Only monetary claims may be the subject of a Rule 167 offer. Lauren is seeking the court to impose a constructive trust (an equitable remedy) on 10% of future inspection sales generated by Hartford and State Farm. While this is an equitable remedy, the imposition of the constructive trust will result in monetary damages. The issue is whether this would classify as a monetary claim for rule 167 purposes? Under rule 167.2, “an offer must not include non-monetary claims and other claims to which this rule does not apply.” Secondary sources state that “offer to settle nonmonetary claims must be made separately from a Rule 167 offer.” In Longsdon, the court held that the defendant husband could make a rule 167 offer to settle the wife’s tort

    Informal Reading Response 5 Tadeusz Borowski’s This Way for the Gas, Ladies and Gentlemen is comparable to Primo Levi’s Survival in Auschwitz, since they both offer first-hand accounts of life inside of Auschwitz. Despite the obvious similarities between the two books, it is important to recognize and consider the differing perspectives offered by each author. The most apparent difference between Tadeusz Borowski and Primo Levi is that Borowski was a political prisoner in Auschwitz, while Levi was a Jew. This meant that they had markedly different experiences in the camp, since non-Jews were afforded special privileges and were not subject to the constant fear of being sent to the gas chambers.…

In the story This Way for the Gas, Ladies and Gentlemen by Tadeusz Borowski, it recounts the struggles Tadek faced when unloading the wagons of the train.

Nevertheless due to differentiation of interpretation of language and conduct, both potential outcomes must be analysed and then assessed which course of action would be most…
