The year 2021 proved to be another banner year for the plaintiffs bar in terms of securing  important civil litigation court decisions that favor plaintiffs’ causes, some of which overturned decades of precedent going the other way. The concerted, and admirable, effort of the plaintiffs bar in continually fighting their good fight and in banding together to support certain judicial candidates to ensure that they make it up onto the bench continues to pay off in spades and in settlements. In essence, as confirmed by the decisions reviewed below, where there is a will, there is indeed a way.

This first part of the article, which previously appeared in this paper, reviewed the important decisions and trends in the automobile insurance law arena over the past year. This second part of the article will review the notable decisions in the area of general civil litigation law.
