Causing Psychiatric and Emotional Harm

Schriften zum Bürgerlichen Recht

'The Assignment of Claims in the Residual Debt Discharge Procedure': This paper describes the development away from the originally clear separation of insolvency and residual debt discharge proceedings towards a merging of both proceedings through several legislative reforms. It examines the fate of pre-insolvency assignments and the legal nature of the assignment declaration under section 287 paragraph 2 sentence 1 InsO, particularly from a methodological perspective.

The Reference Handbook on the Homeowners Insurance Policy

The book examines the practice of judicial reasoning in Tort law, understood as a process of justification, consisting of both deductive and non-deductive elements, and therefore involving a significant element of choice or discretion. The book divides the elements of judicial reasoning into four conceptual categories: factual assessments, application of legislative and judge-made rules, reliance on reasonableness, and policy considerations. To discuss these elements in a comparative perspective the book uses the English and French judicial traditions of Tort law as case studies. This enables the author to present a range of methods of establishing facts, drawing inferences, using legal sources and relying on policy arguments. By closely examining selected Tort judgments from both jurisdictions, the book elucidates the phenomenon of law-making through adjudication in both a non-codified and a codified system of liability. It offers a reflection on different approaches legal systems may adopt to the importance in the process of judicial justification of such issues as certainty and truth, common sense, consistency with previous judicial decisions and policy.
The book connects the choice of approaches in judicial reasoning in Tort law with its procedural and institutional context.

Judicial Reasoning in Tort Law

Hart Studies in Private Law

This book engages with some of Stephen A Smith's most significant arguments, illustrating that he was a towering figure in the field of private law, with little of the field not impacted by his scholarship. The contributors explore Professor Smith's most controversial thinking on private law. Interrogating questions of contract law, remedies, unjust enrichment, comparative law, and the legal theory underlying these fields, this is an important publication in the field.

Essays in Honour of Stephen A Smith

Understanding Private Law

Clinical Negligence and Childbirth

Jus Privatum

Product liability is based on human error during production. However, artificial intelligence and autonomous systems are increasingly replacing influences of human control. Tobias Voigt sheds light on the comprehensive dogmatics of German liability law, its judicial development on tortious producer liability and the implementation of the European Product Liability Directive 85/374/EEC. He analyses the legal basis, grounds for liability and various procedural issues and, thus, shows that the existing liability system is open to development for new challenges posed by technical and scientific progress.

“As gripping and important as Patrick Radden Keefe’s Empire of Pain and Gardiner Harris’ No More Tears, The Pain Brokers is a righteous bolt of reportage worthy of acclaim.” —Booklist, starred review Selling the Dream meets Empire of Pain in this shocking, never-told-before story of three women caught in a web of telemarketing scammers, shady doctors, and profit-hungry lawyers who turned fears surrounding a faulty medical device affecting millions of women into a goldmine. For decades, late-night television has blared a familiar refrain: If you or a loved one has been injured by X product… But behind those ads lies a lesser-known world where elaborate scams revictimize the injured. Why else would thousands of women with health insurance take out loans with astronomical interest rates and fly to south Florida to have their pelvic mesh surgically removed at a chiropractor’s clinic? The Pain Brokers, by law professor Elizabeth Burch, is a “pulse-pounding legal thriller” (Eric Eyre, Pulitzer Prize winner) and damning investigation of a scheme made possible by a medical and legal complex that too often views women’s bodies as cash machines and fails to take their pain seriously. As Burch unfurls each level to the scheme, we meet an enthralling cast of characters, from a world class scam artist who reaped tens of millions of dollars at a south Florida call center, to the ultimate white shoe power lawyer who defended Big Pharma but became an unlikely hero, to a newly minted small-town Arkansas attorney who advocated for the unseen and unheard. But at the center are three women, Jerri, Barb, and Sharon, whose lives were upended by the very procedure they were told would save them. A page-turning, urgently necessary work of public service journalism, The Pain Brokers is not only a chilling exposé of a legal system gone awry, but a wake-up call to the ways in which it harms those it is meant to help.

