Cavanaugh, 2005 Jack Landskroner, 2005 Numerous laws have recently passed which substantially alter Ohio’s common and statutory Laurel A. Matthews, 2005 tort law, including the following: Dean Nieding, 2005 Stephen T. Keefe, 2004 Stephen S. Vanek, 2004 HB 412 - Nursing Home Liability - Effective 11/07/02 Toby J. Hirshman, 2003 SB 106 - Expanded Governmental Immunity - Effective 4/9/03 Ellen M. McCarthy, 2003 SB 120 - Joint and Several Liability - Effective 4/9/03 Dennis P. Mulvihill, 2003 Francis E. Sweeney, Jr, 2003 SB 179 - Peer Review/Negligent Credentialing - Effective 4/9/03 Donna Taylor-Kolis, 2003 SB 227 - Workers’ Compensation Subrogation - Effective 4/9/03 SB 281 - Medical Malpractice Liability - Effective 4/11/03 A full assault on Ohio’s tort system is underway. Not coincidentally, this occurred right after our last Supreme Court election. I hope everyone now sees the importance of these elections and becoming involved in the political process. To battle these new bills in the courts, please educate yourself by attending seminars. Please do not assume you can wait until the new bills become effective before you decide to analyze them. You must learn these laws now since they will affect your practice; and you must know how to challenge them. This Newsletter contains articles by Toby Hirshman, Ellen McCarthy, Mark Barbour and Ken Knabe summarizing some of these new bills.

AN ALTERNATIVE EXPLANATION FOR NO-FAULT'S "DEMISE" Nora Freeman Engstrom* INTRODUCTION Rumor has it that in 1896 there were only four motor vehicles in all of the United States and two, improbably, collided, thus ushering in the era of auto accidents on American soil-a problem that plagues us still.' Automobiles are central to the American way of life, "per- mit[ing] an impatient people to conquer space and time." 2 Yet, as many of us know too well, they sometimes collide, and when they do, the cumulative toll they take is breathtaking. Since the time of that first auto accident, nearly 3.5 million Americans have perished, and today, auto collisions injure 2.5 million Americans per year, constitute the leading cause of death for those from age five to thirty-four, and kill roughly 35,000 Americans annually.3 Their practical influence on tort law is unparalleled, accounting for the majority of all injury claims and three-quarters of all injury damage payouts.4 And their economic cost is substantial, accounting for expenditures of $255 billion annu- * Assistant Professor, Stanford Law School.

  • THE HISTORY of the INTERNATIONAL ACADEMY of TRIAL LAWYERS by Craig Spangenberg
    THE HISTORY OF THE INTERNATIONAL ACADEMY OF TRIAL LAWYERS By Craig Spangenberg BOSTON, 1954 CONCEPTION The time was September 1, 1954. The place was the Statler Hotel in Boston. The occasion was the annual convention of NACCA, the National Association of Claimants Compensation Attorneys. The void to be filled by the International Academy of Trial Lawyers was the need for an exclusive society to honor the exceptional best of the leaders of the trial bar, regardless of the member's favorite side of the civil or criminal case trial table. The originator of the idea, in the sense of being the first man to put his thoughts into words, was Albert Averbach. He broached the subject to Perry Nichols at a luncheon break and received instant approval. Averbach, a notable lecturer and author, was more the quiet scholor as between those two men. Nichols was far more political, a potent mover and shaker. At once he sought out his friend, Gerald Finley, who had a talent for organizing. This nucleus of three spent the afternoon making up a list of NACCA luminaries who were congenial, who could give prestige to the new society, and who were present in the hotel for the convention. This select group was invited to attend a meeting that same evening to discuss and expand the Academy idea. They all accepted. THE FOUNDING FATHERS Those men, the founding fathers, deserve special recognition in the recorded history of the Academy. They are here listed, in alphabetical order: George Allen, Sr. of Virginia Albert Averbach of upstate New York Melvin Belli of California H.
