    JURISDICTIONAL COMPETITION AND THE EVOLUTION OF THE COMMON LAW: A H YPOTHESIS * DANIEL KLERMAN Historians explain the development of the common law in many ways. Some emphasize the internal logic of legal concepts,1 while others focus on external factors , such as political, social, or economic conditions.2 A few point to the influence of philosophy3 or other legal systems. 4 For many, the institutional structure of the legal system is the central, whether it be the role of juries,5 the changing dynamics of pleading and post-trial motions, or innovation by lawyers in the service of their clients. 6 Among the institutional factors which influenced legal development, many historians point to competition among courts as an agent of legal change. 7 While references to jurisdictional competition are common in the * Daniel Klerman, Professo r of Law and History, USC Law School, University Park MC-0071, 699 Exposition Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90089-0071, USA [email protected].

  • TEMPORAL ASPECTS of the FINALITY of JUDGMENTS the SIGNIFICANCE of FEDERAL RULE 60(B) a Prime Function of Legal Systems Is the Settling of Controversies
    THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO LAW REVIEW and has punctured the illusions held by some 67 that the Webb law gave export associations a blanket exemption from the Sherman Act. Above all, however, the Alkasso case suggests the possibility that the exemption granted by the Webb Act may prove to be meaningless if the Act's provisos are properly enforced. TEMPORAL ASPECTS OF THE FINALITY OF JUDGMENTS THE SIGNIFICANCE OF FEDERAL RULE 60(b) A prime function of legal systems is the settling of controversies. Settling implies ending, and ending implies finality. Ordinarily, then, when final judg- ment is entered in a cause, all that remains is execution, the transmuting of law into force. But there is yet another prime function of law, and that is to do justice be- tween parties. judgment settles controversies; but the settlement may not necessarily be the most just. Common-sense notions of justice would seem to require that decisions be changed when they do not correspond with prevalent notions of right. The law has gradually been dvolving techniques to allow the victims of in- correct "final" judgments to secure relief in court. The process has been long and slow. The desire for absolute finality is strong, and satisfies both aesthetic and administrative needs. Techniques of appeal and rehearing allow correction of lower court misapplication of law. The development of techniques for work- ing substantial justice has been more difficult in cases where defects of fact rather than of law exist in the judgment, and the time for appeal or rehearing has passed. At common law a judgment could be set aside during the same term of court at which it was entered., Ordinarily, a judgment could not subsequently be set aside.

There can have been few stranger things in the legal history of New South Wales than the continuation until 30 June 1972 of the system of Common Law pleading, discarded in England in 1875 after evolving planlessly over the previous seven Centuries. The Judicature System in England was the culmination of half a century of reform in the procedures and constitution of the courts, prominent among rapid transformations in British economy, politics, industry and society in the Nineteenth Century. With the clamant warning of revolutions in France, the end of the all- engrossing Napoleonic Wars and the enhanced representative character of the House of Commons, the British Parliament and community shook themselves and changed the institutions of society; lest a worse thing happen. As well as reforming itself, the British Parliament in a few decades radically reformed the law relating to the procedure and organisation of the courts, the Established Church, municipal corporations and local government, lower courts, Magistrates and police, 1 corporations and economic organisations, the Army, Public Education, Universities and many other things.

  • Legal Fictions As Strategic Instruments
    Legal Fictions as Strategic Instruments Daniel Klerman1 USC Law School Preliminary Draft August 14, 2009 Abstract Legal Fictions were one of the most distinctive and reviled features of the common law. Until the mid-nineteenth century, nearly every civil case required the plaintiff to make a multitude of false allegations which judges would not allow the defendant to contest. Why did the common law resort to fictions so often? Prior scholarship attributes legal fictions to a "superstitious disrelish for change" (Maine) or to a deceitful attempt to steal legislative power (Bentham). This paper provides a new explanation. Legal fictions were developed strategically by litigants and judges in order to evade appellate review. Before 1800, judicial compensation came, in part, from fees paid by litigants. Because plaintiffs chose the forum, judges had an incentive to expand their jurisdictions and create new causes of action. Judicial innovations, however, could be thwarted by appellate review. Nevertheless, appellate review was ordinarily restricted to the official legal record, which consisted primarily of the plaintiff's allegations and the jury's findings. Legal fictions effectively insulated innovation from appellate review, because the legal record concealed the change. The plaintiff's allegations were in accord with prior doctrine, and the defendant's attempt to contest fictitious facts was not included in the record. 1 The author thanks Tom Gallanis, Beth Garrett, Dick Helmholz, Mat McCubbins, Roger Noll, Paul Moorman, Pablo Spiller, Matt Spitzer, Emerson Tiller, Barry Weingast, and participants in the USC- Caltech Symposium on Positive Political Theory and the Law for helpful criticism, assistance, and suggestions.