The Pain Brokers

Anasseril E. Daniel, MD

Suicide is the leading cause of death in U.S. jails--and a major driver of costly, high-stakes litigation. In this practical and unflinching guide, psychiatrist and correctional expert Anasseril E. Daniel, MD, distills more than five decades of clinical experience and twenty-five years inside correctional systems to show how tragedies happen--and how to stop them. Drawing on forty real cases and fifteen landmark court decisions, Dr. Daniel explains the most common failures that lead to suicide and lawsuits: missed risk factors, unsafe housing, weak communication, and inadequate training. He introduces an innovative case law-based training approach that complements traditional methods to prepare staff for real-world risks. Actionable and deeply informed, When No One Is Watching is a call to protect lives, reduce liability, and create a culture of safety in corrections.

Preventing Suicide and Avoiding Lawsuits: Insights from a Correctional Expert of 25 Years

When No One Is Watching

As artificial intelligence (AI) systems become deeply embedded in corporate frameworks, responsibility and liability are increasingly strained. Automated models now influence hiring and risk management, often operating with a level of complexity that obscures clear lines of accountability. At the intersection of AI and corporate liability, questions arise over who bears responsibility when algorithmic systems cause harm. Rethinking responsibility requires reexamining ethical norms and governance structures to ensure that innovation does not outpace accountability in an era of intelligent automation. Rethinking Responsibility at the Intersection of AI and Corporate Liability explores the evolving landscape of business law as it responds to rapid technological advancement. It examines the legal frameworks that govern innovation and disruption. Covering topics such as AI, automation, and corporate liability, this book is an excellent resource for technology developers, business organizations, corporate organizations, policymakers, researchers, academicians, and graduate students.

Rethinking Responsibility at the Intersection of AI and Corporate Liability

This book brings together leading scholars from private law and employment law to reflect upon private law doctrines as they relate to the employment contract. Developing an interdisciplinary dialogue, these contributions explore the regulatory functions of private law doctrines at the cutting edge of modern employment law. Topics include the potential and limitations of private law damages; the role of injunctions and specific performance; the interactions between express and implied terms; vicarious liability; substantial performance and breach; and the common law right to work. The integration of scholarly perspectives from the realms of private law and employment law enriches and deepens our understanding of core private law doctrines. Historically, employment law was defined in terms of its autonomy from general private law. This achievement of autonomy was highly prized, and considered necessary to facilitate industrial freedoms for trade unions and the protection of employees from exploitation. But the contractual basis of employment means that any such autonomy has always been partial and unstable. Furthermore, as trade unions have declined and governments have deregulated statutory employment rights, private law has assumed growing practical importance in strategic appellate litigation. In many common law jurisdictions, private law doctrines have become the new battleground between employers, workers and trade unions. The essays in this book examine specific doctrinal issues against this dynamic backdrop of changing social, economic and constitutional conditions. While focused mainly on English law, the essays also consider examples from other jurisdictions including Australia and Scotland. As private law becomes the default regulation for most employment contracts in 21st-century labour markets across the world, this book is an essential resource for practitioners, judges, academics and students.

Private Law and the Employment Contract

This intriguing collection explores how tort law has evolved in the 21st century, as it responds to emerging social, industrial, and technological challenges. It examines topics with particular modern-day salience such as AI and negligence, and internet harassment and privacy. The contributors are recognised experts in their fields, and they bring a broader common law perspective to the question. This is an extremely important contribution to scholarship in the field.

Torts in the 21st Century

The lack of a social scientific foundation across the field of negligence means that social life and scientific knowledge are transformed and mutated by a negligence paradigm that is unable to fulfil the social purposes typically attributed to it. Analysing the extent to which the reparation ideal has polluted and confused attempts to find radical alternatives to negligence, this book argues for a critical separation between the issue of harm minimisation and reparation; a separation that, it is argued, provides the basis for a different policy approach to the human experience of injury, error and misfortune.
