No-Fault Vs. The Present Reparations System--A West Virginia Insurance Executive's View, F. L. Norton
West Virginia Law Review
In discussing no-fault insurance in any Law Review article, undoubtedly one with legal training undertakes the task with more than ordinary trepidation as, unfortunately, no one is able to fortify any position he might take with elaborate legal citations. Nonetheless, as a West Virginia lawyer, as president of a West Virginia-domiciled insurance company predominantly writing what future historians might some day call auto fault insurance, and as a citizen, this legal dissertation might be more properly classed as a sharing of some of my thoughts as to where we stand, and what legislative steps might ultimately prove in our best …

The Disability Insurance Benefits Program And Low Income Claimants In Appalachia, James B. Haviland, Michael B. Glomb
The Disability Insurance Benefits Program And Low Income Claimants In Appalachia, James B. Haviland, Michael B. Glomb
West Virginia Law Review
This article discusses the difficulty substantial numbers of low income West Virginians encounter in establishing their eligibility for Disability Insurance Benefits under section 233 (d) of the Social Security Act. These persons are characteristically middle-aged, unskilled workers who lose their employment as the result of a mental or physical condition of a non-traumatic, chronic origin. Because of their medical condition, combined with their advancing age and lack of skills, these persons are "disabled", yet they are denied Disability Insurance Benefits. An analysis of twenty-six "difficult" claims denied on the first filing, but refiled, reveals a pattern of unjustified denials in …

Automotive "Crashworthiness:" An Untenable Doctrine, Stephen J. Werber
Automotive "Crashworthiness:" An Untenable Doctrine, Stephen J. Werber
Law Faculty Articles and Essays
It is the purpose of this article to review the decisional law of automobile crashworthiness and to place it in the context of important policy considerations which justify such judicial determinations. It will be shown that the great majority of these decisions are entirely consistent with the doctine of "strict tort liability" as enunciated in section 402A of the Restatement of Torts, Second; that the questions sought to be submitted to juries in these cases are properly the subject of highly technical and complex legislative and administrative action on both a state and federal level; and that the few decisions …
Limitless Horizons Of Limited Policies Of Insurance, Harry H. Lipsig
Limitless Horizons Of Limited Policies Of Insurance, Harry H. Lipsig
Cleveland State Law Review
Limited policies have limitless horizons due to the selfishness of insurers. Why should insurers accept settlement offers that are close to the policy limits? After all, in most instances the insurers have nothing to lose except the insureds' money. Gambling with insureds' funds has led many to suggest that insurers be absolutely liable for all excess judgments subsequent to a rejection of settlement.
Set-Off Under Uninsured Motorist's Coverage, Leon M. Plevin
Set-Off Under Uninsured Motorist's Coverage, Leon M. Plevin
Cleveland State Law Review
The limits of liability under uninsured motorist coverage are fixed either by policy provisions or by statute. ... These various indemnity provisions were created so as to effectively limit any payments made by the insurance carrier under the uninsured motorist endorsement in combination with any other sources of indemnification to the maximum limit of the uninsured motorist coverage. The intent of the insurance underwriter is to limit its payment under the uninsured motorist coverage to the minimum amount where the insured is indemnified or partially indemnified from more than one source. The scope of this paper will specifically be concerned …
Group Insurance: Agency Characterization Of The Master Policy-Holder, Stephen K. Eugster
Group Insurance: Agency Characterization Of The Master Policy-Holder, Stephen K. Eugster
Washington Law Review
One of the major issues in connection with group life insurance is whether the master policy holder, the person who takes out the insurance, is the agent of the insurance company. This comment describes the general characteristics of group insurance and discusses the factors courts consider in finding an agency relationship between the master policyholder and the insurance company. Arguments are presented that the most equitable results are reached when the insurer is held responsible for the acts of the master policyholder under an agency theory.
