The Legal Efficacy Of Attempted Methods Of Avoiding Probate, Hugo E. Oswald
The Legal Efficacy Of Attempted Methods Of Avoiding Probate, Hugo E. Oswald
Washington Law Review
Various means have been employed from time to time to avoid the necessity of the probating of estates. Generally speaking, such means have utterly failed to accomplish their purpose. In considering the reasons for such failures it must be borne in mind that there are two classes whose rights are affected. first, the parties themselves, and, secondly, creditors and the state by reason of its right to inheritance tax.
Necesssity Of Notice To A Municipal Corporation To Render It Liabile For Defects In Its Streets, Phyllis Cavender
Necesssity Of Notice To A Municipal Corporation To Render It Liabile For Defects In Its Streets, Phyllis Cavender
Washington Law Review
A municipal corporation is not an insurer of its streets; and is not obliged to so construct and maintain them as to secure absolute nnmunity from any danger in using them. Generally stated, its duty is to exercise ordinary care to keep them in a reasonably safe condition for public travel; this duty being in some states imposed by statute, and in others, arising by mere implication. The Washington rule is well illustrated by the case of Sutton v. Snohomish, in which the court said: "Where a city has exclusive control and management of its streets with power to raise …

Supreme Court Rule Iii Of Pleading, Procedure And Practice—Amendments And Irregularities, E. B. Herald
Washington Law Review
Can Rule III governing amendments and irregularities, be invoked by the Supreme Court voluntarily after the trial and after judgment of dismissal for failure of proof? In the case of Porter v. Baretiche in which the complaint was predicated upon an express contract, the action proceeded regularly to trial and resulted in judgment for the full amount claimed in favor of the plaintiff-respondent. Defendant's answer prayed for judgment of dismissal.

The New Judgment Lien Law, F. C. Hackman
Washington Law Review
Among the acts passed at the recent session of the Washington legislature, and which became effective June 12, 1929, is one entitled "An Act relating to judgments, their duration, lien, assignment and satisfaction and repealing certain acts relating thereto." This act purports to be a comprehensive and complete declaration of the law upon the subject-matter set forth in the title, to apply to judgments of both state and federal courts, and to repeal existing laws relating to the matters covered by the act. The principal purpose of its enactment was to repeal the existing provisions of the code relating to …

Federal Taxation Of Community Incomes—The Recent History Of Pending Questions, George Donworth
Washington Law Review
By the constitution of the United States, the Congress has power to lay and collect taxes, to pay the debts and provide for the common defense and general welfare of the United States. The constitution, however, also contains the further provision that no capitation or other direct tax shall be laid unless apportioned among the states in proportion to the population as ascertained by a federal census. In the year 1895 in Pollock v. Farmers Loan & Trust Co., 157 U. S. 429, 158 U. S. 601, 39 L. Ed. 759, 39 L. Ed. 1108, the Supreme Court of …

The British Commonwealth, The United States And World Peace, Denis Murphy
Washington Law Review
No thinking person will deny that the question of world peace is one of vital importance, one which affects every individual now living and one which will affect every individual hereafter to be born, for upon it depends the future existence of civilization as we know it and, therefore, the material, intellectual and spiritual status of every present and prospective member of the human race. And, unfortunately, no well-informed person can deny that the existing relations between the United States and the British Commonwealth of nations are not such as give that guarantee of solidarity of purpose and consonance of …

A Program Of Growth For Our Bar Association, B. H. Kizer
Washington Law Review
Our Washington State Bar Association has now been in existence for forty years. When I look back on the forty annual meetings of this Association, each with its inevitable presidential address, I am all but overwhelmed at the wisdom and the learning that have preceded me. It is well that the science of jurisprudence and the administration of justice should engage our attention from time to time, and I am glad that my predecessors so uniformly kept their addresses to such high themes. However, while we are officers of courts of justice, and engaged as students of jurisprudence, we are …

The "Sales In Bulk" Act, Edwin U. Driscoll
Washington Law Review
In the Magna Carta will be found what is said to be the first covenant for the protection of creditors' against fraudulent conveyances and other unjust acts of debtors. Since that time the attention of people through their constituted legislators has been directed to the enactment of statutes looking toward protection of creditors. Among the latest of these have been so-called "Sales in Bulk" laws, which have now been adopted in one form or another by the large majority of the states in the Union, all of which are aimed at the defrauding of creditors by the sale of all …
Judicial Control Over The Sufficiency Of The Evidence In Jury Trials, Stanley B. Long
Judicial Control Over The Sufficiency Of The Evidence In Jury Trials, Stanley B. Long
Washington Law Review
One has only to read the first few chapters of Thayer's Prelimmary Treatise on Evidence to realize that the history of trial by jury, from its beginning until the present day, records a continuous struggle to prevent the rendition of unreasonable verdicts. When the jury was really a body of witnesses summoned to try the case on their own knowledge, rather than upon evidence produced in court, it was sought to control their verdict by attaint. By this proceeding a new jury would be summoned to re-examine the issue tried by the first jury, and if the second found that …

The Penn Cases, Samuel P. Weaver
Washington Law Review
The Penn cases came at the climax of one of the most vital periods of English history The Stuart kings had denied the people many of the liberties defined by the Magna Carta and the Common Law, and additional privileges won through the centuries. James II had used every effort to repress the independence of the bar and had in fact prostituted the independence of the bench to the arbitrary prerogative of the lng. Charles II was attempting to evade the provisions of the Petition of Right, wrung from his father through the efforts of Lord Coke and other eminent …
The Action For Wrongful Death In Washington, Bryant Brady
The Action For Wrongful Death In Washington, Bryant Brady
Washington Law Review
The first statute giving a right of action for the death of a human being, Lord Campbell's Act was adopted in England in 1846. New York adopted a similar statute, a year later. At the present time all American jurisdictions have statutes conferring a right of action for wrongful death. These statutes differ widely in their terms, particularly as to the person authorized to bring the action, and as to those for whose benefit the action is prosecuted. The statutes, however, fall into two distinct classes. Statutes of the first and by far the larger group, following Lord Campbell's Act, …
The Extent To Which Affidavits Of Jurors Will Be Considered For The Purpose Of Setting Aside Their Own Verdict, Albert Olsen
The Extent To Which Affidavits Of Jurors Will Be Considered For The Purpose Of Setting Aside Their Own Verdict, Albert Olsen
Washington Law Review
The question as to what extent and under what circumstances the affidavits of jurors will be considered on a motion for a new trial, arises in instances where the losing party feels that the jury has failed to properly exercise its function of deciding the case in an impartial and unprejudiced manner according to the law and evidence submitted in the case. In an early case the arbitrary rule was laid down that under no circumstances would an affidavit of a juror be considered for the purpose of setting aside the juror's sworn act incorporated in the verdict.The rule thus …
Incompatibility Of Parties As Ground For Divorce, E. B. Herald
Incompatibility Of Parties As Ground For Divorce, E. B. Herald
Washington Law Review
This brief note is concerned with two recent decisions in the State of Washington touching the law of divorce, Shaw v. Shaw, decided August 22, 1928, by Department One, and Haller v. Haller, decided October 8, 1928, by Department Two. The facts of both cases turn upon incompatibility or the inability of the parties to live together. In the Shaw case the court holds that since the enactment of the Session Laws of 1921, p. 331, this is no longer ground for divorce in this state. In the Haller case the other department of the court apparently holds that it …
