  • Trends and Issues in Personal Injury Litigation1
    IRISH JUDICIAL STUDIES JOURNAL 107 TRENDS AND ISSUES IN PERSONAL INJURY LITIGATION1 Abstract: In this article the emerging trends in the trial and conduct of Personal Injury litigation in Ireland is examined. This will be through analysis of the role of the judge in these cases and an exploration of developments in statute and case law, with a particular focus on false and exaggerated claims and on s. 26 of the Civil Liability Act and Courts Act 2004. There is also a focus on debates surrounding damages and costs in this area. Authors: Ms Justice Bronagh O’Hanlon, Chloe O’Reilly, and Niall Williams The Role of the Judge in Personal Injury Litigation Posner has written that ‘the main purpose of the Separation of Powers is, in economic terms, to prevent the monopolisation of the coercive power of the State …’ 2 A key question when examining issues in this area is the role the legislative and judicial branches of state should have with regard to personal injury. The importance of an independent judiciary cannot be overstated – and accordingly this has been given great significance in our laws. Per Article 35.2° of the Constitution, ‘All judges shall be independent in the exercise of their judicial functions and subject only to this Constitution and the law’. Every person appointed to be a judge must take the oath set out in Article 34.6.1° of the Constitution the wording of which includes the phrase ‘without fear or favour, affection or ill-will towards any man, and that I will uphold the Constitution and the laws’.

The papers provide a significant source for the history of the development of the party and its policies through the comprehensive series of press statements issued over many years. In January 1977 during the annual Sinn Féin Árd Fheis members voted for a name change and the party became known as Sinn Féin the Workers’ Party. A concerted effort was made in the late 1970s to increase the profile and political representation of the party. In 1979 Tomás MacGiolla won a seat in Ballyfermot in the local elections in Dublin. Two years later in 1981 the party saw its first success at national level with the election of Joe Sherlock in Cork East as the party’s first TD. In 1982 Sherlock, Paddy Gallagher and Proinsias de Rossa all won seats in the general election. In 1981 the Árd Fheis voted in favour of another name change to the Workers’ Party.

This right implies also a duty: one must not conceal any part of what one has recognized to be true. It is evident that any restriction on academic freedom acts in such a way as to hamper the dissemination of knowledge among the people and thereby impedes national judgment and action”. Albert Einstein As Officer in Charge of Defence Forces Public Relations Branch, it gives me great pleasure to be involved in the publication of the Defence Forces Review for 2016. This year’s ‘Review’ continues the tradition of past editions in providing a focus for intellectual debate within the wider Defence Community on matters of professional interest.

  • Justice, 2016
    05 Justice - Black_Admin 65-1 08/02/2017 15:54 Page 35 Administration, vol. 65, no. 1 (2017), pp. 35–48 doi: 10.1515/admin-2017-0005 Justice, 2016 Lynsey Black Sutherland School of Law, University College Dublin The year opened with the escalation of an ongoing, violent feud on the streets of Dublin. On 5 February a 33-year-old man, David Byrne, was shot dead at a Dublin hotel. On 8 February another man, 59-year-old Eddie Hutch Snr, was shot dead at his home. These killings were the first in a year in which ‘gangland’ crime again became a familiar term in political and media discourse. Following the shootings, the Depart - ment of Justice and Equality sought to offer a ramped-up security presence in Dublin city centre through the establishment of saturation policing, which involved rolling checkpoints and patrols. Measures continued to be introduced throughout the year to adequately resource Gardaí to respond to these threats. In December, for example, a new Garda Armed Support Unit was announced for the Dublin area. Following the upheavals within the Department of Justice and Equality in 2014, the post of secretary general was finally filled in 2016. Noel Waters, who had held the position of acting secretary general since Brian Purcell’s departure in 2014, was appointed to the permanent role. Related to the tumultuous events of 2014 also, the O’Higgins Commission report was released in May. This report dealt with Garda failures in Cavan and Monaghan, which came to light following allegations by Sergeant Maurice McCabe.
