Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text indicates law, administrative practice, and police operations have become so intertwined that police administrators can no longer be effective without understanding the principles of civil liability. The text addresses the impact of judicial decisions on issues confronting police officers, such as use of force, high- risk drug enforcement operations, abandoning citizens in dangerous places, negligent operation of emergency vehicles, failure to arrest intoxicated drivers, negligence at accident scenes, and death and suicide in detention. Findings of police science research are incorporated into legal discussions to place the law in a context meaningful to police officers and executives. The text also covers the scope and impact of police civil liability, fundamentals of State tort law and Federal liability law, and shifting concepts of police civil liability and law enforcement. A list of cases is included.
Book Synopsis Products Liability Law by : Mark Geistfeld
Download or read book Products Liability Law written by Mark Geistfeld and published by Aspen Publishing. This book was released on 2021-10-07 with total page 800 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Products Liability Law, Second Edition, by prolific tort scholar Mark Geistfeld, represents the “next generation” of casebooks on products liability. Earlier texts focused on the relative merits of strict liability and negligence, embodied in the apparently competing liability frameworks of the consumer expectations test in the Restatement (Second) of Torts and the risk-utility test in the Restatement (Third) of Torts. The majority of courts, however, have incorporated the risk-utility test into the framework of consumer expectations. By providing balanced coverage of both consumer expectations and the risk-utility test, the casebook keeps pace with ongoing developments in the case law and moves beyond the battles that largely defined products liability in the twentieth century. In addition to teaching students how liability rules protect consumer expectations via comprehensive application of the risk-utility test, this innovative casebook underscores the importance of doctrinal history, the psychology of evaluating product risks, and the role of products liability in the modern regulatory state. Students will learn how courts have applied established doctrines to novel problems ranging from the relevance of scientific evidence in toxic-tort cases to the distribution of defective products on the Amazon online marketplace. To further illustrate this dynamic, the casebook has twenty-nine problems with associated analysis involving the liability issues likely to be raised by the emerging technology of autonomous vehicles. Finally, the casebook reinforces students’ knowledge of fundamental tort principles while developing specialized expertise and a deeper understanding of the torts process. New to the Second Edition: A dozen new main cases updating older case law, providing coverage of new issues not addressed in the First Edition, and/or improving upon the analysis provided by the associated case in the First Edition Retention of the majority of main cases from the first edition, with revisions to the ensuing notes incorporating relevant case law developments A reorganized and updated chapter covering the controversy over the relative merits of the consumer expectations and risk-utility tests Comprehensive discussion of the tort version of the implied warranty—the genesis of the consumer expectations test—and its relation to product malfunctions and the risk-utility test A new chapter addressing the existence of the tort duty and identifying the difference between patent dangers and patent defects Reorganization of the chapter on factual causation, emphasizing the continuity of evidentiary problems running across different types of cases, ranging from the heeding presumption in warning cases, to market-share liability, to proof of both general and specific causation in toxic-tort cases Professors and students will benefit from: Classroom-tested materials taught for over 20 years by an award-winning professor Interesting cases that illustrate both the traditional and contemporary character of products liability litigation; cases are followed by extensive notes Each chapter addressing doctrinal issues concludes with problems on autonomous vehicles. The full set of 29 problems provides students with the necessary background for understanding liability issues posed by this emerging technology. Each problem is followed by the author’s analysis of the associated issues, cross-referenced to the relevant casebook material.

Book Synopsis Launching Space Objects: Issues of Liability and Future Prospects by : Valérie Kayser
Download or read book Launching Space Objects: Issues of Liability and Future Prospects written by Valérie Kayser and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2001-10-31 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Launch activities performed by private entities deal with a complex legal environment. The Space Treaties provide a general liability framework. Launch participants are subject to regulatory or institutional control, and to domestic liability laws. Specific contractual practice has developed due to insurance limitations, the inter-participants' waivers of liability and claims. This book synthesizes information on the norms of play, to allow the grasp of their relative weight and interactions in the assessment of liability risk for launch activities. It reveals a legal framework presently lacking sufficient predictability for an efficient liability risk management: the waivers of liability suffer weaknesses as do all such clauses, and lack uniformity and reliability; and the Space Treaties contain ambiguous terms preventing predictable determination of the States responsible for authorizing and supervising launch activities and for damage compensation, and do not reflect the liability of launch operators. This book offers suggestions of new approaches for: harmonizing waivers of liability to improve their consistency, validity and flow-down; and improving the Space Treaties for their implementation to non-governmental launch activities. In the launch community, the need for lawmaking is less compelling than in fields such as aviation. Nevertheless, adjustments to the present framework are proposed through model clauses and an international instrument, for further thinking and contribution by those sharing the opinion that creative lawmaking is needed now to prepare for tomorrow's endeavors.
