That's because the law incentivizes citizens with a cash "bounty" if they succeed in suing anyone who has helped a person get an illegal abortion. Texas inspired Idaho and Oklahoma to follow suit with this type of enforcement mechanism.

Doctors and abortion providers, drivers who provide transportation to a clinic, or those who help fund an abortion, for example, could all be liable to incur legal fees if they are sued. People who receive an abortion cannot be sued under the law.

Participants receive informative handouts and the latest edition of the popular publication Especially for Texas Employers which address basic legal issues regarding hiring, post-employment and work-separation policies.

Neither the conference nor the Office of the Commissioner Representing Employers handles inquires about COBRA, HIPAA, ERISA or other similar insurance or retirement/pension topics. The conference also does not address labor unions or collective bargaining issues. Because all of the aforementioned topics are highly technical, they do not lend themselves to the high volume of business done in our office. If you have problems or questions in these areas, we strongly recommend that you hire private legal counsel to assist you.

Texas Law offers an unbeatable set of student-run journals. They publish important scholarship about the legal system, and everything they print is selected or written by their student members. Involvement with a journal gives you a chance to take your writing skills to another level. It also provides a credential that employers value highly. We have more journals than most other schools, which means more opportunities for our students. Here is an overview that provides a sense of the interest and variety of these remarkable publications:

The U.S. legal system is based on the assumption of the general availability of appellate review. Judges are fallible, and appellate review is critical both as a check on judicial mistake and bias and as a mechanism for ensuring consistency among lower courts. Appellate review does not generically benefit any party to litigation, but if there is an advantage or bias for one party in lower courts, then the absence of meaningful appellate review locks in that advantage.

Consider a $100 million unsecured bond issuance at a time when investors could reinvest their funds and get a 3% risk-free return. If an appeal takes a year to resolve, it will cost those bondholders $3 million to take the appeal, even if they are successful. Additionally, the American Rule on fees means that they will pay their own costs, irrespective of outcome. This means that the bondholders will not rationally pursue the appeal that they believe will take a year to resolve if their expected gain is less than $3 million plus legal costs. The lack of compensation for time-value serves as a substantial disincentive for litigation in bankruptcy.

Purdue Pharma Inc. is an unusual general partner, as it has no equity interest in Purdue Pharma L.P. or any of the subsidiaries.[228] Instead, it receives a service fee for serving as general partner. This is an arrangement permitted by Delaware law despite being the very antithesis of a partnership interest.[229] While legally a general partner under Delaware law, Purdue Pharma Inc. is nothing more than a contractor for Purdue Pharma L.P.

While there is no legal minimum age for babysitting in Texas, it is generally recommended by medical professionals that babysitters be no younger than 11.

The appointment of an examiner in a chapter 11 case is rare. The role of an examiner is generally more limited than that of a trustee. The examiner is authorized to perform the investigatory functions of the trustee and is required to file a statement of any investigation conducted. If ordered to do so by the court, however, an examiner may carry out any other duties of a trustee that the court orders the debtor in possession not to perform. 11 U.S.C. § 1106. Each court has the authority to determine the duties of an examiner in each particular case. In some cases, the examiner may file a plan of reorganization, negotiate or help the parties negotiate, or review the debtor's schedules to determine whether some of the claims are improperly categorized. Sometimes, the examiner may be directed to determine if objections to any proofs of claim should be filed or whether causes of action have sufficient merit so that further legal action should be taken. The examiner may not subsequently serve as a trustee in the case. 11 U.S.C. § 321.

The Bankruptcy Code permits applications for fees to be made by certain professionals during the case. Thus, a trustee, a debtor's attorney, or any professional person appointed by the court may apply to the court at intervals of 120 days for interim compensation and reimbursement payments. In very large cases with extensive legal work, the court may permit more frequent applications. Although professional fees may be paid if authorized by the court, the debtor cannot make payments to professional creditors on prepetition obligations, i.e., obligations which arose before the filing of the bankruptcy petition. The ordinary expenses of the ongoing business, however, continue to be paid.

Under section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, an entire class of claims is deemed to accept a plan if the plan is accepted by creditors that hold at least two-thirds in amount and more than one-half in number of the allowed claims in the class. Under section 1129(a)(10), if there are impaired classes of claims, the court cannot confirm a plan unless it has been accepted by at least one class of non-insiders who hold impaired claims (i.e., claims that are not going to be paid completely or in which some legal, equitable, or contractual right is altered). Moreover, under section 1126(f), holders of unimpaired claims are deemed to have accepted the plan.
