Judge H. Dickson Corbett

Judge H. Dickson Corbett died unexpectedly on July 2nd after walking in the woods and making breakfast. A remembrance ceremony will be held later this summer, and he is survived by his wife, children, parents, siblings, and extended family.

The Vermont Supreme Court ruled that Green Mountain Power was not liable for injuries suffered by a child who entered a locked substation with warning signs in 2013. The decision upheld precedents protecting landowners from liability involving trespassers, stating the child's entry despite visible warnings and locks negated negligence claims.
