The Travelers Indemnity Company v. American Alternative Insurance Corporation

Can corporations truly safeguard your privacy, or are we all at risk? Join us as we tackle this pressing question with Michael Mulligan from Mulligan Defence Lawyers. In one of the most startling cases in recent memory, we dissect how an employee at the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC) sold personal information, resulting in arson and shootings. You'll learn about the class-action lawsuit that followed and the judicial system's decision to award $15,000 per affected individual despite ICBC's efforts to minimize compensation. Plus, we dive into the unsettling case of a widow sued by the Royal Bank of Canada for her late husband's Visa bill despite having insurance meant to cover the debt, shedding light on the critical issue of consumer protection.Ever wondered why resolving disputes with neighbours often ends up in a legal quagmire? We'll explore this topic through the lens of a real-life tree dispute between neighbours, revealing the limitations of provincial court judges and the complexities of such cases. Michael Mulligan offers invaluable insights into why it's crucial to resolve conflicts amicably rather than dragging them through lengthy court battles. Whether it's about border trees or shared responsibilities, you'll gain a new perspective on managing minor conflicts without escalating them into costly legal entanglements.Follow this link for a transcript of the show and links to the cases discssed. 

M & T Farms v. Federal Crop Insurance Corporation

Discover the fate of legal independence in British Columbia as Michael Mulligan from Mulligan Defence Lawyers lends his expertise to the latest legal system 'modernization' attempts. This week's episode pulls back the curtain on the government's controversial plans to revamp the Law Society of British Columbia, including a reduction in elected lawyer positions, which may lead to increased government sway over legal affairs. The BCNDP seems intent on ignoring a warning from the Supreme Court of Canada on the essential nature of an autonomous legal profession, particularly when the rights of individuals stand against government interests, and is proposing that it be given greater control over the regulation of lawyers. The government proposal is troubling for anyone who may have a legal conflict with the government. Also on the show, we lay bare the troubling conduct of the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC) in defying a court order to pay a retired teacher her rightful compensation following a road mishap. Hear Michael's insightful breakdown of how ICBC's refusal to release $407,000, designated for the victim's future care, raises alarm bells about the insurer's integrity and the challenges faced in the pursuit of justice. With BC embracing a no-fault insurance scheme, our conversation underscores the imperative need for an unbridled judiciary to balance the scales against formidable entities like ICBC. This episode is an urgent call to stay vigilant about the mechanisms that safeguard our individual rights and the importance of a legal profession that can operate without undue influence.Follow this link for a transcript of the show and links to the cases discussed. 

When it comes to understanding the intricate legalities surrounding car accidents and insurance monopolies, there's no better guide than Michael Mulligan from Mulligan Defence Lawyers. In a revealing podcast episode, Mulligan elucidates murky financial arrangements at the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC), a Crown corporation with a grip on British Columbia's vehicle insurance.The episode delves into a class action certification that shines a light on ICBC's financial transactions. Allegedly, ICBC made payments to the BC government for medical expenses that were not mandated, essentially imposing an unsanctioned tax on the ratepayers. This raises profound questions about the government's use of Crown corporations for financial cosmetics and the impact these actions have on individuals involved in car accidents. Mulligan further explores the repercussions of these payments, including the potential inflation of insurance rates and the deprivation of benefits for at-fault drivers. The discussion extends to the monopoly ICBC holds and its complex involvement in the medical funding realm. Listeners gain insights into the implications of insurance monopolies, like ICBC, and the significant effects they have on both legal responsibility and the overall financial landscape for drivers in British Columbia.Shifting the focus to vehicle ownership and liability, the episode examines a perplexing case from Central Saanich that links back to a Victoria car dealership. Mulligan breaks down the legal entanglements resulting from a car dealership's aggressive sales tactics that led to a complicated court battle. This case study highlights the critical importance of understanding the nuanced legal definitions of ownership and permission, particularly in light of the evolving insurance systems, such as the move to a no-fault system.The podcast provides a valuable lesson in the importance of due diligence when lending vehicles, as well as the increased responsibility that accompanies it. This knowledge is increasingly relevant in the context of the changing landscape of car accident liability and insurance rates.Through the course of the podcast, listeners are equipped with the tools to navigate the precarious world of car accident liability and insurance. Mulligan's expertise offers a compelling examination of the hidden truths behind government payments, legal responsibilities on the road, and the influence of insurance monopolies.By the end of the episode, you are more informed about the dynamics of insurance, ownership, and responsibility. With Mulligan's legal acumen, the complexities of ICBC's financial entanglements and the subtleties of car accident liability are decoded, offering clarity and a wealth of knowledge to anyone looking to understand these significant issues.Follow this link for links to the cases discussed and a transcript of the show. 

