Legal Hurdles Faced By Deep Green Buildings: Case Studies And Recommendations, Kathleen O'Brien, Nicole Denamur, Elizabeth Powers
Washington Journal of Environmental Law & Policy
The recent emphasis on building design, construction, and performance has revealed legal challenges and risks an owner or project team may face when attempting to construct a “deep green” building. The intent of this article is to encourage and facilitate the development of deep green and high performing buildings by reducing perceived and actual risks as well as challenges associated with their development, construction, and operation. This article explores these risks and challenges through a discussion of specific examples from two case study projects located in Seattle, Washington. These examples are arranged in two broad categories: (1) the process of …

Cash-flow is very important to any construction business and its effective management is a key function of quantity surveyors, particularly those working in the contracting sector. Successful cash-flow management is challenging at the best of times, but takes on a heightened importance in times of economic difficulty. Irish contractors and, in particular, subcontractors are currently experiencing unprecedented financial difficulties in the wake of the banking and property market collapse. In an attempt to alleviate these difficulties and improve cash flow within the Industry, Senator Feargal Quinn introduced The Construction Contracts Bill 2010, (The Bill) in the Seanad.

The RIAI ‘yellow’ and ‘blue’ Forms of Contracts have been recently amended and published as the 2012 edition. The yellow form where quantities form part of the contract is identical to the 2011 edition and has been republished as the 2012 edition. The 2011 version superseded the 2002 version. This paper reviews and synopsises the provisions of the 2012 RIAI ‘yellow’ form of contract and identifies the principle changes to the 2002 edition.
Civil Procedure—Property Improvement Claims—A History And Recommendation For Arkansas's Lone True Statute Of Repose, Luke K. Burton
Civil Procedure—Property Improvement Claims—A History And Recommendation For Arkansas's Lone True Statute Of Repose, Luke K. Burton
University of Arkansas at Little Rock Law Review
Determining the proper defendant for construction defects is largely dependent on the timing of the defect. Particularly, the sooner the defect develops after completion, the more likely that someone involved in the construction process is responsible. However, as time passes from the completion of construction to the development of a problem, it is more likely that the problems are the result of ordinary wear and tear rather than defective design or construction. Ark. Code Ann. § 16-56-112 (Statute) was enacted to manage these issues of timing and responsibility for construction defects by providing that homeowners may not bring suit against …

In this essay, prepared as the basis for the 2013 Dunwody Distinguished Lecture in Law at the Fredric G. Levin College of Law, University of Florida, I describe five aspects of the Supreme Court’s decision in NFIB v. Sebelius that are sometimes overlooked or misunderstood. (1) The Court held that imposing economic mandates on the people was unconstitutional under the Commerce and Necessary and Proper Clauses; (2) Whether viewed from a formalist or realist perspective, Chief Justice Roberts’ reasoning was the holding in the case; (3) The Court did not uphold the constitutionality of the individual insurance mandate under the …
