About the Author
Ernest Abbott is Of Counsel to Baker, Donelson, Bearman, Caldwell & Berkowitz, leading its Disaster Recovery Group. He is also an adjunct professor in disaster law at the George Washington University Law School. Prior to joining Baker Donelson, Mr. Abbott practiced federal disaster and flood insurance law from his own firm, FEMA Law Associates, PLLC. He served as general counsel of the Federal Emergency Management Agency from 1997–2001.
Mr. Abbott has extensive experience with the laws, regulations, policies, and procedures relating to eligibility for federal disaster and mitigation assistance; the coordination of federal, state, local, nonprofit, and private sector responders in catastrophic events; and the elements of the National Flood Insurance Program, including insurance, floodplain mapping, and floodplain management. Mr. Abbott is well versed in the administrative appeals process under FEMA's Public Assistance program, and he regularly represents applicants for public assistance in the arbitration.
Otto J. Hetzel is a practicing attorney in Washington, D.C. with a legal and consulting practice with private sector and local government entities primarily with respect to matters arising with federal agencies over administration of federal programs. He is also a professor of law emeritus, Wayne State University Law School, with over 20 years of teaching experience. He has broad policy-level experience in federal, state, and local government, and has focused on reforming the inter-governmental relationships and conflicts inherent in current governmental funding delivery systems. Formerly a deputy attorney general of the State of California and associate general counsel at the U.S. Department of Housing Development, he also has served as special counsel to a number of local government entities. He also played an active role in civil rights matters, helping draft and enact the 1968 Fair Housing law and frequently provides training on civil rights issues.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to BooksRun, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
