- court left open question of proper measure of damages where plaintiff had “earnestly attempted to procure substitute individual coverage and found insurance unavailable for a person of his age and health”
- to satisfy Rule 25(a)(1), motion for substitution or suggestion of death must be personally served on nonparty representative of deceased, rather than deceased’s attorney
- “[Rule 25] imposes no time limit for the substitution other than that commenced by proper service of a suggestion of death upon the record.”
- former employee’s claim that he had been terminated in violation of Age Discrimination in Employment Act [ADEA] survives his death as matter of Federal law
- “Because [substituted plaintiff] was never personally served, the 90-day substitution period never began . . . .”
- “Losses arising from a termination ought not to be artificially segregated from gains.”
