"Reference Statutes"--Borrow Now And Pay Later?, R. Perry Sentell Jr. Sep 1975

"Reference Statutes"--Borrow Now And Pay Later?, R. Perry Sentell Jr.

Scholarly Works

In 1923, the General Assembly of Nod enacted the "Statute of Paul" (so designated because of the sponsoring legislator, Paul Perfect), which empowered municipalities of Nod (called "sleepy hollows") to issue licenses to individuals wishing to engage in legitimate private enterprises. One provision of the Paul Statute directed that applicants for such licenses "must make application in the mode prescribed by Code Section 23-112, dealing with county licesning [sic] of pickle processors" (popularly known as the "Peter Pickle Statute"). In 1923, Code Section 23-112 required that an applicant for a pickle processing license submit his application to county licensing authorities …

Rezoning By Amendment As An Administrative Or Quasi-Judicial Act: The "New Look" In Michigan Zoning, Roger A. Cunningham Aug 1975

Rezoning By Amendment As An Administrative Or Quasi-Judicial Act: The "New Look" In Michigan Zoning, Roger A. Cunningham

Michigan Law Review

The traditional view in zoning law has been that the enactment of an original zoning ordinance and any amendments thereto by a local governing body is a "legislative" act, as contrasted with the granting of a "special exception" or a "variance" by the zoning board of appeals (or board of adjustment), which is an "administrative" or "quasi-judicial" act. Recently, however, the Oregon and Washington supreme courts have challenged this view, concluding that, under some circumstances at least, the enactment of a zoning amendment should be considered an "administrative" or "quasi-judicial" act, and thus subject to more extensive judicial review. Although …

Selected Oddities In Georgia Municipal Law, R. Perry Sentell Jr. Jul 1975

Selected Oddities In Georgia Municipal Law, R. Perry Sentell Jr.

Scholarly Works

Generally speaking, practitioners, jurists, professors, legislators, and students desire certainty in the law. For those interested in the law of municipal corporations in Georgia, however, that search for certainty is frequently frustrating, if not impossible. In his Article, Professor Sentell points to a number of Georgia constitutional and statutory rules which, when read with the interpretations of these provisions by the Georgia courts, generate uncertainty and confusion for one confronted with a question in municipal corporation law. The discussion begins with a look at the definitional uncertainty of what is a municipal corporation under Georgia law, turns next to an …


Personal Liability Of State Officials Under State And Federal Law, Charles R. Mcmanis Jul 1975

Personal Liability Of State Officials Under State And Federal Law, Charles R. Mcmanis

Scholarly Works

The common law rule of governmental immunity made governments immune from suit and held public officials personally liable for the torts they committed in the performance of their duties. In recent years, however, the law of tort liability has moved toward the increased immunity of governmental officials and employees and the increased liability of governmental units. In this Article Professor McManis first outlines the notion of sovereign immunity, following with an analysis of the nature and the scope of the immunity afforded governmental official sunder federal and state law, with a particular emphasis on the law of Georgia. The author …

The purpose of this Special Project is to analyze the development of procedures for adjudicating small claims, with particular emphasis on the State of Tennessee, and to suggest statutory revisions that may be of value in improving the quality of justice at the lowest level of the judicial system.

The result of this analysis will be a characterization of a model small claims court.The …

Disqualification For Bias- Indiana In Prespective, John Philip Updike Apr 1975

Disqualification For Bias- Indiana In Prespective, John Philip Updike

IUSTITIA

In 1943, the Indiana Legislature created a Stream Pollution Control Board;' in 1961, it created an Air Pollution Control Board; and then in 1972, the Legislature created an Environmental Management Board to coordinate and facilitate the efforts of the air and stream boards. The concern within the State Legislature for the environment reaches back more than two decades, and it would appear that the policy of the State is to become progressively more active in this area. However, the effectiveness of State programs to protect the Hoosier environment is necessarily dependent upon the dedication of those persons sitting on the …

Military Retired Pay In Texas: A New Outlook., Joseph F. Sage Mar 1975

Military Retired Pay In Texas: A New Outlook., Joseph F. Sage

St. Mary's Law Journal

Texas courts have solidified the rule that retirement benefits are community property, subject to judicial division on divorce. The courts have largely overlooked an area of federal law and regulation involving the distinction between retirement from active duty and absolute retirement from service. Generally, regularly commissioned officers remain in the military even after retiring from active duty, while officers with reserve commissions terminate their military commitment upon retirement. Texas courts have not observed the distinction between the retirement benefits for regular and reserve officers, which are correctly labeled retired pay and retirement pay, respectively. Hence, current wages fall outside of …

Fighting Conflicts Of Interest In Officialdom: Constitutional And Practical Guidelines For State Financial Disclosure Laws, Michigan Law Review Mar 1975

Fighting Conflicts Of Interest In Officialdom: Constitutional And Practical Guidelines For State Financial Disclosure Laws, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

This note will examine the individual interests in running for office and in personal financial privacy in order to determine what level of scrutiny should be applied to disclosure statutes. After concluding that only minimal scrutiny should apply--a standard certainly met by the state's strong interests--it will be argued that nonconstitutional considerations bearing on the practicality of disclosure statutes nevertheless require a careful balancing of the state interest in disclosure against the individual interests of each class of persons affected by the statutes. The discussion of the strength of the state's interest in disclosure with respect to each class will …
