Uniform Law Procedure In Federal Courts, Conner Hall
Uniform Law Procedure In Federal Courts, Conner Hall
West Virginia Law Review
A great drive is being made for the passage of a bill for investing the Supreme Court with power to prescribe rules of procedure for law actions in the Federal Courts. A committee of the American Bar Association, or perhaps rather a small number of a committee, has been active in propaganda work for the proposed legislation. Great names have been invoked, and meetings of the Bar Association and lawyers have been passing resolutions in favor of the bill, but the very unanimity with which some of these resolutions have been passed confirms a natural belief that the action was …

Curiosities Of The Law-Mandatory Injunctions In The Double Negative
Curiosities Of The Law-Mandatory Injunctions In The Double Negative
Michigan Law Review
The ridiculous practice of framing mandatory injunctions in the double negative seems to have originated in the famous case of Lane v. Newdigate. The bill was filed by a tenant of a water power mill against his landlord, who owned other lands upon the mill stream, to enforce covenants in the lease, praying specifically that defendant be decreed to remove certain locks which he had erected and restore certain gates and canals which he had destroyed or failed to keep in repair. The case came before Lord Eldon on a motion for a temporary injunction, which was heard ex …
Privity Of Parties And Attack For Fraud On Judgments Of Sister State
Privity Of Parties And Attack For Fraud On Judgments Of Sister State
Michigan Law Review
An interesting recent decision in Minnesota, Schendel v. C. M. & St. P. Ry. Co., raises two important questions concerning the effect to be given in one state of the Union to a judgment rendered in the courts of another. An action was brought in Minnesota by a special administrator, there appointed, to recover damages for the death of his decedent. The accident resulting in death had occurred in Iowa while the decedent, it was claimed, was engaged in inter-state commerce, so as to bring the claim within the federal statute. To this Minnesota action the defendant set up …
Witnesses--When Interpreters May Be Used
Witnesses--When Interpreters May Be Used
Michigan Law Review
A novel situation in regard to the use of interpreters was presented in People v. Walker (Cal. App. 1924) 231 Pac. 572. The prosecution called a witness who was brought in in a crippled and weak condition. He was asked questions, but "the witness could give forth no sound, not even a whisper, by means of the organs of Speech." While the record was not clear whether there was any movement of his lips whatever, at least there was none which conveyed to any person but his wife the impression that he attempted to put forth articulate speech in response …
Arbitration Under The Modern Statutes
Arbitration Under The Modern Statutes
Michigan Law Review
Of late years the way of the "fair and free trial in open court," to which every man is deemed to have an inalienable right, has become so long, devious, intricate and costly, that the law faces the danger of falling into general disrepute. The calendars of courts in most jurisdictions ·are crowded and filled for months and years in advance. the situation being most acute in the larger cities and commercial centers. the very places where delays are most undesirable. New York City serves as a horrible example-here an ordinary case generally takes three years to come to trial. …
Constitutional Law-Jury Trial For Contempt-Constitutionality Of Clayton Act
Constitutional Law-Jury Trial For Contempt-Constitutionality Of Clayton Act
Michigan Law Review
The defendants, striking employees of a railway company, were proceeded against in a federal district court for contempt in violating a preliminary injunction, and demanded a jury trial under the Clayton Act (c. 323, 38 STAT. 738, sec. 21, 22), which provides that in cases of wilful disobedience of "any lawful writ, process, order, rule, decree, or command of any District court of the United States or any court of the District of Columbia by doing any act or thing" forbidden, if such act or thing also constitutes a criminal offense under any statute of the United States or law …
Trial Practice--Duty Of The Court To Instruct The Jury In The Absence Of A Request For Instructions
Trial Practice--Duty Of The Court To Instruct The Jury In The Absence Of A Request For Instructions
Michigan Law Review
A series of cases recently decided in Georgia brings to mind the interesting question as to whether the court is bound to give instructions upon the law of the case in the absence of a specific request therefor. See Slocumb v. State, 157 Ga. 131; Fort v. State, 121 S. E. 128; Hatfield v. State, 121 S. E. 129; Walker v. State, 121 S. E. 130; Bullard v. State, 121 S. E. 130; Coney v. State, 121 S. E. 132, and Riggs v. State (1924) 121 S. E. 142. In none of these cases …

From the chapter Introduction: "The object of the preceding chapters is to show the brief maker where to find the material for his brief, how to find it, and how to select out of the mass of material found that which will be suitable for his use.... The present purpose is to outline a course of investigation suitable to the preparation of a case for trial and to suggest methods of making the material collected during the search for authorities readily available."

