Asymmetric Information And The Selection Of Disputes For Litigation, Keith N. Hylton Jan 1993

Asymmetric Information And The Selection Of Disputes For Litigation, Keith N. Hylton

Faculty Scholarship

What explains the decision to litigate rather than settle a dispute? The standard theoretical approach to this question is a contract model that suggests that parties will litigate when the set of mutually beneficial settlement agreements-that is, the contract zone-is empty. The contract zone may be empty because the parties have divergent expectations of the trial outcome or because one party has more at stake than the other. The divergent-expectations explanation suggests that there are general respects in which litigated disputes differ from settled disputes and that one need not know the identities of litigants or the specific area of …

The Common Law Theory Of Experts: Deference Or Education?, Joseph S. Miller, Ronald J. Allen Jan 1993

The Common Law Theory Of Experts: Deference Or Education?, Joseph S. Miller, Ronald J. Allen

Scholarly Works

What if witness testimony emerges from, or can only be understood by reference to, an experience that the fact finder lacks? Or what if the connection between what a witness says and the full import of what the witness means is so arcane that the chances are virtually zero that the jury will understand what the spoken words are intended to convey? Both cases arise surprisingly frequently in the trial of disputes. For example, the problem arises whenever a witness is not fluent in English, as it often does when the common practice of a business or trade plays a …
