A poorly trained, seventy-five-year-old driver illegally parked his big-rig tractor-trailer on the side of the highway. On a pitch black November morning, a family SUV slammed into and under the rear of the parked truck. The father/driver and one son, sitting behind him, were killed on impact. Two other young children exited through a rear window.The mother was trapped in the front passenger seat, and a fire began under the hood of the car. The two surviving children alternately tried to extricate their mother and tried to flag down passing vehicles. Their mother was slowly incinerated as she called her son to help her.The defendant trucking company refused to pay the paltry One Million Dollar policy, forcing a trial. Attorney Brian Brandt took on the case.Brandt went to trial, representing Kylie, the nine-year-old sole survivor, as well as the interests of Blaine, the other original survivor. The jury awarded One-Hundred-Forty Million Dollars, plus interest and costs. It was and remains the largest wrongful-death verdict amount in the history of California. The case was not over, however, as the trial judge made a stunning decision, leaving much more to be told.

Vi tog bussen ud til Body House, jeg gik til aerobic, på showholdet, og han løftede vægte. Jeg vidste godt, han tog steroider, jeg så nålen, og jeg så hans muskler og næse vokse unaturligt. Det var ikke derfor, vi stoppede med at komme sammen. Det gjorde vi bare. Det gled ud, og han var sammen med en af mine veninder. Lige så stille stoppede vi med at træne sammen, vi gik heller ikke i solcentret. Jeg blev bleg, og han blev marineinfanterist på Bornholm.” Marie Louise Tüxen debuterede i Hvedekorn i 2013. Hun har lavet natradio på Radio24syv og skriver satire for WulffMorgenthaler. Hun er oprindelig fra Næstved, men nu bosat i København. Dette er hendes debutroman.

Im Jahre 2013 wurde in 22 Abs. 3 PStG klargestellt, dass der Personenstand von Intersexuellen ohne Angabe der Geschlechtszugehorigkeit in das Geburtenregister eingetragen werden kann.

Der Vortrag analysiert die Frage, ob ein drittes Geschlecht anzuerkennen ist oder auf das Geschlecht als Kategorie des Familienrechts ganz verzichtet werden sollte.

This book is an essential guide on surrogacy, discussing various legal issues that arise in surrogacy cases. It provides a comprehensive coverage to various issues pertaining to surrogacy arrangements due to failure to meet the needs of those involved in surrogacy, be it the intended parents or the surrogate mother, with special emphasis on the most vulnerable party -- the surrogate child. In the wake of this existing imbalance, the call to reform the practice of surrogacy has also increased. The book provides a comprehensive coverage to various laws and policy regulations in existence dealing with surrogacy, and unravels the latest trends and developments happening around the world as surrogacy gains importance. The international perspectives highlight policies and practices being adopted and followed by various nations with regard to surrogacy regulation and associated parenthood rules. This book also analyses some of the significant cross-border disputes revolving around surrogacy, and explores briefly the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights on matters of parentage and citizenship for children born of trans-national surrogacy with special reference to the prospects of a convention on international surrogacy currently being studied by The Hague Conference on Private International Law. Further, it highlights the issues and questions relating to surrogacy arrangements that are so far unresolved and unanswered and suggests measures for improvements to the existing proposed surrogacy legislation in India and need for uniform international regulation. The book is a great resource for legal practitioners, academics, students, policy-makers, infertility clinics, and charitable organizations working on this issue.

The enactment of the Divorce Reform Act 1969 was a landmark moment in family law. Coming into force in 1971, it had a significant impact on legal practice and was followed by a dramatic increase in divorce rates, reflecting changes in social attitudes. This new interdisciplinary collection explores the background to the 1969 Act and its influence on law and society. Bringing together scholars from law, sociology, history, demography, and film and literature, it reflects on the changes to divorce law and practice over the past 50 years, and the changing impact of divorce on different people in society, particularly women. As such, it offers a 'biography' of this important piece of legislation, moving from its conception and birth, through its reception and development, to its imminent demise. Looking to the future, and to the new law introduced by the Divorce, Dissolution and Separation Act 2020, this collection suggests ways for evaluating what makes a 'good' divorce law.This brilliant collection gives insight not only into this crucial piece of legislation, but also into a key period of societal change.

In einer erstmaligen Gesamtdarstellung widmet sich dieses Buch der Frage, ob und gegebenenfalls inwieweit es zulässig ist, Kinder als Spender von Körperbestandteilen heranzuziehen oder sogar eigens zu diesem Zweck zu zeugen. Den Ausgangspunkt bildet dabei das Spannungsverhältnis, dass die Kinder zwar zunächst den Befugnissen der Eltern unterstehen, diese jedoch die kindlichen Interessen nicht unberücksichtigt lassen dürfen und elterliche Entscheidungsbefugnisse überdies mit Heranwachsen des Kindes zunehmend in den Hintergrund treten müssen. Die je nach Spendekonstellation unterschiedlich intensiven Eingriffe in die kindlichen Rechte, aber auch die verschiedenen Abstufungen eines möglichen Nutzens für das Spenderkind werden herausgearbeitet und mit Blick auf ihre medizinischen, ethischen und rechtlichen Implikationen analysiert. Zudem wird geprüft, ob in Deutschland derzeit eine widerspruchsfreie Rechtslage hinsichtlich der Erlaubnis respektive des Verbots einzelner Spendeformen durch Kinder existiert oder Handlungs- bzw. Harmonisierungsbedarf besteht. Die untersuchten Rechtsgebiete erstrecken sich vom Medizin- über das Zivil-, hier insbesondere das Familienrecht, bis hin zum Verfassungsrecht; der thematische Bogen reicht dabei von Neugeborenen bis Jugendlichen, Eigen- bis Fremdspenden, Blut- bis Organspenden und schließlich bis hin zur höchst umstrittenen Selektion sog. ¿Retterkinder¿ mittels PID.
