Mr. Justice Cardozo, William O. Douglas

Michigan Law Review

I never knew Cardozo intimately. I read most of his opinions and all of his books; and I heard him lecture. My personal association with him, however, was limited. When he came to Washington, D. C., he lived in rather lonely isolation. I visited with him occasionally in his apartment where we talked about trivial, as well as philosophical, things. He was a gentle-almost self-effacing-man. Yet he had a mind with as keen a cutting edge as any I ever knew.

The Judicial Process, Lee E. Skeel

Cleveland State Law Review

The judicial process is that technique by which coherent direction of thought on the basic principles of social rights and duties is made available for judicial officers. It is the duty of such officers diligently to seek out the rules which must be used as the bases of judgment. The sources from which they must seek help are as wide and varied as the sum total of past and present human experience.

Natural Law And Everyday Law, Joseph O'Meara

Journal Articles

Like most terms "natural law" has had, and has, a variety of meanings. In most of its meanings it touches scarcely at all the professional concerns of the lawyer but moves, rather, on a plane widely separated from his daily cares and duties. Thus, for the most part, natural law stands aloof from the urgent here-and-now with which lawyer and judge necessarily are preoccupied; it inhabits a world apart.

In these remarks I hope to suggest an approach to natural law which will make it useful on a day-to-day basis in the perplexities by which practitioners and judges constantly are …

Eminent Domain - Procedure - Relation Of Judge And Jury In Michigan Condemnation Proceedings, John H. Jackson S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

The relationship of judge to jury in Michigan condemnation proceedings presents in many ways a merger of some of the problems and questions contained in the relationship of judge to jury in civil trials, and of court to tribunal in administrative law. Theorists as well as the practicing lawyer in Michigan and some other states" may well find in the development of the Michigan condemnation proceeding an interesting example of the growth of a procedure for adjudication, in a context of cross-fire between legislative ideas and judicial interpretation of a constitutional provision.

Administrative Law - Judicial Control - Appellate Review Of Federal Trade Commission Proceedings, David A. Nelson S. Ed.

Michigan Law Review

During its forty-five year life the Federal Trade Commission has gone through some difficult periods to emerge today as one of the fundamental instrumentalities of government in the regulation of business. Its vast powers and influence, well known to lawyers, will not be explored here. Rather, the purpose of this comment is to appraise the extent of control which the judiciary now exercises over the commission in its adjudicative functions, so as to offer some indication to the practitioner of the probabilities regarding the outcome of judicial review on an appeal beyond the full commission. The approach to be used …

Judicial Review And Party Politics, Wallace Mendelson

Vanderbilt Law Review

It has been suggested that intrusion upon legislative policy by judicial review "is a consequence of that fragmentation of political power which is normal in the United States. No cohesive majority,such as normally exists in Britain, would permit a politically irresponsible judiciary to usurp decision--making [policy] functions, but, for complex social and institutional reasons, there are few issues in the United States on which cohesive majorities exist." When they do exist, as in the recent tidal wave of anti-communism, the Supreme Court is not apt to test its strength against them. Rather it practices a judicious self-restraint. Distinguishing between parliamentary …

Foreward, William T. Muse

University of Richmond Law Review

The reception accorded the first number of the University of Richmond Law Notes, published last spring, has been most gratifying. It has encouraged the Faculty to prepare this second number, which also is being distributed to all alumni of the Law School through the courtesy of the University of Richmond Law School Association. There has been a modest volume of requests for copies of the first issue from non-alumni members of the bar and from many law libraries.

Federal Procedure - Judgments - Finality Of Judgment Required To Begin Running Of Time For Appeal, Arnold Henson S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

Plaintiff brought action in a federal district court to recover taxes alleged to have been illegally assessed, and for interest thereon. On April 14, 1955, after hearing plaintiff's motion for summary judgment, the district judge filed an opinion stating that the motion was granted, and finding the amount of the taxes paid, but not finding the date of payment or the amount of interest due. The clerk noted: "April 14, 1955 ... Decision rendered on motion for summary judgment. Motion granted. See opinion on file." On May 24, 1955, plaintiff submitted a formal judgment which was signed and filed by …

Constitutional Law - Judicial Power - Power To Compel Fair Apportionment By The Legislature, Walter L. Adams S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

At a general election on November 6, 1956, voters of the state of Washington approved by popular initiative a reapportionment of the legislature based upon political sub-divisions as described in the federal census of 1950. On December 6, 1956, the governor proclaimed the measure to be law and it was enrolled as chapter 5, Laws of 1957. At the regular 1957 session of the state legislature, chapter 289, revoking the initiative and calling for the use of the election precinct as the unit · of population for forming legislative districts, was passed by a vote of more than a two-thirds …
