Contracts-Doctrine Of "Commercial Frustration" As Applied To Leases Of Real Property, Margaret Groefsema S. Ed.
Michigan Law Review
A mushroom crop of litigation has sprung up as a result of wartime governmental restrictions on production and consumption of civilian goods, particularly with respect to regulations of the sale of gasoline, tires, automobiles, and automobile accessories. Numerous problems have confronted the courts involving leases of property for the purpose of selling or servicing motor vehicles, where the lessee has sought to be released from his covenant to pay rent by invoking the so-called doctrine of "commercial frustration."
United States - Contracts - Effect, When Tax Is Declared Unconstitutional, Of Provisions For Increase Or Decrease Of Purchase Price For Taxes "Imposed" Or "Changed", Wilbur Jacobs
Michigan Law Review
Between May 1935 and January 1936 the federal government purchased flour from respondent through contracts which contained a so-called "up and down" tax clause. The basic price charged included the A.A.A. processing taxes. During this same period respondent obtained an injunction against the collection of said processing taxes and, as a result of the decision of the Supreme Court in United States v. Butler, was relieved of liability for the tax. In a later suit brought by respondent in the Court of Claims to recover on other contracts, the government claimed a setoff for the amount of these taxes. …

The Effect Of The Contract Clause And The Fourteenth Amendment Upon The Power Of The States To Control Municipal Corporations, E. B. Schulz
The Effect Of The Contract Clause And The Fourteenth Amendment Upon The Power Of The States To Control Municipal Corporations, E. B. Schulz
Michigan Law Review
Although the power to establish systems of local government is reserved to the states under the Federal Constitution, they are obliged to exercise it in conformity with the limitations, direct or indirect, by which their powers in general are circumscribed. Since a state lacks authority to delegate powers which it does not possess, it may not confer upon municipal corporations, to cite but a few examples, the power to pass ex post facto laws and bills of attainder, to coin money, to emit bills of credit, to regulate foreign and interstate commerce, or to levy taxes for strictly private purposes. …

Legal Problems In National Merchandising, Richard Ford

The Liability For Taxes And Assessments Between Vendor And Purchaser
The Liability For Taxes And Assessments Between Vendor And Purchaser
Michigan Law Review
This note is concerned with the rights and duties, inter se, of vendor and purchaser with respect to the burden of taxation. The problem presents itself in the simplest form when it arises in a suit for specific performance, the question being whether the contract obligated vendor to remove the lien of certain taxes (or allow the purchaser a credit against the purchase price), or, on the other hand, obligated purchaser to pay the whole price for the encumbered land (or pay vendor, in addition to purchase price, the amount of tax previously paid by the latter). The question …
Vendor And Purchaser-Vendee's Lien-Failure Of Title
Vendor And Purchaser-Vendee's Lien-Failure Of Title
Michigan Law Review
The vendee of a contract for the sale of land discovered that there was great doubt as to whether the buildings were within the bounds described in the contract and whether there were encroachments. Alleging that these defects could not be corrected, he brought a bill in equity seeking cancellation of the contract and praying for a lien upon the lands for the money paid and the expenses incurred. The vendor counter-claimed for specific performance. Held, where the purchaser properly invokes the jurisdiction of the court and where it would be inequitable to compel specific performance, so far as …

Sales - Warranty - Theory Of Implied Assignment
Michigan Law Review
In the recent case of Wood v. Advance Rumely Thresher Co., the following relevant facts appeared: the plaintiff signed an order for a tractor, knowing that the defendant's agent, who solicited the order, had no power to make a binding contract, and knowing, from the face of the order, that there would be no contract till it was accepted at the defendant's home office. The agent's employment was terminated before he sent the order in, so he turned it over to another dealer. The latter did not forward the order to the defendant, but wrote a new one, signed …

Michigan Law Review

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?

Resale Price Fixing From A Different Angle
Resale Price Fixing From A Different Angle
Michigan Law Review
The proposition that resale price fixing agreements are illegal, while by no means universally accepted, is definitely established in the federal courts as well as in quite a number of the state courts. Whatever we may think of its soundness from an economic viewpoint it will doubtless receive even wider recognition as time goes on. For a collection and discussion of the authorities see 20 MICH. L. REV. 904; 19 MICH. L. REV. 265; 19 A. L. R. 925.
