Teleradiology: The Perks, Pitfalls And Patients, Samuel D. Hodge Jr., Coryell Barlow Dec 2013

Teleradiology: The Perks, Pitfalls And Patients, Samuel D. Hodge Jr., Coryell Barlow

Samuel D. Hodge Jr.

The business side of medicine is driven by profits and changes have been implemented to achieve this goal with the utilization of such things as electronic medical records, e-prescriptions, the increased use of generic drugs and the reduction in the number of diagnostic imaging and blood tests ordered. A less well known change is teleradiology, the ability of health care providers to transmit radiological images, like X-rays, CT Scans and MRIs, from one location to another for diagnostic or consulting purposes. The premise is that a radiologist can diagnose images remotely from anywhere in the world as long as there …

The Decision In Akai: The Interaction Of Apparent Authority And Knowing Receipt, Michael Lp Lower

Michael LP Lower

The recent decision of Hong Kong's Court of Final Appeal in Thanakharn Kasikorn Chamkat (Mahachon) v Akai Holdings Ltd ([2010] HKEC 1692, CFA) illustrated the interaction of parallel claims in the tort of conversion and for knowing receipt when a director wrongly claims to be entitled to give a lender security over corporate assets that are then disposed of in exercise of the lender's (non-existent) security rights.


Dangerously Sidestepping The Fourth Amendment: How Courts Are Allowing Third-Party Consent To Bypass Warrants For Searching Password-Protected Computer, David D. Thomas Jan 2009

Dangerously Sidestepping The Fourth Amendment: How Courts Are Allowing Third-Party Consent To Bypass Warrants For Searching Password-Protected Computer, David D. Thomas

Cleveland State Law Review

This Note sets forth that it is unacceptable for law enforcement to ignore the presence of passwords simply because they may not be immediately visible. Furthermore, it is contrary to the Fourth Amendment for law enforcement to rely on third parties who grant access to search the data without knowledge of the password to unlock the data. Principles hammered out over time for searches and seizures of physically locked objects can easily be transposed and extended to fit the virtual world while still providing people the protections of the Fourth Amendment.

Apparent Authority And Healthcare In Illinois, Marc D. Ginsberg Jul 2002

Apparent Authority And Healthcare In Illinois, Marc D. Ginsberg

Northern Illinois University Law Review

This piece examines and dissects two Illinois Supreme Court cases which utilized apparent authority to hold hospitals and HMOs vicariously liable for non-agent or non-servant agent physician negligence. The author argues that the supreme court's effort to ground these decisions in classical agency law is misplaced. The article provides a general overview of the concept of respondeat superior and apparent authority, as well as a brief introduction to the structure of hospitals and HMOs. The author asserts that apparent authority should not be applied in the healthcare setting. Specific problems are roadblocks in the path of the Illinois Supreme Court's …


"Apparent Servants" And Making Appearances Matter: A Critique Of Bagot V. Airport & Airline Taxi Cab Corporation, Daniel S. Kleinberger, Peter B. Knapp Jan 2002

"Apparent Servants" And Making Appearances Matter: A Critique Of Bagot V. Airport & Airline Taxi Cab Corporation, Daniel S. Kleinberger, Peter B. Knapp

Faculty Scholarship

Minnesota law has long recognized the agency law principle of apparent authority. Minnesota law also provides that an agent is liable for the contractual obligations of an undisclosed or partially disclosed principal. Both of these well-recognized principles provided a basis for the plaintiff’s suit in Bagot, and both ought to provide a basis for similar suits in the future.

Judicial Recognition Of Hospital Independent Duty Of Care To Patients: Hannola V. City Of Lakewood, David A. Beal

Cleveland State Law Review

This Note will examine the court's rationale in Hannola v City of Lakewood and the previous leading Ohio case on emergency room care, Cooper v. Sisters of Charity. This Note will similarly examine "control" tests of employment, the concept of apparent authority and the series of cases on independent duty of care which have been decided in the eleven years between Cooper and Hannola. It is the conclusion of this Note that the Hannola decision is more consistent with the realities of employment and service in the health care industry, and that the public policy arguments presented by the court …

Authority Of The President Over Corporate Litigation: A Study In Inherent Agency, The , Roger J. Goebel

Faculty Scholarship

It is a traditional rule of corporate law that the board of directors exercises plenary power over corporate management. In fact, however, the twentieth century has witnessed a decided shift of the functional center of authority to the corporate officers. Although a basic residuum of authority remains in the board of directors, the officers, especially the president, in the majority of corporations exercise the day-to-day control of corporate affairs; In practice the modern corporation is occasionally directed by a general manager, but more often by the president (or perhaps, to use a mode currently in vogue for large public- issue …
