Putting The Brakes On Carjacking Or Accelerating It? The Anti Car Theft Act Of 1992, F. Georgann Wing

University of Richmond Law Review

"We cannot put up with this kind of animal behavior. These people have no place in decent society, and ... they can go to jail and they can stay in jail and they can rot in jail for crimes like that." Soon after speaking those words, on October 25, 1992, President George Bush signed the Anti Car Theft Act of 1992 in Detroit, Michigan. For the citizens of Detroit, it was a fitting response to the crime that was coined "carjacking" and popularized in the same city-the Motor City-in the heat of the summer of 1991.

Negligence - Duties Of Railroad - Landowner Toward Frequent Trespasser - Limitations On Rights Of Trespasser, William D. Keeler S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

The duties of a landowner toward one who enters the land without consent may no longer be determined, in many cases, by merely stating the fact that the intruder is a trespasser whose presence is unknown to the landowner. This comment will discuss an area in which the relationship of landowner and trespasser inter se has been greatly altered, and will deal in particular with a class of cases which serve to limit the expanded rights of the trespasser.

Michigan Law Review

While proceeding in this fashion, the car overtook and struck a bicycle, severely injuring a passenger thereon. From a conviction of criminal assault of the passenger, defendant appealed. Held, affirmed. The necessary intent to injure a specific passenger of a vehicle may be inferred from the recklessness evidenced by driving at night at a speed greatly exceeding the statutory limit.
