Wisconsin?

[edit]

Is the Wisconsin statement true? A quick search turned up an article saying repossession has been allowed since 2006. Did they change back? Is this still current? http://www.wisbar.org/AM/Template.cfm?Section=Wisconsin_Lawyer&template=/CM/ContentDisplay.cfm&contentid=63191 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnmoe (talkcontribs) 00:18, 31 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Plaintiff = property?

[edit]

In Northup v. Epps in Lousiana in 1853, the court issued a writ of replevin to the sheriff of Avoyelles Parish. The property that the sheriff was to take into custody was the plaintiff himself. He was held in slavery but claimed to be a free person abducted and sold as a slave. The papers were served on the defendant Epps and the sheriff took Northup into custody on a Sunday, and the hearing was held the following day, at which the plaintiff prevailed and then quickly left the state and went back to his native New York.

Should that example be mentioned here? Michael Hardy (talk) 19:32, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Most common name

[edit]

This article was moved from Replevin to Claim and delivery in September 2014, with http://global.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/498381/replevin as the edit summary. I've never heard of the phrase "claim and delivery" though. Articles should have the most common name. Do we have any other reliable sources to show that "claim and delivery" is the normal term now? --Closeapple (talk) 10:38, 3 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The official term in Rule 64 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure is still Replevin. However, many states, when creating statutory remedies to codify and replace common law replevin (and detinue and trover) have used the term "claim and delivery," cf. "Action of Claim and Delivery"| in the South Carolina Bench Book for Summary Court Judges. Also see [here for a source dating to 1883 attesting to "claim and delivery" used when codifying the right in State statutes. John Thacker (talk) 14:28, 30 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The traditional term is replevin, and has been for most of the history of the common law -- it also appears that the term "claim and delivery" is only used by some U.S. states, while other common law jurisdictions worldwide use "replevin" -- this should probably reflect the historic and more common name, replevin, than the newer statutory term "claim and delivery."72.89.115.63 (talk) 04:07, 22 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Claim and deliveryReplevin – This page was formerly labeled "Replevin," and the article still uses the term "replevin" instead of "claim and delivery" throughout. Replevin is the traditional name for this procedure in most English-speaking jurisdictions, as is described in the article itself, which refers to Canada and England, as well as in the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (Rule 64) -- the name was apparently changed without any discussion in September 2014, due (per the talk page) to some some American states having apparently renamed the process "claim and delivery;" Given that the procedure has historically been called "Replevin," and the term "Replevin" is used throughout the article itself, and apparently all wikipedia links to this page still are to "Replevin" (see, for example, the "Common Law" series box on the right hand side, which features "Replevin," but links to a page called "claim and delivery"), I request that it be moved back to "Replevin," which is at least the original name of the article, since it has not been established that "Claim and Delivery" has supplanted the term "Replevin" simply by being renamed in the Rules of Procedure in use in certain U.S. States. 72.89.115.63 (talk) 04:17, 22 January 2016 (UTC) Relisted.
