Can We Forgive Those Who Batter? Proposing An End To The Collateral Consequences Of Civil Domestic Violence Cases, Joann Sahl
Marquette Law Review
Domestic violence is the most common tort committed in our country, involving nearly 1.3 million victims. When a domestic violence incident occurs, the press regularly reports it. Highlighted in these articles is the name of the perpetrator. Perpetrators identified as committing an act of domestic violence face public outrage, contempt, and stigma. This is particularly true if a court determines that the act of domestic violence necessitates a civil protection order (CPO) that bars the perpetrator from having any contact with the victim. Nearly 1.2 million people receive a CPO each year. More people use this civil remedy than those …

Discussions of race-related issues are a constant in American society. Within the last year alone, there have been several high profile events that have prompted important debates about race. Most of the events attracting nationwide attention involved the conduct of law enforcement agents, including incidents in which unarmed black men died at the hands of police officers, peaceful protests that turned violent following the failure to indict the police officers involved in those cases and the use of excessive force on black teenagers attending social events and while at school. Other events included the racial identity controversy regarding a member …

Agencies And Science-Experiment Risk, Eric E. Johnson
Faculty Articles
There is a curious absence of legal constraints on U.S. government agencies undertaking potentially risky scientific research. Some of these activities may present a risk of killing millions or even destroying the planet. Current law leaves it to agencies to decide for themselves whether their activities fall within the bounds of acceptable risk. This Article explores to what extent and under what circumstances the law ought to allow private actions against such non regulatory agency endeavors. Engaging with this issue is not only interesting in its own right, it allows us to test fundamental concepts of agency competence and the …

The Elephant Not In The Room: Apportionment To Nonparties In Georgia, Michael K. Newman
Georgia Law Review
Apportionment to nonparties generally concerns defendants alleging that certain nonparties are also at fault for the plaintiffs harm. A defendant's successful allocation of fault to a nonparty results in the defendant shedding a portion of their liability toward the plaintiff. If joint and several liability has been abolished, then this means that the plaintiff will collect less damages from the named defendant. This Note addresses how current practice in Georgia allows the defendant to do this with very little effort. Specifically, this Note takes issue with a recent Georgia Court of Appeals decision, Double View Ventures, LLC v. Polite, 757 …

Employer Escape Hatch Closed In Georgia: How The Interpretation Of Georgia's Apportionment Statute In Zaldivar Prohibits Employers From Using Respondeat Superior To Eschew Direct Negligence Claims, Michael D. Alfano Jr.
Georgia Law Review
In Zaldivar v. Prickett, Prickett (plaintiff)was working on behalf of his employer (Overhead Door) when he collided with Zaldivar (defendant). Zaldivar filed a "Notice of Fault of Nonparty" under Georgia's apportionment statute; this had to effect of requiring a jury to consider the fault of Overhead Door, which had recently received three anonymous phone calls complaining about Prickett's driving. The Georgia Supreme Court held that Georgia's Apportionment statute required that fault be assigned to Overhead Door, despite Prickett's inability to recover from Overhead Door. In this Note, I vary the facts of Zaldivar: Zaldivar becomes Klutzy Kellie; Prickett becomes Prudent …
