The Selection Of Employment Discrimination Disputes For Litigation: Using Business Cycle Effects To Test The Priest-Klein Hypothesis, Peter Siegelman, John J. Donohue Iii
The Selection Of Employment Discrimination Disputes For Litigation: Using Business Cycle Effects To Test The Priest-Klein Hypothesis, Peter Siegelman, John J. Donohue Iii
Faculty Articles and Papers
Employment discrimination cases filed during recessions are more likely to settle after filing and less likely to be won by plaintiffs than those filed when the economy is strong. This model of litigation confirms two predictions of the Priest-Klein model of litigation. First, relatively weak cases (for either party) should be more likely to settle. Second, the party with the greater stake in litigation will have the higher win rate in adjudicated disputes; the special case of even stakes produces a 50 percent plaintiff win rate. The settlement process does not produce complete selection, however: the strong version of the …
Race And Gender Discrimination In Bargaining For A New Car, Peter Siegelman, Ian Ayres
Race And Gender Discrimination In Bargaining For A New Car, Peter Siegelman, Ian Ayres
Faculty Articles and Papers
More than 300 paired audits at new-car dealerships receal that dealers quoted significantly lower prices to white males than to black or female test buyers using identical, scripted bargaining strategies. Ancillary ecidence suggests that the dealerships' disparate treatment of women and blacks may be caused by dealers' statistical inferences about consumers' resercation prices, but the data do not strongly support any single theory of discrimination.

Law And Macroeconomics: Employment Discrimination Litigation Over The Business Cycle, Peter Siegelman, John J. Donohue Iii
Law And Macroeconomics: Employment Discrimination Litigation Over The Business Cycle, Peter Siegelman, John J. Donohue Iii
Faculty Articles and Papers
For the past two decades the law and economics movement has been one of the most influential forces in the legal academy. Its practitioners have relentlessly sought to unleash microeconomic insights on formerly pristine areas of legal doctrine. This Article focuses on a branch of law employment discrimination-that has already been examined from a microeconomic perspective. However, it represents a departure from the previous literature in that it considers the impact of macroeconomic phenomena on several aspects of employment discrimination litigation.

The Economics Of The Insurance Antitrust Suits: Toward An Exclusionary Theory, Peter Siegelman, Ian Ayres
The Economics Of The Insurance Antitrust Suits: Toward An Exclusionary Theory, Peter Siegelman, Ian Ayres
Faculty Articles and Papers
On March 22, 1988, the Attorneys General of eight states filed antitrust actions in state and federal courts' alleging that major insurance and reinsurance companies colluded to boycott specific types of insurance coverage in violation of section 1 of the Sherman Act. The suits suggest that this collusion was responsible for the unprecedented increase in premiums and concomitant erosion of coverage that has come to be known as "the insurance crisis."' The lawsuits have provoked fierce denials by insurance industry participants, including assertions that the suits, which came in an election year, were politically motivated.' The litigation is certain to …

Neoclassical Difficulties: Tort As Deterrence For Latent Injuries, Peter Siegelman, W.L.F. Felstiner
Neoclassical Difficulties: Tort As Deterrence For Latent Injuries, Peter Siegelman, W.L.F. Felstiner
Faculty Articles and Papers
Economists often claim that the tort system leads firms to provide consumers and workers with the socially optimal level of safety. Moreover, in the case of work-related hazards, employers are alleged to have another source of incentives to take precautions. If wages are sensitive to job-related risks, employers should spend money to reduce such risks when, by doing so, they can save more in wage costs than the costs of the precautions taken. Whatever their merits in other settings, in the case of latent injuries such as workplace exposure to asbestos neither tort nor market are likely to provide an …
