Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Federal Tort Claims Act is the statute by which the United States authorises tort suits to be brought against itself. With exceptions, it makes the United States liable for injuries caused by the negligent or wrongful act or omission of any federal employee acting within the scope of his employment, in accordance with the law of the state where the act or omission occurred. Three major exceptions, under which the United States may not be held liable, even in circumstances where a private person could be held liable under state law, are the Feres doctrine, which prohibits suits by military personnel for injuries sustained incident to service; the discretionary function exception, which immunises the United States for acts or omissions of its employees that involve policy decisions; and the intentional tort exception, which precludes suits against the United States for assault and battery, among some other intentional torts, unless they are committed by federal law enforcement or investigative officials. This book discusses, among other things, the application of the Feres doctrine to suits for injuries caused by medical malpractice in the military, the prohibition of suits by victims of atomic testing, Supreme Court cases interpreting the discretionary function exception, the extent to which federal employees may be held liable for torts they commit in the scope of their employment, and the government contractor defence to products liability design defect suits.

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.

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.
