Intrusion And The Investigative Reporter, Lyrissa Barnett Lidsky

UF Law Faculty Publications

In an award-winning series of Houston Chronicle articles, reporter Nancy Stancill uncovered shocking conditions in Texas nursing homes. However, reforms were not implemented until 20/20, following Stancill's lead, conducted a three-month, undercover investigation of the treatment of elderly residents at Texas state and private nursing home facilities.

By employing subterfuge to gather news, the 20/20 reporters enhanced the immediacy and credibility of the resulting story. As one journalist argued, "[J]ust describing the conditions wouldn't have cut it. They had to be seen."

Using the 20/20 case as a paradigm, this Note argues that, in order to distinguish protected newsgathering activity …

Mercer Law Review

This Article surveys noteworthy cases that the Georgia Court of Appeals, the Georgia Supreme Court, the United States district courts in Georgia, and the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals decided during the survey period. This Article also reviews important acts of the Georgia General Assembly concerning corporation, partnership, securities, and banking law.

Evidence, Marc T. Treadwell

Mercer Law Review

In five previous Georgia and Eleventh Circuit evidence survey articles, the author extolled the virtues of the proposed Georgia Rules of Evidence.' These rules roughly tracked the Federal Rules of Evidence and would replace Georgia's existing evidence code which is, in reality, not a code at all but rather a jumble of disjointed statutes found in several different titles of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated and countless court decisions. The proposed rules were first introduced in the General Assembly in 1989 and were approved by the Senate in 1990 and 1991 but have never been reported out of the …

Legal Ethics, Roy M. Sobelson

Mercer Law Review

One of the traditional hallmarks of the American legal profession has been its virtual freedom from regulation. If there is any theme evident in recent developments in the legal ethics field, it is that this freedom is under increasing attack from clients, courts, the bar, and the legislature. The year 1992 was no exception, with a number of challenges made to the authority of individual lawyers and the profession itself. The Supreme Court of Georgia rejected one lawyer's challenge to mandatory court appointments and another's freedom to contract with a client for unlimited authority to settle cases.

The supreme court …

Trial Practice And Procedure, David A. Forehand Jr., Ken M. Nimmons

Mercer Law Review

The majority of a trial lawyer's work is completed before the jury is placed in the box. The extent of trial preparation is the only means by which one* can arguably predict success. The authors of this Article hope that the reader will view the law of trial practice and procedure as modern day weaponry in the war to preserve justice. To paraphrase Mark Twain, it is a worthy thing to fight one's own fight; it is another sight finer to fight for another man's.

Workers' Compensation, H. Michael Bagley, Daniel C. Kniffen, John C. Blackmon Jr.

Mercer Law Review

The year 1992 brought the most comprehensive workers' compensation reform legislation in two decades. Dramatic changes impact the amount and duration of temporary total disability benefits, the definition of change of condition, vocational rehabilitation services in noncatastrophic cases, and the return of subrogation by employers against third party tortfeasors, as well as many other changes in the workers' compensation system, as detailed below.

Georgia Goes Superfund: A Look At The New Georgia Hazardous Site Response Act, Robert D. Mowrey

Mercer Law Review

The enactment in 1980 of the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act ("CERCLA") is commonly attributed to the uproar surrounding the evacuation of the Love Canal neighborhood in Niagara Falls, New York. The discovery of thousands of buried drums containing hazardous waste on a Douglas County, Georgia horse farm known as Basket Creek might be considered Georgia's Love Canal, not because of any particular environmental similarities to the Niagara Falls site, but because of the similarities in legislative impact. Just as the publicity surrounding Love Canal gave sudden rise to CERCLA, Basket Creek provided the primary impetus to …

Wills, Trusts, And Administration Of Estates, James C. Rehberg

Mercer Law Review

This survey period has been interesting primarily because fiduciary law seemed to have paused for a breather. Immediately preceding this survey period, the General Assembly enacted the first truly comprehensive trust code in Georgia's history.' After the adoption of this code, with some relatively minor revisions, a time of study and evaluation of the new code, rather than litigation and legislative proposals, seems only natural. The few new statutes concerning fiduciary law will be covered after a discussion of a smaller number than usual of appellate court decisions in this area.
