Описание: The development of private law across the common law world is typically portrayed as a series of incremental steps, each one delivered as a result of judges dealing with marginally different factual circumstances presented to them for determination. This is said to be the common law method. According to this process, change might be assumed to be gradual, almost imperceptible. If this were true, however, then even Darwinian-style evolution-death of the dinosaurs or development of flight-would seem unlikely in the law, and radical and revolutionary paradigms shifts perhaps impossible. And yet the history of the common law is to the contrary. The legal landscape is littered with quite remarkable revolutionary and evolutionary changes in the shape of the common law. The essays in this volume explore some of the highlights in this fascinating revolutionary and evolutionary development of the common law. The authors expose the nature of the changes undergone and their significance for the future direction of travel. They identify the circumstances and the contexts which might have provided an impetus for these significant changes. The essays range across all areas of private law, including contract, tort, unjust enrichment, and property. No area has been immune from development. That fact itself is unsurprising, but an extended examination of the particular circumstances and contexts which delivered some of private law's most important developments has its own special significance for what it might indicate about the shape, and the shaping, of private law regimes in the future.

Lord Justice Jackson's retirement in March 2018 concluded a career of almost 20 years on the bench. His judicial career has seen a remarkable transformation of construction law, construction law litigation and the litigation landscape more generally. Drawing the Threads Together is a Festschrift which considers many of the important developments in these areas during the Jackson era.
The Festschrift discusses most of the leading construction cases decided by Lord Justice Jackson, with subject matter including statutory adjudication, fitness for purpose obligations, consideration, delays and extensions of time, liquidated damages, time bar provisions, the prevention principle, neighbour rights, limitation clauses, negligence, good faith, bonds and guarantees and concurrent duties of care. It also includes a discussion of the background to the Jackson Review of Civil Litigation Costs (2009-2010) and its impact on litigation, as well as considering the development of the Technology and Construction Court during and subsequent to Mr Justice Jackson's tenure as judge in charge of that court.

Описание: Now available in paperback 2013 was the 50th anniversary of the House of Lords' landmark decision in Hedley Byrne v Heller. This international collection of essays brings together leading experts from five of the most important jurisdictions in which the case has been received (the United Kingdom, the United States, New Zealand, Canada, and Australia) to reappraise its implications from a number of complementary perspectives: historical, theoretical, conceptual, doctrinal, and comparative. The book explores modern developments in the law of misstatement in each of the jurisdictions; it examines the case's profound effects on the conceptual apparatus of the law of negligence more generally; it explores the intersections between misstatement liabilities in contract, tort, equity, and under statutory consumer protection provisions; and it critically assesses the ways in which advisor liabilities have come to be limited and distributed under systems of 'joint and several' and 'proportionate' liability respectively. Inspired by Hedley Byrne, the purpose of this collection is to reflect on the case's echoes, effects and analogues throughout private law, and to provide a platform for thinking about the ways in which liabilities for misstatement and pure economic loss should be modeled in the modern day.

Описание:
"The first thing we do, let's pay all the lawyers."--William Shakespeare
Patrick A. Peters ("Pap") and his twin brother Prescott U. Peters ("Pup") are lawyers with a distinctive eye for opportunity. Pap convinces Pup who is a good lawyer despite having gone to Yale Law School that they should leave their respective big-firm practices in New York City to start up a hopefully lucrative practice as plaintiffs' class action lawyers.
The brothers meet a variety of clients, judges, and lawyers as they embark on a resourceful and unique approach to lawyer-client relationships all inspired by actual court cases.
Written with humor and parlance that only comes from a depth of legal experience, Morrison captures the trials and tribulations of human behavior that strikes a chord with every reader.

Описание: The focus of the essays in this book is on the relationship between compensation culture, social values and tort damages for personal injuries. A central concern of the public and political perception of personal injuries claims is the high cost of tort claims to society, reflected in insurance premiums, often accompanied by an assumption that tort law and practice is flawed and improperly raising such costs. The aims of this collection are to first clarify the relationship between tort damages for personal injuries and the social values that the law seeks to reflect and to balance, then to critically assess tort reforms, including both proposals for reform and actual implemented reforms, in light of how they advance or hinder those values. Reforms of substantive and procedural law in respect of personal injury damages are analysed, with perspectives from England and Wales, Canada, Australia, Ireland and continental Europe. The essays offer valuable insights to anyone interested in the reform of tort law or the tort process in respect of personal injuries.

Описание:
Hear these words. They were commissioned by you, for you You know, you are solely responsible to seek your salvation. You also know everything is of your choosing. Choose to LIVE your life in the light or choose EVIL and dwell in the darkness. The darkness of hate is self-consuming while the love of light makes all things possible. Seek truth in all you do and think and be kind one to another.
These short stories depict every day individuals living their lives in common ways. They are conditioned, comfortable, and consumed with a unique value of self. They are oblivious to true happiness, humility, and a fulfilled life. They are blinded by self and do not recognize what they do. Ask that your eyes be opened and that your heart be softened. Pay attention to your acts and thoughts. You will learn about yourself, becoming aware of your virtues or lack thereof. A virtuous life is not only joyful, it fulfills your wants and needs.
Judging these individuals or their actions as they migrate through life is not our purpose. Our purpose is to recognize their missteps, become aware of our own missteps, and seek reconciliation.
