Choice Of Law: The Abandonment Of Lex Loci Delicti--Should Virginia Follow The Trend?, Thomas J. Cavuto Jan 1978

Choice Of Law: The Abandonment Of Lex Loci Delicti--Should Virginia Follow The Trend?, Thomas J. Cavuto

University of Richmond Law Review

One of the great virtues of the common law is its dynamic nature that makes it adaptable to the requirements of society at the time of its application in court. There is not a rule of the common law in force today that has not evolved from some earlier rule of common law, gradually in some instances, more suddenly in others, leaving the common law of today when compared with the common law of centuries ago as different as day is from night. The nature of the common law requires that each time a rule of law is applied it …

International Products Liability Litigation: Choosing The Applicable Law, William W. Park Jan 1978

International Products Liability Litigation: Choosing The Applicable Law, William W. Park

Faculty Scholarship

Growth in transnational commerce and travel has substantially increased the cases in which injury-causing products have significant contacts with more than one state. A defective automobile is manufactured in Italy, by an Italian company, and exported to France; it is purchased by a French student who drives it to Oxford, where a defect in the steering causes an accident and injury. Or, an Englishman on a business trip to Italy buys a box of Swiss chocolate, eats the candy during a stopover in Paris, and falls ill on arrival back in London; as a result of the illness, he is …

The author criticizes the decision from an entirely opposite perspective, arguing that the court's …
