Workmen's Compensation—Employees In Dual Activity, Gordon F. Crandall
Washington Law Review
The recent case of Muck v. Snokomish County PUD presented an issue involving the compulsory coverage of the Industrial Insurance Act, more commonly known as Workmen's Compensation, which has been a confusing question in several other cases, and does not yet seem to be finally resolved. There an employee was a sales manager for an electrical appliance store, and his occupation as such did not bring him under the compulsory provisions of the Act. No industrial insurance premiums were paid for his time. On the day of his death, he accompanied the serviceman to a customer's house where they were …

Workmen's Compensation, John M. Cate
Vanderbilt Law Review
A review of the past year in Workmen's Compensation in Tennessee must of necessity take into account any legislative change in the Compensation Act itself' as well as trends disclosed through the decisions of the courts. The modern development and growth of this new theory, that of liability without fault, make pertinent the inquiry. Although a development of one generation, the theory of Workmen's Compensation is now almost universal in application. Under it, industry bears its fair share of the cost of injuries to workers, without any reference to fault or blame or negligence, where there is a reasonably apparent …

Intervertebral Disc Injuries In Workmen's Compensation, Larry A. Bear
Vanderbilt Law Review
No lawyer regularly involved in workmen's compensation litigation can do a worthwhile job for his client unless he has a comprehensive and intelligent acquaintance with all branches of medicine. In the ordinary course of his practice, the workmen's compensation lawyer must deal with all types of industrial diseases, and even with disorders in the field of neurology and psychiatry.' Familiarity with a variety of medical conditions is made necessary because of such basic medico-legal problems as causation, involving the industrial or non-industrial origin of the disability at issue, dilration and the like. Of all the industrial injuries with which the …

Enforcement In One Jurisdiction Of Right To Compensation Under Workmen's Compensation Act Of Another Jurisdiction, J. L. Boren Jr.
Vanderbilt Law Review
Since the introduction of workmen's compensation laws in this country, problems of conflict of laws have been rife. This condition has continued despite the universal adoption of such legislation, because the enactments of the various states differ. State legislatures have varied as to the bases of coverage written into their statutes. Frequently, the terms of more than one workmen's compensation law express coverage of a particular injury. Consequently, problems of the law applicable to a given injury have arisen in many cases and have been widely treated by legal writers.' It is not the purpose of this Note to delve …

What Constitutes Covered Employment Within The Contemplation Of The Ohio Workmen's Compensation Act, Harry Kottler
Cleveland State Law Review
Workmen's compensation acts have been generally interpreted in three ways: first, as the substitution of a statutory tort for a common law tort; second, as the regulation of the relationship between employer and employee, which is primarily contractual in character; third, as the creation of a new statutory relation between master and servant, the chief incident of which is to impose upon the master financial responsibility for certain risks of service. While these represent the underlying legal philosophies in the enactment of workmen's compensation laws, the desiderata in enactment of workmen's compensation laws vary from state to state, and for …