Crop Insurer Can Recover Over payments from Farmer One of the maxims of farming is the imperative each year to risk the "up-front costs" of sowing in return for the never-guaranteed prospect of "back-end revenue" from reaping. The Federal Crop Insurance Act helps farmers to manage these uncertainties through a crop insurance system, which the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation oversees. Under this federal program, farmers can purchase insurance from the Insurance Corporation or from an approved insurance provider that the Insurance Corporation reinsures. In Edgar Miller v. United States Department Of Agriculture; Risk Management Agency; Federal Crop Insurance Corporation, No. 22-1209, United States Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit (January 3, 2023) the Sixth Circuit was asked to be the last word on a series of disputes over payments and over-payments of crop insurance claims. For years Edgar Miller purchased crop insurance, hoping to protect his farm from poor harvests. While the insurance for the most part served that purpose, it also brought him three federal lawsuits, an arbitration, and an adverse agency determination from the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation. Miller challenged this last decision-the agency's decision-under the Administrative Procedure Act. The district court rejected the challenge. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/barry-zalma/support

This week on rabble radio, we're bringing you an interview with long-time British Columbia politician Joy MacPhail. MacPhail is best known for her roles in BC politics - but there is much more to her story.  Many will remember her as Deputy Premier of British Columbia. MacPhail is a longtime member of the BC NDP, and member of the BC Legislative Assembly, representing Vancouver-Hastings. Over her ground-breaking, and at times controversial career - that began in the BC labour movement before being elected to politics - she served as Minister of Finance, Minister of Education, Minister of Heath, Minister of Social Services and Seniors, and more. Currently, MacPhail chairs the ICBC board (the Insurance Corporation of BC), and is an owner of OUTtv, the world's longest airing LGBTQ+ television network. She was appointed to the Order of Canada this past January where she was rec​​ognized for her “pioneering contributions to politics and for her tireless advocacy of underserved and marginalized communities”. MacPhail speaks to fellow politician and friend, Libby Davies. Davies is also a life long political activist and politician, but at the municipal and federal levels. She was a long time Vancouver city councilor and former Deputy Leader and House Leader of the federal NDP, representing the riding of Vancouver East from 1997 to 2015. Davies is also a member of the Order of Canada.  MacPhail reflects on a lifetime of experiences as a woman in Canadian politics. She recounts the gender-biased scrutiny she faced from the media, and shares what it was like trying to balance being a mother while breaking ground for women in politics. She also discusses how she maintains motivation for positive change to this day.   If you like the show please consider subscribing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you find your podcasts.

Recent announcements by the Attorney General of British Columbia (BC) and the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC) indicate a shift in direction for the Crown Corporation, one that will focus on the recovery of clients that include any driver, passenger or pedestrian injured in a motor vehicle collision. This shift includes significant increases in funding across the spectrum of available medical and rehabilitation benefits for clients and presents an opportunity for ICBC to re-examine service requirements, utilization of health care professionals and desired outcomes.

Sign up to our newsletter for more in-depth insights | Follow us on LinkedIn In today's conversation we are joined by Tracy Blackwell, CEO of the Pension Insurance Corporation (P.I.C.). Whilst this company may be below the radar screen for many, it is at the epicentre of an industry undergoing rapid transformation, and undertaking an essential investment activity that is critical to everyone; pensions. The historical importance of pensions is unchanged, from soldiers who served in the Roman armies who were guaranteed an income after they retired to employees in today's enterprises. Tracy initially describes her journey as a daughter of a single Mother, growing up in Illinois, then moving to Malaysia, then to Business school and from there to Goldman Sachs. She describes rising to head up risk at Goldman Sachs's asset management division, before her move to the Pension Insurance Corporation  Tracy takes us through an explanation of the fast-evolving £2 trillion market for private defined benefit pensions. She discusses the surprising fact that only four countries in the world have had such schemes and why companies and trustees increasingly recognise that managing the long term liabilities of their current and former employees' pensions requires different skills from running their core business. She illustrates the immense changes underway in the insuring and management of pensions, describes the key forces at work, and the investable assets that meet regulatory requirements. She also explains the need for regulatory changes and the less-discussed flexibility leaving the EU might offer in this regard. She provides a case study, Philips, as to how the process works, the asset allocation challenges in today's minimal yielding world, but why this vast pool of assets gives the UK an enormous opportunity to provide long-term financing for some of UK's infrastructure and housing needs. The discussion refers to the work carried out entitled “purpose of finance”, a thought piece found on their website, and the inter-generational transfer that this pool of assets offers in long-term financing. Finally, Tracy reflects on being an American in the UK, offers advice for young, and why her favourite film is Gone with the Wind.

