Abortion Rights, Eileen Kaufman
Giving Notice: An Argument For Notification Of Putative Plaintiffs In Complex Litigation, Marjorie A. Silver
Giving Notice: An Argument For Notification Of Putative Plaintiffs In Complex Litigation, Marjorie A. Silver
Scholarly Works
Professor Silver advocates recognition of an inherent judicial power to send or authorize notice of pending litigation to potentially interested persons with unfiled claims. Recognizing such a judicial power is consistent with recent legal developments establishing a role for judges in expediting and managing federal litigation. Although the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure only explicitly provide for notice to potential parties in Rule 23 class action litigation, Professor Silver demonstrates that a more general judicial power to notify putative plaintiffs is consistent with the federal rules and the Constitution. She also shows that the first amendment values support a judicial …
Service Of Process Abroad: A Study Of The Adequate Notice Requirement, Jan H.F. Schamp
Service Of Process Abroad: A Study Of The Adequate Notice Requirement, Jan H.F. Schamp
LLM Theses and Essays
This LL.M. thesis provides a comprehensive comparative analysis of the adequate notice requirement in transnational service of process, examining the interplay between United States constitutional standards, European Communities conventions, and international treaty law. The work begins with a functional analysis of service of process, tracing its dual role as an assertion of territorial jurisdiction and as a mechanism for defendant notification across the American legal system, traditional English Common Law, and the Civil Law tradition. It then undertakes a detailed comparison of the "due notice" requirement under the Due Process Clause of the United States Constitution with the analogous protections …
Preclusion And Procedural Due Process In Rule 23(B)(2) Class Actions, Mark C. Weber
Preclusion And Procedural Due Process In Rule 23(B)(2) Class Actions, Mark C. Weber
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
This Article examines whether Rule 23(b)(2) violates the procedural due process rights of absent class members by binding them to the judgment in a class case without notice of the suit. It concludes that the Rule almost certainly violates due process and proposes a reform that would permit nonbinding class actions similar to the old "spurious" class suits.

Compulsory Process, Right To, Peter K. Westen
Book Chapters
The first state to adopt a constitution following the Declaration of Independence (New Jersey, 1776) guaranteed all criminal defendants the same ‘‘privileges of witnesses’’ as their prosecutors. Fifteen years later, in enumerating the constitutional rights of accused persons, the framers of the federal Bill of Rights bifurcated what New Jersey called the ‘‘privileges of witnesses’’ into two distinct but related rights: the Sixth Amendment right of the accused ‘‘to be confronted with the witnesses against him,’’ and his companion Sixth Amendment right to ‘‘compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor.’’ The distinction between witnesses ‘‘against’’ the accused and witnesses …

Admiralty Arrest Procedures Fail The Due Process Test: Alyeska Pipeline Service Company V. Vessel Bay Ridge, Lance B. Nelson
Admiralty Arrest Procedures Fail The Due Process Test: Alyeska Pipeline Service Company V. Vessel Bay Ridge, Lance B. Nelson
Seattle University Law Review
The maritime lien plays an important role in facilitating the smooth operation of maritime commerce. Suppliers and others who do business with vessels are more likely to extend credit to even a strange or foreign ship because the remedy of a maritime lien is available. Without the lien the vessel would no longer serve as security for any contractual or tort liability she might incur and some other form of security would be required prior to dealing with the vessel. Arranging for letters of credit or similar security could prove costly and in some instances delay the vessel. Moreover, the …

Civil Procedure-Judgements-Mutuauty As Requirement For Assertion Of Collateral Estoppel Against Claimant Who Was Claimee In Prior Action, William E. Wickens
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff corporations, the sole shareholder of which was their president, sued defendant insurers to recover for the alleged theft of the corporations' furs. In an earlier criminal action, the president (conceded by the corporations to be their mere alter ego for purposes of res judicata) had been convicted of attempted grand theft, conspiracy to commit grand theft, and the filing of fraudulent insurance claims for loss of the same furs; it was there determined that the president had staged the theft of the furs. In plaintiffs' civil action, the superior court rejected defendants' plea of collateral estoppel as to the …

