Resurrecting Incipiency: From Von's Grocery To Consumer Choice, Robert H. Lande Jan 2001

Resurrecting Incipiency: From Von's Grocery To Consumer Choice, Robert H. Lande

All Faculty Scholarship

The merger incipiency doctrine is virtually ignored in the courts today. This article argues that it should be resurrected, and it also explores the ways that effectuating Congressional intent in the area would reinvigorate merger policy.

The article documents how the legislative history of the antimerger statutes shows that Congress intended mergers to be evaluated under an incipiency approach, and explores the possible meanings of this idea. It then shows that this is a strong basis for reviving significantly stricter or more prophylactic merger enforcement.

The article shows how there are aspects of the doctrine that could be revived without …


The Wide World Of Torts: Reviewing Franklin & Rabin's Tort Law And Alternatives, Bernard W. Bell Jan 2001

The Wide World Of Torts: Reviewing Franklin & Rabin's Tort Law And Alternatives, Bernard W. Bell

Seattle University Law Review

In several respects, Franklin and Rabin's casebook provides a wonderful and effective vehicle for teaching torts, particularly to first-year students. The book develops important overarching themes while effectively presenting a wide variety of specific tort doctrines. The book also offers professors opportunities to sharpen students' legal abilities. In Part I of this review, I will discuss the first case in Franklin and Rabin's book and explain its usefulness in introducing several themes that both are critical to understanding tort law and assume a prominent place throughout the casebook. In Part II, I will focus on Franklin and Rabin's treatment of …


When Torts Is More Than A Series Of Accidents: Epstein On Torts, Victor Flatt Jan 2001

When Torts Is More Than A Series Of Accidents: Epstein On Torts, Victor Flatt

Seattle University Law Review

By using the Epstein book, the students learn the basics of torts in a way that is not frustrating, but in which they are still challenged by legal theory and pushed to think. Coupled with the interest and entertainment that are behind the choice of cases, I find the Epstein book to be very appropriate for our students. Of course, no book will fit everyone's needs or styles of teaching. But if you can determine what it is you wish to emphasize, both substantively and doctrinally, you can use this information to assist in selection. If, like me, you want …


A Review Of Torts And Compensation: Personal Accountability And Social Responsibility For Injury, Susan M. Gilles Jan 2001

A Review Of Torts And Compensation: Personal Accountability And Social Responsibility For Injury, Susan M. Gilles

Seattle University Law Review

I will review my selection of Dobbs and Hayden's Torts And Compensation, Personal Accountability And Social Responsibility For Injury (hereinafter "the Dobbs casebook") for use in my year-long first-year torts class. My review will focus on the third edition and will note changes made in the fourth edition, which came out recently. My hope is to tell you a little about the Dobbs casebook and a little about why I thought it would suit my incoming first-year students and my style of teaching. When selecting a casebook I have four main concerns: What is the coverage? Does the casebook employ …


Torts Teaching: From Basic Training To Legal-Process Theory: Dominick Vetri, Tort Law And Practice, Joseph A. Page Jan 2001

Torts Teaching: From Basic Training To Legal-Process Theory: Dominick Vetri, Tort Law And Practice, Joseph A. Page

Seattle University Law Review

It was in the course of my meanderings through the torts-casebook landscape that I came upon Professor Dominick Vetri's entry in the field. The quality that first attracted me was the way it fashioned a user-friendly introduction to the study of law, to the uniqueness of the common law, and to the centrality of process. The book demonstrated an unusual sensitivity to the bewilderment of beginners and made a special effort to anticipate their needs and concerns. Yet what made Vetri's approach particularly intriguing was that it managed to play not only to nervous neophytes, but also to students in …
