Crimes-Arrest-Reasonable Cause To Believe
Crimes-Arrest-Reasonable Cause To Believe
Michigan Law Review
The admission of evidence was objected to, in a recent case, on the ground that it had been illegally secured. Officers had arrested the defendant without a warrant, on a charge of illegally transporting liquor. He was in fact guilty of the offense for which arrested, but contended that the evidence secured by the arrest could not be used. The circuit court of appeals phrased the issue thus : ''Was there probable cause for the officers to believe (that the felony was being committed), or were the facts sufficient to give rise merely to a suspicion thereof? If the former, …
Constitutional Law-Restricting Liberty Without Due Process Of Law-Extorted Confessions
Constitutional Law-Restricting Liberty Without Due Process Of Law-Extorted Confessions
Michigan Law Review
Of recent years the administration of criminal justice has increased many-fold, owing to the constantly increasing size of our great cities and the period of growing social unrest in which we find ourselves. Public opinion has demanded a more effective mode of dealing with those who break the law with seeming impunity. In view of this attitude it is only natural that in a particularly baffling crime the police should seek to obtain some clue of the criminals by grilling suspects. This has resulted in many cases in acts which to say the least are over-zealous. In a recent case …

Conclusiveness Of The Federal Trade Commission's Findings As To Facts, Gregory Hankin
Conclusiveness Of The Federal Trade Commission's Findings As To Facts, Gregory Hankin
Michigan Law Review
The Federal Trade Commission Act and the Clayton Act provide that the Commission's findings as to facts, if supported by testimony, shall be conclusive. Now that the Commission has functioned for almost ten years and a considerable number of its findings have been reviewed by the courts, it is interesting to examine the effect of this statutory provision. In other words, are the findings of the Federal Trade Commission as to facts, if supported by testimony, actually conclusive on the courts when appeal is taken to the Circuit Court of Appeals? This we shall discuss apart from the question--"What, as …

Evidence--Admissibility Of Evidence Secured Through Violation Of Constitutional Prohibitions
Michigan Law Review
No other questions are oftener before our courts in these latter days than those which concern the admissibility of evidence objected to under the various constitutional provisions, state and national, providing against unreasonable searches and seizures, and compulsory self-crimination.

Presumptions, Victor H. Lane
Presumptions, Victor H. Lane
Michigan Law Review
Persistent controversial discussions furnish evidence that there are still uncertainties as to some phases of the nature as well as the law of presumptions. We have recently come much nearer to a common understanding in this field, due to most careful and thoughtful discussions of this subject by such masters of it as Thayer and Wigmore and Chamberlayne. It is 'less with the hope of adding significantly new matter than with the belief that even that which smacks of reiteration may still assist in drawing attention which, once aroused, may ultimately dispel the fog, that this brief discussion of the …

Corpus Delicti
Michigan Law Review
The rule that the corpus delicti-the body of the crime -must be satisfactorily established before one accused of the commission of the crime can be properly convicted is of early origin. The first statement of the necessity and the insistence of its requirement appears to be that of Ld. Hale (2 Hale P. C. 290), where he says: "I would never convict a person of murder or manslaughter, unless the fact were proven to be done or at least the body found dead." The reason for this corpus delicti doctrine is that a defendant should never be convicted unless …

Carriers - Second Cummins Amendment - It was seven years after the Carmack Amendment of the Hepburn Act of i9o6 before the Supreme Court began that series of decisions, extending from Adams Express Co. v. Croninger, 226 U. S. 491 (1913), to George N. Pierce Co. v. Wells, Fargo & Co., 236 U. S. 278 (1915), which directly resulted in the First Cummins Amendment of March, 1915. One has only to read those cases, reviewed in 13 Micn. L. REv. 59o, and other notes referred to in 17 MICH. L. Rzv. 183, to see that the language of the Cummins …
