Fellow Servant Doctrine In The United States Supreme Court, Albert Martin Kales Nov 1903

Fellow Servant Doctrine In The United States Supreme Court, Albert Martin Kales

Michigan Law Review

The difficulties of the fellow servant doctrine in the United States Supreme Court have been thought to centre principally about the Ross case. The Baugh case, has been said to go far toward overruling it, and the more recent case of New England Railroad Co. v. Conroy, is now taken as overruling it in terms. Nevertheless, the writer believes that the results of all t here cases may be supported upon a common principle. This principle it is the object of this article to suggest.

May The Plaintiff In A Personal Injury Suit Be Compelled To Exhibit His Injuries If So Under What Circumstances, Thomas H. Shastid

Michigan Law Review

Attention has been given in Part to the question of the existence of the power, in a personal injury suit, to compel the plaintiff to exhibit his injuries. That question being answered; and in the affirmative, it is next necessary to consider the various circumstances under which such power may be exercised. And, first, it is to be observed that, in the investigation of this latter subject, no account need be taken of the courts in which it has been definitely decided that the power does not exist.

May The Plaintiff In A Personal Injury Suit Be Compelled To Exhibit His Injuries? If So, Under What Circumstances?, Thomas H. Shastid

Michigan Law Review

It is everywhere admitted that, with certain restrictions, the plaintiff in a personal injury suit may, if he so choose, exhibit his injuries-either, in proper cases, directly to the jury; or, in other instances, indirectly, to physicians, who are afterwards to go upon the stand.
