Stream Flow Maintenance In Virginia, Timothy Hayes, Jeter M. Watson Jan 1984

Stream Flow Maintenance In Virginia, Timothy Hayes, Jeter M. Watson

University of Richmond Law Review

Increasing and conflicting uses of water have been widely heralded as one of the major environmental crises facing society. Below average rainfall in recent years has caused municipal water shortages in Virginia, particularly in the rapidly growing areas of the southeastern part of the state, evidence that water quantity problems are no longer a phenomenon peculiar to the western states. Generally, those in Virginia who advocate reallocation of water to areas of the state experiencing such shortages feel that the state has enough water, just not all in the correct places.

Fiduciary Law, Tamar Frankel May 1983

Fiduciary Law, Tamar Frankel

Faculty Scholarship

In the business realm, the fiduciary duties of partners, corporate directors, and officers originated with the formation of partnerships and corporations, but majority shareholders were not subjected to fiduciary duties until this century. ... As in a status relation, one party to a fiduciary relation (the entrustor) is dependent on the other (the fiduciary). ... For example, a trust is defined as a fiduciary relation in which property is transferred to the trustee. ... A trustee is chosen by the trustor, and must be able to manage the trust assets independently of the beneficiary's control. ... It further shows that …

The Continuing Power Of Attorney - An Essential Instrument, Richard M. Thigpen, Richard E. Thigpen Jr.

Campbell Law Review

This article, which deals with the practical aspects of the creation and use of continuing powers of attorney, particularly in financial and estate planning areas, is based in part on the experience and opinion of the authors because there is very little case law on the subject.

Does The Agency Die When The Principal Becomes Mentally Incapacitated?, W. Alfred Mukatis Jan 1983

Does The Agency Die When The Principal Becomes Mentally Incapacitated?, W. Alfred Mukatis

Seattle University Law Review

This Article explores the status of an agency when a competent principal enters into an agency relationship and thereafter becomes mentally incapacitated. On the one hand, does the status of the agency depend on factors relating to the principal such as type, length, or permanence of the incapacity? For instance, is the status of the agency the same when a principal lapses into a coma as it is when a conscious principal is incapacitated because of a mental disease such as schizophrenia? If in a coma, how does the length of the coma affect the status of the agency? Is …


Agency Law In The Arabian Peninsula And North Africa, Paul Homsy Jan 1983

Agency Law In The Arabian Peninsula And North Africa, Paul Homsy

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

This article examines the agency laws of Algeria, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. These countries were chosen because they are representative of the different legal approaches to the regulation of agents in the Middle East. For example, Algeria and Iraq, which have state controlled economies, severely restrict the use of agents. Egypt has significantly relaxed state controls on its economy during the last decade and, in general permits the use of agents while retaining few restritions on their use in the sale of certain commodities. Saudi Arabi's free enterprise economy is dominated by public …


A Reexamination Of The Agency Doctrine Of Election, Mark A. Sargent, Arnold Rochvarg May 1982

A Reexamination Of The Agency Doctrine Of Election, Mark A. Sargent, Arnold Rochvarg

University of Miami Law Review

The Restatement (Second) of Agency and several states provide that a third party suing an undisclosed principal and his agent must elect to take judgment against one, releasing the other from further liability. In contrast, when the existence of a principal but not his identity is disclosed at the time of agreement, a court may enter judgment against both the partially disclosed principal and his agent, releasing neither until the judgment is satisfied. The authors examine the theories and case law supporting the election doctrine in the light of public policy favoring complete disclosure. The authors conclude that a rule …

The Termination Of Agency And Distributorship Agreements: A Comparative Survey, A.H. Puelinckx, H.A. Tielemans Jan 1981

The Termination Of Agency And Distributorship Agreements: A Comparative Survey, A.H. Puelinckx, H.A. Tielemans

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

The termination of agency agreements in most EEC Member States is regulated by statute, while the termination of distributorship agreements, with the exception of Belgium, is governed by case law. Messrs. Puelinckx and Tielemans first survey the state of the law governing the termination of agency and distributorship agreements in the EEC Member States and then discuss the efforts of the EEC to harmonize the national laws of the Member States in the area of commercial representation. The authors conclude by supporting the EEC harmonization effort relating to the laws regulating agency agreements and by calling for further efforts to …


Impacts Of The Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning And Conservation Act On The Development Of Energy Resources In The Pacific Northwest: An Analysis Of The Resource Acquisition Priority Scheme, Preston Michie Jan 1981

Impacts Of The Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning And Conservation Act On The Development Of Energy Resources In The Pacific Northwest: An Analysis Of The Resource Acquisition Priority Scheme, Preston Michie

Seattle University Law Review

This article discusses how the Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning and Conservation Act may affect the region's choice of resources to construct. Potential choices range from conventional resources such as coal and nuclear to renewable resources such as geothermal, biomass, wave, tidal, solar, and wind. In addition, conservation and cogeneration are now viable energy alternatives. This discussion focuses on PNEPPCA's resource acquisition priority scheme and provides an overview of the incentives and disincentives which may influence the resource selection process. Rather than predicting which resources the region's utilities may ultimately construct, this article analyzes the legal barriers proponents of particular …

The Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning And Conservation Act-Solution For A Regional Dilemma, Henry M. Jackson Jan 1980

The Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning And Conservation Act-Solution For A Regional Dilemma, Henry M. Jackson

Seattle University Law Review

For the past four decades, the Bonneville Power Administration(BPA) has played a singular and powerful role in developing the Northwest regional electric power system, and indirectly in the regional economy that system supports. The federal government's decision during the first half of this century to develop multi-purpose water resource projects led to the construction of many dams, most of them in the Western United States, most built since the mid-1930s, and most including hydroelectric generation. As we enter the 1980s, fundamental changes have occurred. Historically, BPA has had sufficient resources to sell power to any utility or other customer in …


The Extraterritorial Application Of Nepa Under Executive Order 12,114, Sue D. Sheridan Jan 1980

The Extraterritorial Application Of Nepa Under Executive Order 12,114, Sue D. Sheridan

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

On January 5, 1977, President Carter issued Executive Order No. 12,1142 (Executive Order) describing the scope of United States federal agencies' obligations to consider the environmental consequences of proposed agency actions abroad. In so doing, Carter purported to establish the sole legal authority governing agency response to the concern for the global environment. Moreover, the Executive Order was intended to resolve a heated debate over the extraterritorial applicability of the National Environmental Policy Act [NEPA] which had concerned federal agencies, courts, Congress, and the Executive Branch during three successive administrations.

The controversy focused on whether NEPA's requirement that an environmental …


The Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning And Conservation (And Thermal Power Plant Relief) Act, Ralph Cavanagh Jan 1980

The Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning And Conservation (And Thermal Power Plant Relief) Act, Ralph Cavanagh

Seattle University Law Review

Supporters of the proposed Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning and Conservation Act have not produced satisfactory answers to two fundamental questions. First, why does the region require significant new incentives for the construction of nuclear and coal-fired power plants? Second, why must Congress link urgently needed encouragement of conservation and renewable energy measures to the creation of such incentives?
