Re Campbellton (City Of) And Canadian Union Of Public Employees, Local 76, Innis Christie, H Harvey, D Cochrane Feb 1982

Re Campbellton (City Of) And Canadian Union Of Public Employees, Local 76, Innis Christie, H Harvey, D Cochrane

Innis Christie Collection

We are concerned in this interim award with the legal questions of whether this board of arbitration is properly constituted and whether we have jurisdiction to deal with the grievances before us. At this stage we are not concerned with whether or not the dismissal of the grievors by the employer was just and reasonable. Indeed, we do not have before us evidence of the facts on the basis of which any decision on that ultimately important issue will have to be made. The only facts which concern us now are those which are necessary for the legal decision we …

Comity And The International Application Of The Sherman Act: Encouraging The Courts To Enter The Political Arena, Steven A. Kadish Jan 1982

Comity And The International Application Of The Sherman Act: Encouraging The Courts To Enter The Political Arena, Steven A. Kadish

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

In this article, Mr. Kadish discusses the comity analysis of Timberlane Lumber Company v. Bank of America, and examines what it involves, what it accomplishes, whether it is justified, and whether there are preferable alternatives to it. He concludes that the Timberlane analysis should rejected, or at least limited becauses its use to determine United States' court jurisdiction is at best questionable, because it violates traditional abstention doctrine and current Supreme Court and Congressional treatment of foreigners' activities, because there may be insurmountable practical difficulties in applying the analysis, and because the analysis encourages courts to enter the political arena.

The Law Of The Flag, The Law Of Extradition, The Nato Status Of Forces Agreement, And Their Application To Members Of The United States Army National Guard, Fred W. Beesley, Jr.

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

With the advent of Project Capstone in 1980, the United States Army adopted a master European war plan which committed virtually every Army National Guard and Army Reserve unit to a large-scale field army for use in the European Theater of Operations. The plan was designed to combat a hypothetical offensive by tank-heavy Warsaw Pact forces through the centuries-old Fulda Gap invasion route in the central region of the Federal Republic of Germany, or through the relatively vulnerable North German Plain.

Actions by Warsaw Pact troops in Poland and Afghanistan increase the likelihood that United States contingency war planning will …
