Download or read book Costs and Compensation Paid in Aviation Accident Litigation written by James S. Kakalik and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on a review of more than 2,000 U.S. airline aviation accident death cases from 1970 to 1984, this report describes the characteristics of the decedents and compares the compensation paid to their survivors with the levels of economic loss they suffered. The study found that the plaintiffs received 71 percent in net compensation, and 29 percent went for transactions costs. The findings indicate that airline accident litigation has higher transactions costs, but a lower ratio of transactions costs to total expenditures than tort litigation in general.

Book Synopsis Economic Loss and Compensation in Aviation Accidents by : Elizabeth M. King
Download or read book Economic Loss and Compensation in Aviation Accidents written by Elizabeth M. King and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report considers wrongful-death litigation resulting from aviation accidents. It compares benchmark measures of economic loss and loss to survivors with the compensation that beneficiaries actually received. The findings indicate that for the years under study, the tort system did not fully compensate survivors for the losses they suffered from air accidents; similarly harmed individuals were not treated the same; compensation paid through the tort system does not significantly add to safety incentives; and compensation and recovery rates have risen dramatically over the years under study.

Book Synopsis Contingencies, Resilience and Legal Constitutionalism by : Clive Walker
Download or read book Contingencies, Resilience and Legal Constitutionalism written by Clive Walker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contingency planning and resilience are of prime importance to the late modern risk society, with implications for law and for governance arrangements. Our risk society continues to seek ever more complex and detailed risk mitigation responses by law, including the UK’s Civil Contingencies Act 2004 and the US Homeland Security Act 2002, which respond to counter-terrorism, natural catastrophes, and other risks. This book seeks to analyse and criticise the legal developments in contingencies and resilience on a comparative basis, which engages with not only law and constitutionalism but also political theory and policy, including relations between public and private, national and local, and civil and military. Two transcending themes are of interest. One is institutional or structural – what bodies and power relations should we establish in a late modern world where Critical National Infrastructure is mainly held in private hands? The second is dynamic and concerns the grant of powers and arrangements for live responses. Both aspects are subjected to a strong critical stance based in 'constitutionalism', which demands state legitimacy even in extreme situations by the observance of legality, effectiveness, accountability, and individual rights. This book was originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of Human Rights.

Book Synopsis New Trends in Financing Civil Litigation in Europe by : Mark Tuil
Download or read book New Trends in Financing Civil Litigation in Europe written by Mark Tuil and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique and timely book analyses the problem of financing civil litigation. The expert contributors discuss the legal possibilities and difficulties associated with several instruments - including cost shifting, fee arrangements, legal expense insurance and group litigation. The authors assess the impact of these instruments from a law and economics perspective and provide empirical information on the way in which they work in practice. A transatlantic perspective on financing civil litigation is also provided. New Trends in Financing Civil Litigation in Europe reveals that as well as improving access to justice, several instruments have the potential to screen cases based on their quality. The book also shows how the choice of instrument can affect the behaviour of actors throughout the litigation process.

Book Synopsis Executive Summaries of the Aviation Accident Study by :
Download or read book Executive Summaries of the Aviation Accident Study written by and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1985, RAND's Institute for Civil Justice undertook a detailed study of aviation accident litigation in the United States. This report summarizes the resulting four detailed study reports. It describes the characteristics of the decedents and the litigation, and provides data on compensation paid, litigation costs, and economic losses suffered. The report compares the economic losses and transactions costs with the amount of compensation paid. The findings indicate that airlines and other defendants compensated victims' survivors for less than half of their average economic loss. The findings also indicate that aviation accident litigation has higher transactions costs than tort litigation in general, but a lower ratio of transactions costs to total expenditures.

Book Synopsis Dispute Resolution Following Airplane Crashes by : Elizabeth M. King
Download or read book Dispute Resolution Following Airplane Crashes written by Elizabeth M. King and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report summarizes results of legal actions that claimants pursued to recover their losses in major aviation accidents. In particular, it attempts to determine why some cases settle early and others do not. The authors describe the elements that distinguish air-crash litigation. They discuss the simple correlation between economic loss suffered and litigation process pursued, the theory behind the empirical models, and the operational definition of the empirical variables. The analysis indicates that, where large losses to survivors were involved, claimants were more likely to sue, to go to trial, and to have longer time to closure, indicating that the stakes are important in determining which cases make greater demands on the tort system.