Admiralty - Workmen's Compensation - Is a Hydroplane a Vessel? - Claimant was employed in the care and management of a hydroplane which was moored in navigable waters. The hydroplane began to drag anchor and drift toward the beach, where it was in danger of being wrecked. Claimant waded into the water and was struck by the propeller. Held, claimant is not entitled to compensation under the Workmen's Compensation Law, since a hydroplane while on navigable waters is a vessel, and therefore the jurisdiction of the admiralty excludes that of the State Industrial Commission. Reinhardt v. Newport Flying Service Corp. …
Service As A Requirement Of Due Process In Actions In Personam, Charles Kellogg Burdick
Service As A Requirement Of Due Process In Actions In Personam, Charles Kellogg Burdick
Michigan Law Review
A prime requisite of due process is, of course, that the court shall have jurisdiction of the subject-matter. "To give such proceedings any validity, there must be a tribunal competent by its constitution-that is, by the law of its creation-to pass upon the subject-matter of the suit."' In proceedings in personam-proceedings to determine the personal liability of the defendant, no property being brought by the proceedings within the control of the court-the court must also have jurisdiction of the defendant. Attempts have repeatedly been made to take jurisdiction of nonresident defendants through service by publication or through personal service made …

The Right Of A Jury In A Criminal Case To Render A Verdict Against The Law And The Evidence, Edson R. Sunderland
The Right Of A Jury In A Criminal Case To Render A Verdict Against The Law And The Evidence, Edson R. Sunderland
Articles
One George D. Horning was convicted of the criminal offense of doing business as a pawnbroker in the District of Columbia without a license. The jury, which rendered the verdict of guilty, were told by the court, in the course of the charge, that there really was no issue of fact for them to decide; that the evidence showed a course of dealing constituting a breach of the law, and that they were not warranted in capriciously saying that the witnesses for the government and for the defendant were not telling the truth; that it was their duty to accept …
Due Process Of Law In Procedure, Edson R. Sunderland
Due Process Of Law In Procedure, Edson R. Sunderland
Articles
There are two classes of cases which may arise under the "due process" provisions of the 5th and 14th Amendments of the United States Constitution, so far as rules of procedure are concerned. One embraces cases of new remedial processes which may be criticized as too radical. The other consists of cases of old processes which may be criticized as obsolete and out of harmony with prevailing conceptions of justice. Due process may thus be said to fill the wide space between those innovations which carry us so far away from established methods as to remove the safeguards which are …

Nebulous Injunctions, Edgar N. Durfee
Articles
Injunctive relief is sought against alleged wrongdoing which is merely incidental to the conduct of a legitimate business. The wrong is established and the court is satisfied that an injunction should issue. Yet some nice questions remain as to the scope and terms of the decree.

Verdicts, General And Special, Edson R. Sunderland
Articles
The most remarkable thing about this case of Georgia v. Brailsford is that a matter of such elementary importance in the daily administration of the law, after being announced in so dramatic a way by the Supreme Court of the United States at the very threshold of its career, could have dropped into oblivion for a hundred years only to be repudiated in a way hardly less dramatic by a sharply divided court. The controversy here disclosed goes to the very heart of the jury system as it has been developed by the common law and is still almost universally …
New Trials For Technical Errors, Edson R. Sunderland
New Trials For Technical Errors, Edson R. Sunderland
Articles
A witness called to testify is presumed to be of good character. Hence no proof of it is necessary. But out of abundant caution this presumption is fortified by evidence. The witness is thus shown to be in fact exactly what the law presumes him to be. Result-the case is reversed for the commission of this grave and prejudicial error.-Lockett v. State (Ark. 1918), 207 S. W. 55. No one but an American lawyer could treat the above statement seriously. Only an American court could announce so extraordinary a decision. In no other English speaking country would the people tolerate …
