Title A name given to the resource Department of Justice Emails Description An account of the resource The Department of Justice received more than 11,000 e-mails in response to the agency's public solicitation for comments upon its plans to distribute the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund of 2001 established by Congress to benefit the victims of September 11 and their families. These e-mails have been organized here by date. September 11 Email September 11 Email: Body The basic content, as unstructured text; sometimes containing a signature block at the end. Thursday, January 03, 2002 2:14 PM Effect on state workers' compensation awards Dear Mr. Zwick - I previously submitted a detailed article on the possible deliterious effect of a claimant accepting an award from the victims fund on their right to receive New York workers' compensation benefits. I was gratified to see that this submission was acknowledged in the printed comments. I want to again urge you to include in the regulations language that clarifies the effect of state workers' compensation benefits, whether they will be considered a colleteral source, and whether the workers' compensation insurance carrier will be in a position to claim a lien under NY Work. Comp. Law section 29. I believe if the regulations state cleartly that the victims fund benefits are not to be considered as either wage replacement benefits or medical benefits, and if the regulations clearly states that they are intended to be in addition to workers' compensation benefits, and finally if they state that the intention is to not require the claimant to seek consent to settle from the workers' compensation carrier, then the problem I have identified would largely be eliminated. Again, thank you for your consideration.
