Review Of Pre-Trial, By H. D. Nimis, John W. Reed
Review Of Pre-Trial, By H. D. Nimis, John W. Reed
Reviews
Mr. Nims has undertaken to catalog the pre-trial procedures currently in use in state and federal courts and administrative agencies. Apparently, he asked judges in nearly every jurisdiction for statements of their views and practices, and there is here set forth a summary of, and many excerpts from, their replies. The book contains also an eighty-five page analysis of the reported decisions involving pre-trial questions, an extensive appendix, which includes minutes of pre-trial hearings and specimens of orders, and an exhaustive bibliography.

Review Of Successful Tax Practice, By H. C. Bickford, John W. Reed
Review Of Successful Tax Practice, By H. C. Bickford, John W. Reed
Reviews
For some years now, those who came to the bar before federal taxes attained importance have been lamenting their unfamiliarity with the field and the consequent loss of clientele. Not a few clients have joined in the lament, often upon the stimulus of an unexpected and unnecessary tax bill. The bar is aware of the problem, and its attempts to meet it have ranged all the way from tax institutes for interested lawyers to cart-before-the-horse attempts to exclude non-lawyers from practice in the tax field. I suggest that Mr. Bickford's readable book is one of the most promising answers to …
An Inquiry Concerning The Functions Of Procedure In Legal Education, Edson R. Sunderland
An Inquiry Concerning The Functions Of Procedure In Legal Education, Edson R. Sunderland
Other Publications
Procedure has always been the bete noire of the law school teacher. No other subject has developed such divergent opinions or such endless debates. None recurs with such periodic frequency and in no field of legal pedagogy has discussion seemed so barren of results. Three different general sessions of the Association of American Law Schools during the last ten years have been devoted largely or wholly to the subject of teaching procedure, and yet no substantial progress seems to have been made toward a standardized scheme of treatment. Individual teachers and schools have their individual views and policies, and they …

Admission To The Bar, Edwin C. Goddard
Admission To The Bar, Edwin C. Goddard
Articles
This article is written in the belief that the hour is here when some changes in admissions to the bar should be urged and urged again, when some things often thought and discussed in certain assemblies should be openly and frankly talked over with the profession at large.
Logic V Common Sense In Pleading, Nathan Isaacs
Logic V Common Sense In Pleading, Nathan Isaacs
Michigan Law Review
Michigan's experiment in pleading--or the suppression of pleading-is being carefully watched throughout the country. Not that it is likely that many other states will go to the extreme, for it is an extreme, of substituting notice-pleading for essential-fact-pleading: but it is a fact that even the code states are experiencing a reaction in that general direction. It will probably lead to a multiplication of their "short forms," rather than to a sweeping provision that
The Bar Examination - Its Proper Time And Length, Edwin C. Goddard
The Bar Examination - Its Proper Time And Length, Edwin C. Goddard
Other Publications
IN our day and countery the bar examiner is the St. Peter of the legal heaven. He to whom the legal St. Peter openeth not must go below and live without the legal brotherhood. It was not always so. Not so long ago the admission gate (or bar) was kept by any member of the bench. This meant it was not kept at all, for no one was denied admission, and there is still at least one of the states of our Union where every voter of the state of good moral character has the constitutional right to admission as …
What Is The Outlook For The Lawyer?, Henry M. Bates
What Is The Outlook For The Lawyer?, Henry M. Bates
Articles
This is a question which is being asked with frequency and painful anxiety all over the country by young men expecting to go to the bar and by many who have only recently been admitted. To the veterna practitioner at the bar it may seem presumptuous that devoting his entire time and energy to law school work should undertake any sort of answer to the question thus propounded. Nevertheless, I venture to say the opportunities for studying and estimating the conditions and factors which must be taken into account in reaching and answer are in some respects quite good for …
Defects In Our Legal System, Henry M. Bates
Defects In Our Legal System, Henry M. Bates
Articles
That the practice of law and the administration of justice are under a fire of popular distrust and criticism of extraordinary intensity requires no proof. A fact of which there is evidence in numerous contemporary books, in almost every magazine, in the daily papers, in the remarks, or the questions, or it may be in the sneers, of one's friends, requires no further demonstration. The only questions of importance to be answered are to what extent this criticism and this distrust are well founded, what are the remedies for such defects as exist, and how and by whom should they …
Teaching Of Practice And Procedure In Law Schools, Edson R. Sunderland
Teaching Of Practice And Procedure In Law Schools, Edson R. Sunderland
Michigan Law Review
Criticism of the law, the courts, and the legal profession is one of the popular customs of the day. So constantly and so insistently are we told of the shortcomings of the Bench and Bar that it is hard to hold one's footing against the sweep of the current. One might well suppose from all the clamor that the ancient respectability of the law had suddenly been discovered to be a monstrous pretense, a fraud on the innocence and trustfulness of the people, a cloak for injustice and a mask for oppression.
The Teaching Of Practice And Procedure In Law Schools, Edson R. Sunderland
The Teaching Of Practice And Procedure In Law Schools, Edson R. Sunderland
Articles
Procedure is merely the means of co-ordinating effort, of harmonizing differences, of offering every one equality of opportunity in offense and defense before the law. Without it there would be confusion, favoritism, and injustice. If the subject were viewed in this fundamental way, and were studied conscientiously as an incident and aid to the development and determination of the merits of controversies, the criticisms now so fiercely directed against it would largely disappear. In its use it is indispensable, in its abuse only does it cause trouble. A professional conscience to curb that abuse, and professional learning and skill to …
The Art Of Legal Practice, Edson R. Sunderland
The Art Of Legal Practice, Edson R. Sunderland
Articles
In one respect the law is the most perplexing subject with which a man can deal. It shifts and changes so rapidly that only a nimble and diligent student can keep abreast of it. One is likely to wake up any morning and find that the legislature has repealed a good part of what he knows, and he is in constant danger of having his most carefully formed opinions completely upset by a new decision of the Supreme Court. These violent changes are not due to any new discoveries, such as constantly enliven the scientific world, but merely to the …
