The summary Judgment Weapon

In a lawsuit to recover for personal injury suffered in a motor vehicle accident, sometimes liability is clear cut. When I represent a client in a lawsuit claiming injury because a car rear-ended his or her vehicle, or because the other car ran a stop sign, I usually file papers with the court, known as a “motion,” seeking “summary judgment.” This means that I am asking the judge to direct a favorable verdict for my client based just on the papers submitted, without need for a jury trial.

Winning such a motion saves considerable time and expense later, makes a case far easier to settle, and even starts statutory interest running on the eventual judgment against the defendant. However, winning a summary motion still leaves for a jury trial the determination of how much money the injured person’s injuries are worth, and even to determine if the injured person breaches New York State’s No-Fault “serious injury” threshold. (For more on this, see my free book, *Warning! Things That Can Destroy Your New York Accident Case [And The Insurance Companies Already Know These Things].)

A second benefit of making a summary judgment motion on the issue of liability is that it forces the defendant driver to set forth his or her version of the accident in writing, sworn to under oath. This saves time and money for my client as it makes an oral deposition of the defendant-driver unnecessary – because we learn from defendant’s papers the defense position about the happening of the accident. We do not have to chase after the other side to force the driver to give a deposition, and we save the expense of utilizing a court reporter to transcribe the driver’s oral deposition testimony. There are also occasions where the driver does not put in a sworn statement (or affidavit) and, under New York case law, that is an automatic win for my accident victim’s summary judgment motion.

Third and finally, even if the defendant-driver does put in papers and defeats the summary judgment motion, without a deposition he or she must still come to court to testify at a liability trial. Under certain circumstances if a driver can’t be found (maybe he or she has moved away) or dies, the deposition testimony could be used as trial evidence against my client. Without that deposition the absence of the driver from trial pretty much guarantees my personal injury client a win; an additional benefit of making a summary judgment motion and getting the other side’s story on paper.

120 Banned Books $19.95 Throughout history, nations, peoples, and governments have censored writers and their works on political, religious, sexual, and social grounds. Although the literary merit of the majority of these books has been proven time and time again, censorship efforts are still in place today. From Animal Farm to The Grapes of Wrath, The Koran to The Talmud, Ulysses to the Harry Potter series, The Canterbury Tales to The Bell Jar, this revised edition examines the many struggles these books faced in order to be read. Tracing the censorship histories of 120 works from across the world, 120 Banned Books, Second Edition provides a summary of each work, its censorship history, and suggestions for further reading. Many new titles have been added to reflect some of the controversies in recent years, and updates have been made to existing entries on such classic books as Huckleberry Finn and To Kill a Mockingbird.

Summary Justice $130 This is a study of the practice of judicial summing-up to juries, and of the language of persuasion and rhetoric in the English criminal process. The book examines those statements normally occurring in criminal courts, but also in the High Court, in defamation trials and in "civil liberty" torts in the county courts. The text of these summaries can vary in length, and are significant in that they break the flow between advocates' turn-taking – especially their final speeches. In addition to its linguistic concerns, the book considers the practice of summing-up as a legal problem – as unrecognized advocacy – and examines alternatives, such as the North American and Scottish minimalist legal model, and a reformed summing up of patterned structure.
