Administrative Tribunals-Operation Of Administrative Orders As Res Judicata Apr 1929

Administrative Tribunals-Operation Of Administrative Orders As Res Judicata

Michigan Law Review

To the layman res judicata is simply another one of those esoteric legal subterfuges by which lawyers evade the simple facts and win lawsuits for their clients. So he shrugs his shoulders at the whole silly business and confines his interest in the law to the dramatic trio: great crimes, great names, and great figures. To the lawyer, principle is dominant. Though he may quibble over its spelling, he recognizes res judicata as a sound working principle and is interested in the popular case mainly because good legal talent will be employed, capable arguments presented, and sound decisions reached.

Arbitration Under The Modern Statutes Jun 1925

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. …

Courts In The Philippines Old New, David Cecil Johnson Feb 1916

Courts In The Philippines Old New, David Cecil Johnson

Michigan Law Review

Administration of justice, involving the settlement of disputes and the punishment of crime, is and always has been a vital function of government; in fact, it might well be said to be the basis of all orderly government. The experiment in government which was begun by the American people when they separated themselves from the domination of England reached a new stage in its development when Admiral Dewey was victorious in Manila Bay on May i, 1898. It is perhaps impossible to determine at this time whether this new stage is to result in an attempt at colonization or in …

Comparison Of Some Methods Of Conciliation And Arbitration Of Industrial Disputes, James H. Brewster

Michigan Law Review

In these times when we see combinations of employers co-operating under trade agreements with combinations of employees to conduct immense industries, we are apt to forget the remarkable development of ideas concerning industrial economy that has occurred within a life-time. It was only eighty years ago that the merchants of Boston met to discountenance and check what were then" regarded as unlawful combinations of workmen formed to protest against the long work day, low wages, and oppressive rules of their masters. The sum of $20,0oo was raised at this meeting of merchants and ship owners to fight the movement for …

International Arbitration, Joseph B. Moore May 1909

International Arbitration, Joseph B. Moore

Michigan Law Review

The history of the race whether considered as one of individuals or as nations has been one of struggle. Did one individual fancy another had done him a wrong, he proceeded to right that wrong himself by the exercise of force. From the day when Cain killed his brother Abel, for many centuries contests between individuals were settled, not as justice dictated, but by brute force. The result was a disorderly condition of society unfavorable to peaceful conditions. In the evolution of the race, when men differed, instead of attempting to settle their differences by force, tribunals were brought into …

War Arbitration And Peace, William Perry Rogers Dec 1905

War Arbitration And Peace, William Perry Rogers

Michigan Law Review

In examining any question which pertains to the welfare of humanity there are two prominent view points from which to start. One is that of the individual being; the isolated man; the unit of society. The other is that of the mass of mankind; the people as a whole; the corporate organization of states and nations. There are those who believe in a God of nations. They believe He guides their destinies in perils of battle, and in great and dangerous emergencies; but they insist that He has little or nothing to do with the affairs of the individual. Conversely, …
