Does the collateral source rule apply to unemployment compensation benefits from a state fund supported by a tax on employers?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Kauffman v. Sidereal Corp., 695 F.2d 343 (9th Cir. 1983):
2 In Gullet Gin, as here, the plaintiff received unemployment pay from a state fund supported by a tax on employers. We, therefore, have no occasion to decide today whether the collateral source rule would be equally applicable to unemployment compensation benefits funded directly by the plaintiff's employer. See Naton v. Bank of California, 649 F.2d 691, 699-700 (9th Cir. 1981) discussed in note 1 supra.
