University of Richmond Law Review

Fear has struck the workplace. The source of this fear is not lack of job security, inflation, recession or a concern about the United States' trade imbalance. The source of the fear is a disease--Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS)-and the virus that causes AIDS, Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).

The Limitation On Recovery In Medical Negligence Cases, Edward W. Taylor, William G. Shields

University of Richmond Law Review

Chapter 611, 1976 Acts of Assembly, provided for sweeping changes in the laws of medical and hospital negligence in Virginia. The Act affects all medical negligence actions arising after July 1, 1976. The legislation was enacted during a time when many perceived a medical malpractice crisis in Virginia. This article will review the historical background which led to this perception and will analyze whether, in fact, this crisis did exist. Finally, the article will demonstrate that the Act is both unnecessary and more importantly, unconstitutional.

The rule is typically used in cases where the parties have engaged in a course of dealing over a period of time and the wrong complained of has stretched over all or part of this period.
