Subject: Quinn v Leathem

Presumably A.V.D. was Albert Venn Dicey, no less?

Quoting Jason Neyers:

Dear Colleagues:

I just had the (dis)pleasure of reading Quinn v. Leathem in depth for the first time and I found it to be one of the most poorly reasoned classic cases that I have ever read. Does anyone know of any contemporaneous discussions of the case that were hostile to the reasoning in the decision? The one that I have found in the LQR written by an A.V.D. is (I think strangely) quite glowing in its praise.
