Federal Right Jurisdiction And The Declaratory Remedy, Herman L. Trautman Jun 1954

Federal Right Jurisdiction And The Declaratory Remedy, Herman L. Trautman

Vanderbilt Law Review

Why should we have federal district courts? What should be their primary function? These questions are fundamental to the formulation of a rational basis for the distribution of judicial power between state courts and the trial courts of the federal government.

Our American federal system seeks as a constant objective an appropriate division of governmental power between a national unit, which deals with problems requiring uniform treatment, and state units, which have responsibility for problems depending more upon local conditions. Applying the principle to the federal district courts, it seems clear that their primary function should be to adjudicate federal …

Levitt V. Angel, Yitzhak Olshan, Menachem Dunkelblum, Shneor Zalman Cheshin

Translated Opinions

The appellant, who had allowed third parties to occupy premises in breach of an injunction restraining him from so doing was convicted of contempt of court under the Contempt of Court Ordinance and was sentenced to a fine of I.L. 250 or three months imprisonment. This sentence was imposed on the appellant by the District Court not for the purpose of inducing him to comply with the terms of the injunction, which had become impossible, but as a punishment for its breach.

Held, allowing the appeal, that the purpose of the sanctions in the Contempt of Court Ordinance is to …

Neiman V. Military Governor Of The Occupied Area Of Jerusalem, Moshe Smoira, Shneor Zalman Cheshin, Yitzhak Olshan

Translated Opinions

The Petitioner, while employed by the Army as a civilian employee, assaulted a soldier and committed other acts constituting criminal offences under both military and civil law. After he had ceased to be so employed, the Petitioner was charged before a military court. He sought an order restraining the military court from proceeding with the charges on the grounds that he was not at the relevant time a soldier within the meaning of the Army Code, or alternatively that he had ceased to be a soldier when charged and that a military court therefore had no jurisdiction in the matter. …

Origin Of Equity Jurisdiction And Jurisprudence, Edward Murphy May 1930

Origin Of Equity Jurisdiction And Jurisprudence, Edward Murphy

Student Theses

Introductory Statement

It is not our purpose in this thesis to attempt a complete and detailed history of equity as it exists in England and in the United states. To do this would involve little more than a compilation of what has already been quite elaborately treated by some of the great legal minds of England and America.

We propose to treat rather of the nature of Equity as it existed in the Roman Law,its influence in the English law, the primitive condition of the law at the time of the origin of Equity, and of the causes which made …
