Personal Injury: Medical Malpractice
We often have little choice but to trust a doctor or other health care provider. We can’t prescribe needed medications or perform procedures on ourselves. Not all injuries that happen in a hospital are the result of neglect but an attorney with proper training and experience can help to determine if there is neglect or other cause and if there is reason to sue for malpractice. Be sure to check a malpractice attorney’s background before you use them.
To The Victims Of Malpractice
Author: S. A. Baker
Are you a victim of malpractice? Perhaps you are not even sure if you are or aren't.
Strict Liability
Author: Evan Bailyn
One of the underlying precepts of criminal law is a Latin maxim that holds 'there can be no guilt without a guilty mind'.
Statute of Limitations
Author: Evan Bailyn
There was no statute of limitations in common law. It is a statutory creation and is not drawn from an individual's inherent rights but from "legislative grace."
Parties to a Crime
Author: Evan Bailyn
Common law gave broad definition to parties to a felony as follows:
• Principal in the first degree - he engaged in the felonious conduct;
• Principal in the second degree - he was present, aided and abetted its commission;
• Accessory before the fact - he was not present but aided and abetted prior to the commission of the felony;
• Accessory after the fact - he was not present but aided thereafter in order to protect the principal(s)
Omission or Inaction
Author: Evan Bailyn
Liability for most crimes is based on the performance of an act.
