Notice Requirements Of Guaranty Contracts, Richard F. Dole Jr.

Michigan Law Review

The following is an attempt to verify Corbin's educated guess through the application of factual analysis. If significant facts can be isolated which produce the same result regardless of the theory applied by the court, no real conflict can be said to exist. An initial exploration of the problems involved is a prerequisite to delineating the area in which factual analysis must be used.

Restitution -- 1962 Tennessee Survey, John W. Wade

Vanderbilt Law Review

For the prevention of unjust enrichment of a defendant the courts make available a number of restitutionary remedies to a plaintiff. These remedies developed separately, and they differ somewhat in their characteristics, but during recent years writers have seen that there is a single principle underlying them all, whether they are administered at law or in equity.

Reflections On The Nature Of Labor Arbitration, R. W. Fleming

Michigan Law Review

The use of arbitration as a means of settling labor-management disputes has increased steadily in the past twenty years. Recent decisions of the Supreme Court have underlined the importance of the process. The natural tendency is to compare labor arbitration with the court system as an adjudicatory process. There are, however, significant differences between the two, and this needs to be better understood.

An intelligent evaluation of the differences, and of the labor arbitration tribunal in general, can be made only after an exploration of its origin and history, and after some consideration of the kinds of cases which are …

A Radical Restatement Of The Law Of Seller's Damages: Michigan Results Compared, Robert J. Harris

Michigan Law Review

Conventional doctrine does not address itself directly to the choice among valuation techniques, although the various parochial damage formulae give some clues. Underlying this series of articles is an assumption that the doctrine makes more sense when restated in valuation terms. These articles involve an effort to restate in such terms one sector of expectation damage law-the part that governs cases in which plaintiff is a "seller."

Actions In Contract Resulting From Aircraft Crashes, Stephen M. Feldman

Cleveland State Law Review

The purpose of this article is to examine possible causes of actions sounding in contract available in cases of death or personal injuries arising out of aircraft crashes. The ability of the plaintiff to sustain an action in contract may have a decisive effect on the outcome of the litigation in any one of the following respects: First, as a general rule the law of the place of the accident governs tort actions, while the law of the place of contracting governs contract actions and for one of several reasons it may be advantageous to the plaintiff to avoid the …

Section 301 And The Primary Jurisdiction Of The Nlrb, Michael I. Sovern

Faculty Scholarship

Several labor cases recently decided by the Supreme Court have brought into issue a conflict between the NLRB's primary jurisdiction over matters subject to sections 7 and 8 of the NLRA and the doctrine that courts have jurisdiction to enforce collective agreements. Professor Sovern discusses these cases and argues that the Court properly decided that the principle of exclusive NLRB jurisdiction should yield in suits on collective agreements, but he criticizes the Court for not having articulated a satisfactory rationale in support of this result. After an analysis of the doctrine of preemption, he considers five types of labor-contract suits …
