Freedom Of Movement In Latin America, Daniel C. Turack Jan 1968

Freedom Of Movement In Latin America, Daniel C. Turack

Duquesne Law Review

Today, nationals of many member States of the Organization of American States no longer require a valid national passport to visit other member States. The present standards of freedom of movement emerged as a result of waiver of the passport requirement and the simplification of immigration procedures-the direct outcome of regional international assemblies held in this century, and unilateral measures as indirect consequences of the same meetings. It is now generally recognized by leaders of governments as well as the civil servants located in the higher echelons of their Government's administration that persons bent on engaging in subversive activities within …

Zoning - Planned Unit Development, David J. Kozma

Duquesne Law Review

Borough Council is not precluded from rezoning land in accordance with a changed comprehensive plan, and the creation of a planned unit development district permitting a mixture of uses does not vest in the planning commission authority greater than that permitted under zoning enabling legislation.

Cheney v. Village At New Hope, Inc., 429 Pa. 626, 241 A.2d 81 (1968).

The Americanization Of Renvoi, David E. Seidelson Jan 1968

The Americanization Of Renvoi, David E. Seidelson

Duquesne Law Review

Almost since its first introduction to American jurisprudence, renvoi has been looked upon as a dirty word by most courts in this country. in most circumstances. There are probably several reasons for this disdain. First, it is a foreign word, and if there is one thing a judge, confronted with a delicate choice of law problem involving the potential application of the law of another jurisdiction, can do without, it's a foreign word. But that problem is fairly easy to resolve. Simply take away its italicization, and renvoi becomes just another word absorbed into the language. A second reason for …

Admiralty Tort Jurisdiction - The Last Barrier, Alfred S. Pelaez Jan 1968

Admiralty Tort Jurisdiction - The Last Barrier, Alfred S. Pelaez

Duquesne Law Review

The many advantages the admiralty gives to an injured plaintiff, particularly if he can be brought within the scope of those remedies traditionally reserved to seamen, has long been the envy of lawyers whose shore-bound client's causes are often subjected to a confusing and conflicting array of local laws and procedures. A plaintiff within the admiralty jurisdiction can, for instance, properly commence his action in any district wherein he can obtain service of process upon the defendant or upon the res against which his maritime lien attaches, and need not worry about such nebulous concepts as "doing business." Furthermore, he …


The Second Justice Marshall, Ronald R. Davenport Jan 1968

The Second Justice Marshall, Ronald R. Davenport

Duquesne Law Review

From 1801 until 1835 the first Justice Marshall served a distinguished tenure as Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court. Legal scholars, political scientists, historians and even high school civics teachers recognize his tremendous contribution to the development of American Government and to the definition of the relationship between the Court, the Executive, and the Legislative branches' of government. No one man has done more to establish the Court as an institution or to provide the foundation of American Constitutional law. Since the first Justice Marshall's tenure there have been great Justices: Black; Frankfurter; Brandeis; Hughes; Harlan; Holmes; Cardozo; …


Fraud On The Patent Office: A Source Of Antitrust Litigation, Dennis P. Mankin Jan 1968

Fraud On The Patent Office: A Source Of Antitrust Litigation, Dennis P. Mankin

Duquesne Law Review

Recent decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States in Walker Process Equipment, Inc. v. Food Machinery and Chemical Corp., and the Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit in American Cyanamid Co. v. Federal Trade Commission, holding that fraud on the Patent Office may give rise to a hazard of liability under Section 2 of the Sherman Act and Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act, raise several questions. It is the function of this paper to inquire into Patent Office procedure as it relates to possibilities for fraudulent conduct, and then to consider the …


Prepayment Health Care Plan Enabling Acts - Are Their Restrictive Features Constitutional?, John M. Campfield Jan 1968

Prepayment Health Care Plan Enabling Acts - Are Their Restrictive Features Constitutional?, John M. Campfield

Duquesne Law Review

Illness is something which afflicts the rich as well as the poor, the affluent as well as the downtrodden. It does not choose its host according to social position, educational background, or economic status. In this century the medical sciences and the medical professions have minimized the hazards of illness. Yet the costs of preventing or curing illness, and the financial burden placed upon the victim, persists and grows.


Civil Procedure - Long-Arm Statute - Broad Interpretation, John Tumolo Jan 1968

Civil Procedure - Long-Arm Statute - Broad Interpretation, John Tumolo

Duquesne Law Review

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court interpreted the scope of Section 331, which provides for service against non-resident owners of real estate, and concluded the word "involved" as used in the statute does not require a causal connection between the accident or injury and the real estate, but only the occurrence of the accident or injury on the real estate.

Criminal Law - Searches And Seizures, Donetta Wypiski

The Postulate Of Methodological Purity In Hans Kelsen's Pure Theory Of Law, Ilmar Tammelo Jan 1968

The Postulate Of Methodological Purity In Hans Kelsen's Pure Theory Of Law, Ilmar Tammelo

Duquesne Law Review

Hans Kelsen's famous book, Reine Rechtslehre, originally published in 1934 and completely revised and considerably expanded in 1960, has now become available in English. The translation by Max Knight of its second edition has been "carefully checked by the author" and can therefore be considered as fully authentic. Regrettably it does not contain the prefaces to the first and the second editions of the book and also lacks the valuable addendum to the latter entitled "Das Problem der Gerechtigkeit" ("The Problem of Justice"), which are highly informative about the author's enterprise and illuminating as providing thoughts complementary to the main …

Nlrb's Totality Of Conduct Theory In Representation Elections And Problems Involved In Its Application, John J. Cuneo Jan 1968

Nlrb's Totality Of Conduct Theory In Representation Elections And Problems Involved In Its Application, John J. Cuneo

Duquesne Law Review

At the heart of every representation election campaign lie the communications made by either side to the electorate-the stream of handbills, speeches, conversations and letters that seek to influence the final decision of the voters. It is through these partisan messages that employees obtain the bulk of information from which they must make a reasoned choice in accepting or rejecting unionization. On the one hand, limits have been imposed to restrict the content of what may be said by either party, while on the other, rules have been laid down to guarantee both employers and unions a reasonable opportunity to …
