Decency At The Bar

Michigan Law Review

One day, during the trial of the notorious Al Capone in the Federal Building in Chicago, immediately after an adjournment, officers stepped up to a man by the name of D'Andrea in the corridor outside the court room and removed from his person a business-like looking gun. The gentleman so unburdened is said to have been Mr. Capone's bodyguard, his attendant inside and outside the court room. After that, Mr. Capone had to get along without that particular guardian, for Judge Wilkerson, before whom the trial was conducted, ordered the henchman confined in jail. After the main case had been …

The defendant was indicted for violating a statute which prohibited the drawing of a check with knowledge that funds were insufficient for payment. (Laws of S. D., 1923, c. 121.) The statute provided for abatement of any criminal prosecution upon the defendant's showing that he had an account with the drawee bank thirty days before the check was delivered and had no intent to defraud, and also paid the amount of the check and costs.

Crimes-Withdrawal Of A Plea Of Guilty

Michigan Law Review

Defendant was charged with the violation of the prohibition law, to which he pleaded guilty. About two months after this plea was in, he filed a motion to withdraw it, and substituted one of not guilty. In support of this motion he set up that he had not been advised of his constitutional rights to have counsel; that the arresting officers told him the case would be heard in a federal court, and his punishment would be light; and that he was unaware of the liquor being in his car (which claim was subsequently disproved by the evidence). The motion …

Insurance - Accidental Means - Death By Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

Michigan Law Review

The insured died from the effects of carbon monoxide gas generated by an automobile in a closed garage. The policy which he held in the defendant company provided for compensation only if the means of death were accidental, and the insurer-resisted the claim of his beneficiary for the reason that, even if the death was accidental, it was not a death by accidental means. Held, that if the result is unexpected, death resulting from an intententional act is a death by accidental means. Wiger v. Mutual Life Ins. Co. of New York (Wis. 1931) 236 N.W. 535.


Insurance - Estoppel - Parol Evidence Rule Dec 1931

Insurance - Estoppel - Parol Evidence Rule

Michigan Law Review

The plaintiff sued on a fire policy. The insurer defended on the ground that plaintiff had violated a condition of the policy which provided that there would be no liability if loss occurred while the property was encumbered by a chattel mortgage, unless the company's written consent thereto was endorsed on the policy. Plaintiff sought to estop the defendant as to this defense because of insurer's agent's assurances, given before and after the issuance of the policy, that the policy would permit him to encumber the goods. Held, defendant's demurrer to plaintiff's replication should be sustained because of plaintiff's …
