The Role Of Comity In The Law Of Federal Courts, Michael L. Wells

Scholarly Works

Considerations of comity often require federal courts to defer to state courts when federal issues could be raised in state proceedings. Contexts in which such deference is required include Younger abstention, habeus corpus exhaustion and procedural default, and Pullman and Burford abstention. In this Article, Professor Wells demonstrates that the Supreme Court's opinions fail to make a distinction between cases where comity requires restraint and those where it does not. The Court's motive in invoking comity is not to decrease access to federal courts, but instead to strike a compromise between the individual's interest in a federal forum and the …

A Personal View Of Justice Benjamin N. Cardozo: Recollections Of Four Cardozo Law Clerks, Joseph L. Rauh Jr., Melvin Siegel, Ambrose Doskow, Alan M. Stroock

Cardozo Law Review

A personal view of Justice Benjamin N. Cardozo and his approach to the law is perhaps best provided by those who worked under his direct tutelage. Four men who served as law clerks to the Justice during his six year term on the Supreme Court agreed to share their reflections on that experience in this commemorative volume. Joseph Rauh, the Justice's last law clerk, wrote first; his recollections were then circulated among the other three: Melvin Siegel, Ambrose Doskow and Alan M. Stroock. Their responses to Mr. Rauh's memories of the Justice and his judicial style present intriguing contrasts and …

Shortly before noon on February 15, 1932, Herbert Cone, confidential clerk to the New York Court of Appeals, went to the Albany train station to pick up Chief Judge Benjamin Cardozo and to give him a message. He told Cardozo that Lawrence Richey, special secretary to President Hoover, had tried to reach him at his New York office earlier that morning and had asked that he call the President as soon as he reached Albany.

An Essay On The Determination Of Relevancy Under The Federal Rules Of Evidence, Arthur H. Travers Jr.

Publications

The scope of the general definition of "relevant evidence" in the Federal Rules of Evidence is ambiguous. It is unclear whether Congress, for instance, intended that certain issues be considered legislatively determined or that those issues rest within the discretion of the courts. There is also some uncertainty over the definition's applicability to several types of evidence--particularly undisputed facts such as those that provide background information or are judicially admitted.
