The Permissibility Of Comment On The Defendant's Failure To Testify In His Own Behalf In Criminal Proceedings, Leslie H. Dills
The Permissibility Of Comment On The Defendant's Failure To Testify In His Own Behalf In Criminal Proceedings, Leslie H. Dills
Washington Law Review
When the question as to whether or not a prosecuting attorney should be permitted to comment on the failure of the accused in a criminal action to testify in his own behalf first arose in the state of Washington, the Supreme Court rested its decision denying the right to make such comment on a statute. The abrogation of this statute by the Supreme Court under its rule-making power, leaves this question of vital importance in criminal practice open and undecided in this State.

Admissibility In Federal Courts Of Evidence Wrongfully Obtained By Persons Other Than Federal Officers Or By Cooperation Between Such Persons And Federal Officers, Marion A. Marquis
Admissibility In Federal Courts Of Evidence Wrongfully Obtained By Persons Other Than Federal Officers Or By Cooperation Between Such Persons And Federal Officers, Marion A. Marquis
Washington Law Review
It is a firmly established rule in the federal courts, that evidence obtained by an illegal search and seizure, within the purview of the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, is not admissible providing timely steps are taken for its exclusion or return. However, that rule is limited in its application to federal officers or agents, so that quite generally it may be said, that evidence obtained by private,mdividuals or municipal or state officers, acting as such, is admissible in federal courts, regardless of the manner in which it is obtained.

Death As Affecting Officers And Agencies, Paul P. Ashley
Death As Affecting Officers And Agencies, Paul P. Ashley
Washington Law Review
Behind the law of offer and acceptance runs the theory, though in truth it is but a fiction, that contractual agreement is predicated upon a literal meeting of the minds of the contracting parties. Sine a dead mind cannot agree, it has with logic inevitably followed that an offer is eo instanti revoked upon the death of the offeror.

Time Of Entry Of Interlocutory Decree Of Divorce As Affecting Date Of Final Decree, F. C. Hackman
Washington Law Review
The neglect of parties to divorce suits to file the interlocutory decree in their respective suit on the day of rendition or promptly, and, in order to remedy such omission, the procuring at some subsequent time of the entry of the interlocutory decree nue pro tune as of the date of rendition, the entry of final decrees on the last day of the period of six months which must elapse before a final decree may be lawfully entered, are practices of omission or commission common enough, and which so vitally concern the status of the parties interested, as to deserve …

The American Law Institute, Emmett N. Parker
Washington Law Review
At the 1914 meeting of the Association of American Law Schools held at Chicago, some papers were read and discussion had evidencing a conviction on the part of those present that the volume, complexity and uncertainty of the unwritten or common law in the United States had become such that there should be set on foot a movement looking to the establishment of some permanent organization having for its object the clarification of our unwritten or common law by way of restatement in a simplified, direct and orderly form. The World War checked the progress of this movement, though it …

The American Bar Association: Its Organization, History And Achievements, W. Thomas Kemp, Joseph R. Taylor
Washington Law Review
The American Bar Association holds its fifty-first annual meeting in Seattle, Washington, July 25, 26, 27, 1928. This is the Semi-Centennial meeting of the Association and special preparations are being made to make the occasion notable, and it is therefore appropriate that the whole bar of Washington who have so courteously invited the National Association to Seattle this year, should know something about the organization, history and achievements of the largest and one of the oldest organizations of lawyers in the world. A considerable portion of the bar of Washington are already members of the National Association, and to them …
