roger baronとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Professor Roger Baron, an ERISA Subrogation and Reimbursement Expert, has been teaching at the University of South Dakota School of Law since 1990. He has become a recognized advocate for the rights of ERISA participants and beneficiaries in connection with the aggressive pursuit of ERISA reimbursement (subrogation) claims which came into vogue in the 1990s. ERISA reimbursement claims are filed by ERISA plans and their insurers, seeking a return of money spent on medical claims paid as part of health insurance coverage. These claims are pursued on a “first dollar priority” basis and often consume the all or most of tort recovery secured by the ERISA participant/beneficiary, leaving the person penniless. Professor Baron is a 1976 graduate of the University of Missouri at Columbia School of Law. He practiced law in Missouri for nine years before beginning his teaching career at South Texas College of Law in 1985. He is licensed to practice law in Missouri, Texas and South Dakota. His writings on ERISA Reimbursement and subrogation have been cited in written opinions by Federal Courts in Nebraska, Illinois, New Jersey, and Washington. In addition to the subjects of Subrogation and ERISA Reimbursement, Professor Baron has also authored numerous other law review articles on the topics of Insurance, Civil Procedure and Family Law. Professor Baron’s other non-ERISA law review articles have been cited and quoted with approval by state supreme courts and appellate courts in Alabama, Arkansas, California, Michigan, Missouri, New Jersey, North Carolina, North Dakota, Puerto Rico, South Dakota, Texas, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. Professor Baron was named the recipient of the John Wesley Jackson Outstanding Faculty Award in 1995 and again in 2008. This is an award given to a law professor at the University of South Dakota who demonstrates excellence in teaching.
