Problems Associated With The Management Of Solid Wastes: Is There A Solution In The Offing, Jeffrey M. Wakefield

West Virginia Law Review

Within the past decade, the level of environmental consciousness within our society has increased appreciably with the recognition of how delicate the ecological balance is and how easily it may be disrupted. Such consciousness has manifested itself primarily in stricter standards governing the emission of pollutants into the air and water. Unfortunately, this justifiable preoccupation with the quality of our air and water has overshadowed the needless desecration of America's land resources through the inadequate and environmentally unsound practices associated with the disposal of solid wastes. The purposes of this Note are to identify the scope of the solid waste …

Washington Law Review

This note begins by reviewing developments that created the legal and social setting for the Berman decision. After analyzing the court's opinion the focus shifts to the issue of damages. A valuation scheme is then proposed to effectuate the conclusion that both pecuniary and emotional damages should be awarded in wrongful birth actions involving impaired children.

Probability Theory Meets Res Ipsa Loquitur, David Kaye

Michigan Law Review

This Article uses probability theory normatively in an effort to clarify one aspect of the famous tort doctrine known as res ipsa loquitur. It does not urge that jurors be instructed in probability theory or be equipped with microprocessors. Rather, it seeks an accurate statement of the res ipsa doctrine in ordinary language. In particular, this Article will show that the conventional formulation of the doctrine is misleading at best, and should be replaced with a more careful statement of the conditions warranting the res ipsa inference. To this end, Section I briefly surveys the legal doctrine, or, more precisely, …

An Evaluation Of Immunization Regulations In Light Of Religious Objections And The Developing Right Of Privacy, Thomas E. Dover

University of Dayton Law Review

The spread of contagious diseases has been a major problem that has plagued society throughout history. In the recent past, smallpox and polio have struck down thousands of individuals, and today German Measles and other serious viruses continue to threaten the health of our population. Fortunately vaccines have been developed that help prevent these diseases from spreading through our population, and presently a large number of the communicable diseases can be combatted.

Schools are the most likely place for the spread of contagious diseases because of the daily contact of large numbers of students and teachers. The states have developed …

Outpatient Mental Health Care Services - A Minor's Right, John V. Cogbill Iii

University of Richmond Law Review

The 1979 Session of the General Assembly made important changes in Title 54 of the Code of Virginia pertaining to health care for minors. One of the principal changes involved the right of unemancipated minors to seek outpatient treatment for mental health problems without the consent of their parents. Additionally, lawmakers deleted the criminal sanctions imposed against medical practitioners who performed authorized abortions on consenting minors. This bill appears to bring into Virginia a partial realization of a child's right to due process and equal protection under the law.

Probability Theory Meets Res Ipsa Loquitor, David H. Kaye

Faculty Scholarship

Day in and day out, attorneys, judges, and jurors must estimate probabilities. To be sure, we rarely quantify such estimates of probability and almost never adopt the terminology and mathematics of probability theory to resolve matters. Nevertheless, the mathematical theory of probability can be applied to legal problems in various ways. This article uses probability theory normatively in an effort to clarify one aspect of the famous tort doctrine known as res ipsa loquitur. While not urging that jurors be instructed in probability theory or be equipped with microprocessors, it does seek an accurate statement of the res ipsa doctrine …

Mass Immunization Cases: Drug Manufacturers'liability For Failure To Warn, Mary E. Mann

Vanderbilt Law Review

In recent years, the manufacturers of polio' vaccines, administered in mass immunization programs at public health clinics, have been beseiged with a flurry of cases in which they have been held liable for failing adequately to warn of the dangers inherent in the use of an otherwise pure, unadulterated drug. As a result of the relatively large judgments awarded in these cases and the almost insurmountable practical problems of preventing further liability, drug manufacturers have ceased, or are threatening to cease, production of these essential, life-saving vaccines. Consequently, these recoveries threaten the effectiveness of the nation's preventative health care programs …
