Among all the writings that have appeared on the problem of preserving the order of world society, the most searching and the most illuminating is Hart's Bulwarks of Peace.

Doctrine Of Bad Faith In The Law Of Negotiable Instruments, George W. Rightmire

Michigan Law Review

This rule is now enacted in all but two of the states of the United States; the history of its development and of its application since it became undisputed is well illustrative of the process of the common law system, and this discussion is undertaken for the purpose of discovering the general principles which a trial court should have in mind when charging a jury in a case involving the application of this doctrine.

Tyranny Of The Taxing Power, Andrew A. Bruce Jan 1920

Tyranny Of The Taxing Power, Andrew A. Bruce

Michigan Law Review

It has been frequently stated that our constitutions and our courts were made and organized for the protection of capital and of the vested interests. If this be the case, they are manifestly inadequate for their purpose, and the danger of the future is not that capital will be too much protected but that the reckless extravagance of today will continue and be increased, and that our representatives in our city councils, our state legislatures, and our national congress, who depend for their elections upon the votes of the majority who have accumulated little or nothing, will more and more …

Willard Titus Barbour.- Legal scholarship in America suffered a grievous loss in the death of Willard T. Barbour, Charles F. Southmayd Professor of Law in the Yale Law School on March 2, 1920. Indeed it is not too much to say that his loss will be felt wherever the English Common Law holds its sway, for he had dipped deep into the obscured origins of Equity Jurisdiction during his study at Oxford and in London, and was but at the beginning of a series of studies and lectures which would ultimately have developed into a comprehensive book, throwing light not …

Extension Of Liability Of Abstracters, Harry R. Trusler Dec 1919

Extension Of Liability Of Abstracters, Harry R. Trusler

Michigan Law Review

The General Rule.- In 1900 a standard encyclopedia said: "By the weight of authority an abstracter is liable only to the person ordering and paying for the abstract; and where this view obtains, the fact that an abstracter has knowledge that his abstract is to be used in a sale or loan to advise a purchaser or person about to lend money does not affect the rule as to his liability. In some jurisdictions, however, the abstracter's liability has been extended to protect those who, relying on the correctness of the abstract, are injured."

Effect at the Situs Rei of a Decree Ordering Conveyance of Foreign Land - In a recent article in this Review, Prof. Willard Barbour discussed the question indicated by the above title. His cbnclusions may be-briefly slated as follows: that such a decree of a competent court having jurisdiction of the person of the defendant creates a personal obligation upon the defendant which a court of equity at the situs should enforce just as it w9uld a contract or trust concerning this land made in the foreign jurisdiction: and that, as between the States of this Union. the "full faith …

Book Reviews, Edson R. Sunderland, Edwin D. Dickinson

Michigan Law Review

Unless lawyers are an unimaginative and hopelessly backward-looking social group, as some unkind critics have asserted, they will find this book one of he most suggestive and stimulating contributions to legal literature that has appeared in recent years. It touches in a broad way the whole field of the relation of legal institutions and the legal profession to the major problems of society. It demonstr4tes in a most striking manner how those who plan and administer the machinery of the law must awake to the fact that they form the front line of civilization's defense against anarchy. And it presents …

Equitable Relief Against Nuisances And Similar Wrongs In Missouri, George L. Clark Nov 1919

Equitable Relief Against Nuisances And Similar Wrongs In Missouri, George L. Clark

University of Missouri Bulletin Law Series

In order the better to secure to the owner and occupier of land its proper use and enjoyment the common law has recognized certain rights in addition to the mere right of possession which is redressed by the action of trespass. These non-possessory rights are called natural rights because, like the right of possession, they exist irrespective of the consent of others. Any violation of these natural rights is called a private nuisance.