LM Insurance Corporation v. Dubuque Barge and Fleeting Svc

Oral argument argued before the Eighth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals on or about 06/18/2020

There will be no rebates for BC drivers anytime soon. The Insurance Corporation of BC says the COVID-19 pandemic has thrown its budget projections and bottom-line number in disarray. The Minister responsible for ICBC says although the insurance corporation has saved millions of dollars in accident claims because there are fewer drivers on the road during the pandemic, the Insurance Corporation has lost hundreds of millions of dollars in investments in just the past seven weeks, with the plummeting of the stock market. David Eby says ICBC won't know until the summer, what its real year-end numbers are for 2020. ICBC had hoped to offer drivers a dividend or lower insurance premiums, this year, but the pandemic has put those plans on hold. He says drivers may see savings at the end of the 2021 fiscal year, but that will depend on whether investments do better and claims remain low.The Nanaimo Mayor's Task Force on Recovery and Resilience will hold its first meeting today. The 6 member group will provide strategic direction to council on how to best recover economically and culturally from the COVID-19 pandemic. Its recommendations will help guide the city's five year fiscal and strategic plans. Mayor Leonard Krog says the group will collaborate with public and private groups, along with community organizations. Its members include the President of Vancouver Island University, the chair of the Nanaimo Port Authority, the executive director of the local United Way, the CEO of the Snuneymuxw First Nation's Petroglyph Development Group and a senior director of Vancouver Island, MNP, an accounting and investment counselling firm. It's final report to council is expected this fall.The Premier is hoping his meeting with NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman earlier this week, will lead to BC becoming an NHL hub this year. John Horgan says BC can easily accommodate the number of arenas and hotel rooms needed for a "Hub City" The league is studying whether it can complete the 189 games left in the season by having teams travelling to four "hub cities" to play games without fans in a compressed timeline. Much depends on the rate of COVID-19 infections in cities and how long players would have to self-isolate. BC's Provincial Health Officer says she will not bend the rules, when it comes to a 14-day self-isolation for international travellers, even though she loves hockey. Dr. Bonnie Henry says she would have to see a very detailed plan from the NHL before making any decisions, and no plan has been presented yet. Other Canadian cities in the competition include Edmonton and Toronto.Written and reported by Lisa Cordasco. Senior Reporter and News Director for CHLY 101.7FM.Have a tip?

Mobile Money customers can rest easy as the Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation (NDIC) has included mobile money operators in its insurance coverage. Mr Ibrahim said the corporation provides insurance coverage for depositors of deposit money banks, non-interest banks and primary mortgage banks who will be reimbursed up to a maximum limit of N500,000 while microfinance bank depositors would be reimbursed up to a maximum limit of N200,000. The NDIC, whose function, according to the NDIC Act 2006, is to serve as an insurer of deposits for financial institutions so that in the event of failure, the depositors don’t lose all their savings, said the Central Bank licensed 23 Mobile Money Operators and as at June, the number of Mobile Money subscribers stood at over 9.2 million people. Meanwhile, the NDIC periodically reviews the insured limits through its board to ensure that the majority of depositors are covered. The establishment of the NDIC can be attributed to the renewed confidence of depositors in the quality of the Nigerian financial system.--- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/newscast-africa/support --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/newscast-africa/support Learn more about your ad choices.

In Canada, not all legal matters have to be proven beyond a reasonable doubt and it’s not just inside criminal courts where you have to apply a standard of proof test. Tribunals, civil proceedings and even governmental bodies like the Insurance Corporation of BC have to abide by standard of proof requirements. Lawyer Paul Doroshenko looks at how far these different matters must be proven. You can follow Paul Doroshenko on Twitter twitter.com/PaulDoroshenko If you have a legal matter that you need help with, you can reach Paul through Acumen Law at acumenlaw.ca/paul-doroshenko/ Or call at: 604-685-8889

Many times, injured people are not sure about whether or not it is worth it to hire a lawyer. They are often concerned about the cost. At Hemminger Law Group Westshore, it is our view that the best thing to do is meet with one of our lawyers and tell them about your claim. You and the lawyer will discuss whether or not it makes sense to hire a lawyer for your claim. ICBC does not want you to hire a lawyer. At the initial phases of your case, ICBC adjustors may be very friendly and cooperative. They are like this because it is part of their job. They do not work for you. They work for the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia. * ICBC wants to make sure that you do not seek legal advice. At least, in our experience, if clients have legal representation, they end up getting more money than if they did not hire a lawyer. Such is the case even when they take into account the legal fees they paid.  Of course, every claim is different. We cannot make any guarantees on your claim. At the same time, we have countless examples of where this has been the case.  Most injured parties do not have the funds to pay up front for the cost of really great legal representation. Because of this, most ICBC lawyers, including us at Hemminger Law Group Westshore, will act for you and wait until your claim has been resolved to get paid. We can structure our legal fees from the ultimate amount of money you receive on a percentage basis. We are motivated to get you as much money as possible for your injuries because the more money you get, the more money we make. It is simply good business. It is also good business for us to get as much money as possible for our clients because then they are happy and tell all their friends about how great their Langford ICBC lawyers were on their case. That is also good business.  ****************** More questions? Book your no-obligation consultation with Hemminger Law Group Westshore today: http://www.hemmingerlawgroup.com/
