Debt Of The Modern Law Of Guardianship To Roman Law, Charles P. Sherman Dec 1913

Debt Of The Modern Law Of Guardianship To Roman Law, Charles P. Sherman

Michigan Law Review

The Roman law of guardianship grew out of the family organization. It is also quite closely connected with the law of inheritance. The power of a guardian is that form of family power which ordinarily takes the place of paternal power when there is no one to exercise the latter. It was originally at Rome but an extension of the paternal power. In this respect the conception of guardianship is different in English law -- English guardianship rests on the principle of protecting the bodily and mental immaturity of youth.

What is a Public Purpose Justifying the Expenditure Therefore of Money Raised From Taxation - A recent Ohio case raises a question which is frequently discussed in connection with the activities of cities, i. e., 'what is a municipal or public purpose for the accomplishment of which city funds raised from taxation may be expended. The council of the city of Toledo passed an ordinance authorizing the expenditure of $1000 for the purpose of establishing a municipal moving-picture theater. The auditor refused to pay over to the director of public service the fund thus appropriated and mandamus was sought by …

On Uniformity In Judical Decisions Of Cases Arising Under The Uniform Negotiable Instruments Act, Amasa M. Eaton

Michigan Law Review

When the American Bar Association was formed in 1878, the first object stated in the call was "to assimilate the laws of the different states," and the first article of the Constitution stated that one of the principal objects of the Association was "to advance the science of jurisprudence, to promote the administration of justice and uniformity of legislation throughout the Union."

It is believed that all of these problems have not been solved in the decisions of the Missouri Court and this study is undertaken to determine what principles have been adopted, and what further principles should control the Court in the application of this statute of entails.

Constitutionality Of Teachers' Pensions Legislation Ii: The Validity Of The Proposed Michigan Law, Horace L. Wilgus

Michigan Law Review

In the preceding paper, we considered pension legislation in general -- its extent, forms, purpose, and relation to the taxing power of the state and nation. It is proposed in this paper to discuss in detail the provisions of the proposed Michigan teachers' pension law in the light of the general principles, set forth in the former paper, with reference to specific constitutional provisions, and the decisions of the courts upon-the validity of pensions for firemen and policemen which are similar in many respects to teachers' pension systems, together with such decisions as have been made concerning the constitutionality of …

The Law School -As a result of the increased requirements for admission, which are now in their second year of operation, the attendance at the Law School is less than that of last year, though the decrease is less than was anticipated at the time of the adoption of the higher requirements. The entering class (the second, under the new standard) is about thirty larger than that of last year. There are no changes in the teaching staff, and none of great importance in the curriculum.

Nature Of Legal Rights And Duties, Joseph W. Bingham Nov 1913

Nature Of Legal Rights And Duties, Joseph W. Bingham

Michigan Law Review

One cannot long talk on a legal topic without using the words right and duty or some synonyms. It is familiar hearsay that a purpose of law is to create, delimit, and protect rights and to define and enforce duties. Therefore it is of importance to inquire what is meant by "a right" and by "a duty" when we use these terms in legal discussion. The question is a linguistic one; but in the process of finding the proper answer, we shall have to analyze some of our common sorts of mental concepts and perhaps shall finish with a clear …
