Reflections From A Different Perspective, B. J. George Jr.

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

A signal fact of the 1960's is the widespread attention being paid to modernization of America's criminal law and procedure. After nearly a century of patchwork adjustments of state codes or fragmentary modification of the common law, the federal government and a great many states are moving toward new substantive codes and new codes or rules of criminal procedure. As one who has been working as a reporter in Michigan's endeavor to revise its criminal law and procedure, I have been asked to comment in a general way on Mr. Robinson's effort at reforming Wisconsin law.

Judicial Tax Courts For The States: A Modern Imperative, William D. Dexter

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

There has been growing discontent among tax gatherers and taxpayers alike over the disposition of state and local tax disputes. Concern centers on the nature of appellate review and its availability irrespective of the tax involved or the amount or subject matter in controversy. In many jurisdictions the system of review in tax cases presents an unwieldy array of alternative administrative and judicial avenues of review which are confusing to the prospective tax appellant and destructive of economy and uniformity in the system. This article will assess the need for a specialized judicial court to review the initial disposition of …

Commonwealth Of Puerto Rico V. Rosso: Land Banking And The Expanded Concept Of Public Use, David L. Callies

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

As the supply of vacant land on which to expand dwindles, the economic, social and cultural blight attendant upon the rapid but relatively unplanned growth of metropolitan areas increasingly becomes a subject of grave concern throughout the world. The two most common traditional approaches to land use problems are now proving inadequate, given the nature of urban sprawl. The first is zoning, basically an exercise of the police power whereby a governmental body restricts the use of land by appropriate regulation without compensating the owner. The restriction must be for the purpose of promoting the health, morals, safety or welfare …

Affirmative Action: A Robin Hood Hiring In Federally Aided Construction, Frederick W. Lambert

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

Executive Order 11246, promulgated in September 1965, requires that all federal financial aid applicants incorporate into construction contracts and sub-contracts the same guarantees of equal employment opportunity that are required of parties in a direct contractual relationship with the government. Each contractor must "take affirmative action to ensure that [job] applicants are employed… and treated during employment" in a nondiscriminatory manner and must guarantee that his subcontractors will also take such affirmative action. Responsibility for enforcement of the Order was delegated to the newly-established Office of Federal Contract Compliance (OFCC). The OFCC drafted guidelines 6 requiring contractors and major subcontractors …

Persuader: Mobilization Of Support, Mary Ann Beattie

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

Law reform can be achieved through precedent-setting case law and through legislation. Each is a time-consuming activity with its own stumbling blocks. To establish law through the case method, one must have a fact situation directly on point with the inequity which one is trying to remedy. In many situations the client must be willing to follow through a long process of trial and appeal, instead of settling for a more immediate but incomplete resolution of his problem. The costs of litigation may become an insurmountable problem. Another difficulty with the test case as a vehicle for law reform is …

A Goal-Oriented Model Code Of Pre-Arraignment Procedure For Wisconsin, Cyril D. Robinson

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

In this article we analyze the arrest chapter of the proposed code as it was substantially completed at the time the project was terminated, although it has been updated to accommodate relevant recent case law. We examine the need for guiding principles in drafting a code, the proper aims and organization of the code, the proposed provisions of the arrest chapter, and the law and practice which recommend both the principles and the provisions.

Tenant's Attorney: Evaluation Of Impact, Ronald D. Glotta

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

The natural question raised by the passage of "Tenant Rights" legislation is whether the new law helps or hinders the practicing attorney representing tenants. In analyzing the package of Tenant Rights Bills enacted in Michigan in 1968 this article will focus on three questions: 1) whether such legislation raises false hopes in being heralded as a major declaration of rights and an effort to solve the problem of housing shortage; 2) whether such legislation actually further oppresses tenants, especially in their exercise of the one effective instrument in their power: collective action; and 3) whether such legislation significantly changes the …

Constitutionality Of The Illinois Draft Card Burning Act, Robert J. Dyer Iii

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

Pre-emption, a doctrine based on Article VI of the United States Constitution (the “Supremacy Clause”), considers “…the validity of state laws in the light of… Federal laws touching on the same subject.” Where state and federal laws embrace the same subject matter the question is whether Congress intended to preclude state legislative participation in the area or to allow concurrent power. If Congress did intend to preclude state legislation on the subject, the state law must be struck down as a violation of Article VI. Where there is no directly expressed Congressional intent the Court must discover that intent, and …

Preferential Transfers On The Eve Of The Bankruptcy Amendments, Richard M. Kohn

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

While secured lenders may have been content to ride the crest of judicial legislation, the only permanent solution to the problem lie in amending either the Bankruptcy Act, the Uniform Commercial Code, or both. This at least is the view taken by the National Bankruptcy Conference's Committee on Coordination of the Uniform Commercial Code and Bankruptcy Act. Since its first meeting in June 1966, the Committee has focused its attention primarily upon the validity, in bankruptcy proceedings, of Article 9 security interests in after-acquired property. In September 1967, the Committee submitted to the Bankruptcy Conference its first draft of a …

Private International Law And Its Sources, Elliott E. Cheatham, Harold G. Maier

Vanderbilt Law Review

Professors Cheatham and Maier raise the question, "What are the sources of the law applied in private international cases?" The authors consider this question under two main headings. The first deals with the "authoritative sources" of private international law applied in United States courts. It considers the question, Where, within the complex governmental structure of the United States, does power over private international matters rest?" Several possible sources are considered: public international law, state law, and federal law, and within federal law, the major components: international agreements, legislation, federal common law and executive law. The second part of the article …

Underground Gas Storage: Economic Needs And A Proposed Statutory Resolution Of Legal Obstacles, Steven Y. Winnick

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

Gas storage is necessary to equate the supply and demand for gas in different parts of the United States. Most areas of the country lack sufficient native gas supplies to meet their own demands for consumption, and commercial natural gas produced mainly in the southwest must be shipped to all parts of the country. The primary and most economical means of shipment is by pipelines. But during the winter months pipelines carrying capacity loads are incapable of meeting the demand for gas, especially for residential space heating. Contrariwise, capacity far exceeds demand during the warmer periods. This Article will discuss …

Draftsman: Formulation Of Policy, Carl Schier

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

Most low income families rent their living accommodations; for them the lease arrangement is a precarious one at best. It is generally a periodic tenancy from week to week or month to month with the agreement rarely reduced to writing. If the allocation of rights and duties between the parties is spelled out by them at all, it is quite one-sided and normally delineates only what the tenant may and may not do. When there is no written agreement or when the writing is silent as to the obligations of the parties, the common law of landlord and tenant controls, …

Antitrust Proscription And The Mass Media, Arthur D. Austin

Duke Law Journal

The shift in the business world's primary concern from one of greater industrial expansion to the present race in consumer motivation and concomitant marketing processes has elevated mass media to new importance in antitrust analytics. The author contends that the Supreme Court is moving far too slowly in accomodating the mass-media phenomenon to conventional antitrust wisdom. After examining the impact of mass media in the economic setting, and the Court's halting response, the author urges that only a radical change in antitrust perspective can hope to account for this institutional force in future decisions.
