  • Nancy Buenger Abstract
    Nancy Buenger Abstract HOME RULE: EQUITABLE JUSTICE IN PROGRESSIVE CHICAGO AND THE PHILIPPINES ______________________________________________________________________________ The evolution of the US justice system has been predominantly parsed as the rule of law and Atlantic crossings. This essay considers courts that ignored, disregarded, and opposed the law as the United States expanded across the Pacific. I track Progressive home rule enthusiasts who experimented with equity in Chicago and the Philippines, a former Spanish colony. Home rule was imbued with double meaning, signifying local self-governance and the parental governance of domestic dependents. Spanish and Anglo American courts have historically invoked equity, a Roman canonical heritage, to more effectively administer domestic dependents and others deemed lacking in full legal capacity, known as alieni juris or of another’s right. Thomas Aquinas described equity as the virtue of setting aside the fixed letter of the law to expediently secure substantive justice and the common good. In summary equity proceedings, juryless courts craft discretionary remedies according to the dictates of conscience and alternative legal traditions—such as natural law, local custom, or public policy—rather than the law’s letter. Equity was an extraordinary Anglo American legal remedy, an option only when common law remedies were unavailable. But the common law was notably deficient in the guardianship of alieni juris. Overturning narratives of equity’s early US demise, I document its persistent jurisdiction over quasi-sovereign populations, at home and abroad. Equity, I argue, is a fundamental attribute of US state power that has facilitated imperial expansion and transnational exchange.

  • Frank Bauman, 2009 USDCHS Oral History
    FRANK A. BAUMAN November 21, 2005 Tape 1, Side 1 Portland, Oregon Foundational Years, 1921-1935 KS: This is Karen Saul speaking. I am a volunteer with the United States District Court Historical Society, and we are taking the oral history of Frank Anthony Bauman, Jr. This is November 21, 2005. We are in Mr. Bauman’s office at the Carriage House in Portland, Oregon, and this is the first tape and the first side. So, Mr. Bauman, would you begin by stating your full name, your date and place of birth? FB: Gladly, Miss Saul. Frank Anthony Bauman, Jr., and I was born in Portland, Oregon on June 10, 1921. KS: Mr. Bauman, I’d like to begin by having you tell me whatever you would like about your family history and your grandmother and grandfather. FB: Thank you. Let me begin with reference to my grandparents. I’ll take my paternal side first. My grandfather John Bauman, at that time spelt with two “Ns”, Baumann, was born in Berlin, Germany, and left Germany in approximately 1871 at the time of the Franco Prussian War. His reasons, I daresay, were twofold—one, political and two, as a young man he did not want to serve in a war to which he was not sympathetic. So he immigrated to America. Let me add that in 1977, I had the pleasure of being in Berlin for roughly one week when my son, Todd, was studying at the Free Berlin University, and I made an attempt to learn something about my grandfather through official records in Berlin.
