Judicial Fairness

The TIDA Judicial Fairness Committee’s mission is to provide a forum to educate TIDA members and the transportation industry in general on the various states’ legal systems, laws, and venue specific issues that impact the defense of a motor carrier in various judicial forums in the United States. Specifically, our goal is to:

1. Search for transportation verdicts that represent both unreasonable and reasonable decisions and seek to understand what led to these verdicts;
2. Monitor new appellate rulings and legislative tort reform efforts and publicizing both to our membership and the transportation industry;
3. Analyze opportunities that might be available to assist the industry in developing laws that would achieve fair verdicts in all civil courtrooms throughout the country.
