Last Clear Chance
The common-law doctrine of last clear chance has been abolished
in Hawaii. Rapoza v. Parnell, 83 Haw. 78, 924 P.2d 572 (Haw.
App. 1996). If it survives at all, it is simply one
consideration to be examined in determining comparative
negligence.

In some jurisdictions, courts require a defense medical examiner to produce tax returns as a prerequisite to allowing the witness to testify against an injured claimant. See, eg, Noffke v. Perez, Sup. Ct. of Alaska No. S-12185, 2008 Westlaw 746972 (Alaska, March 21, 2008). This requirement exists because large amounts of income from insurance companies shown on the doctor's 1099's and tax returns shows a reason for bias. Unfortunately, the Hawaii courts and the LIRAB have consistently failed to provide even this minimal protection against often highly biased defense medical examiners purchased by insurance companies. A change of course is needed.
