Medical Malpractice Law, Sean P. Byrne, Lauran G. Stimac

University of Richmond Law Review

Health care reform took center stage on a national level overthe past year. Despite suggestions that medical liability reform might be incorporated into the federal legislation, in the end, it was not. Similarly, this year saw few legislative developments at the state level in medical malpractice law, as the Virginia General Assembly focused its energy primarily on the budget shortfall and other issues.

Board of Medicine activity and medical malpractice trial results of interest are also highlighted …

Community Development Authorities, Andrew A. Painter

University of Richmond Law Review

Today, CDAs of varying sizes and purposes have been authorized by at least fourteen Virginia localities, and approximately twenty have issued bonds."

Fire Pattern Analysis, Junk Science, Old Wives Tales, And Ipse Dixit: Emerging Forensic 3d Imaging Technologies To The Rescue?, Thomas R. May
