  • Just One Month of Amtrak Actions
    Volume 1 Issue 5 May 2018 JUST ONE MONTH OF AMTRAK ACTIONS • March 20- Effective March 20, Amtrak cancellation fees increased dramatically. Amtrak also cut back year-round discounts, eliminated the former 10 percent discounts for AAA and AARP members, and cut the senior discount from 15 percent to 10 percent. • March 26 – Amtrak discontinued discounts for military Veterans. The "Veterans Advantage" discount on Amtrak tickets for travel and on weekend Acela service was ended after 17 years. The decision to eliminate the program was part of Amtrak's decision to end its involvement with private company membership clubs. • March 28 - Amtrak issued a notice to employees: “Generally, Amtrak will no longer operate charter services or special trains.” • March 29 - Amtrak personnel began denying moves by private cars located on route midpoints with less than 30 minutes dwell time. This limits the locations where private cars can be added or removed from trains. • April 18 – Amtrak issued formal restrictions on private cars which contains a list of Amtrak- served locations eligible for adding or removing Private Cars from designated Amtrak trains, subject to operating conditions at the time of the requested movement. The policy also limits maintenance performed by Amtrak on Private Cars to FRA-required repairs of safety appliances, • April 18 - Rates were increased 12.4% on all services to private cars despite a long standing rate addendum agreement “The rates in this Addendum will be adjusted annually based on the AAR Quarterly Index of Charge-Out Prices and Wage Rates (Table No. C), using the 4th Quarter United States, “Materials prices, wage rates and supplements combined (excl.

Lowerre Follow this and additional works at: https://scholar.smu.edu/smulr Recommended Citation Jack Pope & William G. Lowerre, Revised Rule 227 - A Better Special Verdict System for Texas, 27 SW L.J. 577 (1973) https://scholar.smu.edu/smulr/vol27/iss4/1 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by the Law Journals at SMU Scholar. It has been accepted for inclusion in SMU Law Review by an authorized administrator of SMU Scholar. For more information, please visit http://digitalrepository.smu.edu. REVISED RULE 277-A BETTER SPECIAL VERDICT SYSTEM FOR TEXAS by Jack Pope* and William G. Lowerre** THE Texas Supreme Court's revision of rule 2771 which became effective September 1, 1973, marks the first major change in the manner for the submission of jury issues since 1913.2 Hopefully the burdens on jurors, prac- titioners, and the courts will be lightened by the change. The effective date for the revised rule coincided with the effective date for the adoption of comparative negligence3 in Texas, and the two reforms should simplify tri- als in a great number of cases. This Article is written with two purposes in mind: (1) to explain the probable nature of the changes in the practice which will flow from the revision, and (2) to discourage the importation of former practices, especially in the area of negligence law, into the new system. The revised rule commences: In all jury cases the court may submit said cause upon special issues without request of either party, and, upon request of either party, shall submit the cause upon special issues controlling the disposition of the case that are raised by the written pleadings and the evidence in the case, except that, for good cause subject to review or on agree- ment of the parties, the court may submit the same on a general charge.4 The quoted portion of the rule means that the special verdict will be the dominant mode of jury submission in Texas.
