Malpractice Actions And Compensation Acts, Paul A. Leidy
Michigan Law Review
S, an employee, is injured as the result of the negligence of his employer, M; S is taken for treatment to the office of X, a competent physician or surgeon selected by S or by M; on this particular occasion X is negligent and as a result of X's negligence S's two weeks' injury is aggravated and the period of disability becomes one of two months' duration. At common law, inasmuch as the original injury was one for which M was legally responsible, S could recover from M for the entire disability-that resulting directly from the original negligence of M …

Admiralty-Jurisdiction-Workmen's Compensation
Michigan Law Review
The question of what remedies should be available to maritime workers for injuries in the course of their employment has received much attention from the courts during the last fifteen years. This has resulted in some conflicts of the federal maritime jurisdiction with the jurisdiction of the states, and particularly' with the workmen's compensation acts enacted by them. The history of this situation was reviewed in 27 MICH. L. Rev. 191, December, 1928, in a note by G [errit] D [emmink]. In view of three decisions rendered last spring by the United States Supreme Court, it has seemed well to …

"Lightning Cases" Under Workmen's Compensation Acts
"Lightning Cases" Under Workmen's Compensation Acts
Michigan Law Review
A farm hand, sent by his employer to work for a day at a neighbor's farm, was killed by lightning while returning home. At the time of the accident he was driving a team of horses, without a wagon, and was crossing a "high, rocky hill near a wire fence." An award under the Colorado Compensation Act was affirmed by the district court. On appeal from this affirmance, held, by a majority of the court, that "since Oakley's employment required him to be in a position where the lightning struck him, there was a causal relation between employment and …

Michigan Law Review
Plaintiffs brought suit in the federal court for the southern district of Texas on grounds of diversity of citizenship under the Louisiana Employers Liability Act to recover for the death of their father who had been killed by falling from defendant's dredge upon which he was employed. The contract of employment was made, and the death occurred in Louisiana. The Act is of the "optional" type. It provides that the employer shall, upon the accidental death of an employee in the course of his employment, pay compensation to the employee's dependents. Payment is to be made at periodical intervals for …

In the recent case of Lloyd-McAlpine Logging Co. v. Whitefish (Wis. 1926) 206 N. W. 914, the plaintiff brought action to vacate the award of the Industrial Commission in favor of the children of the deceased workman, who was killed in the course of his employment with the plaintiff company.

The Commission, on the testimony of a witness whose expressions were mere conclusions, with no …

Insurance-Liability Of Insurance Company For Negligence In Exercising Its Option To Settle Or Defend
Michigan Law Review
In a recent New Hampshire case, the plaintiff had insured with defendant company against liability for personal injuries to plaintiff's employees not exceeding $5,000.00.

One of plaintiff's employees was injured and though he offered to settle for $1,300.00, the defendant refused the offer. Thereupon the employee sued and recovered $13,500.00 in an action defended by defendant company according to their …

Workmen's Compensation Acts--Nature Of Action Thereunder A Propos The Extraterritoriality Question
Michigan Law Review
The nature of the right and duty created by Workmen's Compensation Acts has been the subject of considerable discussion by courts and writers, but still defies settlement. The United States district court in Kansas was called upon to decide this question in a recent case involving the application of the Kansas statute of limitations. The court held that an action under the Workmen's Compensation Act was not one entitling the plaintiff to claim the longer period which applied to "an action upon contract, express or implied." Davidson v. Payne, 281 Fed. 544. There is nothing in the nature or …

The Basis of Relief from Penalties and Forfeitures - The equitable principle of relief from penalties and forfeitures is so far elementary as almost to defy analysis. Many, perhaps most, of the judicial explanations of the principle have based it upon interpretation or construction, appealing to the doctrine that equity regards intent rather than form. Yet a logical application of this doctrine would lead to results very different from those which have actually been arrived at in the decisions. Thus, a stipulation in a mortgage that the mortgagor waives his equity of redemption can hardly be interpreted as meaning that …

Admiralty - Workmen's Compensation - Is a Hydroplane a Vessel? - Claimant was employed in the care and management of a hydroplane which was moored in navigable waters. The hydroplane began to drag anchor and drift toward the beach, where it was in danger of being wrecked. Claimant waded into the water and was struck by the propeller. Held, claimant is not entitled to compensation under the Workmen's Compensation Law, since a hydroplane while on navigable waters is a vessel, and therefore the jurisdiction of the admiralty excludes that of the State Industrial Commission. Reinhardt v. Newport Flying Service Corp. …

Constitutionality of the LA Follette Amendment to the Internal Revenue Law of 1921 - The United States Senate on November 5, 1921, inserted in the Revenue Act, then before the Senate, a provision that taxpayers in their income tax returns must specify what state and municipal bonds they hold, or else be subject to a penalty of five per cent. That provision was dropped out in conference, but it will come up again, and it is well to look at its constitutionality under the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution prohibiting unreasonable searches.
