Liesner v. Wanie: DQ1.13“It is conceded that if the plaintiffs had

substantially permanently deprived the wolf of his liberty—had him so in their power that escape was highly improbable, if not impossible, before defendant appeared on the scene and with his gun pointed so as to reach within some three feet of the animal delivered a finishing shot, it had become the property of plaintiffs….”

Liesner v. Wanie DQ1.14

DIRECTED VERDICTTrial Court Rules That One Party Presented Insufficient Evidence to the Jury to Meet the Relevant Legal Standard.

Page 13: (Last Day of Ludwig) MUSIC: Beethoven (Last Day of Ludwig) Symphonies #4 (1807) & #7 (1813) Recordings: Chamber Orchestra of Europe Nikolaus Harmoncourt,

Liesner v. Wanie DQ1.14:Liesner is Unusual Case:

Directed Verdict for Plaintiff (who has burden of proof in civil case).Language of opinion suggests that Trial Record contains factual disputes.Trial Court must have believed that undisputed evidence proved P’s case (i.e., D presented insufficient evidence to contradict undisputed evidence supporting P)

Page 14: (Last Day of Ludwig) MUSIC: Beethoven (Last Day of Ludwig) Symphonies #4 (1807) & #7 (1813) Recordings: Chamber Orchestra of Europe Nikolaus Harmoncourt,

Liesner v. Wanie: DQ1.14DIRECTED VERDICT

•Trial Court Rules That Insufficient Evidence to Meet Relevant Legal Standard Was Presented to the Jury

•Two Possible Grounds for Appeal– Trial Court Applied Wrong Legal Standard– Evidence Was Sufficient to Meet Legal Standard

Which was Wanie’s claim here?

Page 15: (Last Day of Ludwig) MUSIC: Beethoven (Last Day of Ludwig) Symphonies #4 (1807) & #7 (1813) Recordings: Chamber Orchestra of Europe Nikolaus Harmoncourt,

Liesner v. Wanie: DQ1.14

Wanie conceded the relevant legal rule, so must be challenging

assessment of evidence.

What exactly is still contested?

Liesner v. Wanie: DQ1.14

What exactly is still contested? “In the light of other evidence, all reasonable doubts may well have been removed as to who delivered the shot which so crippled the animal as to cause him to cease trying to escape, thus permitting appellant to substantially reach it with the muzzle of his gun at the instant of delivery of the finishing shot.”

Liesner v. Wanie DQ1.18(a)Prevailing Rule: “The instant a wild animal

is brought under the control of a person so that actual possession is practically inevitable, a vested property interest in it accrues which cannot be divested by another’s intervening and killing it.”

Meaning of Vested?

Pierson v. Post: DQ1.08 (Economic Benefits)

Helpful to argue to court that particular rule would tangibly/materially improve society.

• E.g., Dissent says foxes harmful to society, so good to kill them:

“[O]ur decision should have in view the greatest possible encouragement to the destruction of an animal, so cunning and ruthless in his career.” (p.5)

Pierson v. Post: DQ1.08 (Economic Benefits)

Helpful to argue to court that particular rule would tangibly/materially improve society.

• E.g., Dissent says foxes harmful to society, so good to kill them.

• NOTE: Can strengthen this type of argument with, e.g., description or evidence re– Importance of poultry farming– Extent of harm caused by foxes

Pierson v. Post: DQ1.08 (Economic Benefits)

Helpful to argue to court that particular rule would tangibly/materially improve society.

• E.g., Dissent…– Says foxes harmful to society, so good to kill them. – Assumes its hot pursuit rule would result in more

foxes being killed.

Elaborate why Judge Livingston might believe this to be true.

Pierson v. Post: DQ1.08 (Economic Benefits)

Why does the dissent think its rule will result in more foxes being killed? Unhappy Posts choose alternative activity.

Dissent: “[W]ho would keep a pack of hounds; or … would mount his steed, and for hours together ... pursue the windings of this wily quadruped, if just as night came on, and his stratagems and strength were nearly exhausted, a saucy intruder … were permitted to come in at the death, and bear away in triumph the object of pursuit?”

Pierson v. Post: DQ1.08 (Economic Benefits)

READING NOTE• Self-Quiz asked, “Who is saucy intruder?”• Answers said “Pierson,” BUT this passage is really

describing a hypothetical situation, so more precise answer would be “A person like Pierson.” (per Pinkert §D)

Argument that Majority’s Rule will result in more foxes being killed?

Pierson v. Post: DQ1.08 (Economic Benefits)

• Why does the dissent think its rule will result in more foxes being killed? Unhappy Posts Choose Alternative Activity

• Argument that Majority’s Rule will result in more foxes being killed? Determined Posts Work Harder at Killing (e.g., Whaling)

Pierson v. Post: DQ1.08 (Economic Benefits)Common Problem:

If you are not going to get expected reward for labor, how do

you respond?

Page 33: (Last Day of Ludwig) MUSIC: Beethoven (Last Day of Ludwig) Symphonies #4 (1807) & #7 (1813) Recordings: Chamber Orchestra of Europe Nikolaus Harmoncourt,

Pierson v. Post: DQ1.08 (Economic Benefits)

Common Problem: If you are not going to get expected reward for labor, how do you respond?

