Secured Transactions (Other Than Real Estate Mortgages)—A Comparison Of The Law In Washington And The Uniform Commercial Code Article 9, Warren L. Shattuck
Washington Law Review
The National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws and the American Law Institute in late 1951 approved The Uniform Commercial Code. A few last-minute changes were made in 1953 and the Code is presumably now in final form. The period of critical appraisal, evaluation, and legislative consideration is at hand. It is the purpose of this article to indicate the Secured Transactions consequences, were the Code enacted in the state of Washington. An effort will also be made to suggest the relative advantages of the Code and the existing law; these suggestions should be received with caution. The reader …
The Privilege Against Revealing Military Secrets, Robert F. Brachtenbach
The Privilege Against Revealing Military Secrets, Robert F. Brachtenbach
Washington Law Review
One of the rules most frequently invoked to exclude evidence is that of the privileged communication—between husband and wife, attorney and client or physician and patient. In contrast, a voice claiming the privilege to exclude evidence because it involves military secrets has seldom been heard in the courtroom. Yet it is recognized as a genuine testimonial privilege of early origin. In the present era of intensive military preparation—often of a nature most secret, yet in close contact with civilian life—it is appropriate to examine the scope and mechanics of the privilege. At the outset a word of limitation is necessary. …
The Washington Subversive Activities Act: Its Restriction On Access To The Election Process, Gordon Jaynes
The Washington Subversive Activities Act: Its Restriction On Access To The Election Process, Gordon Jaynes
Washington Law Review
Since the time of the Alien and Sedition Laws of 1798, the national and state governments have sporadically enacted legislation intended to inhibit and punish activity subversive to existing government. Since Jefferson's time, such legislation has had both impassioned advocates and embittered opponents. It is the product of eras of political tension. Inherent in these laws is the danger that zealousness in the preservation of the integrity of government may violate political rights guaranteed by our constitutions. An examination of their constitutionality need imply no judgment regarding the political wisdom of their enactment nor the manner of their enforcement, and …
The Duty Of The Favored Driver Under The Right Of Way Statute To Maintain A Reasonable And Proper Lookout, James F. Mcateer
The Duty Of The Favored Driver Under The Right Of Way Statute To Maintain A Reasonable And Proper Lookout, James F. Mcateer
Washington Law Review
Must the favored driver keep a lookout to the left? The court evaded the issue in the case of Massengale v. Svangren. In that case two cars were approaching an intersection at approximately the same time and at approximately the same speed, 30 miles per hour. Neither driver saw the other until it was too late to avoid the collision. The majority of the court preferred to place its finding on the ground that since the favored driver "had the right to assume" that the disfavored driver would observe him and yield the right of way, the favored driver's failure …
Presumption Of Due Care By Decedent: An Anomaly Destroyed, George K. Faler
Presumption Of Due Care By Decedent: An Anomaly Destroyed, George K. Faler
Washington Law Review
In the recent case of Hutton v. Martin, the plaintiff sued the defendant for wrongful death arising from an automobile collision. The factual issue was whether plaintiff's decedent was contributorily negligent by driving on the wrong side of the road at the time of the accident. There were no eye-witnesses to the accident except the defendant Martin. The trial judge gave the jury the following instruction: "You are instructed that when a person is injured and dies as a result of a collision, a presumption arises that the person killed was at the time exercising due care and that he …

The Libraries Of The Legal Profession: A Study Prepared For The Survey Of The Legal Profession, By William R. Roalfe (1953), Marian G. Gallagher
Washington Law Review
The statistics, and the author's conclusions, make good bolstering material because they are as authoritative as it is possible to obtain. Mr. Roalfe has a fine reputation among lawyers and librarians as a law library oracle, partly because of this training and experience, and partly because he never seems to have an axe to grind. He will tell you where he stands personally, and then proceed to outline arguments on both sides of the question. In preparing this Survey, he has deviated from form only in limiting expression of personal opinion to the minimum which must creep into any author's …
