New letters to the editor

by Walter Olson on December 7, 2003

We’ve posted another batch of letters to the editor, including one from David Giacalone commenting on the recent case in which a Washington state jury hit the state with $8.8 million in damages for not preventing an assault by youths in foster care; a note from an Ontario barrister pointing out that both Canada and Great Britain maintain specialized commercial courts, a trend that is spreading in this country as well; letters on Fox v. Franken and on malpractice insurers’ investments; and, last but certainly not least, a humdinger of a letter from someone who is really, really upset that anyone would have the temerity to write the sorts of things we publish in this space (”Are you even a lawyer?”, he demands to know).
