Davis* State Ownership of Beds of Inland Waters-A Summary and Reexamination I. INTRODUCTION States rely on state ownership of the beds of streams, rivers, and lakes for various regulatory and proprietary purposes. These include licensing of bed use, leasing of underlying miner- al rights, protection of public use rights, assertion of public trust powers, and location of boundaries of abutting privately-owned land. The extent of this state ownership in states created from federal territories is determined by a conjunction of the follow- ing: (1) the "equal footing rule," (2) the law of federal land patent interpretation, (3) state rules on incidents to title to abutting uplands, (4) federal and state definitions of navigability, and (5) the law of implied grants of land from the sovereign. States have asserted title to the beds of many streams, rivers, and lakes by assuming the correctness of certain interpretations of these rules of law. -
Commissioner Richard B. Long Chair, UUDDA/UUDA Drafting Committee
Memo to: Commissioner Richard B. Long Chair, UUDDA/UUDA Drafting Committee From: Joe Colquitt Reporter Date: September 24, 2015 Apart from a few routine tweaks, at the close of our meeting there were three issues to be addressed. I have spent considerable time researching, reading and deciding how to address the issues raised. Here are my suggestions: ISSUE 1: Question: How can a statute overrule a constitutional provision? That is a good question with an easy answer. It cannot. Thus, as explained below, I have tweaked the language in § 2(2) and left § 4(a) intact. Why the question? Section 2(2) defines “law” to include “the federal or a state constitution, a federal or state statute, a judicial decision or order, a rule of court, an executive order, and an administrative rule, regulation, or order.” Section 4(a) states that with limited exceptions, “if a law of this state requires or permits use of a sworn declaration, an unsworn declaration meeting the requirements of this [act] has the same effect as a sworn declaration.” Assume the enacting state’s constitution required all declarations used in adoption proceedings be under oath or sworn (any law to the contrary notwithstanding). Applying Section 4(a), the “law [i.e., “state constitution” – § 2(2)] of the state requires use of a sworn declaration,” yet 4(a) establishes that an unsworn declaration “has the same effect as a sworn declaration.” Ergo, the [act] trumps the state constitutional provision. But, of course, it cannot; thus, the provision is defective and declarations for adoption proceedings would need to be under oath as required by the state constitutional mandate. -

British Statutes in American Jurisdictions 197
December, 1929 BRITISH STATUITES IN AMERICAN JURISDICTIONS FREDERICKI G. MCKEAN, JR. The abstraction called the Law is a magic mirror wherein we see reflected not only our own lives, but the lives of all men that have been.-Attributed to Mr. Jus- tice Holmes. It has been said that man differs from other animals chiefly in this: that he retains in each generation that which has been handed down by its predecessor,, and, after applying the touchstone of experience, passes it to his successors. This commonplace has been phrased in the folk saying, "Experience is the best teacher", and in the legal aphorism that "the life of the law has been-experi- ence". An outstanding characteristic of the founding of this re- public was the tenacity with which our forefathers clung to their inheritance of the laws which their immigrant ancestors brought into the New World and adapted to the requirements of changed environment. John Adams is credited with the statement that he would not have taken the stand that he did in the War for Inde- pendence, if such action had involved the loss of the common law. Chief Justice Taft says, "We embodied in the Bill of Rights in our Constitution the principles of the British Constitution as they had. been established at the Common Law."' At the threshold of the Revolution the American Continental Congress of 1774, under the presidency of George Washington, adopted this resolution: "Resolved, N. C. D. 5. That the respective colonies are entitled to the common law of England, and more espe- cially to the great and inestimable privilege of being tried by their peers of the vicinage, according to the course of that law. -

LOYOLA UNIVERSITY LAW JOURNAL Volume 1, Number 2, Summer 1970 New Trends in Conflicts Rules Affecting Torts: A Chronological Review Richaid V. Carpenter* Around the turn of the century a Texas switchman named Slater was killed in Mexico due to the negligence of his employer, a Colorado corporation which operated a railroad from Texas to Mexico City. The switchman's widow and children, all citizens and residents of Texas, brought a diversity action in the federal court in Texas against the railroad for damages. On appeal, the Supreme Court, in Slater v. Mexican National R.R. Co.,' held that the Mexican remedy, support and pensions during necessity or until marriage, was beyond the power of the Federal courts to grant. The trial court attempted to substitute a common law remedy in the form of lump sum damages based on a jury verdict but on appeal the judgment was reversed and the action ordered dismissed.