FACT & FICTION IN THE LAW OF PROPERTY † John V. O r t h O MODERN AMERICANS “legal fiction” brings to mind the novels of John Grisham or Scott Turow, but to an earlier generation of lawyers the phrase meant a different kind of make-believe. Essentially, legal fiction (in the old Tsense) meant an irrebuttable allegation of a fact without regard to its truth or falsity. The object could be to secure access to a form of procedure that was speedier, cheaper, or simply more likely to pro- duce the desired result. The old action of trover, to recover the value of personal property wrongfully withheld, began with an alle- gation that the property at issue had been lost by the plaintiff and found (trouvé in Law French) by the defendant who converted it to his own use.1 Of course, it was really immaterial how the defendant came to possess the item in question; it could have been purchased, or received as a gift, or actually found.

  • Mandatory Minimum Penalties and Statutory Relief Mechanisms
    Chapter 2 HISTORY OF MANDATORY MINIMUM PENALTIES AND STATUTORY RELIEF MECHANISMS A. INTRODUCTION This chapter provides a detailed historical account of the development and evolution of federal mandatory minimum penalties. It then describes the development of the two statutory mechanisms for obtaining relief from mandatory minimum penalties. B. MANDATORY MINIMUM PENALTIES IN THE EARLY REPUBLIC Congress has used mandatory minimum penalties since it enacted the first federal penal laws in the late 18th century. Mandatory minimum penalties have always been prescribed for a core set of serious offenses, such as murder and treason, and also have been enacted to address immediate problems and exigencies. The Constitution authorizes Congress to establish criminal offenses and to set the punishments for those offenses,17 but there were no federal crimes when the First Congress convened in New York in March 1789.18 Congress created the first comprehensive series of federal offenses with the passage of the 1790 Crimes Act, which specified 23 federal crimes.19 Seven of the offenses in the 1790 Crimes Act carried a mandatory death penalty: treason, murder, three offenses relating to piracy, forgery of a public security of the United States, and the rescue of a person convicted of a capital crime.20 One of the piracy offenses specified four different forms of criminal conduct, arguably increasing to 10 the number of offenses carrying a mandatory minimum penalty.21 Treason, 17 See U.S. Const. art. I, §8 (enumerating powers to “provide for the Punishment of counterfeiting the Securities and current Coin of the United States” and to “define and punish Piracies and Felonies committed on the high Seas, and Offences against the Law of Nations”); U.S.

  • Sleuthing Tips! How This Mystery Works: This Mystery Is Similar to the Board Game CLUE
    Murder n’ Mayhem - Sleuthing Tips! How this mystery works: This mystery is similar to the board game CLUE. (Think of this voyage as playing a live game of CLUE!) You will use CLUE Cards and evidence to solve the crime. There are three different CLUE Cards: Suspect, Weapon and Motive. Plus, evidence items also represent the one who is guilty and will help narrow down your list of suspects. Gathering Information: You are looking for the character that is a suspect, has a motive and has the weapon. Some characters are not a suspect; others are, but only have a weapon or a motive. Once you find the character with all 3 of these you will solve the crime. Interrogation Techniques: In your efforts to solve this crime there are many questions you will want to ask the suspects. Here are some examples: How did you know the deceased? Do you have any evidence that relates to the crime? Are you a suspect in the murder? Why would you want the victim dead? Do you own a weapon? (Note: These last three questions relate to the CLUE Cards.) Evidence at the Crime Scene: Unfortunately, some of the guests disturbed the crime scene and took pieces of evidence. Those who have evidence are able to use these items however they wish; bribery, blackmail, barter, etc… If you have a piece of evidence you cannot lie. You must share it. It is up to you though if you are sharing it for free, doing an exchange, or charging a fee. The number of evidence items that are relevant to the murder will be revealed during the voyage.
