Statement Of Fact Versus Statement Of Opinion -- A Spurious Dispute In Fair Comment, Herbert W. Titus
Statement Of Fact Versus Statement Of Opinion -- A Spurious Dispute In Fair Comment, Herbert W. Titus
Vanderbilt Law Review
In attempting to solve problems in a variety of areas lawyers continuously make use of a distinction between statements of "fact" on the one hand and those of "opinion" on the other.' So versatile is this distinction that it has been used to solve problems raised in such diverse areas of the law as evidence and defamation. However, since the turn of the century the fact-opinion dichotomy has been severely criticized as a means of deciding what kinds of testimony should be allowed in a legal trial. Yet in the law of defamation, where this distinction has been extensively applied …

The Dilemma Of The Directed Acquittal, Richard H. Winningham
The Dilemma Of The Directed Acquittal, Richard H. Winningham
Vanderbilt Law Review
Some of the worst abuses of state criminal due process, the author believes, result from anachronistic and artificial restraints which prevent the trial judge from directing acquittals. Therefore,he advocates for all states a uniform policy and practice recognizing and authorizing directed acquittals where the evidence is legally insufficient to support a conviction.

Procedural Problems Of Class Suits, Joseph J. Simeone
Procedural Problems Of Class Suits, Joseph J. Simeone
Michigan Law Review
The purpose of this article is to discuss numerous aspects of the class device, to discuss the many procedural problems confronting court and counsel, to determine the effectiveness of one type of class suit-the spurious-and in the conclusion, to propose legislation for a new rule independent of the rules regarding class actions, a remedy which would more effectively permit the dispatch of numerous claims arising from similar fact patterns.

Federal Trade Commission-Adjudicatory Proceedings-Receipt Of Evidence In Camera, Peter W. Williamson
Federal Trade Commission-Adjudicatory Proceedings-Receipt Of Evidence In Camera, Peter W. Williamson
Michigan Law Review
During an adjudicatory hearing pursuant to a complaint filed by the Federal Trade Commission, counsel for the Commission offered as evidence some confidential documents subpoenaed from respondent. The hearing examiner, on his own motion, ordered all confidential documents placed in camera. Counsel for the FTC objected to the order and filed an interlocutory appeal to the Commission. On the interlocutory appeal, held, error in part. Because these documents do not contain highly secret business information they must appear on the public transcript, unless tendered to the Commission and obtained subject to an express stipulation that, if offered in …
The Basis Of Medical Testimony, Paul D. Rheingold
The Basis Of Medical Testimony, Paul D. Rheingold
Vanderbilt Law Review
Like any other expert, the medical witness is brought into court to render an opinion upon technical issues involved in a case. Fundamental to the opinions or conclusions which the medical witness renders is a matrix of data learned, observed or related, both fact and opinion. These subsidiary items, taken together, are commonly referred to as the basis of expert testimony. Thus a doctor, in testifying on the cause of a patient's condition, for example, might refer to and rely upon what he has observed in examining the patient, upon what the patient has told him of his symptoms, and …
Evidence - Presumptions - Statutory Presumption Of Due Care In Wrongful Death Action, Francis X. Beytagh Jr.
Evidence - Presumptions - Statutory Presumption Of Due Care In Wrongful Death Action, Francis X. Beytagh Jr.
Michigan Law Review
Consolidation of two actions arising from a multi-vehicle highway accident resulted in verdicts in both causes against appellants. One action was brought against appellants by the administratrix of a deceased driver under a wrongful death statute, and resulted in a verdict for the administratrix because of a statutory presumption of deceased's due care. The other action was a personal injury suit by a third party against appellants and the administratrix as co-defendants, and resulted in a verdict exonerating the deceased driver, despite circumstances raising an inference of his negligence. Appellants' motions for judgment notwithstanding the verdict and new trial were …
Legal By-Products Of Chemical Testing For Intoxication, M. C. Slough, Paul E. Wilson
Legal By-Products Of Chemical Testing For Intoxication, M. C. Slough, Paul E. Wilson
Cleveland State Law Review
One among many problems of national moment is the intoxicated motorist. Legislators have long fumbled for remedies to halt a wave of senseless killing and mutilation that has resulted from an unhappy combination of ethyl alcohol and mechanical power. Convictions in court have been too difficult to halt a wave of senseless killing and mutilation that has reconstructive and effective legal control. Jurors themselves, have often been hesitant to convict because the sum total of objective evidence produced has not convinced them that the subjects they were judging had actually been drunk or intoxicated.

