A Better Theory Of Legal Interpretation, Charles P. Curtis

Vanderbilt Law Review

We have, almost all of us, I think, been brought up in the belief that the interpretation of legal documents consists essentially in a search for the intention of the author. I take it the classic, and I am sure the most elegant, exposition of this doctrine is the paper which Vaughan Hawkins, almost ninety years ago, in 1860, read before the juridical Society. Thayer printed it as an appendix in his Preliminary Treatise on Evidence and said of it, "the nature of the inquiry is described with penetration and accuracy." Hawkins states our creed in a few sentences...

Legal Writing On Statutory Construction, Paul H. Sanders, John W. Wade

Vanderbilt Law Review

This review does not purport to provide a complete critique of the various works in the field of Statutory Construction. It is not directed primarily to the specialist. Instead, it is intended to bring together for the benefit of the general practitioner the various books and other writings on the subject and thus amounts essentially to a bibliography. But an effort has been made to suggest the approach of the longer works and to estimate in some measure their value. Thus this symposium on the subject of Statutory Construction can be rounded out by providing convenient reference to other writings …

The Washington Supreme Court Reports, Solon D. Williams

Washington Law Review

The purpose of this paper is to discuss what might be termed the mechanics of reporting, that is, the machinery whereby the decisions of our Supreme Court are made available to bench and bar in the form of weekly Advance Sheets and bound volumes. And I would not venture to inflict upon this convention such a dry and technical subject if it were not that, as will presently appear, the matter is of considerably more than academic interest to all of us. I realize that the average practitioner regards the reports somewhat in the same light as the housewife regards …

Desiderata Pertaining To Selected Legal Materials Of Washington, Arthur S. Beardsley

Washington Law Review

Of particular importance to a law librarian, but not without interest to the lawyer and student alike, are the bibliographical data and desiderata which pertain to the legal publications of their immediate locale. Through such desiderata, facts, which frequently may be quite unknown or which may have been overlooked, are brought to light and preserved for future interpretative research. Oftentimes, the circumstances surrounding these publications may be unknown or may not have attracted attention because of their common character and daily use. Oftentimes, also, the user may have been too close to them to perceive any peculiarities of imprint, pagination …
