The "Trust Fund" Theory: A Study In Psychology, Hyman Zettler
The "Trust Fund" Theory: A Study In Psychology, Hyman Zettler
Washington Law Review
The trust fund doctrine was one of the most interesting judicial creations of the last half of the nineteenth century. It performed and still performs a very useful function, but it has suffered much from its unfortunate name. In some jurisdictions the result has been an undue curtailment of its functions; in others, an undue extension of them. The doctrine has apparently come in for its most extensive application in our own jurisdiction. Indeed, it is here reaching out for new fields. It is, therefore, important for us to know the real scope of the theory and whether it should …
The Income Tax Liability Of Dividends In Liquidation, Roswell F. Magill
The Income Tax Liability Of Dividends In Liquidation, Roswell F. Magill
Michigan Law Review
The development of a scheme at once equitable and constitutional for the taxation of corporate distributions has been one of the more difficult problems confronting Congress and the courts since the adoption of the income tax amendment. Doubtless the chief reason for this difficulty has been the fact that the income tax liability of a shareholder upon such a distribution "has not been determinable merely by ascertaining whether the amounts received are the variety of receipts commonly regarded by their recipients as income,- in a word, by determining whether they constitute a "gain" to the shareholder. Rather, it is a …

Interest On Claims In Receivership Proceedings, Ralph E. Clark
Michigan Law Review
Outside the cases of receivership, the Supreme Court of the United States has said: "We reach the conclusion that whatever may have been the English and early American rule, the tendency in Virginia as elsewhere in this country, is to allow interest on contracts to pay money from the date that the debt becomes due."'
The Federal Bankruptcy Act And Its Effect On State Insolvency Laws, Evans Holbrook
The Federal Bankruptcy Act And Its Effect On State Insolvency Laws, Evans Holbrook
Articles
Since Sturgis v. Crowninshield, 4 Wheat. 122, it has been clear that State Insolvency Laws were valid (within certain well-defined limits) during the non-existence of a Federal Bankruptcy Act, and that upon the enactment of a Federal Bankruptcy Act the State laws were superseded and suspended so far as they were in conflict with the Federal legislation. The difficulty has been in determining when there was such conflict, and it has arisen in various ways. For instance, the Federal Bankruptcy Act permits any natural person to become a voluntary bankrupt, but provides that no involuntary proceedings shall be taken against …
Insurance Policies As Assets In Bankruptcy, Evans Holbrook
Insurance Policies As Assets In Bankruptcy, Evans Holbrook
Articles
The Supreme Court of the United States, in the recent case of Cohen v. Samuels, 38 Sup. Ct. 36, has put an end to a method, approved by some of the lower Federal Courts, whereby a person could create a fund which would be completely under his control but which would nevertheless be protected against any claim on the part of his trustee in bankruptcy. The circumstances in the principal case were as follows: Samuels had taken out ordinary life insurance policies, with the usual provisions as to loan and surrender values, payable to certain of his relatives as beneficiaries, …

When Is A Preferential Transfer 'Required' To Be Recorded? , Evans Holbrook
Articles
The BANKRUPTCY ACT of 1898 (as amended in 1903 and 1910), after defining a preference, provides in § 60b that preferences made under certain circumstances may be recovered from the preferred creditor if the latter had "reasonable cause to believe" that a preference was to be effected "at the time of the transfer * * * or of the recording or registering of the transfer if by law recording or registering thereof is required," such time being within four months before bankruptcy. Bankrupcty courts have for years been vexed with the question: When is a transfer "required" to be recorded …

Execution Sales As Preferential Transfers In Bankruptcy, Evans Holbrook
Articles
In the recent case of Golden Hill Distilling Co. v. Logue, 243 Fed. 342, the Circuit Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit holds that a "creditor who recovers a judgment, by consent or in invitum, and by execution sale collects his money within four months preceding bankruptcy, and with reasonable cause to believe [that a preference would thereby be effected] receives a voidable preference, which he must repay to the trustee." This question is one that has vexed the bankruptcy courts ever since the Supreme Court of the United States in Clarke v. Larremore, 188 U. S. 486, declined …

The Death of President Angell - The death of Dr. James Burrill ANGELL, president-emeritus of the university, has deprived the law school of a sympathetic and helpful friend. Such was the catholicity of Dr. ANGL'S mind and his intellectual interests that probably all departments of the university felt and had good reason to feel that he was in some special sense the interested friend of each.

Attempt, Assault, and Assault with Intent - The case of State v. Lewis, decided in October, 1915, by the Supreme Court of Iowa, has an interesting bearing upon the law of assault and of criminal attempts. Two men, Tropp and Cox, observed a third, Dunlevy, asleep on a cot with a pocketbook under his pillow. Tropp armed himself with a leather sap and a loaded revolver and moved quietly to the head of the cot, when Dunlevy, feeling the presence of some one in the room, sprang to his feet. Tropp fled from the room with Dunlevy after him, but …

Articles
In the recent case of Carey v. Donohue, 36 Sup. Ct. 386, the Supreme Court of the United States has passed on a question that has for years been vexing the Circuit Courts of Appeals, namely: When is the recording of a preferential transfer "required" under § 60 of the'Bankruptcy Act of 1898 as amended in 1903 and 1910. § 60a (as amended in 1903) defines a preference as a transaction by which property of an insolvent debtor is transferred, within four months before his bankruptcy, in such a way that the debt owing to one of his creditors will …

Legislative Power to Restrict Freedom of Labor Contracts -The struggle between the police power of the legislature and the nineteenth century idea of due process of law continues unremittingly. That increasing social necessities and a more comprehensive and perfect conception of justice have resulted in recent years in restricting the "due process" clauses in federal and state constitutions to their historically and logically more correct meaning and scope there can be no doubt. Scores, if not hundreds, of decisions by our courts and conspicuously those of the United States Supreme Court have shown complete recognition of the fact that the …

Cases On The Law Of Bankruptcy: Including The Law Of Fraudulent Conveyances, Evans Holbrook, Ralph W. Aigler
Cases On The Law Of Bankruptcy: Including The Law Of Fraudulent Conveyances, Evans Holbrook, Ralph W. Aigler
Books
This collection of cases is the result of several years' work in the class-room by both of the editors. It is obvious that there are difficulties in the teaching of a subject based entirely on a statute, especially in the years immediately following the adoption of the statute, when its provisions have not yet been passed on by the courts; now, however, a considerable body of authoritative judicial interpretation of the Bankruptcy Act of 1898 has grown up, and it is hoped that the cases contained in this volume will serve to show the effective structure that has been constructed …

Discharge In Bankruptcy Of Principal's Inchoate Obligation To Indemnify His Surety, Evans Holbrook
Articles
In the recent case of R. P. Williams, et al. v. United States Fidelity and Guaranty Company, 35 Sup. Ct. 289, the United States Supreme Court has at last passed upon a question that has vexed the courts ever since the enactment of the Bankruptcy Act of 1898. As stated by the Supreme Court, the question is this: "Does a discharge in bankruptcy acquit an express obligation of the principal to indemnify his surety against loss by reason of their joint bond conditioned to secure his faithful performance of a building contract broken prior to the bankruptcy when the surety …
