Is F.S. §732.703 Susceptible To A Constitutional Challenge By A Former Spouse Whose Claim For Benefits Is Denied?, Donna L. Eng, Scott Konopka

UF Law Faculty Publications

It's a common scenario: A spouse takes out a life insurance policy during the marriage and designates the other spouse as the beneficiary. Subsequently, they divorce, and the spouse who purchased the policy neglects to change the beneficiary designation. Is the former spouse who is named as the beneficiary entitled to collect the proceeds to the policy after the death of the spouse who purchased the property? Based on FS. §732.703, the answer should be no. But, can a former spouse defeat application of the section by arguing that the section violates his or her constitutional right to freedom of …

Can You Keep It? An Examination Of The Individual Health Insurance Market, Rachael Carnale

Honors Scholar Theses

The passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA, ACA, or Obamacare) in 2010 significantly altered the structure of the individual health insurance market.

Michigan Telecommunications & Technology Law Review

It addresses both proactive and reactive measures that can be taken by manufacturers, how to incentivize these measures, and the role cyber-insurance can play in …

In Defense Of The Restatement Of Liability Insurance Law, Tom Baker, Kyle D. Logue 2017 University of Pennsylvania Law School

In Defense Of The Restatement Of Liability Insurance Law, Tom Baker, Kyle D. Logue

Articles

The importance of liability law to the American system of justice, and to the US economy in general, are well known. Somewhat less well known, at least among non-lawyers, is the corresponding centrality of liability insurance. For most non-contractual legal claims for damages that are brought against individuals or firms, there is some form of liability insurance coverage. Such coverage, provided by state-regulated insurance companies, ranges from auto and homeowners’ policies (sold to consumers throughout the country) to commercial general liability policies (sold to businesses of all sizes) to professional liability policies of various sorts (including Directors and Officers coverage …

Dinner For Two: Employer Mandate, Meet Erisa; How Dave & Buster’S Response To The Affordable Care Act’S Employer Mandate May Open The Door For Employees To Seek Erisa Relief, Kendall Victoria Dacey

Pepperdine Law Review

When the Affordable Care Act (ACA) became law in late March, 2010, Dave & Buster’s (D&B) had a choice: it could either comply and offer its full-time employees the minimum health insurance coverage required by the new “employer mandate” or it could ignore the new requirements and incur a penalty. Dissatisfied with either option, D&B made the drastic decision to circumvent the ACA entirely, and reduced its full-time staff below the ACA’s employee threshold so as to avoid triggering any penalty or having to pay increased health care costs. However, by dodging the employer mandate, D&B may have come in …


Carpooling Liability?: Applying Tort Law Principles To The Joint Emergence Of Self-Driving Automobiles And Transportation Network Companies, Jacob D. Walpert 2017 Fordham University School of Law

Carpooling Liability?: Applying Tort Law Principles To The Joint Emergence Of Self-Driving Automobiles And Transportation Network Companies, Jacob D. Walpert

Fordham Law Review

Self-driving automobiles have emerged as the future of vehicular travel, but this innovation is not developing in isolation. Simultaneously, the popularity of transportation network companies functioning as ride-hailing and ride-sharing services have altered traditional conceptions of personal transportation. Technology companies, conventional automakers, and start-up businesses each play significant roles in fundamentally transforming transportation methods. These transformations raise numerous liability questions. Specifically, the emergence of self-driving vehicles and transportation network companies create uncertainty for the application of tort law’s negligence standard. This Note addresses technological innovations in vehicular transportation and their accompanying legislative and regulatory developments. Then, this Note discusses the …


"A Nuanced Approach": How Washington Courts Should Apply The Filed Rate Doctrine, Kaleigh Powell 2017 University of Washington School of Law

"A Nuanced Approach": How Washington Courts Should Apply The Filed Rate Doctrine, Kaleigh Powell

Washington Law Review

As of 2015, the vast majority of the American public had some form of health insurance, mostly provided by private companies. While some customers might, at some point, contemplate suing their insurance provider—for breach of contract, consumer protection statute violation, or some other cause—these potential plaintiffs are not likely to get far in many cases. The reason is the little-known “filed rate doctrine,” a court-created rule that bars lawsuits against many agency-regulated entities. The filed rate doctrine is based on the fact that many states, including Washington, require health insurers to file their rates with a regulatory agency—and have those …