Constitutional Law - Due Process - Notice Required To Validate Tax Foreclosure Of Property Of Known Mental Incompetent, Frank M. Lacey S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
On May 8, 1952, the town of Somers instituted an action to foreclose a number of tax liens. One of these was upon the property owned by a person known in the community to be a mental incompetent, but who had not yet been so certified by a court. Notice was given to the incompetent taxpayer in compliance with the statute by mail, posting, and publication. When she failed to answer within the prescribed period, foreclosure was entered and a deed to her property delivered to the town. Five days later she was declared a person of unsound mind, and …

Michigan Law Review
The case of United States v. One De Soto Sedan has again focused attention on some of the perplexing problems raised by the statutory imposition of both criminal and civil sanctions for the same wrongful act. The court held that an acquittal in a criminal prosecution for possessing liquor on which no federal tax had been paid was a bar to a civil in rem proceeding to forfeit claimant's car as having been used in the removal, deposit and concealment of the same liquor with intent to defraud the United States of taxes. Since the two proceedings involved the same …
Judgments-Setting Aside-Failure Of "Local Agent" To Notify Corporation Of Service Of Summons, Lloyd J. Tyler, Jr.
Judgments-Setting Aside-Failure Of "Local Agent" To Notify Corporation Of Service Of Summons, Lloyd J. Tyler, Jr.
Michigan Law Review
Service of summons was made upon a ticket agent employed by a lessee of the defendant coach line in accordance with a North Carolina statute which provides that any person receiving or collecting money within the state for a corporation is a ''local agent" for the purpose of service of process. This agent did not notify the defendant corporation of the summons, and a default judgment was entered. On appeal it was held that the judgment should not be set aside for want of service of summons, since the ticket agent was within the statutory definition of ''local agent." The …

Parties - Whether Action For Money Judgment By Holder Of Unsecured Bonds Constitutes "Class" Suit Binding On All Owners Of That Series Who Did Not Appear, William Houston
Michigan Law Review
The Chicago Board of Education had issued a certain series of refunding bonds, and later defaulted on interest coupons, numbered 16, attached to the bonds. Prior to the present suit a suit in equity had been instituted against the board by some of the owners of these bonds, on behalf of themselves and all other owners of bonds in this series, in which they prayed for judgment for the amount of interest due to each owner, together with costs, and attorney's fees. Defendant made a motion, to dismiss that suit on the ground that such action could not be maintained …
Service As A Requirement Of Due Process In Actions In Personam, Charles Kellogg Burdick
Service As A Requirement Of Due Process In Actions In Personam, Charles Kellogg Burdick
Michigan Law Review
A prime requisite of due process is, of course, that the court shall have jurisdiction of the subject-matter. "To give such proceedings any validity, there must be a tribunal competent by its constitution-that is, by the law of its creation-to pass upon the subject-matter of the suit."' In proceedings in personam-proceedings to determine the personal liability of the defendant, no property being brought by the proceedings within the control of the court-the court must also have jurisdiction of the defendant. Attempts have repeatedly been made to take jurisdiction of nonresident defendants through service by publication or through personal service made …
Due Process Of Law In Procedure, Edson R. Sunderland
Due Process Of Law In Procedure, Edson R. Sunderland
Articles
There are two classes of cases which may arise under the "due process" provisions of the 5th and 14th Amendments of the United States Constitution, so far as rules of procedure are concerned. One embraces cases of new remedial processes which may be criticized as too radical. The other consists of cases of old processes which may be criticized as obsolete and out of harmony with prevailing conceptions of justice. Due process may thus be said to fill the wide space between those innovations which carry us so far away from established methods as to remove the safeguards which are …
