Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of a Lawsuit The system of pleading which it teaches, and which pre vails in Tennessee and in some other States, is not common law pleading, neither is it what is commonly designated code pleading. It is a modification of the common law, containing few, if any, of the objectionable features of that system. But the modification does not go to the ex tent of reducing it to the level of code pleading. The technicalities of the ancient forms are disregarded on the one hand, and the dangerous laxity of the code system avoided on the other. It occupies, as I conceive, the mid dle ground between the two, possessing the excellencies of both, the faults of neither. The difierences existing between it and the other two are the occasion of frequent comment and illustration in the book, which should be read to be fully appreciated.

Download or read book A History of Civil Litigation written by Frank J. Vandall and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A History of Civil Litigation: Political and Economic Perspectives, by Frank J. Vandall, studies the expansion of civil liability from 1466 to 1980, and the cessation of that growth in 1980. It evaluates the creation of tort causes of action during the period of 1400-1980. Re-evaluation and limitation of those developments from 1980, to the present, are specifically considered. The unique focus of the book is first, to argue that civil justice no longer rests on historic foundations, such as, precedent, fairness and impartiality, but has shifted to power and influence. Reform in the law (legislative, judicial, and regulatory) is today driven by financial interests, not precedent, not a neutral desire for fairness, and not to "make it better." It uses products, cases and policies for much of its argument. These policies can be summarized as a shift from a balanced playing field, negligence, to one that favors injured consumers. The strict liability foreshadowed by Judge Traynor, in Escola v. Coca Cola (1944), was not adopted until 1962, when Traynor wrote the majority opinion in Greenman v. Yuba Power Products for the California Supreme Court. Second, the book examines the role of persuasive non-governmental agencies, such as the American Law Institute, in reforming and shaping civil justice. Never has it been less true that we live under the rule of law. Congress, agencies and the courts make the law, but they are driven by those who have a large financial stake in the outcome. Today, those with power shape the character of products liability law, at every turn.

This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1866 edition. Excerpt: ...caused an alias execution to issue after a failure to return the original in due time. The non-return of the original fixes the Sheriff's liability, aud the attempt to make the money out of the defendant cannot be construed into a relinquishment of his right against the Sheriff. (Meigs' Dig., p. 946; 2 Swan, 442.) We have seen that the actual payment of the money by the defendant to the plaintiff, after the Sheriff's default, does not exonerate him. The fact that the plaintiff authorized him to return the execution to be renewed, has no other effect than to postpone the sale under that writ, and to obtain another. It is no legal excuse for his not returning it. (Beshears vs. Warner, 5 Sneed, 676.) FOR AN INSUFFICIENT RETURN. 485. We have seen in sec. 475 what is a sufficient return, and have given some instances of insufficient ones. There is to be observed a difference between a return which may indicate negligence in the Sheriff, and one which is insufficient. Thus an execution may issue and be delivered to him 30th June, returnable 13th September; and his return may show that it was levied 1st September, on goods. So great a lapse of time would indicate that he had not been sufficiently diligent in hunting for property. His return may show further, that when he did levy, at so late a day, he took a bond for the delivery of the property on the 13th, the return day of the writ, and the bond was then forfeited. This return is sufficient; it shows a levy on property in time to sell before the return day, and a reason why it was not sold, and the money made, that is, the forfeiture of the delivery bond. The Court cannot say that the Sheriff was guilty of negligence. He might have searched for property with all diligence, and not been able...

Download or read book History on Trial written by Deborah E. Lipstadt and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2006-04-04 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her acclaimed 1993 book Denying the Holocaust, Deborah Lipstadt called putative WWII historian David Irving "one of the most dangerous spokespersons for Holocaust denial." A prolific author of books on Nazi Germany who has claimed that more people died in Ted Kennedy's car at Chappaquiddick than in the gas chambers at Auschwitz, Irving responded by filing a libel lawsuit in the United Kingdom -- where the burden of proof lies on the defendant, not on the plaintiff. At stake were not only the reputations of two historians but the record of history itself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Americans have long been identified as a people of law and lawyers with an addiction to lawsuits. In Litigation Nation, Peter Charles Hoffer, one of America’s most preeminent legal historians, charts the history of civil litigation from the seventeenth century to the present, using key cases pursued by ordinary people to illustrate how the civil courts have been a battlefront to contest the boundaries of permissible personal conduct in times of social and political change. Using representative case studies from each period—from defamation suits in seventeenth-century America to recent civil rights and gender discrimination lawsuits, Hoffer’s concise and accessible history shows how litigation reflects the lives and values of ordinary Americans.
