Abstract

This chapter focuses on law reform. I argue that courts are more likely to reach wise decisions if they begin with a rebuttable presumption that a plaintiff suing a deceptive intimate will have the same causes of action available to her that she would have when suing an equivalently deceptive nonintimate. I also explore how to improve the legal regulation of intimate deception before plaintiffs file suit. The law now adds to the tremendous incentives that can exist to deceive an intimate, but legislatures and courts should instead work to counter such incentives. The law often helps people succeed in duping their intimates and taking advantage of them, but legislators and judges should instead look for opportunities to thwart deceivers. In short, legal reforms designed to better recognize, prevent, and remediate harms inflicted through intimate deception should reorient the judicial response to litigation and also extend beyond courtrooms.
待完成的工作
这一章的重点是法律改革。我认为,如果法院一开始就有一个可反驳的假设,即原告起诉具有欺骗性的亲密关系时,她将拥有与起诉同样具有欺骗性的非亲密关系时相同的诉讼理由,那么法院更有可能做出明智的决定。本文还探讨了如何完善原告提起诉讼前的亲密欺骗行为的法律规制。这项法律增加了可能存在的欺骗亲密伴侣的巨大动机,但立法机构和法院应该努力对抗这种动机。法律经常帮助人们成功地欺骗他们的密友并利用他们,但立法者和法官应该寻找机会挫败骗子。简而言之,旨在更好地识别、预防和补救由亲密欺骗造成的伤害的法律改革应该重新调整司法对诉讼的反应,并延伸到法庭之外。
