Federal Tort Claims Act Summarized, Russell E. Ake
Federal Tort Claims Act Summarized, Russell E. Ake
Cleveland State Law Review
To attempt a brief summary of the Federal Tort Claims Act may be likened to an attempt to explain atomic energy in ten words. But such a summary may be of some usefulness to our esteemed adversaries - the plaintiff's counsel in FTCA cases. Like most statutes, both state and federal, the text of this Act is encompassed within a few paragraphs. Then there follows a welter of interpretations, exceptions, and constructions. However, I shall attempt to hit the high spots and see if we can't come at least to a general understanding of what it's about and what it …

The Federal Tort Claims Act: A Proposed Construction Of The Discretionary Function Exception, Cornelius J. Peck
The Federal Tort Claims Act: A Proposed Construction Of The Discretionary Function Exception, Cornelius J. Peck
Washington Law Review
The purpose of this article is a limited one. It contains no suggestions for a broad statutory scheme for distributing all the burdens and costs of government. Its purpose is to suggest no more than a workable and just construction for the discretionary function exception of the statute. For the greatest part, the suggestion is no more than what the legislative history of the exception suggests—that the courts take note of the special problems of determining the liability of the Government for torts and then proceed to decide the cases as they would have done if the exception were not …

Torts - Federal Torts Claims Act- Pertinence Of Governmental Proprietary Distinction, David L. Nelson
Michigan Law Review
The tug Navajo went aground and its cargo was severely damaged by water. The owners and insurers of the tug and its cargo brought an action under the Federal Tort Claims Act alleging that the grounding of the Navajo was caused by the failure of the light in the lighthouse on Chandeleur Island, and that this failure was attributable to negligent acts and omissions on the part of Coast Guard personnel whose duty it was to check the light. The district court dismissed the action on the ground that the United States had not consented to be sued in the …

The National Guard And The Federal Tort Claims Act, Stanley D. Rose
Vanderbilt Law Review
In a comment appearing in a previous issue of the Vanderbilt Law Review there was a discussion of the application to military personnel of the Federal Tort Claims Act. One part of that comment may now be expanded. The torts of National Guards men whose units have not been called into federal service do not create a cause of action under the Federal Tort Claims Act. The National Guard of the United States is a reserve component of the Army of the United States. It is made up of the National Guard of the several states, territories and the District …
