The Medical Malpractice Insurance "Crisis"
An study of a comprehensive database of closed claims maintained by the Texas Department of Insurance since 1988 shows that the medical malpractice insurance "crisis" was the result of insurance companies' investments going south, not "lawsuit abuse."
I guess all those changes to the Texas Constitution letting negligent health care providers (and others) off the hook for a lot of the damage they do isn't going to fix things after all. Who'd of thunk it?
And on a related note, congratulations to Priscilla Owen on the confirmation of her appointment to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals.

thank you for your prompt response.
Look at you go with two blogs and links and all that. Wang, the blog master.
By the way, can you do me a favor and explain here at The Lawyer's Drudge what's going on in Washington regarding asbestos litigation and how it affects Texas? And, more importantly, how it will affect this poor little asbestos law firm paralegal. And, even more importantly, how it will affect this poor little asbestos law firm paralegal's upcoming summer bonus.
