Punitive Damages And The Consumerization Of Arbitration, Thomas J. Stipanowich Dec 1996

Punitive Damages And The Consumerization Of Arbitration, Thomas J. Stipanowich

Thomas J. Stipanowich

In this sequel to his 1986 article on punitive damages in arbitration, Professor Stipanowich explores the issues at the heart of the debate over whether punitive or exemplary damages should be available in arbitration between investors and securities brokers and firms. He critiques relevant proposals by the NASD’s Ruder Commission and examines mechanisms for more effectively addressing the punitive damages issue. This article predates and foreshadows the eventual recognition of the authority of securities arbitrators to award punitive damages.

Summary Judgment In Pennsylvania: Time For Another Look At Credibility Issues, J. Palmer Lockard Ii Dec 1996

Summary Judgment In Pennsylvania: Time For Another Look At Credibility Issues, J. Palmer Lockard Ii

J. Palmer Lockard II

Many Iawsuits are characterized by either minor or non-existent disputes over relevant facts, and such cases may be appropriately resolved by a more summary process than a full-blovvn jury trial. In recognition of this phenomenon, courts and administrators have attempted, since at least the eighteenth century, to fashion procedures that expedite civil litigation. Default judgments, judgments on the pleadings, summary judgments and directed verdicts allow courts to enter judgments at various points during the course of the proceedings prior to submitting the case to the jury. The most recent of these procedural devices to achieve trans-substantive application is summary judgment.

Jewish Law And Modern Business Structures: The Corporate Paradigm, Michael J. Broyde, Steven H. Resnicoff Dec 1996

Jewish Law And Modern Business Structures: The Corporate Paradigm, Michael J. Broyde, Steven H. Resnicoff

Steven Resnicoff

Many religious systems purport to govern both the financial and ritual activities of their adherents at the same time that these activities are ruled by secular legal systems. This phenomenon raises fascinating questions regarding the conceptual and practical interrelationships between these overlapping systems. Under Jewish law, for instance, a persons rights or responsibilities may decisively depend on whether a person is deemed the owner of a particular piece of property. In contemporary times, however, Jews often participate in various business organizations that are, at least ostensibly, creations of secular law. As a result, it becomes critical to establish whether, and …

Reconceptualizing Strict Liability In Tort: An Overview, Martin A. Kotler Dec 1996

Reconceptualizing Strict Liability In Tort: An Overview, Martin A. Kotler

Martin A. Kotler

Commonly, strict liability in tort is understood as doctrine that serves to impose liability based on the fact that the defendant caused the plaintiff’s harm, regardless of the culpability of the defendant’s conduct. This Article takes issue with that view and seeks to reconceptualize strict liability as doctrine which, like negligence, assesses the culpability of the defendant’s conduct. Negligence, however, judges the defendant’s conduct by comparing it the norms of behavior of the social group of which the defendant is a member. In contrast, strict liability assesses the defendant’s conduct by comparing it to the norms of behavior of that …

Twisted Interests: People In Interest Of S.A.H. And The State Of Open Adoptions In South Dakota, Thomas E. Simmons Dec 1996

Twisted Interests: People In Interest Of S.A.H. And The State Of Open Adoptions In South Dakota, Thomas E. Simmons

Thomas E. Simmons

In People in Interest of S.A.H., the South Dakota Supreme Court held that open adoptions, or post-adoption visitation by the natural parents, while not prohibited under South Dakota law when in the best interests of the child, should only be mandated when the trial court finds that it is in the best interests of the child by clear and convincing evidence. The court also instructed trial courts to weigh the needs of the child, the effect on integration with the new family, and the potential effect on the pool of other prospective adoptive parents. This decision, while securing judicial enforcement …
