Family Law 1961 Survey Of New York Law: Part Four: Torts And Family Law, Roger J. Goebel, Arthur W. Rashap

Faculty Scholarship

Legislation designed to enable prompt judicial supervision of private adoptions was the most significant advance in domestic relations law this year. The legislature also subjected the contracts and earnings of infants engaged in professional activities to judicial control. Notable Court of Appeals decisions granted an annulment for constructive abandonment through refusal of sexual relations, denied an injunction against divorce proceedings in a foreign nation, and refused to abrogate the old rule against actions in tort by a child against his parent. Probably the most notorious case of the year was the action for debauchery brought by an eighteen-year-old plaintiff against …


Reconstructing The Roman Law Of Real Security , Roger J. Goebel Jan 1961

Reconstructing The Roman Law Of Real Security , Roger J. Goebel

Faculty Scholarship

The essential idea of real security is that the debtor transfer to the creditor a possessory interest in a specific item or aggregate of property, chattel or realty, to serve as security for the loan. There are four possible generic types: (1) the debtor vests both ownership and possession of the property in the creditor, subject to a personal obligation to reconvey on repayment; (2) the debtor vests ownership in the creditor, but retains possession of the property by leave of the creditor; (3) the debtor retains ownership of the property, but grants possession irrevocably to the creditor until repayment …

Incorporation By Reference And Independent Legal Significance In The New York Law Of Wills Jan 1960

Incorporation By Reference And Independent Legal Significance In The New York Law Of Wills

Fordham Law Review

In the substantive law of wills two theories of law are traditionally relied upon to permit consideration of extrinsic documents in the construction or expansion of a will. These two theories are the common law doctrines of incorporation by reference and independent legal significance. It is the purpose of this comment to analyze these theories of law in a dual aspect, first, to define the doctrines, applying them to their logical legal conclusions, and second, to assess the validity of various writings under existing New York law.


Towards A World Rule Of Law-Customary International Law In American Courts, Alan Schechter Jan 1960

Towards A World Rule Of Law-Customary International Law In American Courts, Alan Schechter

Fordham Law Review

A major factor in the development of a world rule of law is the attitude of municipal courts toward questions possibly involving international customary law. Mr. Schechter reviews the practice of American federal and state courts since the end of World War II, concentrating on the types of evidence considered to establish the existence of customary rules.


Federal Protection Of Employee Rights Within Trade Unions, Richard A. Givens Jan 1960

Federal Protection Of Employee Rights Within Trade Unions, Richard A. Givens

Fordham Law Review

The "Bill of Rights" provision of the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959 are designed to guarantee and protect employee representation in industrial government. The author, pointing to the method of Mr. Chief Justice Stone in Steele v. Louisville & N.R.R., suggests that the act's purpose may be advanced by an interpretation guided by the consitutional precedents applicable to public government.


Migratory Alimony: A Constitutional Dilemma In The Exercise Of In Personam Jurisdiction, Wilfred J. Ritz Jan 1960

Migratory Alimony: A Constitutional Dilemma In The Exercise Of In Personam Jurisdiction, Wilfred J. Ritz

Fordham Law Review

Obstacles to obtaining binding determinations of domicile often block the personal jurisdiction required for alimony adjudication. A way out of the impasse, Professor Ritz argues, is offered by the mechanism of removing cases to federal courts under the constitutional grant of federal jurisdiction based on diversity of citizenship.


Nonresident Personal Income Tax: A Comparative Study In Eight States, Michael B. Solomon Jan 1960

Nonresident Personal Income Tax: A Comparative Study In Eight States, Michael B. Solomon

Fordham Law Review

A majority of the states tax the income of nonresidents. The vexing question today is how the states should strike the balance between the ever-increasing need for revenue and the demand by nonresidents for fair treatment. Mr. Solomon examines the methods eight states have employed or proposed in striking this balance.


Rent Determination And Its Tax Treatment, Lester R. Rusoff Jan 1960

Rent Determination And Its Tax Treatment, Lester R. Rusoff

Fordham Law Review

Payments between stockholders and corporations and by lessees to third persons, leases with options to buy and leaseback arrangements involve possibilities of tax avoidance. Professor Rusoff examines the relevance of the substance over form, step-transaction and business purpose doctrines to these and other situations.


The Rights Of A Witness Before A Congressional Committee Jan 1960

The Rights Of A Witness Before A Congressional Committee

Fordham Law Review

It is unquestionably the duty of all citizens to cooperate with the Congress in its efforts to obtain the facts needed for intelligent legislative action. It is their unremitting obligation to respond to subpoenas, to respect the dignity of the Congress and its committees and to testify fully with respect to matters within the province of proper investigation. This ... assumes that the ... rights of witnesses will be respected by the Congress as they are in a court of justice.

Family Law 1960 Survey Of New York Law: Part Four--Torts And Family Law, Roger J. Goebel

Faculty Scholarship

This year was one of quiet evolution rather than of substantial progress in the area of family law. The event having the greatest effect on the average citizen was undoubtedly the raising of the marriage license fee in New York City to three dollars. The most noteworthy of the other minor legislative changes were an egalitarian enactment forbidding wives from contracting to abrogate their duty of support of incapacitated husbands and an authorization of resident parole centers for paroled juvenile delinquents whose home life is inadequate .
