What the Cities Want from the Legislature How to Conduct A Reappraisal Survey

GEORGIA LOCAL GOVERNMENT JOURNA1..~ •

UffiVf~-::·n- G7 GEORGIA

JANUARY, 1953

Law Institute Established Georgia's pub lic officials will soon have another agency to help them in their work. The new agency will be an Institute of Law and Government which will be located in Athens and operated by the Law School of the University.

The Institute will be primarily a research agency engaged in the study of Georgia's State Administrative procedures. It will also work on a revision of Georgia's civil and criminal codes. A third function of the Institute will be to conduct a series of short courses on various phases of legal activity in Georgia.

The Board of Regents approved the establishment of the Institute in December after studying similar centers in Louisiana and Texas.

Already $6,500 has been allocated to get t he project started. When fully operating the Institute's budget will amount to about $68,000 per year. The hiring of two additional professors and five student assistants in the Law School has been authorized to operate the Institute.

The new Institute is patterned after similar centers which are being established at law schools all over the country. 'rhe Georgia venture was proposed by Regent Charles Bloch of Macon.

Municipal officials are reminded, however, that the new Institute is distinct and separate from the University's Bureau of Public Administration which also is primarily a research agency and which is already carrying on a considerable program in behalf of both state and local government in Georgia.

REDDY KILOWATT POWER

Yes, Reddy, you have grown ••. and you're a giant of service.

Here in Georgia Reddy Kilowatt symbolize:;, t!1e electric energy produced and distributed by the Georgia Power Company. And here, too, Reddy has had to grow by giant strides to keep pace with the ever-increasing demand for more power. Last year alone Georgia Power spent $125,000 a day- $46,000,000 for the year- in expansion.

Huge generating plants were constructed ... lines wer e added and extended ... everything that was needed to meet demand was done.

During 1953 and 1954 anot her $84,000,000 will be spent oH expansion throughout the State. This means more power for Geor gia homes, farms and industries, for a better and brighter future for all of us.

Law Institute to Open in April; Public Service to Be Stressed When th e Institute of Law a nd Government begins work at The University of Geor gia L aw School in April a new and hig hly important phase of public se rvi ce will be added to University activities. Designed to make a n intensive study of " law in a cti on" a nd fitting th eory to facts , the Institute will develop a practical laboratory of the law where need ed improve m ents in th e procedural and substantive law of Georgia will be initiated.

Approval by th e Board of Regents and a lloca tion of fund s last December ensued from a proposal in Octob er by R egent Charles J . Blo ch, Class of 191 3, a promin ent Macon atto rn ey. Mr. Bloch , Chancellor Harmon W . Caldwell, Presiden t 0 . C. Aderhold a nd Dean J . Alton Hosch visited the Southwestern L egal Ce nter in Da llas a.nd the Ins titute of Government, Ch apel Hill, an d m a de studies of the Law Center a t New York University and th e L ouisiana State L a w In stitute , followin g which a d etailed plan for th e Georgia Ins titute was submitted to th e R egents.

Additiona l p er so nn el a nd physical facilities will be ne cessary in the d evelopment of th e Institute. T wo professors will be added to the law f ac ulty a nd fi ve st ud ent assistants will do part-t im e work on specific probl em s . Additional books and other m ateria ls u seful for th e typ e of work contemplate d will a u gment the present co ll ection in the law libra ry. T empora ry qu a rters for the Institute a r e t o be provided in the L aw Ann ex a fter necessary a lter ations a re co mpleted. The L aw Dormitory a lso will und ergo repairs so as to provide in a d; dition to rooms for students several room s for lawyer s and teach ers visitin g Athens o.n Ins titu te work .

It is contemplated that the Institute will cooper a t e with a nd m ake studies for th e legislature a nd various branches o.f th e State Governm ent, the Appellate Courts, th e Georg ia Bar Association, the Georgia Judi cia l Council a nd other agencies and gro up s in the State interest ed in law and the a dministration of justi ce. Much work can profitably be don e in specific field s of both public an d private Georgia la w. Another activity to be und ertaken is tha L of co ntinuin g legal edu cation for practicin g lawyers and busin ess m e n and mu.ni cipal a nd co unty officials. This can be accompli shed through a series of institutes similar to those offered in recent ye a r s , short courses, a nd publication a nd distribution of specifi c studi es of pa rticular problems. The publication of a law journal containin g articles an d notes as w ell as studies of current proj ect s und e r consider a tion at th e Institute will keep memb er s of th e bar a nd other interes t ed parties a ppriz ed of the scope a nd pr ogress 'of Ins titute work. The Law Sch oo l i tself will n ecessarily ben efit greatly in that both und ergraduate and g r a du ate law stud ents a nd fa culty will be brought mor e closely in contact with ever new, vital an d ch a lleng ing problems makin g up a la rge part of the fabric of the law of today.

There h as long been a ne ed in Georg ia for s u ch an organiz ation a nd it has ma ny potentialities fo.r good. In work-

ing toward more effectiv e legal solutions of mod ern problems in th ese changing times the Institute of Law and Government at The University of Georgia can m a k e a genuine contribution to th e majesty and power of law and justice.

