Carriers-Statute Of Limitations For Bringing Suit For Injury To Goods Dec 1927

Carriers-Statute Of Limitations For Bringing Suit For Injury To Goods

Michigan Law Review

A recent case decided by the Supreme Court of the United States suggests the query-ls there a federal statute of limitations for bringing suit for injury to goods in an interstate shipment? The answer depends on the interpretation of the Cummins Amendment of March 4, 1915 and the Transportation Act of 1920. The relevant and germane provision of these acts as to the time limit for commencing suit for injury to goods on an interstate carriage is "That it shall be unlawful for any such common carrier to provide by rule, contract, or regulation a shorter period for giving notice …

Activity Subsequent To Interstate Commerce, Elcanon Isaacs May 1927

Activity Subsequent To Interstate Commerce, Elcanon Isaacs

Michigan Law Review

With the commerce clause as the basis of distinction, courts have divided business into two classes, that which is interstate and that which is not. The first is considered to involve transportation across state boundary lines; the second is referred to business in which the crossing of state lines is not a factor. It must appear, however, in a consideration of the second class, that activity which is local because it has never involved movement requires a different approach from activity which is local because transportation has ended. The former must be analyzed for its intrinsic nature; it may even …


The Uniform Sales Act In The State Of Washington, Leslie J. Ayer Feb 1927

The Uniform Sales Act In The State Of Washington, Leslie J. Ayer

Washington Law Review

The Uniform Sales Act was enacted by the State of Washington at the extraordinary session of its legislature convened November 9, 1925, and adjourned January 7, 1926. Under constitutional provision 2 this law went into effect ninety days after the adjournment of the session at which it was enacted. The advantages of uniformity of legislation in matters pertaining to commercial subjects seems so obvious as to require but slight comment. In laws relating to commercial subjects, conditions and problems are rarely of a local nature, and in view of the great amount of trading which exists between the several states, …


The Trust Receipt—Its Possible Legal Status In Washington, Harry O. Arend Feb 1927

The Trust Receipt—Its Possible Legal Status In Washington, Harry O. Arend

Washington Law Review

Within a period of comparatively recent date there has crept into commercial usage an instrument known as the trust receipt. Because of the extensive use now being made of the trust receipt in Washington, it is well to become acquainted with some of its legal aspects. In British law the rights of the lending bank under the trust receipt have been steadfastly upheld on the ground that the trust receipt is a necessary instrument of commerce. This view has been quite generally followed in the American courts, with the difference, however, that the courts deem it a part of their …

Passenger Tickets As Contracts, Edwin C. Goddard Nov 1926

Passenger Tickets As Contracts, Edwin C. Goddard

Michigan Law Review

The most important right of the common carrier of passengers is his right to compensation. He carries for hire. This compensation he ordinarily collects by selling to the prospective passenger a ticket. Of these tickets there are many varieties, from the simple rectangular bit of cardboard, with the printed statement that it is good for one ride from X to Y, to the long coupon ticket, with elaborate provisions in fine print, providing for the passenger knows not what. What is the legal character of this ticket?

Carriers-Can Carrier Who Delivers To Improper Person Replevy From The Vendee Of That Person?

Michigan Law Review

When a carrier delivers goods to an improper person, a nice question arises as to whether the carrier may recover the goods from a bona fide purchaser who bought from the one to whom the carrier delivered. Let us consider first a comparatively simple case.

The Assignment Of Merchants' Book Accounts As Security, Robert B. Porterfield

Washington Law Review

Repudiating the rule commonly attributed to the famous case of Dearie v. Hall, a rule which for at least 70 years had been understood to be the rule of the Federal courts, the United States Supreme court decided in 1924 that as between successive assignees of the same chose in action, mere priority of notice did not give priority of right.

Carriers-Limit Of Liability In Bill Of Lading Where Carrier Converts Shipment

Michigan Law Review

The Carmack and Cummins Amendments to the act of 1887 have wrought some startling changes in the law applicable to interstate shipments. But the end is not yet. The provision in those amendments which makes the initial carrier liable on a bona fide contract, to the amount fixed in the published tariff, "for loss, damage or injury to such property, caused by it or by any common carrier * * * to which such property may be delivered or over whose line or lines such property may pass", provokes the question as to how broadly that provision is going to …
