Vaccines And The Law, Michael Sanzo Ph.D.
Vaccines And The Law, Michael Sanzo Ph.D.
Pepperdine Law Review
The last twenty years have seen a sea-change in the area of proving causation in the toxic tort setting, with courts demanding stronger, scientifically tested evidence. At the same time, a closely related debate has been raging about separating cause from coincidence under the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act compensation program for injuries that might have been the result of vaccinations. The Vaccine Act created a no-fault compensation fund financed by a tax on childhood vaccines to address harms resulting from those vaccines. Unfortunately, Congress gave little direction with regard to the level of causal certainty that would be required …

An Ethics Problem Involving Financial Abuse, Michael K. Mcchrystal
An Ethics Problem Involving Financial Abuse, Michael K. Mcchrystal
Marquette Elder's Advisor
This column, which analyzes a particular guardianship situation, illustrates the legal pitfalls created when an attorney, at the outset of establishing a guardianship, does not identify who is the client. When an adult child consults an attorney to establish a guardianship for an elderly parent, what obligations, both positive and negative, are imposed on the attorney to prevent harm to a former client.
From The Margins To Pacesetting: The Place Of The Elderly In U.S. Legal History From A Historian's Perspective, W. Andrew Achenbaum
From The Margins To Pacesetting: The Place Of The Elderly In U.S. Legal History From A Historian's Perspective, W. Andrew Achenbaum
Marquette Elder's Advisor
Prior to the Civil War, the small percentage of Americans who were elderly lived on the margins of society. Uncared-for poor elderly persons could be placed in poor-houses. Achenbaum discusses the evolution, through veteran's benefits, Social Security, corporate and union pension plans, and Medicare to a society where the care and well-being of the elderly are among the most important legal issues of the day.
The Disjunction Between Prevention And Compensation Of Hip Fractures Among Elderly Citizens: The Law's Role In Creating Ex Ante Incentives, Janis Sarra
Marquette Elder's Advisor
This article examines the relationship between the compensation for and the prevention of hip fractures among the growing population of seniors in Canada. Sarra postulates that the current system expends funds on liability protection that would be better spent on prevention. Options explored are no-fault compensation, redirecting legal resources, negotiated risk, and adjust[ing] the tax base to ensure that there are sufficient resources to support elderly individuals.
Life, Liberty, And The Pursuit Of Death Of The Inconvenient Other , Jonathan Penn
Life, Liberty, And The Pursuit Of Death Of The Inconvenient Other , Jonathan Penn
Marquette Elder's Advisor
This article looks at end-of-life issues, focusing on physician-assisted suicide, whether the United States government's numerous responsibilities created by the Older Americans Act and other similar acts, such as the government's financial limitations, and a growing elderly population will lead to a deterioration of society's view of elders and a legitimization and acceptance of assisted suicide.
