Apportioning Tort Damages In New York: A Method To The Madness, Paul F. Kirgis Jul 2001

Apportioning Tort Damages In New York: A Method To The Madness, Paul F. Kirgis

Faculty Law Review Articles

This Article proposes a unified formula for calculating damages in complex, multiparty tort cases. While the formula is my own, it incorporates the available case law and rests on the judgments of New York's most prominent civil practice scholars where no judicial guidance exists. Perhaps the most convincing claim to legitimacy I can offer, however, is the fact that my methodology produces results consistent with the principles motivating the statutory provisions at issue.

What's Law Got To Do With It: Mapping Modern Mediation Movements In Civil And Common Law Jurisdictions, Nadja Alexander Jul 2001

What's Law Got To Do With It: Mapping Modern Mediation Movements In Civil And Common Law Jurisdictions, Nadja Alexander

Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law

Context defines mediation and has a direct impact on how it is practised. National legal contexts reveal historically embedded systemic differences that can provide insights into the reasons behind the rapid expansion of mediation in common law jurisdictions, and the comparatively hesitant development of mediation in civil law jurisdictions. In this article I consider the legal and political forces behind the modern mediation movements in Australia and Germany: two countries that represent the common law and the civil law traditions respectively.

Epa At Thirty: Fairness In Environmental Protection, Eileen Gauna Jul 2001

Epa At Thirty: Fairness In Environmental Protection, Eileen Gauna

Faculty Scholarship

This Article looks at how EPA is managing the fairness issue in a discrete but highly charged context: permit issuances that affect heavily impacted communities. This Article first provides a discussion of how fairness-oriented reform might evolve within the permit process. This section also examines permit issuances that were appealed to the U.S. Environmental Appeals Board (EAB) on environmental justice grounds. Proceeding one step beyond environmental law, the Article looks at how EPA is responding to claims of disparate impact under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act. However, rather than focus on the intricacies of legal doctrine under Title …

Computational Inference For Evidential Reasoning In Support Of Judicial Proof, Tod S. Levitt, Kathryn Blackmond Laskey Jul 2001

Computational Inference For Evidential Reasoning In Support Of Judicial Proof, Tod S. Levitt, Kathryn Blackmond Laskey

Cardozo Law Review

The process of judicial proof accrues evidence to confirm or deny hypotheses about world events relevant to a legal case. Software applications that seek to support this process must provide the user with sophisticated capabilities to manipulate evidential reasoning for legal cases. This requires computational techniques to represent the actors, entities, events, and context of world situations to structure alternative hypotheses interpreting evidence and to execute processes that draw inferences about the truth of hypotheses by assessing the relevance and weight of evidence to confirm or deny the hypotheses. Bayesian inference networks are combined with knowledge representations from artificial intelligence …


Structured Deliberation For Dynamic Uncertain Inference, Paul Snow, Marianne Belis Jul 2001

Structured Deliberation For Dynamic Uncertain Inference, Paul Snow, Marianne Belis

Cardozo Law Review

Dynamic uncertain inference is the formation of opinions based upon evidence or argument whose availability is neither disclosed to the analyst in advance nor disclosed all at once. Normative accounts of belief change, which work well when the analyst has prior notice of well-designed experiments and their possible outcomes, may not be applicable to less tidy occasions of inference. In addition, there is the clerical challenge of keeping track of what has been observed, what relates to what, and how. This Article begins with a discussion of subjective valuation in general. An approach to deliberation, similar to what is practiced …
