Injunctions - When Enforcement Of Judgment Will Be Enjoined For Fraud Consisting Of Perjury, Michigan Law Review

The Washington Workmen's Compensation Act From The Employers' Viewpoint, Lowell P. Mickelwait
The Washington Workmen's Compensation Act From The Employers' Viewpoint, Lowell P. Mickelwait
Washington Law Review
Although this state has had a workmen's compensation act since 1911, the employers generally have, until recently, paid but slight attention to the administration of the act. They have proceeded on the theory that the accident experience of the particular employer had little or no relation to the amount of contributions required to be made by that employer under the act. The situation is very different today. Every well-advised employer now realizes that, in the long run, his industrial insurance premiums will tend to approximate the cost of the accidents occurring in his own plant. By the maintenance of high …

Procedure To Secure Benefits Under The Workmen's Compensation Act, John Geisness
Procedure To Secure Benefits Under The Workmen's Compensation Act, John Geisness
Washington Law Review
The Workmen's Compensation Act establishes funds for the payment of benefits to workmen injured in certain industries, and to their widows and children in the event of death. It also defines a procedure for the assertion of the right to such benefits. Under that procedure, the Department of Labor and Industries is vested with original jurisdiction over all claims. The courts are strictly limited to review of questions already passed upon by the Department unless the Department is acting outside of the jurisdiction conferred upon it. The legislature itself may not override the statutory procedure and appropriate money from one …

The jury returned a verdict of "guilty on both counts" and assessed "total damages" at $998.71. The trial court, on a motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict, ruled that as a matter of …
