  • Article Iii, Equity, and Judge-Made Law in the Federal Courts
    COLLINS IN PRINTER PROOF.DOC 10/17/2010 10:06:06 PM Duke Law Journal VOLUME 60 NOVEMBER 2010 NUMBER 2 “A CONSIDERABLE SURGICAL OPERATION”: ARTICLE III, EQUITY, AND JUDGE-MADE LAW IN THE FEDERAL COURTS KRISTIN A. COLLINS† ABSTRACT This Article examines the history of judge-made law in the federal courts through the lens of the early-nineteenth-century federal courts’ equity powers. In a series of equity cases, and in the Federal Equity Rules promulgated by the Court in 1822 and 1842, the Supreme Court vehemently insisted that lower federal courts employ a uniform corpus of nonstate equity principles with respect to procedure, remedies, and—in certain instances—primary rights and liabilities. Careful attention to the historical sources suggests that the uniform equity doctrine was not simply the product of an overreaching, consolidationist Supreme Court, but is best understood in the context of important and surprisingly underappreciated early-nineteenth- Copyright © 2010 by Kristin A.

    RECORD GROUP 1 JUDICIAL RECORDS OF THE FRENCH SUPERIOR COUNCIL Acc. #'s 1848, 1867 1714-1769, n.d. 108 ln. ft (216 boxes); 8 oversize boxes These criminal and civil records, which comprise the heart of the museum’s manuscript collection, are an invaluable source for researching Louisiana’s colonial history. They record the social, political and economic lives of rich and poor, female and male, slave and free, African, Native, European and American colonials. Although the majority of the cases deal with attempts by creditors to recover unpaid debts, the colonial collection includes many successions. These documents often contain a wealth of biographical information concerning Louisiana’s colonial inhabitants. Estate inventories, records of commercial transactions, correspondence and copies of wills, marriage contracts and baptismal, marriage and burial records may be included in a succession document. The colonial document collection includes petitions by slaves requesting manumission, applications by merchants for licenses to conduct business, requests by ship captains for absolution from responsibility for cargo lost at sea, and requests by traders for permission to conduct business in Europe, the West Indies and British colonies in North America **************************************************************************** RECORD GROUP 2 SPANISH JUDICIAL RECORDS Acc. # 1849.1; 1867; 7243 Acc. # 1849.2 = playing cards, 17790402202 Acc. # 1849.3 = 1799060301 1769-1803 190.5 ln. ft (381 boxes); 2 oversize boxes Like the judicial records from the French period, but with more details given, the Spanish records show the life of all of the colony.

  • BOOK REVIEWS the Westward Crossings: Balboa, Mackenzie^ Lewis and Clark
    BOOK REVIEWS The Westward Crossings: Balboa, Mackenzie^ Lewis and Clark. By JEAN- NETTE MIRSKY. (New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1946. xvi, 365, xiv p. Maps, illustrations. $4.00.) "Balboa, Mackenzie, and Lewis and Clark are not three stories, they are three episodes in one story—the penetration and exploration of the con- tinent. These episodes are tied together by a solid line of continuous de- velopment. ." Here in the author's words is the thesis of her book— the fundamental unity of North American history. This is not a new theme. The material covered has been discussed thoroughly by competent scholars to whom Miss Mirsky gives due credit in acknowledgments and in a well- chosen selective bibliography. Yet the professional historian can derive much of value from a reading of the volume for it fills the gap in historical writing between the "dry as dust" presentation and the oversimplified, overdramatized popularization. On the whole Miss Mirsky has adhered strictly to the standards of scholarship, and at the same time achieved a style of writing which by adroit use of incident, vivid phrase, and pertinent selections from diaries and contemporary accounts keeps the reader on the scene and as concerned about the outcome of events as the lowliest member of the expeditions. By emphasizing the interplay of Spanish, English, French and Russian expansion and in drawing comparisons and contrasts by shifting back and forth in time and space, she relates the European background to the Amer- ican scene and points out the significance of the expeditions for the broader development of the continent.

    YesWeScan: The FEDERAL CASES Case No. 5,173. GAINES V. AGNELLY ET AL. [1 Woods, 238.]1 Circuit Court, D. Louisiana. April Term, 1872. PLEADING IN EQUITY—39TH EQUITY RULE—MATTER IN BAR SET FORTH IN ANSWER—OLD PRACTICE—PLEA IN BAR—SUFFICIENCY. 1. The well known rule of chancery pleading, that if a defendant submits to answer, he shall answer fully to all matters of the bill, is abrogated, in cases where the defendant might by plea protect himself from such answer and discovery, and in his answer sets forth the matter of such plea as a bar to the merits of the bill, by the 39th rule in equity established by the supreme court of the United States. 2. Under the old equity practice, if a plea in bar was filed, and issue taken upon it, and that issue decided in complainant's favor, he was entitled to a decree without proving the allegations of his bill. If the same matters were set up in an answer, he was obliged to prove his bill; but in aid of such proof he was entitled to defendant's answer to the whole bill. 3. The new rule in equity practice (the 39th) which allows a defendant to set up a bar in his answer, and excuses him from answering further, still leaves the complainant under the burden of prov- ing his bill, and takes from him the benefit of the defendant's answer; but the defendant is liable to be called as a witness in the cause. 4. Under the new rule in equity (39th), where the answer sets up a bar to the whole bill, and claims the benefit of it, as a plea in bar, it is no longer a ground of exception, that it does not fully answer the allegations of the bill.

JAMES MOORE WAYNE-SOUTHERN UNIONIST GEORGE GORDON BATTLEr Mi ORE than half a century ago when I was, to use the then current phrase, attending lectures at the University of Virginia, there was a fellow-student frequenting with me the lawns, and the classrooms of Thomas Jefferson's famous institution. He was a young man, notably handsome, and with a charming personality. He had striking legal ability, and was a leading figure in the law courses over which Dr. John B. Minor, then Dean of the Law School, presided. He came from Savannah, and his name was George Wayne Anderson. He himself had an active and suc- cessful career at the Richmond Bar, which was unfortunately cut short by his early death. He was the great-grandnephew of James Moore Wayne of Georgia, Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, whose interesting and picturesque career forms the subject of this biography.
