Judicial Hellholes, Lawsuit Climates, And Bad Social Science: Lessons From West Virginia, Elizabeth G. Thornburg
Judicial Hellholes, Lawsuit Climates, And Bad Social Science: Lessons From West Virginia, Elizabeth G. Thornburg
Faculty Journal Articles and Book Chapters
The American Tort Reform Association (ATRA) was founded in 1986 by the American Medical Association and American Council of Engineering Companies, and now has hundreds of corporate members. Every year, ATRA releases a list of Judicial Hellholes: court systems alleged to be unfair to defendants. The name is definitely catchy: the thought of a judicial hellhole invokes images of Kafka, Satan and the Queen of Hearts. No wonder ATRA's hellhole campaign has embedded itself in media vocabulary.

Some Things Are Better Left Said: Pleading Practice After Bell Atlantic Corp. V. Twombly, Matthew A. Josephson
Georgia Law Review
In May 2007 the Supreme Court issued a landmark procedural decision construing and applying Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 8(a)(2). In Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly the Court boldly retired the plaintiff-friendly pleading standard established over fifty years ago in Conley v. Gibson and replaced it with a potentially more stringent plausibility standard that requires a plaintiff to plead facts demonstrating the plausibility of each claim. Considerable confusion has surfaced in the lower courts over the extent of Twombly's influence, with some courts limiting the decision to its antitrust context and others applying the decision to all civil cases. This …
