Book excerpt: Transportation agencies and their employees have always been concerned with providing safe roadways for the public. In recent years, the concern for safety has expanded to include concerns about the high cost of suits brought by those who have suffered injury or property damage due to the negligence of the state or its employees. With the recent court rulings concerning state government liability and the publicity of large damage awards, the issue of tort liability has become a significant concern of governments and their employees. Although the field of tort law has a solid foundation with its own terminology, it is in constant flux. To understand the concept of tort liability completely, one must first understand the terminology and the basic structure of a tort case from the initial injury through the final disposition of the case. This handbook is intended to serve as a guide to these basic, yet important, concepts of tort liability. Although most work situations present clear-cut indications of what are and are not possible torts, in many cases employees can rightfully question the potential tort implications of their actions. This handbook presents a broad outline of what constitutes a tort and identifies specific instances that may lead to legal liability. This handbook is not a definitive legal guide to the ins and outs of tort liability in the Commonwealth. Rather, it aspires to arm the employees of VDOT and of Virginia's municipal corporations with sufficient information to allow them to make informed and considered decisions in contexts that could lead to a tort claim against their employer or themselves.

Book excerpt: Court decisions concerning state government liability, as well as VDOT's continuing commitment to safety, have made tort liability an increasingly important concern. In response, the Virginia Transportation Research Council has published a tort liability handbook since 1995 to provide the employees of VDOT and of Virginia's municipal corporations with sufficient information to allow them to make informed decisions concerning events that could lead to tort claims against their employers or themselves. This handbook presents a broad outline of what constitutes a tort and identifies specific instances that may lead to legal liability. The handbook distinguishes tort liability from other legal concepts, such as workers' compensation, and explains each element of a tort claim. It intends to arm readers with a basic understanding of tort law and of potential liability issues that they and their employers may face. The handbook also aims to give readers a fundamental understanding of how a claim proceeds and the financial limitations of those suits. Contributory negligence, release, and Act of God are discussed in detail to help form a basic understanding of available defenses. Risk management can help reduce tort liability that employees and employers confront. Following the suggested actions, employees can limit this liability. If readers have questions concerning tort liability, there is a frequently asked questions section that may answer their inquiries. This handbook is not a substitute for legal advice.

Download or read book Personal Liability of Public Officials in Virginia’s Local Governments and Its Impact on Their Willingness to Serve written by George O'Neil Urquhart and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2016-01-14 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These are challenging times, and perhaps it is here that humans are viewed at their best and their worst. Everyone is accountable for what they say and do. And since government at all levels and its officials are not exempted, and who operate in a more open environment than they once did, primarily as a result of legislation providing for open meetings, more accessible public information, and under more open and recordable visibility, public officials must be more cautious and more aware of the decisions they make. Although a conscious effort on the part of public officials to avoid personal liability suits will help reduce the number of suits filed against them or the government, some preventive and proactive measures--e.g., becoming more proficient in the duties and responsibilities of office, cultural and social education, sensitivity training--must be taken to avoid the possibility of successful liability lawsuits. Public officials are held morally responsible for their decisions, and they are to be respected for the demands placed on them by virtue of that office. However, individuals, including those injured by a particular governmental policy or an official's decision, are not accepting grievous actions which go against their individual interests. Many are not content with exhausting administrative remedies; rather, they are turning to the courts for a remedy in cases of wrongful death, misuse of legal procedure, etc. A conscious, individual effort to reduce the occurrence liability suits through responsible public decisions will help hold the number of successful suits to a minimum.
