Authority For Sale And Privity Of Contract: The Proprietary Basis Of The Right To The Proceeds Of Sale In The Common Law, Benjamin Geva Jan 1979

Authority For Sale And Privity Of Contract: The Proprietary Basis Of The Right To The Proceeds Of Sale In The Common Law, Benjamin Geva

Articles & Book Chapters

Upon an authorized sale of goods, the owner's ability to recover the price from the buyer can be explained either by his property in the goods or by a contractual relationship. This article deals with the right to recover the price in the context of an historical and theoretical analysis of the right to the proceeds of a sale at common law. It is suggested that property is the basis of this right, rather than a contractual nexus. Part I presents the sale of goods by an agent of an undisclosed principal as a model situation in which the right …

Survey Of The Virginia Law Of Landlord And Tenant, J. Rodney Johnson Jan 1974

Survey Of The Virginia Law Of Landlord And Tenant, J. Rodney Johnson

University of Richmond Law Review

No aspect of the law of real property affects more people as pervasively as the law of landlord and tenant. A recent study undertaken by the Virginia Housing Study Commission showed that almost fifty percent of the Commonwealth's population are tenants.

Residential Tenants And Their Leases: An Empirical Study, Warren Mueller Dec 1970

Residential Tenants And Their Leases: An Empirical Study, Warren Mueller

Michigan Law Review

Of particular interest is the application of this theory to residential leases, a classic example of the standard long-form contract. An abundance of traditional legal research and commentary has been devoted to the problem of disparity of bargaining power between the parties to a standard-form residential lease. The commentators have consistently called for reform measures to combat this problem. In order to adopt sensible and effective reform measures, however, it is first necessary to obtain factual data with which to test and clarify the reformers' underlying assumptions. Such data is virtually nonexistent, since, prior to the study described in this …

The Case Of The Unwary Home Buyer: The Housing Merchant Did It, E. F. Roberts Jul 1967

The Case Of The Unwary Home Buyer: The Housing Merchant Did It, E. F. Roberts

Cornell Law Faculty Publications

The author points up the decline of caveat emptor as a viable doctrine governing the sale of new homes and analyzes the emergence of implied warranty as a remedy for both structural deficiencies and personal injuries. He argues that the concept of implied warranty tends to obfuscate real distinctions between the builder-vendor’s responsibility for the material integrity of a new home and for personal injuries occasioned by defects therein, concluding that legislation is needed to reestablish a system of order in the law.


Building Contractor's Liability After Completion And Acceptance, James Jay Brown Jan 1967

Building Contractor's Liability After Completion And Acceptance, James Jay Brown

Cleveland State Law Review

Schipper v. Levitt & Sons, Inc., held that a tract home-builder must defend his actions against the prima facie case established by an injured third party. The importance of this case lies in the application of a tort doctrine, previously applied exclusively to negligent acts by chattel manufacturers, to real property construction. This extension is shattering the ancient property concepts so much the bedrock of our Common Law. We will review that foundation and the old rules of non-liability as they concern the landowner, contractor, and third party, in order to grasp the significance of this new change in jurisprudential …

Perpetuities, Privity And Professional Liability, D. Orville Lahy Jan 1966

Perpetuities, Privity And Professional Liability, D. Orville Lahy

University of Richmond Law Review

As the number of malpractice cases against members of all professions continues to increase, it seems appropriate to review several new developments which may be of considerable importance to the practicing lawyer with respect to his professional liability. The time has come to approach this delicate subject with some plain language about property law and the portentous responsibility of the legal profession in the context of the rule against perpetuities.

Restitution -- 1964 Tennessee Survey, John W. Wade Jun 1965

Restitution -- 1964 Tennessee Survey, John W. Wade

Vanderbilt Law Review

The most significant case during the Survey period is Gulf Oil Corp.v. Forcum. The State of Tennessee condemned for highway purposes certain property including the location of a filling station. Defendant was lessee of this property and had installed its own tanks, pumps and other equipment. Plaintiff had the contract to construct the highway and was entitled under this contract to salvage condemned property. Refusing to allow defendant's agent to remove the service station equipment, plaintiff removed the equipment itself at considerable expense. When the condemnation proceeding was completed, defendant was awarded 2,000 dollars for the value of its leasehold, …

Prior Lien On Rents And Profits Upheld As A Method Of Financing Repairs- In Re Dep't Of Bldgs., Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

Official findings of the New York Legislature in 1962 revealed the existence in certain cities of housing conditions which, unless immediately corrected, might cause irreparable damage to buildings or endanger the life, health and safety of their occupants or the general public. To facilitate the correction of these conditions and to increase the supply of adequate, safe dwelling units, the legislature enacted the 1962 Receivership Law, which creates a procedure enabling a city to enforce its housing codes by compelling needed repairs and improvements.

Reflections Upon Hegel's Concept Of Property, Contract, Punishment, And Constitutional Law, Morris D. Forkosch Dec 1964

Reflections Upon Hegel's Concept Of Property, Contract, Punishment, And Constitutional Law, Morris D. Forkosch

Vanderbilt Law Review

Codification and re-codification in federal and state jurisdictions has proceeded in a geometrical progression these past decades. To what extent is the old law yielding or, au contraire, to what extent is the ancient law reappearing? For example, are Plato's views on crime and punishment being revived, continued, or changed?' Or,to what extent are Hegel's views in a certain few legal areas of present interest and value? As we shall see, an understanding of Hegel's juris-prudential views, as related to specific topics, is a present-day pragmatic necessity. We propose to seek these views, albeit briefly, in the fields of property, …


Compulsory Oil And Gas Unitization: Effect On Overriding Royalty Obligations- A Hypothetical Judgement Of The High Court Of Juristic Review In Peter Fox Brewing Co. V. Sohio Petroleum Co., Maurice H. Merrill Jan 1964

Compulsory Oil And Gas Unitization: Effect On Overriding Royalty Obligations- A Hypothetical Judgement Of The High Court Of Juristic Review In Peter Fox Brewing Co. V. Sohio Petroleum Co., Maurice H. Merrill

Michigan Law Review

Jus, Chief Justice. As should be well known, our practice is to sit in review of decisions presenting elements of difficulty, and concerning the propriety of which there seems reason for doubt. We have no jurisdiction to reverse, to modify, or to affirm. Our judgment must be confined to approval or to disapprobation, or to some position between these two extremes.


Contracts -- 1961 Tennessee Survey (Ii), Paul J. Hartman Jun 1962

Contracts -- 1961 Tennessee Survey (Ii), Paul J. Hartman

Vanderbilt Law Review

Statutes may impose a tax upon the transaction of certain business merely for the purpose of raising revenue, and not with any view of regulating the business itself. Even though such statutes impose a penalty for failure to comply with their provisions, contracts made without paying the requisite tax or obtaining the requisite license generally are not thereby made unenforceable. Of course, the legislature may provide that the failure to comply with a revenue statute will invalidate a bargain. But where, as in the Acuff case, the purpose of the statute is the protection of the public, a bargain made …
