Newspaper Coverage
Reports how the Court is hearing Terry v. Ohio along with 3 others cases with stop-and-frisk issues. The Court will explore:
How much right does a policeman have to stop and question a suspicious person he has no legal reason to arrest?

67/11/17 Brief Of Americans For Effective Law Enforcement, As Amicus Curiae, James R. Thompson
United States Supreme Court
"Despite the evidence which has been found of cases in which some police have abused field interrogation in some instances - evidence upon which the amicus relies so heavily - the President's Commission on Law Enforcement and Administration of Justice unanimously recommends its adoption and use :
"The Commission believes that there is a definite need to authorize the police to stop suspects and possible witnesses of major crimes, to detain them for brief questioning if they will not voluntarily cooperate, and to search such suspects for dangerous weapons when such precaution is necessary."
This Amicus Curiae requests that the …

What Constitutes An Assault, William H. Erickson
What Constitutes An Assault, William H. Erickson
Cleveland State Law Review
Assault, as it has been judicially defined, finds its basis in the protection against the apprehension of receiving harmful or offensive contact. It is the threshold for the more serious tort of battery, the actual contact with the person of the plaintiff. The law of assault has been developing over hundreds of years and will continue to do so. Of key importance to the tort, and the one factor more than any other which differentiates the tort of assault from other forms of intentional wrongdoing, is the element of apprehension in the mind of the victim. Without the awareness by …

Police Liability For False Arrest Or Imprisonment, John M. Manos
Police Liability For False Arrest Or Imprisonment, John M. Manos
Cleveland State Law Review
It is difficult to arrive at a valid distinction between false arrest and false imprisonment. The two causes of action are practically indistinguishable. When there is a false arrest there is a false imprisonment, but in a false arrest detention is based on asserted legal authority to enforce the processes of the law. A false imprisonment can arise between private persons for a private end with no relevance to the administration of criminal law. Our primary concern here, of course, is solely with a detention under color of law. This article purports to describe the various situations in which an …
Real Property Tax Exemptions Of Non-Profit Organizations, Robert T. Bennett
Real Property Tax Exemptions Of Non-Profit Organizations, Robert T. Bennett
Cleveland State Law Review
Although much has been written about non-profit organizations in the area of state and local taxation, very little has been written as to tax exemptions granted to these same organizations. This only indicates that the law on this subject is not well developed and remains a source of constant litigation. This situation appears to exist for several reasons. Each state has its own tax statutes with its own definitions and interpretations, and litigation can usually be resolved by referring only to the particular state constitution involved or the Constitution of the United States.
Negligent Operation Of A Police Vehicle, Harvey S. Morrison
Negligent Operation Of A Police Vehicle, Harvey S. Morrison
Cleveland State Law Review
As a general rule a police officer on an emergency call is required to exercise the care which a reasonable, prudent man would exercise in the discharge of official duties of a like nature under like circumstances. Comparing this standard of care to that required of a civilian driver, one finds not that a lesser degree of care is required of the police officer but that the care exercised must be commensurate with the circumstances. The ordinary driver under ordinary circumstances uniformly has the duty to exercise ordinary care toward other travelers to avoid injury or property damage. The police …
Statutes Of Limitations And Undiscovered Malpractice, Stanley Sacks
Statutes Of Limitations And Undiscovered Malpractice, Stanley Sacks
Cleveland State Law Review
A number of general legal problems have arisen out of malpractice actions and applicable statutes of limitations. Thus, the fact that there is a choice as to which event starts limitations running against the malpractice actions, either the physician's wrongful act or omission, or when such act or omission resulted in injury, is as naturally susceptible of varying judicial interpretation as the myriad of other legal situations. The situation that too often fosters injustice and thereby demands immediate and appropriate action, whether legislative or judicial, is that predicament where the wrongful act of a medical practitioner results in injury, but …

