The University of Barchester, Coketown University, Ipswich Cathedral Choir School, Gas Street Comprehensive School and the European Convention on Human Rights: A link?

This article focuses on the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) and especially Article 6 entitled Right to a Fair and Public Hearing , all now fully incorporated into the UK via the Human Rights Act (HRA, 1997). This article discusses the implications for UK education institutions and the potential conflict with the exclusive jurisdiction of the Visitor in English chartered universities and colleges. Also discussed are UK schools, colleges and universities as 'public authorities' and 'emanations of the state', the creation of a Higher Education Ombudsman as a 'Super-Visitor' or 'HERO' (Higher Education Regulatory Office), the impact of HRA and ECHR less dramatic for schools than for universities (or at least for the Visitor function within them), and finally the coming three decades of legal uncertainty and fees for lawyers.

How to Get Your Money in Foreign Countries by Ivo Greiter

How to Get Your Money in Foreign Countries by Ivo Greiter. Published by Kluwer (1988, ix and 253 pp incl Table of Contents). Price £43.50 (UK); $72.50 (US) It is regrettable that this book has a misleading main title (although an entirely accurate sub-title) because it is a very unique publication. As the Introduction states, it is a book which provides detailed information for a plaintiff dealing with foreign lawyers and courts in 151 countries around the world and in all the States of the United States of America as to court costs and lawyer's fees. In all these areas what the book does is provide the answers to a set of ten questions sent to lawyers practising in the countries concerned. The lawyers were asked these questions on the basis of a short set of assumed facts, that is to say, the failure of a party to pay for goods sold to it and an action by the seller against the purchaser to recover the purchase price. The immediate basis for the questionnaire is what is the legal position if the plaintiff wins and the defendant purchaser is ordered to pay the claim. Typical of the ten questions put were ‘Who will pay the court costs if …

An Economic Analysis of the Land Title Systems for Transferring Real Property

Auto Insurance Reform

Auto liability compensation arrangements are viewed as a total system, consisting of companies, courts, and lawyers. Inputs to the system are liability premium payments, some court costs, and some lawyer's fees. Output is in the form of benefit settlements for car accident victims. The efficiency of the system is identified as a ratio of output value to input value. Possibilities of reforming auto practice are discussed within this efficiency context. This discussion includes a proposal for negative insurance that would involve company purchase of an individual's legal rights to accident compensation.

Practical Problems Confronting the Practicing Lawyer

(which permit parties to be represented by counsel, as a matter of right), the parties are represented by counsel. In many of the remaining 20 per cent, the amount involved would not have warranted the expense of counsel if the dispute had been litigated at law. Arbitration benefits the lawyer-have no doubt about that. The lawyer's time is saved and his convenience is served by arbitration. There is no time-consuming procedure of attending calendar calls, waiting for the previous case to be finished, picking juries, and preliminary motions and appeals. The fee of the lawyer in arbitrations not only is at a much higher rate for the time actually spent, as opposed to court actions, but generally is as much in dollars and cents. The disposition of an arbitration in a comparatively short time assures the lawyer that the evidence and witnesses will be available, that a debtor will not have the usual lengthy period while a court action is pending to dispose of his assets and prevent collection of the claim, and that the controversy will be disposed of quickly and the lawyer's fee paid. The clause in a contract providing for arbitration of future disputes (or the submission entered into after a dispute has arisen) is the mainspring of arbitration, and from that clause and the procedure outlined in it or supplemented by the basic law or chosen by reference to the rules of an association, chamber of commerce or trade group, there will follow good, bad, or indifferent results. Merely providing for arbitration is not enough. There are pitfalls which must be avoided and experience serves as a guide. Uppermost in the mind of the lawyer, both from the standpoint of his client and himself, is whether his client will be entitled, as a matter of right, to be represented by counsel at the arbitration hearing. Some trade groups limit or effectively prevent such right of representation by counsel in arbitrations conducted under their rules. Before the client signs a contract or submission which provides for arbitration under the rules of a designated tribunal, it is, therefore, necessary to examine its rules. The Rules of the American Arbitration Association and, generally speaking, the rules of chambers of commerce provide that parties are entitled as a
