Lee V. State Farm Mutual Insurance Company: A Partial Exception To Georgia's Impact Rule To Allow Parental Recovery For Emotional Distress From Witnessing The Suffering And Death Of A Child, Joseph I. Marchant Mar 2001

Lee V. State Farm Mutual Insurance Company: A Partial Exception To Georgia's Impact Rule To Allow Parental Recovery For Emotional Distress From Witnessing The Suffering And Death Of A Child, Joseph I. Marchant

Mercer Law Review

In Lee v. State Farm Mutual Insurance Co., the Georgia Supreme Court created a partial exception to Georgia's impact rule. The court held that when "a parent and child sustain a direct physical impact and physical injuries through the negligence of another, and the child dies as a result of such negligence, the parent may attempt to recover for serious emotional distress from witnessing the child's suffering and death" regardless of whether the emotional distress arises from the physical injury to the parent.

The New Psychological Contract: Implications Of The Changing Workplace For Labor And Employment Law, Katherine V.W. Stone Feb 2001

The New Psychological Contract: Implications Of The Changing Workplace For Labor And Employment Law, Katherine V.W. Stone

Cornell Law Faculty Publications

In this article, Professor Stone describes the profound changes that are occurring in the employment relationship in the United States. Firms are dismantling their internal labor markets and abandoning their implicit promises of orderly promotion and long-term job security. No longer is employment centered on a single, primary employer. Instead, employees operate in a boundaryless workplace in which they expect to move frequently between firms, and between divisions within firms, throughout their working lives. At the same time, employers and employees have a new understanding of their mutual obligations, a new psychological contract, in which expectations of job security and …

Genomic Medicine: The Human Genome Project From A Healthcare Provider's Perspective, Georgia Wiesner Jan 2001

Genomic Medicine: The Human Genome Project From A Healthcare Provider's Perspective, Georgia Wiesner

Journal of Law and Health

But the Human Genome Project from my point of view as a healthcare provider has really been on what advantages and what advances can we be able to provide from that. So we really learned a lot about how genes work, how they talk together and how we actually have both health and disease as a consequence of the Human Genome Project. So really understanding this complex interaction is one of the most exciting things as well. What this really has done for healthcare is allowed us to individualize our healthcare. To be able to say for one person against …

Breaking Through The Erisa Blockade: The Ability Of States To Access Employer Health Plan Information In Medicaid Expansion Initiatives, Barbara Zabawa Jan 2001

Breaking Through The Erisa Blockade: The Ability Of States To Access Employer Health Plan Information In Medicaid Expansion Initiatives, Barbara Zabawa

Faculty Works

The article discusses the challenges and potential solutions for states to access employer health plan information under the constraints of the Employment Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) of 1974. It focuses on the importance of such access in supporting Medicaid expansion programs, using Wisconsin’s BadgerCare initiative as a case study. The article highlights the growing concern about "crowd out," where public health programs may displace employer-sponsored insurance, and argues for balanced public-private health coverage. It examines legal avenues for circumventing ERISA preemption, including federal law exceptions, Qualified Medical Child Support Orders (QMCSOs), and provisions under Title XIX of Medicaid. By …


The "Access" Problem: How Employee And Employer Issues May Increase Badgercare Participation By Impeding The Verification Process, Barbara Zabawa Jan 2001

The "Access" Problem: How Employee And Employer Issues May Increase Badgercare Participation By Impeding The Verification Process, Barbara Zabawa

Faculty Works

In its effort to be a welfare reform pioneer, Wisconsin has led the nation in adopting one of the most expansive public health insurance programs, "BadgerCare," to address the health care needs of working families in the post-welfare reform era. One year after BadgerCare implementation, Wisconsin is experiencing the fiscal impact of the program due to unexpectedly high enrollment in BadgerCare. While some Wisconsin leaders praise this growth rate for reducing the number of uninsured, others raise a concern that the enrollment figures may be rising due to employees opting for BadgerCare rather than employer-sponsored insurance. Consequently, this "crowd-out" effect …


Cybercoverage For Cyber-Risks: An Overview Of Insurers' Responses To The Perils Of E-Commerce, Robert H. Jerry Ii, Michele L. Mekel Jan 2001

Cybercoverage For Cyber-Risks: An Overview Of Insurers' Responses To The Perils Of E-Commerce, Robert H. Jerry Ii, Michele L. Mekel

Faculty Publications

With nearly seven percent of the world's population currently online and e-commerce forecast to hit $6.8 trillion by 2004, one need not be Nostradamus to predict that the Internet means great change for all industries - including the insurance industry. Presently, however, the proverbial cart is leading the horse as the insurance industry struggles to develop strategies to quantify, cover, and contain "cyber-risks." Policyholders also face new challenges as they confront the possibility that their traditional insurance coverages are woefully inadequate either to secure their electronic and intellectual property assets or to guard against their potential e-commerce liabilities to third …

Doctors, Hmos, Erisa, And The Public Interest After Pegram V. Herdrich, Jeffrey W. Stempel, Nadia Von Magdenko Jan 2001

Doctors, Hmos, Erisa, And The Public Interest After Pegram V. Herdrich, Jeffrey W. Stempel, Nadia Von Magdenko

Scholarly Works

The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 was enacted in the wake of highly publicized pension disasters in order to protect employee pension rights. Born as a piece of pro-worker legislation, it initially was criticized by business groups as a cause of bureaucratic arteriosclerosis that was worse than the disease of pension failures. Even worse, it prompted many employers to consider dispensing with pension plans altogether rather than struggle with the administrative and financial obligations of ERISA. Business, labor, and the public all complained about the law's complexity. It even became something of a national joke as regulators took …


An Inconsistently Sensitive Mind: Richard Posner's Celebration Of Insurance Law And Continuing Blind Spots Of Econominalism, Jeffrey W. Stempel Jan 2001

An Inconsistently Sensitive Mind: Richard Posner's Celebration Of Insurance Law And Continuing Blind Spots Of Econominalism, Jeffrey W. Stempel

Scholarly Works

Seventh Circuit Judge Richard Posner is well known for bringing economic analysis to bear on a host of issues, including infamously controversial notions such the market for baby sale. Not surprisingly, Posner's insurance law opinions reflect economics, but perhaps not to the degree one would expect. A review of Posner's 20 years of opinions relating to insurance issues reviews his pragmatic jurisprudence as well. Decisions frequently reflect not only economics but also situational context and considerations of business reality as well as a sophisticated grasp of basic insurance doctrine and contract law. As a general matter, Posner also displays considerably …

Coverage For Unfair Competition Torts Under General Liability Policies: Will The "Intellectual Property" Tail Wag The Coverage Dog?, Francis J. Mootz Iii Jan 2001

Coverage For Unfair Competition Torts Under General Liability Policies: Will The "Intellectual Property" Tail Wag The Coverage Dog?, Francis J. Mootz Iii

Scholarly Works

The scope of "advertising injury" coverage in general liability policies has been shrinking in response to the proliferation of liabilities caused by the growth of the cyber-economy. In response to this shrinking coverage under general liability policies, insurers have been quick to develop new endorsements and specialized products to fill the gaps in coverage. The author argues that significant commercial risks relating to unfair competition claims have been eliminated from coverage under general liability policies, but that there also appears to be no corresponding development of specific endorsements or stand-alone products to deal with this gap in coverage. Specifically, claims …
