Depreciation Damages In Eminent Domain Proceedings, Kevin Duffy
Depreciation Damages In Eminent Domain Proceedings, Kevin Duffy
Cleveland State Law Review
The individual's right in eminent domain proceedings are spelled out by the United States Constitution-specifically, Amendment V, which provides that private property shall not be taken for public use without just compensation. Of course, the seeming simplicity of this constitutional provision belies the complexities involved in its application. For example, it is well settled that "just compensation" for a given piece of property must be measured interms of the fair market value of that property. But market values of real estate are apt to fluctuate even under normal conditions, and their behavior when a public acquisition is in the offing …
Sabbatino Doctrine Modified In Foreign Assistance Act Of 1964, Michigan Law Review
Sabbatino Doctrine Modified In Foreign Assistance Act Of 1964, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
Prior to Banco Nacional de Cuba v. Sabbatino, one of the United States Supreme Court's most controversial recent decisions touching on matters of international law, it had been held that American courts could not question titles to property acquired by virtue of a public taking decreed by a recognized foreign government and carried out within its territory. This concept of judicial abstention, embodied in the "act of state doctrine," was held applicable in Sabbatino even though it was alleged that the asserted claim to the property stemmed from a confiscation that violated customary international law. This decision led Congress …
Constitutional Law - Eminent Domain - Extension Of Fifth Amendment "Taking" To Include Destruction Of Lien Right By The Doctrine Of Immunity Of Government Property From Attachment, Henry J. Price
Michigan Law Review
Upon default of the contracting shipbuilder, the United States acquired title to certain materials in accordance with a contract provision. Petitioners, who had previously acquired materialmen's liens on these materials, claimed that assertion of the doctrine of immunity of government property from attachment resulted in a "taking" of their liens in violation of the fifth amendment. This was rejected by the Court of Claims. On certiorari to the United States Supreme Court, held, reversed, three Justices dissenting. Since the builder had title at the time the materials were furnished, the property was not a "public work" and thus the …

Restitution - Purchaser's Remedies Where Real Estate Broker Falsely Purports To Be Owner's Agent And Misrepresents Owner's Minimum Price, John W. Simpson
Michigan Law Review
Defendant, a licensed real estate broker, represented that he was exclusive agent for the sale of 72 acres of property. Plaintiff made him an offer to purchase at $4,000 per acre, but was later informed by defendant that the owner had rejected the offer, insisting on at least $5,000 per acre. Plaintiff then submitted an offer of $5,000 per acre, which defendant subsequently indicated that the owner had accepted. The deal was consummated with most of the papers handled through a third party employee of defendant. Plaintiff subsequently learned that defendant had never been the agent of the owner, had …

Restitution - Constructive Trust Relief For Breach Of Oral Contract To Create Trust In Land, Edward A. Manuel S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff mining company sued to impose a constructive trust on mineral interests purchased by the defendant employee in breach of his oral agreement with the company. The agreement included a promise to hold any property so acquired in trust for the employer at his election. Ruling that this agreement was unenforceable under the Oklahoma statute of frauds, the trial court relied on the defendant's status as an ordinary employee without duties relating to the acquisition of mineral interests or access to confidential information, and gave judgment for the defendant. On appeal, held, affirmed. Without proof of positive fraud or …
Compulsory Joinder Of Parties In Civil Actions, John W. Reed
Compulsory Joinder Of Parties In Civil Actions, John W. Reed
Michigan Law Review
Compulsory joinder cases involving interests in land display one peculiar and important characteristic: there is almost never any need in the state courts to wrestle with the question of whether a person is indispensable as distinguished from necessary. One hastens to add that this attribute of land cases appears to have gone largely unnoticed, but it exists none the less. It arises out of the fact that in a suit involving real property it is never impossible for the court to obtain jurisdiction over all persons interested therein to an extent which will enable the court to adjudicate controversies over …
Restitution - Recission - Measure Of Restitution Required Of Rescinding Vendee Of Executed Land Contract, Donald W. Shaffer S.Ed.
Restitution - Recission - Measure Of Restitution Required Of Rescinding Vendee Of Executed Land Contract, Donald W. Shaffer S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff vendee sought to rescind an executed contract for the sale of an inn, alleging fraud in the inducement. The lower court granted rescission and ordered repayment to the plaintiff of that part of the purchase price already paid over to defendant- vendor, less $2,500, which was found to be the fair or reasonable rental value for the period of the plaintiff's possession. Both parties appealed, defendant claiming a higher rental figure and plaintiff asserting that no rental should be allowed. Held, the plaintiff should be charged rent measured by the value of the benefits which accrued to him …

