Personal Jurisdiction In The Post-World-Wide Volkswagen Era—Using A Market Analysis To Determine The Reach Of Jurisdiction, Gregory Trautman

Washington Law Review

This Comment proposes that courts should apply a market analysis to all "stream of commerce" cases. The proper question in such cases is whether the market for the defendant manufacturer's or dealer's products includes the forum state. If so, the defendant should be subject to jurisdiction in the forum state. The Comment begins with a look at the recent history of the doctrine of personal jurisdiction. It then proposes a market analysis approach as an alternative to the rigid unilateral contacts test, and discusses the market analysis approach in the context of several recent consumer-based contact cases. Finally, the Comment …

Claims Of Dual Nationals In The Modern Era: The Iran-United States Claims Tribunal, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

This Note will discuss the considerations, implicit in the Tribunal's opinion, that support substituting the doctrine of dominant and effective nationality for the rule of state nonresponsibility in cases involving claims of dual nationals. Part I of this Note briefly examines the traditional framework of diplomatic protection and demonstrates that the policies supporting the doctrine of state nonresponsibility are anachronistic and that strict adherence to them leads to inequitable results. Part II argues that the doctrine of dominant and effective nationality is the preferred standard for determining the status of dual national claims. At the core of this doctrine is …

Judicial Jurisdiction In The United States And In The European Communities: A Comparison, Friedrich Juenger

Michigan Law Review

Eric Stein deserves our gratitude for making European integration accessible to American students and teachers. He has taught and written widely on this important subject, and the casebook he published with Hay and Waelbroeck is a valuable aid for dispelling what a judge of the Communities' Court of Justice called "splendid mutual ignorance." Following Judge Pescatore's suggestion that it is time to take note of the experience gathered on both sides of the Atlantic, it seems worthwhile to compare the evolution of jurisdictional principles in the United States and in the Common Market.

Territorial Jurisdiction Of Municipal And Regional Police Personnel In New Brunswick, B. Richard Bell

Dalhousie Law Journal

In a free and democratic society, it is essential that citizens know beyond any doubt the territorial jurisdiction of police officers who may attempt to deprive them of their liberty. It is equally as important for police officers to know with certainty their territorial jurisdiction. Recent cases from the Court of Queen's Bench of New Brunswick and the Court of Appeal reflect the uncertainty in this area of the law. Any analysis of this issue must commence with the case of Regina v. Soucy (1975) 11 N.B.R. (2d) 75 (C.A.). In Soucy, the accused had been stopped by a Rothesay …

The Case For Federalizing Rules Of Civil Jurisdiction In The European Community, Peter Hay

Michigan Law Review

The European Community is an "incipient federal structure," even if its scope of operation is limited in subject matter and its creation derives from "a network of treaties rather than [from] a formal constitution." A federal structure at once protects, even nurtures, pluralism and coordinates the constituent units in the interest of a union. Federal legislation promotes the interests of the larger unit; a limitation of powers in the constitutive document preserves the integrity of the members. In the American federation, the United States Supreme Court defines the balance between the reach of state and federal law. The balance, moreover, …

A Brave New World For Personal Jurisdiction: Flexible Tests Under Uniform Standards, Harold S. Lewis, Jr.

Vanderbilt Law Review

This Article accepts the challenge to unify personal jurisdiction theory by proposing an approach that accommodates both the contacts-based and noncontacts-based tests under uniform jurisdictional standards. The analysis builds on the major assumption,elaborated in part II, that the Supreme Court's decision in Insurance Corp. of Ireland v. Compagnie des Bauxites de Guinee removed the principal barrier to a unified theory by ousting governmental interests from their long held place in personal jurisdiction decisions. The principal thesis is that International Shoe has made two general, lasting contributions to jurisdictional theory.First, International Shoe recognized, although less clearly than Ireland, that the goal …
