Texas Oil And Gas Leases Contain Separate And Distinct Implied Covenant To Further Explore After Lucrative Production., E. Joy Jackson Sparks

St. Mary's Law Journal

In Sun Exploration & Production Co. v. Jackson, the Texas Supreme Court held Texas oil and gas leases contain a separate and distinct implied covenant to further explore after lucrative production. A lease that grants an interest in oil and gas found beneath the ground surface holds several implied covenants. Once successful production begins on a leasehold, implied covenants arise to encourage cooperation between the lessor and the lessee. A covenant is a “promise” between two or more parties to perform or not to perform a specific act. A covenant may be expressly stated within a contract or implied by …

Covert Operations, Lori Fisler Damrosch

Faculty Scholarship

As the Constitution begins its third century, the system of congressional oversight of covert action is only in its second decade. In the ancient history of covert action – before the intelligence oversight reforms of the l 970s – Congress did not involve itself in covert operations. After giving the Central Intelligence Agency standing authority to "perform such other functions and duties related to intelligence affecting the national security as the National Security Council may from time to time direct," Congress paid little attention to what the Executive did under this authority. The era of congressional noninvolvement came to an …

Detention Without Trial In The Second World War: Comparing The British And American Experiences, A.W. Brian Simpson

Florida State University Law Review

National security has long been advanced as a justification for the abrogation of civil liberties. In this lecture, Professor Simpson examines through the analysis of particular cases how two nations dealt with these competing values in the interment without trial of their respective citizens during World War II. Condemning the secrecy and lack of accountability of the authorities responsible for protecting the nation, Simpson issues a call for vigilance and a warning that patterns and habits of respect for liberty will serve better than mere forms of procedure to effectively insure that liberties are not again abandoned to ill-founded claims …

Military Law And The Charter Of Rights, Andrew D. Heard

Dalhousie Law Journal

Substantial re-evaluations of the rules ordering many facets of Canadian society have been required since the introduction of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, both as a consequence and in anticipation of challenges in the courts. The military community in particular has been faced with extensive difficulties because of the adoption of the Charter of Rights by its parent civilian society. The dilemma the military finds itself in stems from the creation of the Charter by civilian politicians and lawyers who had the problems of a civilian society and legal system in mind; yet it applies equally to the military.' …

The Law Of Belligerent Occupation And The Legal Status Of The Gaza Strip, Bob Labes

Michigan Journal of International Law

Israel's presence in the Gaza Strip does, in fact, raise many interesting issues in international law, including questions concerning the law of belligerent occupation, and the law of self-determination. This note examines some of these questions. Part I of the Note discusses pertinent aspects of the law of belligerent occupation. It points out that among the features of the traditional concept of belligerent occupation is the existence of an armed conflict between the occupying state and the state whose territory is occupied. Part II examines the history of the Gaza Strip, in an attempt to determine whether it can be …

International Law Governing Aid To Opposition Groups In Civil War: Resurrecting The Standards Of Belligerency, Robert W. Gomulkiewicz

Washington Law Review

There is a need to rethink and restate the laws of war as they relate to civil war. The reformulation must take account of present realities, the most important of which is the interference of outside governments in civil strife. The challenge is to create a rule of law that channels behavior in a constructive way. A rule requiring abstinence, no matter how well intentioned, will likely be disregarded. One important standard is the traditional law of belligerency. Although the doctrine has fallen into disuse, the belligerency standards are a good test of the legitimacy of an armed opposition group …

Products Liability: An Argument For Product Line Liability In Texas Symposium - Business Tort Litigation., Charles E. Cantu, David S. Goldberg

St. Mary's Law Journal

In today’s fast-paced business world, buyouts, takeovers, mergers, and other acquisitions are common occurrences. As a consequence of this corporate turnover, the consumer plaintiff injured while using a defective product may find the search for the proper defendant is futile, simply because the product is now marketed by a different legal entity. Generally, the consumer has no recourse against the manufacturer of the particular product which caused the injury if that manufacturer has since dissolved. This apparent unfairness, coupled with an increase in litigation of this nature over the last decade, has led to the judicial recognition of an exception …
