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. Monday, January 14, 2002 1:22 PM (no subject) The proposed rules concerning reduction of payments on account of life insurance pensions etc. should be modified.Rather than a single national rule, the effect thereof for each victim should be determined based on his domicile or else his primary place of employment, and the law of collateral benefits for that situs should apply. Most victims let the state of their domicile or employment control their daily personal and financial actions, and it can be presumed that if, for example, a victim bought a life insurance policy, he expected that the situs of employment/domicile would apply its collateral benefits rule in the event of a tort causing death. It would be inequitable for a single rule to apply. The result would be that for most victims in the airplanes, the collateral benefits rule for their home state or state of employment would apply. For most victims on the ground, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Maryland or Virginia law would apply.
