2010-11-25
In 1995, the United States implemented mandatory alcohol testing programs for motor carriers. Commercial truck drivers with a blood-alcohol content of .04 or higher are subject to immediate suspension.
To date, the program had not been adequately evaluated, according to J.E. Brady and colleagues at Columbia University, who recently completed a study regarding this practice.

Since its inception in 1988, a doctrine known as "honest services" fraud has helped prosecutors send hundreds of public officials to jail on corruption charges. The doctrine came about when Congress rewrote mail and wire fraud statutes to specifically include schemes designed to "deprive another of the intangible right of honest services."
Simply stated, the law codifies a public official's duty of providing honest services to taxpayers. It also applies to the duty that corporate executives have to place the interests of company shareholders above their own. Traditionally, ...
Insurers Facing Suits Under No-Fault Provisions
2010-11-25
Those injured in Michigan car accidents know how difficult it is to deal with insurance companies. For those who have suffered serious injuries, the situation becomes even more complicated. Insurers will fight to keep from paying out large sums of money, even if a person is entitled to that compensation. Recent case law has changed the way insurance companies will be able to do business with those who have been injured, meaning that there are potentially millions of unpaid insurance claims throughout the state.
Michigan is a no-fault insurance state. This means that ...