Kell m:

In nswer to your request for further infor tion about 600 special fund discussed in our t lk with you on J nuary 25, I ould like to e th following points . erhaps it would be well to begin by emphasi ing t at we are not inter sted in setting p de rt ntal ~tbrary for the Institute. All research terials th t the In titute needs are conveniently at hand in th Law Library and will r in so, but research in Georgia law is d ily proposi tion for the Instit te just s it is for the J..aw School, and n ither can bo properl serviced without minim duplication of basic Georgia le al terials . the

De Hosch's chief concern w s that the Institut not be eriousl handicapped in its pri ry function of legal rese4rch nd continui g ed cation for G orgia lawy rs, state officials and alumni of the La School, a hand c~p w ich not xists b cause the Law Library do s not en hav e~ough sets of Georgia law books to meet the daily needs of the :follo ing grou s which it ser es, all of who are co cerned with the 1a of Georgia . These ou e: faculty, stooents , Revie .dit,rs, Bar Review stud nts ard. gr d te students fro various depart nts of the Univ ity.

In other words, though we e at pre ent very short of Georgia terials ve will be call d upon in ay, when the Institute goes into full oper·tion, to ·d still another group of researcher in the iaw of Georgi • e si ply will not. b ble to run h library effectively , itho t ddition 1 terial in this field . '

All law libraries recognize that duplication of st te ~£t~rials is a cardinal necessity in oper ting a library which is at all useful to the stat95lawyers. Our request therefore represents no radical departure f'ro standard library procedur • A co arison might be de bet en reserve books nd Georgia legal teri ls in th t both are in constant s with the di!ferenc th t the Georgi le 1 aterials never go off reserve. Th are used in every course every day. are deeply concerned i th taking so e of th the Law Library ' s inadequate supply of Georgia terials

Institute is progressing according to plan. The historic old residence to the north of the Main Law Building has been completely reconditioned and furnished and contains offices, conference and seminar rooms and a library. Available to the Institute are the facilities of the Alexander Campbell King Library of the School of Law and those of the recently completed Ilah Dunlap Little Memorial Library of the University adj acent to the Main Law Building. The slave quarters to the rear of the Institute Building contain offices of the Student Editorial Board and a Memorial Room.

Grounds have been beautified by a formal garden and other landscaping.

There has long been a need in this State for an organization such as the Georgia Institute of Law and Government and much work that needs to be done can be profitably undertaken here. The problems confronting our modern legal order are many and complex. Solutions to these call for skillful analysis of the problems as a starting point from which sincere and intensive effort must be directed toward the desired ends. It is a task that requires the thoughtful and enthusiastic cooperation of all of us and should command the best efforts of our hearts and minds.

DEDICATION AND LAW DAY PLANNING GROUPS Law Student Advisory Council University of Georgia Law School Association Law Faculty Committee

The DEDICATION of the

I nstitute o/ Law and Government Buildings and The Annual Law Day

The University of GEORGIA

School o/ Law Athens, Georgia May 1, 1954

The Institute of Law and Government As the School of Law completes almost a century of service to the State, it is indeed fitting that alumni and friends of the School join the law faculty, the student body, and administrative officials of the University and the Board of Regents in dedicating the Georgia Institute of Law and Government and the buildings which house the Institute. '\tVe therefore welcome you on this Annual Law Day in the belief that we shall witness the formal inauguration of a program here that will prove progressively more beneficial to the people of the State through its contribution to the orderly development of our law and the more effective administration of justice.

The Institute was established by the Board of Regents and began its work in April of last year.

It is designed to study law in action as well as in theory with the reasonable assurance that an intelligent and sympathetic appraisal of th.e law as actually administered must go far toward a realization of the law as it ought to be. Here lawyers, legal scholars, and those skilled in related fields can study specifically some of the things the law seeks to accomplish, review available materials, and by the application of legal thought and techniques formulate the basis for legislation reasonably calculated to accomplish the desired ends. In order to avoid the ever growing tendency toward centralization, there must be cooperation at the local level among those interested in making law effectively accomplish the task it seeks to perform.

The Institute can make studies for the legislature and various branches of the State government, including the appellate courts. It will cooperate with the Georgia Bar Association, the Judicial Council of Georgia and all other agencies and groups in the state interested in the administration of justice. Much profitable work can be undertaken in specific areas of public and private law, both substantive and procedural. An expanded program of continuing legal education for practicing lawyers and public officials will be undertaken. The Institute will cooperate in studies by state-wide committees of members of the bar on matters of vital interest to the bar and in which they are parti-

cularly interested. For some time the Law School has conducted a number of institutes which have met with widespread approval on the part of lawyers and businessmen and the law faculty has been cooperating with two state-wide committees of Georgia lawyers in studies of administrative procedure and rules of civil procedure in state courts. The Law School curriculum, including the development of a graduate program, must inevitably benefit from these studies. The legal horizons of both graduate and undergraduate students will be broadened as they take part through their own studies and investigations in the current activities of the Institute. Also the program of the Institute should prove helpful to members of the faculty, judges and lawyers throughout the State. It is planned that publications will include a law journal and independent printing of completed studies.

There will be available to interested parties the proceedings of the various institutes and short courses.

Among the studies undertaken during the past year and upon which work is now in progress are those dealing with trial and appellate court procedure, including methods of review of cases in an intermediate appellate court by a higher appellate tribunal; a survey of the common and statutory law respecting water rights; and a study of legal problems in both their civil and criminal aspects affecting Georgia youth. The collection and logical arrangement of regulations issued by various state administrative agencies with a view toward their publication for the benefit of the profession is being undertaken in order that legislation may be 路prepared providing uniform procedure before administrative agencies. A special study in the law of wills and administration of estates has as one of its aims the preparation of a manual for the use of ordinaries as a guide in the performance of their duties. Recently completed is a compilation of state and federal laws affecting the Board of Regents and the University System of Georgia.

The Board of Regents and the University Administration have made provision for the satisfactory operation of the Institute and the work of the
