Bankruptcy--Rights And Powers In Chapter Xiii, John T. Copenhaver Jr. Jun 1966

Bankruptcy--Rights And Powers In Chapter Xiii, John T. Copenhaver Jr.

West Virginia Law Review

An understanding of the rights and powers of the various parties involved in a Chapter XIII proceeding is not easily had. The statutory language is somewhat windblown, sometimes confused and frequently ambiguous. Reported decisions in Chapter XIII cases are few. However, Chapter XI, dealing with arrangements, and Chapter XIII, dealing with wage earner plans, contain many identical or quite similar provisions, so that an interpretation of one of the chapters often has significance as authority for a like position under the other chapter. Where such is the case, reference will be made to cases decided under or a treatise on …

Some Municipal Annexation Problems In West Virginia, John Payne Scherer Jun 1966

Some Municipal Annexation Problems In West Virginia, John Payne Scherer

West Virginia Law Review

When a city or town in West Virginia desires to annex additional territory, it is frequently faced with perplexing problems in determining just what the proper procedures are. In some instances it is almost impossible to say with certainty whether certain annexation provisions of the code are applicable for a proposed annexation. One of the major problems is that the annexaton provisions of West Virginia's code are found in two separate chapters, chapter 8 and chapter 8A. The requirements for annexing additional territory are quite different in each of the two chapters. The purpose of this note is to examine …

Industrial And Commercial Loans And Guarantees For New Or Expanding Business Under The Public Works And Economic Development Act Of 1965, James M. Roberts

West Virginia Law Review

In his pivotal primary victory over Hubert Humphrey, President John F. Kennedy pledged that he would lend vigorous assistance to the impoverished coal mining regions of West Virginia to alleviate their economic distress. In fulfillment of this pledge, Congress passed and President Kennedy signed into law in May, 1961, the Area Redevelopment Act in order to "establish an effective program to alleviate conditions of substantial and persistent unemployment and underemployment in certain economically distressed areas." The Area Redevelopment Act created an experimental pilot program within the Department of Commerce to accomplish the above purpose through a system of government loans …

Adverse Possession Of Severable Minerals, William B. Stoebuck Apr 1966

Adverse Possession Of Severable Minerals, William B. Stoebuck

West Virginia Law Review

The subject of adverse possession is attended by such mystery that one might think it traceable to the druidic rather than late medieval period of English history. Existence of this mystery, needless as it may be, makes it worthwhile for any article on adverse possession to commence by establishing some basic concepts. Foremost among these is that, as understood today, adverse possession of another's land for the period of the statute limiting his right to recover it not only bars his remedy but creates in the disseisor an original title in fee simple. Thus, adverse possession gives the wrongful possessor …

Safeguarding Atoms-For-Peace: U. K. Bilateral Agreements With Other Nations, Stephen Gorove Apr 1966

Safeguarding Atoms-For-Peace: U. K. Bilateral Agreements With Other Nations, Stephen Gorove

West Virginia Law Review

The dawn of the atomic age in the mid-twentieth century has brought with it many challenges and unique responsibilities. One of the most difficult among them has been the prevention of a nuclear holocaust in a world arena dotted with suspicion, jealousy and even outright hostility. Faced with excessive delays if not insuperable obstacles in finding a generally acceptable formula for atomic arms control and recognizing the close interrelationship between the civil and military applications of nuclear energy, the leading nuclear powers of the West wished to insure at least that their atomic assistance intended for the peaceful pursuits of …
