The Washington Post reported today that “The Senate Environment and Public Works Committee will unveil a bill Wednesday that aims for a 20 percent reduction in U.S. greenhouse gas emissions from 2005 levels by the year 2020” The House bill, authored by Reps. Henry Waxman (D-Calif.) and Edward J. Markey (D-Mass.), would mandate cutting emissions 17 percent by 2020. Both measures would require an 83 percent reduction in greenhouse gases from the 2005 baseline by 2050.

Rear End Crash Denied Summary Judgment
In Borowski v. Ptak, (4th Dept. June 2013), a 3-2 decision, the Fourth Department upheld the lower Court’s denial of a summary judgement motion for defendant.
This rear-end crash was a little different than most cases. In this case the Plaintiff was the party that rear-ended the defendant.
