Administrative Justice and the Supremacy of Law (1927)

by John Dickinson

Overview

Dickinson examines the relationship between administrative tribunals and the courts, and problems that arise from the judicial review of administrative determinations. He is especially concerned with factors that determine the scope and purposes of a review. This study notably offers a near-contemporary assessment of the Hepburn amendments to the Interstate Commerce Act (1906) and other changes enacted in the early 1900s. With a table of cases. Originally published as Volume II in the series of Harvard Studies in Administrative Law. xiii, 403 pp.
