrative officers and agencies," Governor Lehman announced: "Modification of procedure, if needed, should be undertaken only after careful study of each administrative process on an individual basis. As part of my plan always to improve and perfect the administrative branch of government, intend to appoint a commissioner under …
