PART III (25 Minutes) The fоllоwing three questiоns/stаtements аre intended to invite comments, by wаy of correction, amplification, explanation, criticism, etc. Comment on one. A. "Paleontologists and geologists inform us that the Earth's Cretaceous period (including in what is present day Maryland) ended approximately 65 million years ago with an asteroid striking Earth....wiping-out, in a relatively short period of geologic time, most plant and animal species, including dinosaurs. As to the last premise, they are wrong. A dinosaur roams yet the landscape of Maryland (and Virginia, Alabama, North Carolina, and the District of Columbia), feeding on the claims of persons injured by the negligence of another, but who contributed proximately in some way to the occasion of his or her injuries, however slight their culpability. The name of that dinosaur is the doctrine of contributory negligence. With the force of a modern asteroid strike, this Court should render, in the present case, this dinosaur extinct." [p.s. I know I broke the long quotation rule here]. Judge Glenn T. Harrell, Jr. B. "The courts in both Waube and in Johnson v. Jamaica Hospital, say that they are following Judge Cardozo's approach in Palsgraf in ruling against plaintiff's claim. They cite the right case, but the wrong opinion. It is hardly clear that Judge Cardozo's foreseeability approach necessarily leads to dismissal in either of those cases. Judge Andrew's approach, which emphasizes flexibility, 'practical politics' and the admitted need to draw lines no matter how uncomfortably arbitrary they might seem, is far more useful in deciding the kinds of problems that arise in those cases, and, for a court that wishes to closely cabin the emotional harm torts, more useful than Cardozo's expansively fluid approach. Someone, not Professor Kostritsky C. In Eckert Judge Grover of the New York Court of Appeals states that the “law has so high a regard for human life that it will not impute negligence to an effort to preserve it” unless that effort is rash or reckless, and he holds that the jury was warranted in finding Eckert free from negligence. He further states that if Eckert had rushed onto the railroad tracks under like circumstances to save property instead of a child “his conduct would have been grossly negligent, and no recovery could have been had.” Judge Grover seems to have gotten it right. After all, nearly thirty years later the same Court stated in Sullivan v. Dunham, “the safety of the person is more sacred than the safety of property….” But consider: “Doesn’t the squashy sentimentality of some people about human life make you want to puke? ... Oh, bring me a basin.” Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Letter to Dean John Wigmore, 1917 (D) "Few notions anywhere in the law are more vague than the fundamental concept of the law of negligence: the duty of reasonable care. This is because few are more closely linked with prevailing community standards of conduct." Portee v. Jaffee
