The Premises Of The Judgment As Res Judicata In Continental And Anglo-American Law, Robert Wyness Millar Dec 1940

The Premises Of The Judgment As Res Judicata In Continental And Anglo-American Law, Robert Wyness Millar

Michigan Law Review

The newly reconstituted Supreme Court of the United States has become the center of an earnest controversy with respect to the true role of the Court in constitutional interpretation. The general controversy is, of course, far from new. What makes it of more than ordinary significance is that the Court itself is revealing a tendency substantially to alter the extent, if not the nature, of judicial review. This tendency has not yet become clearly dominant, but it is apparent enough to shake the implicit faith in the Court of many of those to whom, before 1937, any criticism of the …

The German Law-Suit Without Lawyers, Simon E. Baldwin Nov 1909

The German Law-Suit Without Lawyers, Simon E. Baldwin

Michigan Law Review

As in the Roman practice, during the formulary period, there were two judicial stages to every law-suit, one in which the issue was determined and: the mode of trial directed, and another for the trial itself, so there are two judicial stages to every German law-suit. In the first, the court finds out what is really in controversy; in the second is the trial. In most cases there must be written pleadings drawn by lawyers, and a trial conducted by lawyers. A plaintiff is not allowed to conduct his own cause in any of the higher courts. But the plaintiff …
