Collective Bargaining Without Work Stoppage?, Alvin L. Goldman

Law Faculty Scholarly Articles

Legal institutions have provided us with numerous spectator sports. The jury trial and its predecessors, including trial by combat, are obvious examples. In the mid-nineteenth century, arguments before the Supreme Court of the United States occasionally attracted crowds of spectators and captured the front pages of the yellow press. In more recent times, proxy fights have been rumored to provide action for the bookmaking set and televised legislative investigations have won top-viewer ratings. Among the perennial spectator sports provided by our legal institutions over the past half-century or more has been the confrontation of labor and management across the collective …

Vanderbilt Law Review

Two decisions during the survey period involve implementation of rights under collective bargaining agreements. These Tennessee decisions interrelate with other decisions in an area of labor law that has been developing with astonishing rapidity since the Supreme Court of the United States embarked on the project of fashioning a body of federal common law governing the enforcement of collective bargaining agreements in the famous Lincoln Mills decision in 1957. It has been determined that rights under collective bargaining agreements, where the parties would be subject to the Taft-Hartley or Labor-Management Relations Act of 1947, arise under this federal common law." …

Priority Paradoxes In Patent Law, Richard H. Stern

Vanderbilt Law Review

The constitutional provision governing patents gives Congress the power to promote the progress of useful arts "by securing for limited Times to... Inventors the exclusive Right to their... Discoveries. "'Because an "exclusive right" suggests an exclusive grant, the Patent Office interference proceeding has been created for the purpose of determining administratively the question of priority of rights between two or more parties claiming substantially the same invention. This article attempts to state in terms of an informal axiomatic system the rules of law for determining priority of invention, and then examine that system to explore its possible paradoxes Finally, an …

Labor Law -- 1961 Tennessee Survey, Paul H. Sanders

Vanderbilt Law Review

In considering basic rights in connection with labor organization, it must be noted that there may be a fundamental conflict between giving dominant emphasis to the interest of the group of organized workers in advancing and maintaining the standards applicable to the group as opposed to giving comparable emphasis to the wishes of the individual employee of a particular employer. The various policy statements contained in the Wagner Act, the Taft-Hartley Act of 1947 and the Landrum-Griffin Act of 1959 indicate a public interest (within the scope of federal authority) in the protection of employees' right to organize, to choose …

Labor Law And Workmen's Compensation -- 1960 Tennessee Survey, Paul H. Sanders, J. Gilmer Bowman, Jr.

Vanderbilt Law Review

Labor law is concerned with the rules governing the various phases of the employment relation and the activities of employers and labor organizations vis-a-vis such phases. Sometimes such rules are embodied in criminal law or tort law. If the substance of the alleged crime or tort is not directed toward or used in some respects as a regulation of employment or labor relations, it is excluded by the above definition even though some "labor" aspect is prominently identified with the case. For example, during the survey period the Supreme Court of Tennessee decided the case of Smith v. State, affirming …

Labor Law And Workmen's Compensation--1959 Tennessee Survey, Paul H. Sanders, J. Gilmer Bowman, Jr.

Vanderbilt Law Review

What is the meaning of the term "actual cash value" in the standard fire policy? The middle section of the court of appeals, following a prior Tennessee case and the weight of authority, held that the phrase is synonomous with "market value" only where the goods are readily replaceable in a current market. Where there is no market, or where the market value is inadequate to properly indemnify the insured, "actual cash value" means the "'value to the owner' or the loss he suffers in being deprived of the goods." Since the goods involved in this case were personal effects, …

Labor Law And Workmen's Compensation -- 1958 Tennessee Survey, Paul H. Sanders, J. Gilmer Bowman, Jr.

Vanderbilt Law Review

The federal Labor-Management Relations (Taft-Hartley) Act sets forth as a basic right the freedom of choice of covered employees with respect to unionization and the establishment of collective bargaining. While protecting certain concerted activities, this statute makes it unlawful, among other things, for a labor organization to strike or picket for certain proscribed objectives. In this area of regulation (i.e., the purposes of labor combinations and economic pressures) the federal machinery is exclusive to the extent that the necessary relationship to interstate commerce is present and exceptions to coverage are inapplicable. While the Supreme Court of the United States has …

"Cartels" Under The New German Cartel Statute, Heinrich Kronstein

Vanderbilt Law Review

On January 1, 1958, the "Cartel Statute" of the Federal Republic of Germany' became effective. American interests in this event are threefold: (1) During the past decade Americans have tried to convince the Western world that in an industrial, democratic society legislation of the American antitrust type is imperative. Is the German cartel statute a piece of legislation of this type? (2) The enactment of the statute brings to an end the application of Law No. 56 enacted by the American Military Government on January 28, 1947. The Paris Treaty between the Allied Powers and Germany provided that the Allied …

Labor Law And Workmen's Compensation -- 1957 Tennessee Survey, Paul H. Sanders, James G. Bowman Jr.

Vanderbilt Law Review

The decisions of Tennessee appellate courts during the survey period have dealt extensively with the major area of controversy in current labor relations law--federal preemption.' The number of Tennessee decisions handed down which relate to injunctions restraining directly or indirectly the activities of labor organizations exceeds that in any recent comparable period. Clarification of the law applicable in the courts of the state to such activities, however, has not been achieved through these decisions. Two were reversed subsequently without opinion by the Supreme Court of the United States, and these two reversals, in turn, present serious questions as to the …
