A Proposed Cure For The Intervention Blues, Lawrence E. Hard Apr 1969

A Proposed Cure For The Intervention Blues, Lawrence E. Hard

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

This article does not purport to provide a study of the doctrine of subrogation and the merits of that doctrine in the context of insurance coverage. There are several difficult questions which could be raised as to the proper role of subrogation in insurance litigation. This article assumes the propriety of extending the right of subrogation to the type of medical and hospital payment plans offered by the Services and analyses the device of intervention as a method of enforcing the Services' right to contractual subrogation.


Financial Statement Insurance: A New Approach To Ivestor Protection, Stephen Z. Surridge Apr 1969

Financial Statement Insurance: A New Approach To Ivestor Protection, Stephen Z. Surridge

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

The accounting profession rapidly is moving toward a crisis in liability. Members of the investing public are suing accountants with mounting frequency and success. This article will analyze briefly the origin and present dimensions of the crisis, and then propose a plan for replacing court-imposed liability with insured liability through the offering of financial statement insurance. The essentials of the plan can be simply stated. Insurance would be offered by accountants to investors on a voluntary basis in conjunction with purchases and sales of corporate stock and securities. Individual investors would be able to purchase from the auditors of a …

Estate Tax--Life Insurance--Section 2035 As A Basis For Including Life Insurance Proceeds In The Gross Estate Of An Insured Who Paid Premiums On A Policy Owned By Another Person, Michigan Law Review Feb 1969

Estate Tax--Life Insurance--Section 2035 As A Basis For Including Life Insurance Proceeds In The Gross Estate Of An Insured Who Paid Premiums On A Policy Owned By Another Person, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

If a decedent possessed any of the incidents of ownership of a life insurance policy, or if the policy proceeds were payable to his executor, the entire amount of the insurance proceeds is included in his estate for estate tax purposes under section 2042 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 (Code). However, if the decedent had transferred ownership of the policy to another person in a transaction that both met the requirements of section 2042 and was not regarded as "in contemplation of death," but continued to pay the insurance premiums until his death, it is unclear whether any …

Cornell Law Faculty Publications

What are the consequences of the application of legal sanctions? How can these consequences be determined? This Article attempts to explore these questions in the limited field of highway safety, examining the available evidence and indicating areas where further investigation is essential. Although conclusions with respect to the general deterrent effect of traffic laws do not emerge, the parameters of the problem are defined and plausible hypotheses suggested.


Competition As A Means Of Regulating Insurance, Jason C. Blackford Jan 1969

Competition As A Means Of Regulating Insurance, Jason C. Blackford

Cleveland State Law Review

The sole thesis of this paper is that competition among insurers, tempered by state supervision of their financial control, is a workable alternative to active state control of the business of insurance. It is not the purpose of this analysis to question the basic concept and the workability of affirmative government control of insurance. To test this thesis, a case study will be made of the rating process used in the business of automobile liability insurance in the State of Ohio.

Burden Of Proof For Recovery On Accident Policy Where The Defense Is Suicide-Virginia's Answer Jan 1969

Burden Of Proof For Recovery On Accident Policy Where The Defense Is Suicide-Virginia's Answer

University of Richmond Law Review

When the defense of suicide is raised in opposition to a claim for recovery on a life insurance policy, on a double indemnity provision for accidental death therein, or on an accident policy, courts are troubled by the allocation of the burden of proof. If the claim is made on a standard life insurance policy, suicide must be expressly excluded to be a valid defense. If so excluded, the defendant-insurer bears the burden of proving that the death was suicidal. On the other hand, if the claim for recovery is on an accident policy or on a double indemnity provision …

Book Review Of Daniel G. Baldyga's: How To Settle Your Own Insurance Claim, Joseph A. Page Jan 1969

Book Review Of Daniel G. Baldyga's: How To Settle Your Own Insurance Claim, Joseph A. Page

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

How to Settle tries to exploit the same vein mined in spectacular fashion by Norman F. Dacey, who parlayed deep dissatisfaction with the probate system and popular resentment of lawyers into a runaway best-seller. It would seem, up to this point anyway, that people more readily worry about the inevitability of death and its legal consequences than the possibility of personal injury caused by the legal fault of another. Nonetheless, How to Settle does merit some attention, at least within the confines of a specialized journal and under circumstances unlikely to promote a sales backlash, so that all its shortcomings …
