WEIRD LAWS AROUND THE WORLD

In San Salvador, drunk drivers can be punished by death before a firing squad.

 


It is an act of treason to place a postage stamp bearing the British monarch upside down.

Sky News: 'OFT dropping bank charges case'

Debitcard The OFT is dropping the bank charges case after last month's surprise defeat in the Supreme Court, Sky News is reporting, citing unnamed sources.

 



The competition regulator is due to make an announcement on its next move at 7am tomorrow. An OFT spokesman said it would not comment in advance, despite Sky News's report.

If the OFT does drop the case, it won't be popular with consumer groups. Martin Lewis of MoneySavingExpert .com, one of the most vocal of those that have championed the case, said ahead of the announcement:

We believe the only option for the OFT, in its consumer champion role, is to keep up the fight. If the OFT pulls out, it'll be a terrible day for justice.

The banks' deep pockets, filled to a great extent with taxpayers' money, have priced out many consumers from fighting unjust charges. The only real solution is for an institution like the OFT to battle the banks.

Settling a Personal Injury Claim
By Jonathan L Walker

A personal injury amount that is eventually settled upon, is the amount that an individual is awarded in the event of a court deciding that another party is responsible for that persons injury. The amount awarded is dependent on the extent of the damage. Should the case not go to court, then the amount decided will be based on what the insurance company and your legal representative, think would be the sum decided upon by a jury in a court.

The claim quantity is determined by various things, such as the severity of injury, and also the financial losses incurred, due to the injury. Other things considered are the integrity of evidence and the extent of damage overall. It is then a case of the insurance adjuster and your representative discussing an approximate amount with you. A personal injury representative is going to be wise to how much the case is worth, as they would have had prior experience.

As aforementioned, the amount that is settled on for the personal injury will be dependent on the seriousness of the injury, but it is also down to the time that a victim was receiving treatment for, the amount of permanent tissue damage, the amount of work that has been missed, the amount of pay lost, the effect on the victims lifestyle, and loss of ability to work. These sort of cases fluctuate greatly in terms of how much compensation is given. In some cases it can be under a thousand pounds. In others it can be millions.

The person or party at fault during the occurrence of the injury is something that can cause fluctuation in terms of the settlement amount. People are often intrigued as to how much they will receive, but am amount can only be offered, once the adjuster and your representative has predicted the quantity that a court would decide upon. This is usually decided upon, subsequently to reviewing witness accounts and overall testimony strength. It is in the best interest for you legal representative to get you the highest amount of settlement as possible, as this has an effect on the amount that your representative receives.

Apple not to blame for hearing loss from playing iPods too loud, says judge

Music fans who damage their hearing by cranking up the volume on their iPods cannot blame Apple after a US appeals court ruled that users are responsible for listening to music too loudly.

The judgment is yet more good news for Apple, whose shares hit a record high ahead of the rumoured launch of its "tablet" computer this month with more details leaking out.

Judge David Thompson upheld a 2008 ruling that the iPod was not directly responsible for hearing loss despite users being able to listen to music at a potentially dangerous 115 decibels. He said that the two claimants did not prove that hearing loss was "actual or imminent" when using an iPod.

The complaint was initially filed by Joseph Birdsong in Louisiana before another complainant, Bruce Waggoner, joined the suit. They had argued that the iPod's earphones were designed to be placed in the ear canal rather than over the ears, increasing the prospect of hearing loss, and that the device lacked any noise-isolating or cancelling properties.

However, the judge said that all the plaintiffs had proved was that iPod users could use the device in a risky way if they chose to, effectively placing the burden of responsibility for any hearing loss on consumers.

Apple has sold 220 million iPods since 2001.

Meanwhile, rumours about Apple's tablet, thought to be called the iSlate, were further stoked after Kai-Fu Lee, a former Apple employee and former president of Google China, published details of it on his blog.

He said that Apple expected to ship 10 million tablets in the first year of its release. The device, which is said to combine the functions of a netbook computer with an e-book reader such as Amazon's Kindle, will have a 10.1 inch touchscreen and sell for less that $1,000 (£616) according to the translated version of Mr Lee's blog, which praised the device's interface.

Apple shares hit a record high this week on hopes that the device, which Apple has been working on for several years under the supervision of Steve Jobs, the chief executive, will prove the latest technology sensation for the company.

Apple has gone from strength to strength in recent years with its popular iPod and iPhone.

Edwin Coe launches appeal on behalf of beer drinkers

Beer Edwin Coe — typically known for class actions — has been instructed by the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) to appeal against a decision by the OFT not to investigate beer prices.

CAMRA, which lobbies on behalf of independent pubs and brewers, asked the competition watchdog to review beer tie arrangements, which it claims prevent certain publicans from buying beer on the open market. It argues that wholesale prices paid by tied publicans are around £20,000 per year higher for an average pub than they could get on a competitive market. That, it says, leads to higher prices for consumers.

On October 22, the OFT declined to investigate the matter, prompting CAMRA's appeal to the Competition Appeal Tribunal, which was filed today.

It has instructed David Greene at Edwin Coe to lead the appeal. "The challenge goes to the core of the process of a super complaint and OFT's handling of it," Greene says. "There are many unresolved issues that will have to be considered by the Competition Appeal Tribunal."
