Treaties-State Successsion-Effect On Commercial Treaties And Reciprocity Statutes May 1931

Treaties-State Successsion-Effect On Commercial Treaties And Reciprocity Statutes

Michigan Law Review

In a suit to recover alleged excessive tonnage duties the court held that the commercial treaties made by the United States with the Hanseatic Republics in 1827 (1 Malloy 901), and with Prussia in 1828 (2 Malloy 1496), were still valid and effective to exempt a vessel from duties that were imposed in 1921; but that U. S. Rev. Stat. sec. 4229-30 and 4 Stat. 2, exempting Prussian vessels from these taxes, were no longer operative. For facts, see note supra. The Sophie Rickmers, 45 F.(2d) 413.

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 …

Perhaps the widespread impression is the curiously erroneous one lampooned by Gnaeus Flavius (Kantorowitz). The judge is supposed to sit at …

Rights Of A Traveler To Use Here Articles Made And Purchased Abroad But Patented Here, Dwight B. Cheever Jan 1909

Rights Of A Traveler To Use Here Articles Made And Purchased Abroad But Patented Here, Dwight B. Cheever

Michigan Law Review

The question to be answered by this paper is whether or not when an American citizen goes abroad and purchases there from a manufacturer in any foreign country any article whatsoever be it wearing apparel or an automobile which is patented in this country has such a purchaser the right to bring that article into this country and to use it in this country without paying tribute to the American patentee or his assignee. As to small articles the question is of course unimportant, for no one would think of going to the expense of a suit over the use …