Insurance - Recovery - Land Contract Purchaser Allowed Recovery On Both Vendee's And Vendor's Policies In Excess Of Loss, Jerome K. Walsh, Jr.
Michigan Law Review
An owner of realty entered into a contract to sell the land to the plaintiff. The vendor then took out fire insurance on his interest in the amount of $6,000 and the plaintiff obtained a policy covering his interest in the sum of $12,000, with a "three-fourths value" clause. Before performance of the contract and transfer of title, a fire occurred which caused $12,000 damage to the property. After the plaintiff paid the full contract price and took title to the property, he demanded and received an assignment of the claim under the vendor's policy. Plaintiff then brought suit on …

Quasi-Contracts -Assumpsit For Use And Occupation Against A Trespasser In Modern Cases
Michigan Law Review
Perhaps the doctrine of stare decisis is sometimes deserving of severe criticism in its application to matters of substantive law; but the unfortunate results of uncritical adherence to precedent appear most clearly in regard to rules of procedure, where the demand for certainty cannot be justified by a supposed reliance of laymen on "settled" rules. The evils are aggravated where inconvenient decisions are not undermined or their effects evaded by the lawyer's typical process of "distinguishing'' cases. A forcible illustration is the firm refusal of most courts to extend quasicontractual relief to cases of use and occupation of land by …

Equity-Bill To Remove Cloud From Title
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff who was holder of a long term lease on the land and buildings in Chicago known as the Auditorium found that its plans for rebuilding so as to secure a return commensurate with its investment were seriously interfered with by the defendant lessors who took the position that wrecking the old building would constitute such waste as would work a forfeiture of the lease. The publicity of these claims, made the financial underwriters insist on a settlement of them before advances were made. Under this posture of affairs, the plaintiff filed a bill in the United States District Court …

The Remedies Of A Landlord Against A Subtenant
The Remedies Of A Landlord Against A Subtenant
Michigan Law Review
As against the assignee of the lessee the landlord at common law has practically the same remedies that he had against the original lessee. He can distrain on goods found on the leased premises, to secure rent which is in arrears, 2 TIFFANY, LANDLORD AND TENNANT, § 328; and he has the right to re-enter on breach of expressed condition. 2 TIFFANY, LANDLORD AND TENANT, § 194h. As there is privity of estate between the parties, the landlord can recover for breaches of those covenants in the lease, which run with the land. These primarily are those which touch and …

Note And Comment, Edgar N. Durfee, Cyril E. Bailey, Edwin B. Stason, William C. O'Keefe, Clyde Y. Morris
Michigan Law Review
The Basis of Relief from Penalties and Forfeitures - The equitable principle of relief from penalties and forfeitures is so far elementary as almost to defy analysis. Many, perhaps most, of the judicial explanations of the principle have based it upon interpretation or construction, appealing to the doctrine that equity regards intent rather than form. Yet a logical application of this doctrine would lead to results very different from those which have actually been arrived at in the decisions. Thus, a stipulation in a mortgage that the mortgagor waives his equity of redemption can hardly be interpreted as meaning that …

Admiralty - Workmen's Compensation - Is a Hydroplane a Vessel? - Claimant was employed in the care and management of a hydroplane which was moored in navigable waters. The hydroplane began to drag anchor and drift toward the beach, where it was in danger of being wrecked. Claimant waded into the water and was struck by the propeller. Held, claimant is not entitled to compensation under the Workmen's Compensation Law, since a hydroplane while on navigable waters is a vessel, and therefore the jurisdiction of the admiralty excludes that of the State Industrial Commission. Reinhardt v. Newport Flying Service Corp. …