•Substitution Effect: Might choose differ-ent activity (in part or completely) that pays more or costs less.

Page 34: (Last Day of Ludwig) MUSIC: Beethoven (Last Day of Ludwig) Symphonies #4 (1807) & #7 (1813) Recordings: Chamber Orchestra of Europe Nikolaus Harmoncourt,

Pierson v. Post: DQ1.08 (Economic Benefits)

Common Problem: If you are not going to get expected reward for labor, how do you respond?

•Substitution Effect: Might choose different activity that pays more or costs less.

-OR-

•Income Effect: Could increase labor--do more of activity; more effort; more investment--until you earn desired reward.

Pierson v. Post: DQ1.08 (Economic Benefits)

Common Problem: If you are not going to get expected reward for labor, how do you respond?

•Substitution Effect: Could choose different activity -OR- •Income Effect: Could increase labor

Often hard to predict which effect will predominate in any particular situation.

(Empirical Q)

Page 36: (Last Day of Ludwig) MUSIC: Beethoven (Last Day of Ludwig) Symphonies #4 (1807) & #7 (1813) Recordings: Chamber Orchestra of Europe Nikolaus Harmoncourt,

Pierson v. Post: DQ1.08 (Economic Benefits)

The dissent assumes that we want to kill foxes as quickly as possible.

What Rule Would Be Appropriate if You Were Trying to Preserve Foxes Because They Were Commercially Valuable?

We’ll come back to in contexts of DQ1.10 & then Demsetz article in

two weeks.

Page 37: (Last Day of Ludwig) MUSIC: Beethoven (Last Day of Ludwig) Symphonies #4 (1807) & #7 (1813) Recordings: Chamber Orchestra of Europe Nikolaus Harmoncourt,

Pierson v. Post: (Intangible Interests)

Post unlikely to have cared much about monetary value of fox pelt; more likely angered by deliberate interference with activity of hunting.

DQ1.09(a): Is the “right” to hunt without interference a right society should protect

(where hunting is legal)?

Page 38: (Last Day of Ludwig) MUSIC: Beethoven (Last Day of Ludwig) Symphonies #4 (1807) & #7 (1813) Recordings: Chamber Orchestra of Europe Nikolaus Harmoncourt,

Pierson v. Post: (Intangible Interests)

DQ1.09(b): Post might believe Pierson killed fox spitefully for no reason except

to bother Post (ongoing family feud). Majority says we shouldn’t care.

Page 39: (Last Day of Ludwig) MUSIC: Beethoven (Last Day of Ludwig) Symphonies #4 (1807) & #7 (1813) Recordings: Chamber Orchestra of Europe Nikolaus Harmoncourt,

Pierson v. Post: (Intangible Interests)

Majority (last para.): “However uncourteous or unkind the conduct of Pierson towards Post … may have been, yet his act was productive of no injury or damage for which a legal remedy can be applied.”

Nice Version of “So What?”

Page 40: (Last Day of Ludwig) MUSIC: Beethoven (Last Day of Ludwig) Symphonies #4 (1807) & #7 (1813) Recordings: Chamber Orchestra of Europe Nikolaus Harmoncourt,

Pierson v. Post: (Intangible Interests)

Majority: “However uncourteous or unkind the conduct of Pierson towards Post … may have been, yet his act was productive of no injury or damage for which a legal remedy can be applied.”

DQ109(b): Is majority correct? Should a court take into account whether

Pierson had “bad intent” (as opposed to genuine attempt to hunt

fox for sport or pelt)?

Page 41: (Last Day of Ludwig) MUSIC: Beethoven (Last Day of Ludwig) Symphonies #4 (1807) & #7 (1813) Recordings: Chamber Orchestra of Europe Nikolaus Harmoncourt,

Pierson v. Post: (Intangible Interests)

If a court wants to take “bad intent” into account, what evidence could you use to prove Pierson’s intent here (not having access to Vulcan Mind Meld)?

Page 42: (Last Day of Ludwig) MUSIC: Beethoven (Last Day of Ludwig) Symphonies #4 (1807) & #7 (1813) Recordings: Chamber Orchestra of Europe Nikolaus Harmoncourt,

Pierson v. Post: (Intangible Interests)

PROOF OF INTENT•Required in Intentional Tort & Criminal Cases•Often Not Legally Relevant in Property Ownership Cases

Pierson v. Post: DQ1.09 (Intangible Interests)

PROOF OF INTENT•Required in Intentional Tort & Criminal Cases•Often Not Relevant to Property Ownership •Proof of Intent Often Expensive/Complex

– Ignoring Intent = Cheaper, More Certain Results – Determining Intent = More Fact-Specific

“Justice”

Can Use Unmade/Rejected Policy Arguments :•To support similar rejection in future cases: “The Pierson Majority treated bad intent as irrelevant, therefore….”•

Can Use Unmade/Rejected Policy Arguments :•To support similar rejection in future cases: “The Pierson Majority treated bad intent as irrelevant, therefore….”•To distinguish future cases: “The Pierson majority did not see bad intent as important in those circumstances, but clearly it is more important here because ….”