Autopsy Evidence, Garcon Weiss
Autopsy Evidence, Garcon Weiss
Cleveland State Law Review
Frequently death results in legal problems, either civil or criminal, the solutions of which depend on the cause of death. The autopsy (necropsy), or post-mortem examination, is the scientific method of determining the cause of death. An autopsy is the careful inspection of the external and internal structures of the body. There are two types of autopsy, the medical autopsy and the medico-legal autopsy. This article is limited to the use of the autopsy for medico-legal purposes, i.e., for obtaining and submitting evidence.
Experimental Evidence, Donald L. Guarnieri
Experimental Evidence, Donald L. Guarnieri
Cleveland State Law Review
The purpose of this article is to explain the concepts basic to the admissibility of experimental evidence in civil jury cases. The article will examine the prerequisites to the admissibility of experimental evidence, will give illustrations of various experiments, and will comment on the trend of court decisions since the latter part of the nineteenth century. The article deals primarily with experiments conducted outside of the court room as opposed to experiments conducted in the courtroom in the presence of a jury.
Intoxication And Opinion Evidence, John E. Martindale
Intoxication And Opinion Evidence, John E. Martindale
Cleveland State Law Review
It must be said at the outset that there are many problems in connection with the rules of evidence which an article as short as this one cannot hope to touch upon. Among these is the relevance of intoxication to particular issues. It must be assumed that the evidence sought to be introduced is material and relevant. With this assumption we will consider three areas of intoxication evidence: lay opinion, expert opinion and hospital records. These are the three main areas involving the introduction of an opinion as to intoxicated condition.

Scientific Investigation Of Intoxication, Bernard J. Conley
Scientific Investigation Of Intoxication, Bernard J. Conley
Cleveland State Law Review
The thirty years in which chemical testing for intoxication has had its inception and development has coincided with the thirty years in which the protection of the rights of the accused has almost obliterated the rights of our society to protect itself from persons bent on mischief. Despite this trend the courts have seen fit to encourage the advancement of the presentation of scientific evidence to enable the courts, both civil and criminal,to arrive at intelligent and just decisions. Scientific evidence,qualified by the ability and integrity of the expert, is the result of intelligent, systematized and skillful experimentation and research …
Exhibition Of Person In Personal Injury Cases, Dennis M. Burgoon
Exhibition Of Person In Personal Injury Cases, Dennis M. Burgoon
Cleveland State Law Review
It is to be admitted that the proof of injury, which is directed to the senses, is a most convincing means of proof, and is the best evidence of a material fact, but it is not the fact that such exhibition is material that comes into dispute when such an exhibition is sought to be admitted, rather it is the claimed prejudicial effect of such exhibition, or the possibility that it might be indecent that raises the objection to this form of evidence.
Evidence Problems In Juvenile Delinquency Proceedings, Ronald J. Harpst
Evidence Problems In Juvenile Delinquency Proceedings, Ronald J. Harpst
Cleveland State Law Review
Some of the most perplexing problems facing the attorney defending a child charged with a delinquency have their inception in misunderstandings, lack of uniformity and loose application of evidential rules. In order to serve the best interests of the children who are before it, and to obtain necessary facts with which to formulate a rehabilitation plan, the courts have a tendency to waive strict adherence to evidence rules. The methodical attorney wonders how the court can serve the best interests of the child and yet seemingly not afford to the child the equal protection of its laws of evidence.
