Do People Settle Disputes Out of Court An Afterwar View
The Inquiring Reporter asks five people if litigation has grown versus the past. George Gaass says settlements out of court have increased when possible. Jacob Plender believes people are similar to the past but courts are crowded and many cases settle for financial reasons. G Van Vliet notes more litigation with auto era yet many minor cases settle out of court. Dick C Van Zante attributes change to broader business growth and aims for friendly settlements. T. H. Klein argues that settlements are urged and legal advice often leads to out of court resolution, though postwar inflation drives some cases to litigation.
