Indiana Law Review Consumer Product Safety Commission by Michael R. Lemov The Consumer Product Safety Commission keeps watch over 15,000 products. Its regulatory powers are extensive. Finally, there's a practical, comprehensive manual which explains just how this agency operates. Consumer Product Safety Commisson analyzes the interactions of the various statutes the agency enforces, and reviews important developments in case law. In addition to clear explanations of the various regulatory processes, the manual also contains examples of documents the practitioner must be familiar with, such as petitions to the CPSC and substantial hazard reports. It shows the relationship of federal law to state regulations. Plus, it discusses the relationship of federal law to private actions including products liability. Consumer Product Safety Commission is also an administrative law treatise which focuses on the regulatory activity of the agency. The author discusses the history of consumer product safety regulation by the federal government both before and after the establishment of the CPSC. Important cases and the various statutes which regulate consumer products are analyzed in depth with valuable guidance on procedural and substantive aspects of the CPSC. The CPSC administers many other statutes such as the Flammable Fabrics Act and the Federal Hazardous Substances Act in addition to the Consumer Product Safety Act. This newly published manual is vital for determining when the interaction of these statutes is likely to affect a client's interests. Many of the arguments the manual presents can be applied as is or adapted to specific situations. Name Address City State .Zip Please send me CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY COMMISSION.

Holden The various roles of the lawyer in federal tax practice pose concrete ethical questions which are carefully explored in this text. The issues implicated in return preparation, audit and litigation, tax planning, and policy formulation are examined in light of the au- thorities governing conduct in these settings. Additional areas of professional responsibility involving the role of accountants, conflicts of interest, confidentiality, tax shelter opinions, malpractice, and special problems facing government lawyers, are probed concisely and analytically. This unique new text combines important excerpts from law review articles, leading cases and rulings, Treasury regulations, and ABA and AICPA guidelines, along with the authors' commentaries, to examine and clarify the difficult, and often very subtle, issues that recur in federal tax practice. $18.00* 366 pages © 1981, The Michie Company softbound CONTEMPORARY LEGAL EDUCATION SERIES MICHIE^#^ BOBBSMERRILL P.
