Notes On Some Interesting Wills, Sidney T. Miller
Notes On Some Interesting Wills, Sidney T. Miller
Michigan Law Review
In treating of this subject no attempt is made to deal with wills analytically or with much technicality. Rather is it the writer's aim to call attention briefly to some wills, ancient or modern, which stand out from the great mass for one reason or another. It would be easy to enlarge this into a treatise on the general theories of will-making; of the customs of different times and localities which sanctioned this or that form,-of nuncupative wills, holographic wills, and the secret or mystic testament provided for by the Louisiana Code, which is sealed up by the testator and, …

A Partnership as a Farmer in Bankruptcy - After much uncertainty and difference of opinion among the courts as to the position of Partnerships under the Bankruptcy Act certain phases of the problem were set at rest by the Supreme Court in Francis v. McNeal. By that case it seems to have been authoritatively settled (1) that in determining the solvency or insolvency of a partnership the individual estates available for payment of firm debts are to be considered, and (2) that an adjudication of the firm as such draws into the proceeding the administration of the estates of members …
Ontario Courts And Procedure, Herbert Harley
Ontario Courts And Procedure, Herbert Harley
Michigan Law Review
The progress made in England under the Judicature Acts of 1873 and 1875, with occasional revisions of procedure, has a deep interest for the American lawyer in search of judicial efficiency. In recent years a number of our lawyers have studied the English courts at first hand and upon their return have spread the news of great accomplishments in the home of the common law. These enthusiastic reports have been subjected to incisive criticism, so that controversy has arisen, and it has been difficult to determine to what extent inference from undoubted facts would apply to our own unsettled conditions. …
Proposed Remedies In Court Procedure, Willis B. Perkins
Proposed Remedies In Court Procedure, Willis B. Perkins
Michigan Law Review
It is the judgment of the writer that the chief function of the legislature is to declare substantive rights. Court procedure being but the machinery by which substantive rights are determined, the responsibility for the effectiveness of that machinery should rest alone upon the courts. Unnecessary prolixity and confusion too frequently result from the present two-fold source of procedural law.
Registration Of Land Titles, John R. Rood
Registration Of Land Titles, John R. Rood
Michigan Law Review
It is proposed in this paper to consider some of the advantages and disadvantages of the older system of no registration, the later system of registering the instruments of conveyance, and the latest system of making the title depend entirely on a recorded adjudication that it is thus and so, which absolutely displaces all former titles-adjudicated or otherwise. It is also proposed to consider some of the reasons why the older systems persist.

The Right of the Patentee to Control the Resale Price - Of the recent decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States, Bauer and Cie. v. O'Donnell, the so-called Price Maintenance Case, was of vital importance to a large number of manufacturers of patented articles. That this decision had a great effect upon such manufacturers is evidenced by the various ingenious methods ahd devices which have since been adopted by numerous manufacturers to avoid the operation and application of the principles set forth in the decision of that case.

Estates By The Marital Right And By The Curtesy In Missouri, Charles K. Burdick
Estates By The Marital Right And By The Curtesy In Missouri, Charles K. Burdick
University of Missouri Bulletin Law Series
By the common law, if a woman married, seised of a freehold estate in land, or became seised of such an estate after marriage, her husband also, by the marital right, became immediately seised of an estate in the land. Although certain characteristics of the estate jure mariti are well established, it has nevertheless seemed to be one of the difficult problems of the law to define its nature.

Basic Doctrine Of American Constitutional Law, Edward Corwin
Basic Doctrine Of American Constitutional Law, Edward Corwin
Michigan Law Review
The two leading doctrines of American Constitutional Law before the Civil War, affecting state legislative power, were the Doctrine of Vested Rights and the Doctrine of the Police Power. The two doctrines are in a way complementary concepts, inasmuch as they represent the reaction upon each other of the earlier conflicting theories of natural rights and legislative sovereignty. But the older doctrine is the, doctrine of vested rights, which may be said to have flourished before the rise of the Jacksonian Democracy. Furthermore, if Constitutional Law be regarded from the point of view of its main purpose, namely, that of …
Legislating The Incumbent Out Of Office, W. Gordon Stoner
Legislating The Incumbent Out Of Office, W. Gordon Stoner
Michigan Law Review
Under the English common law the officer's right or interest in the office which he held was regarded as a property right, an incorporeal hereditament. Largely because of the inherent difference between the nature and incidents of the public office at common law and those of the public office in this country, this conception never gained general acceptance here. In a few cases, and particularly in the decisions of the courts of North Carolina, offices have been asserted to be the property of the rightful incumbent. In these decisions the officer's right has been regarded as less absolute, perhaps, than …

Adverse Possession in the Case of the Rights of Way of the Pacific Railroad Companies - While the weight of authority is probably to the effect that railroad rights of way may be lost by adverse possession, the authorities are by no means agreed. The rights of way of certain of the Pacific Railroad Companies have been declared not to be subject to the ordinary rules as to adverse possession, on the ground that by the Congressional grants the four-hundred-foot-strips -were conveyed only for railroad purposes with the ultimate possibility of reverter in the United States, which had the effect …

English Judicature Act Of 1873, Willis B. Perkins
English Judicature Act Of 1873, Willis B. Perkins
Michigan Law Review
It seems to be the general impression that reform in judicial procedure is a new and radical thing in the history of jurisprudence. This is far from the fact. It is as old as jurisprudence itself. From Solon to Justinian, from Justinian to the Magna Charta, from the Magna Charta to Bentham, from Bentham to Field, and in every civilized country, radical changes have taken place from time to time, touching both procedure and substantive law. Court systems have been codified, systematized and rearranged to meet advancing and changing social and industrial conditions. From the religious ceremonies, constituting the methods …
