Energy Contract Planning: Allocating The Risks And Consequences Of Commercial Impracticability, Norman R. Prance Jan 1980

Energy Contract Planning: Allocating The Risks And Consequences Of Commercial Impracticability, Norman R. Prance

UC Law SF International Law Review

Increasing energy shortages and resulting disruptions in energy supplies demand that supply contracts provide for contingencies that may render performance commercially impracticable. Proceeding upon the assumption that energy contracts are within Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code, the author examines Section 2-615, which deals with commercial impracticability. Concluding that Section 2-615 alone may inadequately express the intentions of the parties to the contract and that Section 2-615 may be amended or supplanted by contractual clauses, the author proposes contractual provisions that improve upon the treatment of commercial impracticability in Section 2-615.

Energy And The North American Community: Canada, Mexico, And The United States, Mark S. Adams, Barry Steiner

UC Law SF International Law Review

This paper presents a discussion of the need for and the possible forms of the North American Community. It begins with a discussion of the value of such an organization in terms of the existing relationship among the North American countries. The second section discusses the goals of the Community. The paper concludes with an analysis of two possible forms for the organization and rejects a common market for economic, political, and legal reasons. Instead, the paper offers the idea of cooperative organization, one which stresses equality and unanimity, as the most appropriate form for the North American Community.

Terrorist Acts--Criminal Or Political Infractions--An Appraisal Of Recent French Extradition Cases, Thomas E. Carbonneau Jan 1980

Terrorist Acts--Criminal Or Political Infractions--An Appraisal Of Recent French Extradition Cases, Thomas E. Carbonneau

UC Law SF International Law Review

Extradition of transnational terrorists is a legal method of dealing with the dilemma of terrorism. A typical extradition treaty contains, however, a "political offense" exception under which the request for the extradition of an individual will be denied when the crime with which he is charged constitutes a "political offense." The judicial offense recognizes that terrorist crimes are outside the purview of the political offense exception. This article examines the development of French jurisprudence on the extradition of transnational terrorists, focusing upon whether terrorist acts can be considered as political offenses and thus exempt from extradition.

Fixed Price Preemptive Rights In California: The Quality Of Mercer Is Strained, Phil Miller Jan 1980

Fixed Price Preemptive Rights In California: The Quality Of Mercer Is Strained, Phil Miller

UC Law Journal

The author explores a conflict in California law pertaining to the validity of fixed price preemptive rights as they apply to the disposition of real property. After analyzing California and other jurisdictions' decisional law concerning fixed price preemptive rights, the author proposes that courts considering the validity of such rights in the future pay special attention to the parity of the parties' bargaining power and the presence of special nonmonetary consideration supporting any proposed fixed price preemptive agreement. The author suggests that, by considering these factors, courts will be better able to distinguish between acceptable fixed price preemptive rights and …

Conflicting Approaches To The Scope Of Mandatory Bargaining In Public University Faculty Employment: Central Michigan University Faculty Association V. Central Michigan University, Steven P. Howarth Jan 1980

Conflicting Approaches To The Scope Of Mandatory Bargaining In Public University Faculty Employment: Central Michigan University Faculty Association V. Central Michigan University, Steven P. Howarth

UC Law Journal

In the recent CMU decision, the Michigan Supreme Court advanced its solution to a vexatious question facing courts today-defining the scope of negotiations for public university faculty collective bargaining. By applying a standard which reflects the private sector concept of an employer's bargaining obligation, the court has compelled public universities to bargain over subjects which may greatly affect academic policy. This Note concludes that the CMU solution is inappropriate and unwise for public higher education, and recommends an approach which balances the faculty employment aspects of a negotiation topic with its educational policy implications before including it within the university's …

C & K Engineering Contractors V. Amber Steel Co.: Promissory Estoppel And The Right To Trial By Jury In California, Gary Shapiro

UC Law Journal

The Note examines the current status of the right to trial by jury in California and sides with the C&K dissent in arguing that under the California …
