Constitutional Law-Compulsory Indemnity For Persons Injured By Automobiles
Constitutional Law-Compulsory Indemnity For Persons Injured By Automobiles
Michigan Law Review
The problem of protecting the public from injuries arising from the use of automobiles upon public highways has recently been subjected to a form of legislative solution that is distinctly different from the earlier attempts. The devices first employed were measures which dealt with the licensing of cars and with the regulation of their use. Later, when the need for giving financial substance to the tort liabilities of motorists appeared, steps were taken in the direction of fixing vicarious liabilities upon the owners of automobiles. This was done to some extent by the courts which announced the "family purpose doctrine," …

Criminal Assault Through Negligence--Bonding Automobile Drivers
Michigan Law Review
The Supreme Court has recently declared constitutional and valid the New York legislation requiring taxi-cab drivers to file with the state a surety bond or an insurance policy conditioned for the payment of judgments against the driver for personal injuries caused by the operation or the defective construction of his vehicle. Packard v. Banton (Feb., 1924) Adv. Ops. No. 126. The amount of the bond or policy required is only $2,500, though with a continuing liability for that amount during the period of the bond.

Liability Of The Carrier To Passengers For Injuries By Its Servants, Renville Wheat
Liability Of The Carrier To Passengers For Injuries By Its Servants, Renville Wheat
Michigan Law Review
With the unprecedented development of the means' of transportation in the early nineteenth century, and the increased use of the corporate form of ownership and control of these means, the inadequacy of the familiar rule of law, respondeat superior, as a protection to the travelling public from the torts of the carrier's servants was recognized. The majority of courts applied with the utmost rigor a test which determined the master's liability by considering whether the act complained of was within the scope of the servant's authority. Some few courts said that the liability depended rather upon whether the act was …

Limitation as to the Amount of Liability for Loss of Goods by Carriers - A carload of automobiles was shipped by express, under an express receipt limiting recovery to $50, unless a greater value was named and a greater carrying charge paid.

Breach of Landlord's Covenant as Defense to Action for Rent - It is undoubtedly well settled that if the agreement to pay rent is dependent upon the performance by the landlord of some undertaking on his part, the failure by the landlord so to perform is a good defense to an action for the rent. It is equally well settled that if the agreements are independent such failure by the landlord is no defense. The difficulty arises in determining whether the agreements are dependent or independent. That question is one of construction, and it cannot be expected that all the …

Mutuality in Automobile Agency Contracts - Within the past few years several courts have had to pass upon and construe argreements between the manufacturers and the selling-agents of automoobiles, which have necessitated a thorough discussion of the principles of mutuality of obligation of contracts. The attempt to reach a correct solution has developed a vigorous difference of opinion on the subject in some recent cases which it may be of interest to discuss and compare.

Limitation Of A Carrier's Liability For Negligence, Edson R. Sunderland
Limitation Of A Carrier's Liability For Negligence, Edson R. Sunderland
Articles
Limitation of a Carrier's Liability for Negligence.-This is one of the subjects which never seems to be set at rest. In making contracts, shipper and carrier do not stand upon an equality. The shipper cannot exist without the aid of the carrier, but the carrier can easily forego the business of any particular shipper. Hence the ordinary rules of contract fail in many respects to meet the demands of the situation. To properly define the limitations necessary to be placed upon these rules is not an easy task.
