The Illinois Appellate Courts-Are They Satisfactory? May 1929

The Illinois Appellate Courts-Are They Satisfactory?

Michigan Law Review

The instantaneous answer of "Yes" to this question was given by every Illinois attorney the writer asked while gathering material for this article, and undoubtedly that would be the answer of an overwhelming percentage of the Illinois Bar. In the Constitutional Convention of 1920 in Illinois, not one of the fifty odd lawyer members ever questioned their expediency in all the debates on the judiciary article. And much can, of course, be said in their favor. They relieve the supreme court of a great burden of work. They are closer at hand than the supreme court to most of the …

Municipal Corporations-Methods Of Detaching Outlying Districts Mar 1929

Municipal Corporations-Methods Of Detaching Outlying Districts

Michigan Law Review

Since the power to restrict boundaries is legislative in nature, territory which has once become part of an incorporated community can be detached only by the authority of a statute, and the corporation, the courts, and even the people are powerless to act unless so authorized. 1. DILLON, MUNCIPAL CORPORATIONS, 4th ed. sec. 356. But when the town is booming and each farmer sees himself swept into wealth by the subdivision and sale of his property, who worries about detaching land? It is only when the boom has passed and the farmer finds himself still engaged in agriculture, and burdened …


The Status Of A Municipal Corporation Organized Under An Unconstitutional Statute, Oliver P. Field Mar 1929

The Status Of A Municipal Corporation Organized Under An Unconstitutional Statute, Oliver P. Field

Michigan Law Review

A municipal corporation has governmental as well as proprietary functions to perform. It differs from a private corporation in that its primary functions are governmental. Municipal corporations are usually spoken of as legal persons, or entities, in the same sense that private corporations are, but in studying them it must always be borne in mind that the main purpose for which most of them are created is that they may perform certain governmental functions.

The Law School And The State, William W. Cook Jun 1928

The Law School And The State, William W. Cook

Michigan Law Review

On the legal profession rests the responsibility for the future of America. Now here else does the necessary leadership exist, and leadership, based on training, character and intelligence, will determine the future of the republic. The rapid rise of America to the primacy of the world; its vast wealth, power and population; its problems of capital and labor; its expansion of governmental functions; its diversity of races; its determination to preserve American institutions-all demand leadership of the highest order, and that can be found only in the legal profession. It is a problem of the ages. From Plato's Republic to …


Due Process Of Law In State Labor Legislation, Fowler Vincent Harper Jun 1928

Due Process Of Law In State Labor Legislation, Fowler Vincent Harper

Michigan Law Review

With this material in mind, is it possible to arrive at any useful conclusions as to what constitutes due process of law in labor legislation? In each group of cases, there seem to be two distinct, though inseparable functions of the judicial process of reviewing the legislation in question. The courts, in brief, are arriving at conclusions both of fact and of law. The impression was, at one time prevalent that the extent of review of certain types of labor legislation was limited to the reasonableness of the' statute as respects the end sought and the means of attaining that …


Due Process Of Law In State Labor Legislation, Fowler Vincent Harper May 1928

Due Process Of Law In State Labor Legislation, Fowler Vincent Harper

Michigan Law Review

State interference with conditions of employment, as determined by the strength of the contracting parties, by imposing requirements calculated to protect the safety and health of employees, has not been without interruption from the courts. In the earlier cases, when organized labor was not strong enough to enforce the most reasonable demands without assistance from the legislature, the courts were wont to look with astute eye upon the infringement of liberty of contract thus resulting. When the reasoning started with the assumption that liberty of contract was the rule and the employment of the police power of the State the …

Due Process Of Law In State Labor Legislation, Fowler Vincent Harper Apr 1928

Due Process Of Law In State Labor Legislation, Fowler Vincent Harper

Michigan Law Review

Any regulation on the part of the state of the relations between the laborer and his employer must necessarily deprive the one or the other of his liberty or property, by interfering with his freedom to contract. The protection of freedom of contract which the Constitution affords is not, however, an absolute right. There is nothing necessarily unconstitutional about such legislation unless it is "without due process of law." In other words, legislation of this kind is usually a valid regulation if it can be justified as coming within the due process of law provision.
