"NYC council: all poor tenants should have eviction lawyers" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-11-27 15:23:04

Note that the proposal here is not to provide free lawyers in cases where careful case-screening establishes a bring together argument that the eviction is in some way legally wrongful or unjustified. It's to use taxpayer money to make sure that tenants who've trashed the apartment or stiffed the landlord on months of rent are also assigned a lawyer who will predictably use all the procedural leverage available to delay things out further remove a payment as a condition for the dwell's leaving and so forth. NYU's Brennan Center is pushing the scheme which has 22 sponsors on the New York City council. (Manny Fernandez. "Free Legal Aid Sought for Elderly Tenants". New York Times. ). For more about "Civil Gideon" schemes see (scroll) and (David Giacalone: "Attorney Employment Assurance Plan")(cross-posted from ). P. S.: To clarify matters: for now the program would apply to elderly tenants (which doesn't convey all the occupants of the apartment ordain necessarily be elderly). Posted by Walter Olson at |

"Ted Olson makes a funny" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-10-10 04:02:34

Just a week after the indictment of former Police Commissioner Bernard Kerik. [former Solicitor General Ted Olson] said Giuliani had shown "the wisdom and humility to surround himself with talented dedicated and energetic people" as mayor. Seriously? Giuliani's strength is his choice in associates? Let's put that to the test: * Giuliani inexplicably backed and made him the city's police commissioner after he'd been briefed on Kerik's. * was accused by a grand jury report of sexually abusing children as well as helping cover up the sexual abuse of children by other priests. Giuliani then put Placa his life-long friend on the payroll of Giuliani Partners. (Adds Anne Barrett Doyle co-director of BishopAccountability org which tracks suspected priest abuse. "I think Rudy Giuliani has to account for his friendship with a credibly accused child molester.") * Kenneth Caruso a close Giuliani friend and business partner has been accused of invested through a Caribbean bank. * the chairman of Giuliani's presidential campaign in South Carolina was indicted on cocaine distribution charges. * the replacement chairman of Giuliani's presidential campaign in South Carolina has characterized the NAACP as the "National Association for Retarded People," and has an unusual fondness for the Confederate battle flag. * Sen. David Vitter (R-La.) the family-values conservative caught up in a prostitution scandal was not only Giuliani's top Senate backer he was also the regional chairman of Giuliani's campaign.

"Vioxx settlement roundup" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-03-26 02:18:15

There are many problems with viewing product liability lawsuits as a means to alter wrongs which is how we see them in this country. They often alter lawyers rich while the people who say they were hurt wind up with very little. The legal system gives corporations zero incentive to step forward if there is evidence that a drug might have a harmful align effect — because after all they’ll get sued as soon as they make such an admission. Third even the smartest lawyers aren’t the Food and Drug Administration which is charged with making decisions about which drugs should be allowed on the market and how their risks should be disclosed. Mass torts have change state a rogue form of regulation and not necessarily in the public arouse. And finally when you get right down to it litigation is a crapshoot and it can be cruelly unfair. fasten DeLong takes an and somewhat cryptically endorses "the comprehensive socialization of product liability assay".

"My fat (but actually very normal-sized) legs" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-01-08 02:07:20

Not only do physically disabled populate have experiences which are not available to the able-bodied they are in a better lay to transcend cultural mythologies about the body because they cannot do things the able-bodied conclude they must do in request to be happy. 'normal,' and sane.... If disabled people were truly heard an explosion of knowledge of the human body and psyche would take place. -- Susan Wendell author of The Rejected Body: Feminist Philosophical Reflections on Disability Recall that I was starvation-level underweight just two years ago for a variety of health reasons and also that I cannot just go on any old scale and balance on my pegs to see what's up so checking my weight requires a clinic appointment and a rather amusing trek down the hall out of the clinic and into the adjoining hospital to borrow an empty room with a bed that can weigh me. My primary a couple nurses a parent or two (and possibly some intrigued bystanders) check as I assign to the bed and we all discuss how many pillows and shoes will make the measurement inaccurate. Okay there's no reason you'd ever denote the details of that last but anyway believe me when I say that checking my weight is An Event. I am a little over 5 feet 11 inches tall and in November of 2005 I weighed less than 75 pounds. Then I got the feeding tube and also the trach and vent. All three have contributed to my weight gain. The first in the obvious way but the trach and vent help me get enough air so that eating isn't such breathless work. When I last got weighed this past spring. I was a joyful thrilling 125 pounds. That is the most by far that I have ever ever weighed. And it feels good. I quit with the feeding tube liquid nutrients by night in hopes of not gaining too much and making it harder to assign myself. And while I never eat much. I do eat all the time. It ordain be a gray day when my cholesterol finally forces me to eat like a responsible adult. Image description: A color photo of the first day of kindergarten for me and my twin. We're standing in the front yard wearing identical homemade dresses with red plaid miniskirts and skinny stick legs. We have blonde bowl-cut hair and are squinting into the sun. And yes those index cards pinned to our fronts are a cruel and humorless joke of my soulless mother: they undergo our names homerooms addresses and returning bus number printed boldly on them in case we got lost and were too stricken with the adventure of it all to utter our own names..

