BuzzKill, any information on how the lawsuit filed by that firm in Los Angeles is doing?

I hear things.
If you know me, and want to call me, I can tell you what I've heard.

What's going on with this lawsuit?  How come we never hear anything about it?  Did more kids sign up?  What about a settlement????

I have the original complaint. It is legit, check with the L.A. Superior Court. For a nominal fee you can view the filing. This suit is for real. As for why more complainants aren't listed: This is a DIRECT ACTION SUIT. Not a CLASS ACTION. There may be more suits coming. Bushkin also said he plans to modify the complaint to include something like 60 more complainants.



Just my two cents. :wink:"


Bump

Any updates?  Was Layne a part of this direct action lawsuit and have other plaintiffs been added????

Layne was supposed to have been represented by Henry.

I don't know if Henry is taking new clients in this case or not; but I doubt it. If so, I would be interested in that.

Buzz, why don't you just call this attorney and ask? Attorneys do take phone calls.

Gosh, that is just so sad about Layne passing away at the young age of 24, and perhaps before his claim was settled.  For all he went through, jeez!  I would imagine his parents are part of the lawsuit though, painful as this must be for them.  My heart goes out to all the victims, children and parents alike.  Good luck to all of you!

The fee for a lot of litigation are based on a contingency. But they are still expensive out of pocket to the clients because expenses in a major trial can be high. I beclieve David Pollacks suit was dismissed on jurisdictional grounds. A lot of good suits will never get on board because the parents will be put on trial and investigated. They have potential liability and might be found negligent. Not a lawyer.

Well, I don't know why parents would be investigated, what for?  Trying to help their kid?

But I do agree with you BP that litigation of any kind is expensive, and for many, the gamble simply isn't worth it unless they are judgement proof, which most people aren't, especially parents who spent all their money on a program.