Battery In Medical Torts, Don S. Smith
Battery In Medical Torts, Don S. Smith
Cleveland State Law Review
The purpose of this paper is not so much to explore when and under what circumstances a battery takes place but to deal with the problems which the classification itself creates. These include questions of the applicability of special malpractice statutes of limitation, whether an action can be maintained under the Federal Tort Claims Act, coverage under malpractice insurance policies, causation and damages, and the requirement of expert medical testimony to provide a standard against which the conduct of the defendant may be measured.
Acting In Loco Parentis As A Defense To Assault And Battery, Norman D. Tripp
Acting In Loco Parentis As A Defense To Assault And Battery, Norman D. Tripp
Cleveland State Law Review
An offer to use force to the injury of another is an assault, and the use of that force is a battery, which usually includes an assault. An assault and battery upon the person of another may be a criminal act. Courts generally hold, however, that a parent or one in loco parentis may inflict disciplinary corporal punishment upon a child without becoming criminally liable.
Corporation Executive Committees, Nancy F. Halliday
Corporation Executive Committees, Nancy F. Halliday
Cleveland State Law Review
Soon after it had been determined by the courts that management functions could be delegated by corporation boards of directors, it became a frequent practice in business and nonprofit corporations to delegate these functions to a small, active group of directors, known as the executive committee. Boards of directors cannot be expected to be in session continually, and certainly the affairs of a corporation require constant supervision by some directing body. This paper is particularly concerned with consideration of the extent to which the managerial function of the board of directors can be properly delegated to an executive committee.
Title Insurance Aspects Of Tort Liability, Dean T. Lemley
Title Insurance Aspects Of Tort Liability, Dean T. Lemley
Cleveland State Law Review
By reason of the adequate damages recoverable in contract by the insured, and because of safeguards of ethics and efficient methods of title examinations, underwriting practices, and sophisticated systems of document storage and retrieval, it would appear that tort liability will not become prevalent in the title industry. Since law is disposed to follow the needs of society, rather than to anticipate them, it seems logical that actions in tort liability will not be needed.
Unreasonable Accumulation Of Income By Foundations, Joel H. Feld
Unreasonable Accumulation Of Income By Foundations, Joel H. Feld
Cleveland State Law Review
Unreasonable accumulation of income was and still is one of the the common abuses found in some foundations. Prior to 1950 the Internal Revenue Service challenged foundation exemption by stating that unreasonable accumulations of income were evidence that the foundation was not organized for, or carrying out, a charitable purpose. The courts were reluctant to follow this theory, and gave the law a liberal interpretation in favor of the foundations. It was not until 1950 that Congress enacted Section 3814 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1939. The law is the same today in the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, …
Constitutional Rights In Juvenile Court, Joseph L. Rubin
Constitutional Rights In Juvenile Court, Joseph L. Rubin
Cleveland State Law Review
On June 20, 1966, the United States Supreme Court noted that it had probable jurisdiction in the case of In Re Gault. Ten months and three weeks later, the Supreme Court reached a landmark decision on judicial handling of juvenile delinquency matters. On May 15, 1967, the court handed down a ruling that many of the constitutional procedural protections previously observed only in adult trials are also applicable to children in juvenile court proceedings. This decision portends a major change in the manner in which most of the nation's three thousand juvenile courts have been functioning. The significance of this …
Avoidance Of P.I. Releases For Mutual Mistake: Recent Cases, Franklin Stafford Wearn Ii
Avoidance Of P.I. Releases For Mutual Mistake: Recent Cases, Franklin Stafford Wearn Ii
Cleveland State Law Review
The purpose of this article is to determine the factors which currently persuade courts to set aside releases under the doctrine of mutual mistake. Therefore, cases involving fraud, misrepresentation, overreaching, or unilateral mistake are outside the scope, except as they shed light on the doctrine's application. We shall consider first those cases where there is thought to be no personal injury at the time of releasing, and then those where some personal injury is known, but where it could be said that there exists a material unknown injury. Let it be noted that, as will be shown, if the releasor …
