Download or read book On the Judicial Interest Rate written by Hugo Acciarri and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although all legal systems use some form of prejudgment or post-judgment interest, there is no substantive law & economics literature providing for a comprehensive theory on the impact, functioning and assessment of the judicial interest rate. Mainstream legal scholarship has usually dealt with it as having neutral effects on private and social costs. In this paper we show that the issue is theoretically-wise far more complex and it has a definite influence on legal policy. Due to asymmetric opportunity costs for plaintiff and defendant, judicial interest rates may bring about improper delay of proceedings and/or decouple damages from recovery. Both effects influence the number of settlements and suits. On this ground, we compare different institutional settings from an economic perspective and conclude that the appropriate mechanism depends on the alternative available policy instruments, namely rules of procedure, court fees or appropriate setting of damages. Moreover, we will suggest that abolishing the statutory setting of prejudgment interest may be a worth considering proposal.

This book was released on 2019-05-31 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Legal, Real and Converged Interest in Declaratory Relief' is a combination of practical experience and dogmatic analysis that focuses on declaratory relief relating to disputes resolved within the framework of international commercial arbitration and litigation. It is construed as a remedy where the plaintiff seeks an authoritative judicial statement of the legal relationship. Although of enormous significance in dispute resolution, declaratory relief has not been analysed in detail until this study.00Focusing on the notion of ?legal interest? as a prerequisite to declaratory relief ? which the author views as a serious limitation of access to justice ? this book sets out to redefine the term in order to respond to the needs of modern legal dealing.

Download or read book Friends of the Supreme Court Interest Groups and Judicial Decision Making written by Paul M. Collins, Jr. and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008-08-15 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Supreme Court is a public policy battleground in which organized interests attempt to etch their economic, legal, and political preferences into law through the filing of amicus curiae ("friend of the court") briefs. In Friends of the Supreme Court: Interest Groups and Judicial Decision Making, Paul M. Collins, Jr. explores how organized interests influence the justices' decision making, including how the justices vote and whether they choose to author concurrences and dissents. Collins presents theories of judicial choice derived from disciplines as diverse as law, marketing, political science, and social psychology. This theoretically rich and empirically rigorous treatment of decision-making on the nation's highest court, which represents the most comprehensive examination ever undertaken of the influence of U.S. Supreme Court amicus briefs, provides clear evidence that interest groups play a significant role in shaping the justices' choices.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In Electing Judges, James L. Gibson responds to the growing chorus of critics who fear that the politics of running for office undermine judicial independence. While many people have opinions on the topic, few have supported them with empirical evidence. Gibson rectifies this situation, offering the most systematic study to date of the impact of campaigns on public perceptions of fairness, impartiality, and the legitimacy of elected state courts-and his findings are both counterintuitive and controversial"--Page [four] of cover.
