Studies In Modern Choice-Of-Law: Torts, Insurance, Land Titles, Sheldon Wein
Studies In Modern Choice-Of-Law: Torts, Insurance, Land Titles, Sheldon Wein
Dalhousie Law Journal
This is a collection of the more important articles on conflict of laws that Professor Hancock has written since 1960; in addition, it contains a chapter, hitherto unpublished, on Allstate Ins. Co. v. Hague,' the Supreme Court's most recent foray into constitutional limitations on the power of a state to apply its law in situations involving foreign facts. Many of us undoubtedly read the majority of these essays at the time when they first appeared in law review form. It is good that they are now available in a single book. We are thereby afforded a convenient opportunity to refresh …

Dalhousie Law Journal
The evolution of the Supreme Court of Nova Scotia has been well described elsewhere.' This paper will describe the evolution during the colonial period of the main civil and criminal lower courts of Nova Scotia. Omitted are such courts as the Vice Admiralty and Probate Courts. These require separate examination. This paper traces the development of the courts of General Sessions of the Peace and the Inferior Court of Common Pleas, the main criminal and civil lower courts of the period, from the time of their inception shortly after the founding of Halifax in 1749.

Book Review: Louis D. Brandeis And The Progressive Tradition; Brandeis, Paul Brickner
Vanderbilt Law Review
Urofsky has captured the essence of Brandeis in his excellent and informative volume. Urofsky often demonstrates a fine facility for clarifying points and positions with meaningful factual details.His book reveals the depth of scholarship that one would expect from a co-editor of the five volume collection of Brandeis' letters."He recognized the importance of the relationship between Brandeis and Frankfurter and devoted an entire small chapter to their efforts to promulgate their views as described by Bruce Murphy. For a concise but telling biography of Brandeis, from the "people's attorney" to one of the Supreme Court's " nine old men", Urofsky's …

The Supreme Court Of Canada And "The Bowater's Law", 1950, Peter Neary
Dalhousie Law Journal
Many accounts have been written of the events leading to Newfoundland's union with Canada in 1949. None, however, details the diplomatic and legal controversy which developed in the months before union over the future status of Bowater's Newfoundland Pulp and Paper Mills Ltd. Settled by the Supreme Court of Canada in 1950, this tangled issue, arising from legislation dating back to 1915, produced important judicial insights into the constitutional position Newfoundland had assumed on becoming a Canadian province.
Greenwood Shopping Plaza Ltd. V. Beattie And Pettipas: Life Masquerading As A Contract Case, C. M. Arymowicz
Greenwood Shopping Plaza Ltd. V. Beattie And Pettipas: Life Masquerading As A Contract Case, C. M. Arymowicz
Dalhousie Law Journal
The Supreme Court of Canada held that the defendants in Greenwood Shopping Plaza Ltd. v. Beattie and Pettipas1 could not claim any benefit from a contract because they were third party beneficiaries thereto. Restated, the Court permitted the insurer of a building to reach through the landlord and the tenant, and recoup itself by saddling the tenant's employees with liability for negligently performing their jobs although it could sue neither landlord nor tenant. This result is so unpalatable to both business and labour that it will be avoided, and insurers will acquiesce. In this note I will, (a) by way …
