S, guardian for some minor children, used $ 1200 of their money without order of court for the discharge of a mortgage on land belonging equally to himself and the wards.

Domestic Relations-Right Of Wife To Consortium-Negligent Injury To Husband May 1935

Domestic Relations-Right Of Wife To Consortium-Negligent Injury To Husband

Michigan Law Review

Plaintiff sued for loss of the opportunity to bear children by her husband resulting from his emasculation caused by defendant's negligence. The court below dismissed the complaint. Held (one judge dissenting), judgment affirmed. Such a cause of action has never been recognized. It cannot be said that the wrong is the proximate cause of the loss because of the many elements of doubt and conjecture in connection with the birth of children. Landwehr v. Barbas, 24I App. Div. 769, 270 N. Y. S. 534 (I934).

Legislative Attack On "Heart Balm", Nathan P. Feinsinger May 1935

Legislative Attack On "Heart Balm", Nathan P. Feinsinger

Michigan Law Review

Public resentment over the abuses incident to "heart balm" suits has recently culminated in sweeping legislative reform. Through the repeated efforts of a woman legislator, Indiana has abolished actions for seduction of females over twenty-one years of age, for breach of promise to marry, and for criminal conversation and alienation of affections. Almost immediately New York, and shortly thereafter Illinois, passed similar legislation, and at least ten other states are now considering analogous proposals.

Certiorari was granted by the Supreme Court, limited to the question as to what law was applicable in determining the competency of the wife. Held, that the federal courts have the power to determine for themselves the …

Michigan Law Review

A will was duly probated in the county court. By it the plaintiff and defendant were appointed guardians of the testator's minor children.

Finally, proceedings were properly brought in the county court to have questions concerning the care of the funds settled. While such proceedings were pending, the plaintiff, evidently not content to have the difficulty settled in this manner, brought an equity suit in the district court against her co-guardian under the Declaratory Judgments Act, in which …