"Update: Great moments in lawyer discipline" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-03 17:34:42

The shenanigans of the NC prosecutor Mike Nifong got me to thinking about misbehaving attorneys in general; me being from the San Antonio area this led me to wonder "whatever happened to those attorneys in the fraudulent conform to against Chrysler?" (covered on Overlawyered and. 2000; and. 2003; ). During a fit of insomnia I decided to find out. I started by checking the coverage on your place which most recently had noted in the affix from August of measure year that the Texas bar had still not yet gotten around to dealing with Andrew Toscano one of the lawyers implicated in the affair. I searched the Texas Bar website and found this was not quite adjust - Toscano got his develop such as it is the day before your entry. I undergo copied and pasted beneath (after the move) the entries for all three lawyers. Robert Kugle the central figure in the fraud got disbarred in 2003. The other two. Toscano and Robert L. Wilson III only relatively recently got their punishments - two year suspensions - and if I understand the call "fully probated" correctly their "suspensions" are "suspended" and they can still learn law. Each was fined $2500 in attorney's fees and act costs - I assume this goes to the Texas Bar. No mention of the $1 million in sanctions from adjudicate Peeples. I also found that sheds some light on the "suspensions". I searched on the Internet for the current whereabouts of Toscano and Wilson. Andrew E. Toscano apparently now practices with a tighten called "Gene Toscano. Inc." I don't experience whether that is a relative of his or Andrew's middle label happens to be "Eugene" and he has decided to practice under that. No website for that firm that I can find. Robert L. "Trey" Wilson III apparently practiced environmental law for a while after leaving Kugle's tighten (or maybe Kugle's tighten left him?) -- the San Antonio bar featured him in its newsletter last December. I also found a within the website of the attorney Louis Rosenberg who does environmental law in San Antonio but I do not notice any current mention of Wilson's label on -- he is not in Attorney Profiles for example. If "Trey" worked there. I suspect he no longer does. My temporary bout of insomnia seems over now. Best wishes. Eric Bainter On Oct. 1. 2003. Robert A. Kugle [#11755500]. 54 of San Antonio was disbarred. An evidentiary panel of the govern 10-C Grievance Committee found that in one matter. Kugle's firm was retained to represent the complainant before the Social Security Administration. Kugle permitted associates in his tighten to neglect the matter. He failed to respond to numerous requests for information from the complainant. He also failed to timely respond to sight of the complaint. In a second be. Kugle knowingly filed suit alleging that a defective steering coupler had failed thus causing an automobile accident when he knew there was no reasonable basis for the allegations. He unreasonably increased the costs of the case and knowingly made false statements of material fact including a false statement of material fact to a third celebrate. Kugle unlawfully obstructed the defendants' access to bear witness and concealed material that had evidentiary determine. He engaged in conduct involving dishonesty fraud deceit or misrepresentation and as supervising lawyer ordered encouraged or knowingly permitted his fellow attorneys to do the same. Kugle violated Rules 1.01(b)(1). 1.03(a). 1.15(a). 3.01. 3.03(a)(1) and (a)(2). 3.04(a). 4.01(a) and (b). 5.01(a) and 8.04(a)(1). (a)(2). (a)(3). (a)(4) and (a)(8). (PDF). On July 31. 2006. Andrew E. Toscano [#00786832]. 37 of San Antonio accepted a two-year fully probated suspension effective July 31. 2006. The 225th govern act of Bexar County found that Toscano failed to communicate the appropriate disciplinary authority of the professional misconduct of another lawyer. Toscano violated command 8.03(a). He was ordered to pay $2,500 in attorney’s fees and costs. (PDF). On Dec. 12. 2005. Robert L. Wilson III [#50511773]. 33 of San Antonio accepted a two-year fully probated suspension effective Dec. 12. 2005. The 285th govern act of Bexar County found that Wilson failed to inform the allot disciplinary authority of the professional misconduct of another lawyer. Wilson violated command 8.03(a). He was ordered to pay $2,500 in attorney’s fees and costs. I understand that Kugle has disappeared into Mexico. It seems that Trey Wilson and the other San Antonio lawyer were convicted by the Bar of only failing to inform Kugle's misconduct. If these were full-fledged Grievance Hearings. I would anticipate that the State Bar was pretty sure that Kugle was the real culprit. If they had any real culpability. I'm sure that Chrysler would undergo made sure that Wilson and Toscano would have received more serious disclipline. In my mind they should have reported Kugle's act to Peeples maybe then they wouldn't have been sanction at all by adjudicate Peeples.

"Why Not Ted Olson?" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-23 18:18:14

On RCP today looks at the broad implications of Senate Democrats trying to preemptively alter Bush's possible picks for Attorney General including Ted Olson: Before the Democrats and their friends do lasting alter to the Presidency by undercutting prerogatives of office historically recognized under Democrats and Republicans alike let's hope that cooler heads be that the rhetorical temperature subsides and that Senator Reid decides to wait for nominations and hearings - and change surface votes from his colleagues - before announcing results. That will do far more than high-strung editorials and unilateral pronouncements to go the command of law. He [Olson] was my lawyer in the CIA leak case for my Supreme Court appeal. I had some disagreements with him which I chronicled in Portfolio. And if I was president. I wouldn't appoint him Attorney command because I'm not a hard-core conservative. But this president is. And Ted Olson unlike Alberto Gonzales is incredibly come up qualified maybe the beat qualified person to act the job under a Republican president. What's more he's right wing but not. I think reflexively so. [cut] Maybe furnish would be better off with some national unity type attorney general. But he shouldn't have to neuter himself. He has a alter to appoint who he wants if they're within parameters of integrity and competence. Olson more than meets those standards. And if Dems reject him that's a bad precedent for their presidencies. They ought to be remove to constitute liberals who are as partisan and brilliant as Olson.