Book Synopsis Critical Issues in Police Civil Liability by : Victor E. Kappeler
Download or read book Critical Issues in Police Civil Liability written by Victor E. Kappeler and published by Waveland Press. This book was released on 2006-02-24 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on the strength of previous editions, the fourth edition presents a well-conceived, clearly stated analysis of complex issues confronting law enforcement officers and administrators. Law enforcement duties sometimes place police officers in vulnerable positions regarding their legal obligations and expose them to charges of misconduct. Civil liability is an extremely expensive proposition for police officers, law enforcement agencies, governments, andultimatelytaxpayers. Although substantial resources are often expended by the justice system to resolve liability cases, there are benefits to citizens. When the government assumes the responsibility to provide service or to protect the public, people injured by inadequate performance of those responsibilities deserve compensation; innocent parties who suffer injury should have an avenue for redress. The potential for litigation has been an impetus for better training and more responsible practices. Another excellent resource on the topic, Kappelers edited volume of Supreme Court cases, Police Civil Liability, Second Edition, allows students to understand firsthand the legal reasoning behind Court decisions dealing with these same issues.

Book Synopsis General Liability Insurance Coverage by : Randy J. Maniloff
Download or read book General Liability Insurance Coverage written by Randy J. Maniloff and published by National Underwriter Company. This book was released on 2015-02-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Those involved with general (and professional) liability insurance claims, such as insurance company claims professionals, coverage counsel, risk managers and brokers all respond to a new claim scenario with the same three words: Is it covered? [That may also be the last time that they agree on anything.] It's just three words -- but the answer can be vexing. Despite the relative uniformity of general liability policies, states can differ widely in their interpretation and application of them. So the answer to the "Is it covered?" question can depend a great deal on whether the case arises on one side of the street (or river or mountain) or another.General liability issues usually involve one or more rules, or schools of thought, that govern their resolution. The task for courts is often to identify and examine these various rules and decide which to apply to the claim before it. "General Liability Insurance Coverage -- Key Issues in Every State" sets forth the rules that have been adopted by all 50 states, and the District of Columbia, for 21 important and commonly occurring general liability insurance coverage issues. And about half the issues are just as relevant for professional liability claims scenarios. 50 State Surveys on insurance coverage issues are inherently limited. "Key Issues" understands this and seeks to provide as much relevant information as possible to maximize their usefulness. To the extent possible, "Key Issues" sets out the aspects of cases (e.g., facts and/or policy language) that were at issue in the court's decision. This enables the reader to compare the cases in the book, to his or her claim at hand, and come away with an understanding of how the issue may be resolved by a court. Although "Key Issues" is aimed at attorneys and insurance professionals with some degree of experience, it is accessible to entry-level readers as well. Chapter 1 provides an overview of the CGL policy. Each chapter after that contains an overview of the nature, background, development, and competing schools of thought concerning a key issue followed by a comprehensive state-by-state summary of relevant law, including the latest cases and developments.Table of ContentsCommercial General Liability Insurance-An OverviewChoice of Law for Coverage DisputesLate Notice Defense Under "Occurrence" Policies: Is Prejudice to the Insurer Required?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the relative uniformity of general liability policies (and professional liability policies), states can differ widely in their interpretation and application of them. Case law can have a dramatic impact on the question whether coverage is owed. Simply put, those involved with liability claims cannot adequately assess coverage issues without knowing how case law in the relevant state may impact the decision.
