The Legislative Process In Georgia Local Government Law, R. Perry Sentell Jr.

Scholarly Works

What our city fathers do as legislators and how they do it impinges upon the daily lives of most of us. Those involved in the production of municipal law and those affected by it will find this study of legislative procedure at the local level of great interest and help. Here is a solid piece of research which will stand for a long time to come.

Some Aspects Of The Lmrda Reporting Requirements, J. Ralph Beaird

Scholarly Works

Collective bargaining became the keystone of our national labor policy with the passage of the Wagner Act in 1935. The central role of this procedure was preserved in the Taft-Hartley and Landrum-Griffin Acts. By choosing collective bargaining as the principal instrument of labor market control, Congress sought to remove sources of industrial strife by a method which preserved private determination free from either unchecked employer power or smothering governmental control. Landrum-Griffin was supplementary legislation designed to eliminate or prevent practices which distorted and defeated the collective bargaining policy of the Labor-Management Relations Act. This statutory scheme has now been in …

Improving Georgia's Probate Code, Verner F. Chaffin

Scholarly Works

No one would deny that our laws should provide an efficient and rational system for the transmission of wealth, whether by intestacy or under the terms of a will. The purpose of this article is to suggest several specific reforms and to attempt to explain why they should be made. No effort is made to enumerate all the troublesome areas. The changes recommended are not definitive or comprehensive, but are simply illustrative of matters that a complete study would bring to light. Total agreement with the writer's conclusions would be undesirable and certainly unexpected.

The Original Meaning Of Pauperies, Alan Watson

Scholarly Works

The very name, 'actio de pauperie', presents us squarely with the problem. Why should this action -- dealing with damage caused by animals -- and this action alone come to be called 'the action on poverty'? For the word 'pauperies' in the later Republic and the Empire does have the primary meaning of 'poverty'. This problem does not stand by itself. The 'actio de pauperie' is old, and goes back at least to the XII Tables. Why does it -- apparently at least -- give a remedy for damage of all kinds, whereas the later lex Aquilia of 287 B.C. …

Tax Significance Of Payments In Satisfaction Of Liabilities Arising Under Section 16(B) Of The Securities Exchange Act Of 1934, Lawrence Lokken

Scholarly Works

This article examines the income tax significance to the insider of his payment in satisfaction of a liability arising under section 16(b). Such taxpayers have usually sought a deduction against ordinary income in the year of payment. When the issue was first raised, the deduction was denied. Section 16(b) liability was held to be in the nature of a penalty; allowance of the deduction, it was found, "would weaken an effective method of enforcing the sharply defined policy expressed in sectin 16(b)...." In 1961 the Internal Revenue Service modified its earlier position by ruling that section 16(b) is not a …
