Attorney And Client-Forfeiture Of Right To Fee For Failure Of Attorney To Register Under Integrated Bar Act

Michigan Law Review

Plaintiff, an attorney, sued for reasonable value of professional services rendered to defendant. The Washington integrated bar act requires all attorneys to register annually at certain date and to pay a registration fee. Those who fail to comply are deemed to be under suspension until the provisions are complied with. At the time these services were performed plaintiff was in default. Held, this requisite is a condition imposed for the privilege of exercising a lawyer's franchise. Failure to comply forfeits plaintiff's right to compensation for professional services undertaken during the period of default. Smith v. Kneisley, (Wash. 1935) …

An Inquiry Concerning The Functions Of Procedure In Legal Education, Edson R. Sunderland Jan 1923

An Inquiry Concerning The Functions Of Procedure In Legal Education, Edson R. Sunderland

Articles

Procedure has always been the bete noire of the law school teacher. No other subject has developed such divergent opinions or such endless debates. None recurs with such periodic frequency and in no field of legal pedagogy has discussion seemed so barren of results. Three different general sessions of the Association of American Law Schools during the last ten years have been devoted largely or wholly to the subject of teaching procedure, and yet no substantial progress seems to have been made toward a standardized scheme of treatment. Individual teachers and schools have their individual views and policies, and they …

The questions which occur are these: 1. Did the court have the power to vacate its order of disbarment after the time for opening, amending or vacating judgments had passed? 2. Did the vacation of the order of disbarment operate ipso …
